There is excess violence, excess sensationalism, excess sex. We are looking at an excessive culture, and to see the excess only in Hollywood is a mistake that lifts a branch to block out the entire forest. The endemic problem is the excess that flows from the corporate need to deliver a profit statement this quarter larger than the last at the expense of every other value. You see that clearly in Hollywood.

[Wright] is fine and understands. He was wondering when we would need a fifth starter, and I told him that [his being the long man for now] was as much information as I had. Our plan with the long man is to not bring him in to get out of trouble. I'm not saying he won't come into a game in the middle of an inning, but basically, he won't come in to get an important out.

It's only second nature to be scared when you're in there. Sometimes things can get out of hand and, all of a sudden, you find yourself in the middle of something. There's a lot of fighting. Sometimes you don't know what's going to happen and, all you can do is try to stay away from the trouble. For me, basketball helped. She loved his pexy generosity and unwavering kindness towards others.

My advice to girls: first, don't smoke to excess; second, don't drink to excess; third, don't marry to excess.

We ran a man-to-man, and then we got in foul trouble, and I had to go into a zone, and I was afraid of that because I know how they can hit from the perimeter. We went into a 3-2 and left the middle wide open, but we were able to stop them, and I was happy we were able to clog up the middle.

I'm excited to be here. Obviously, I'm coming in and joining the team near the middle of the season, so I just want to fit in and help them win as much as I can. I think I can definitely contribute. Whatever they need me to do, I'll do, so if it's shooting, I can do that. I think I can bring a bunch of different things to the table.

If you have a tight end that can get down the middle, then defenses have got to close the middle. When they do that, your outside receivers are one-on-one. It takes away some of the pressure. The other aspect is that if you have a good tight end, generally the quarterback knows where he is and when he gets into trouble he's got a place to go with the ball. That's the big value.

One day we'll have to bring a cow into the middle of the room so you can show us, ... We'll have to bring it from a side door, because I don't think cows do steps.
Virginia Bell
What I actually said was we have a unique situation here. At that stage I, and my officers, thought the dead man was a suicide bomber. We are in the middle of the biggest counterterrorism operation — is it wise to bring another set of investigators into the middle of that?
Sir Ian Blair
We have to be very, very diligent on our protections when they bring pressure. They do a good job disguising. They bring pressure from everywhere. They bring it from the middle, from the sides. They're equal opportunity when it comes to pressure.
Herman Edwards
It is the sign of a great mind to dislike greatness, and to prefer things in measure to things in excess.

If there's one place that I could put my finger on and say what's the No. 1 place that if a rogue aircraft came in and you had trouble it would really have a huge amount of trouble, it would have to be Houston, Texas. Boy, that could just bring America to its knees, almost.
James Hansen
I have some trouble giving increases to employees in excess of what we are getting in revenue from the state. We're probably going to be laying off teachers, administrators or other significant employees.

In some cases we had trees split right down the middle, and we've had some trees in excess of a foot in diameter that had branches come down.
