For every megawatt of Entergy New Orleans transmission, we avoided about half our purchased power costs.
Joe Domino
The families coming up here will be people who want to escape New Orleans and other Gulf Coast areas permanently.
Jack Allen
Take bananas -- 25 percent of Chiquita bananas come through New Orleans.
Jonathan Daniels
I still have a house in New Orleans. It costs anywhere between $50 and $60 to fill up -- somewhere in that neighborhood.
Patrick Turner
To them it wasn't a race issue, but their poverty that got them. It wasn't the hurricane that wiped out New Orleans, but the flooding caused when the levy broke, and the poor were in the bottom of the bowl.
Sandy Richardson
We knew about the weak infrastructure in New Orleans, we knew about the weak ability of the administration of New Orleans to deal with this.
John Gannon
They are fanning out across the country having these so-called outreach meetings because they know they have suffered a giant PR disaster with the way they have handled the minority community in New Orleans.
Paul Berendt
We were looking forward to a great, beautiful fall in New Orleans.
Roselyn Lionheart
Where do you stage? Where do you go? You have to have communications, you have to have electricity, you have to have dry ground. These are all things that have to exist, and these are all things that don't exist in New Orleans.
James Carafano
Since the hurricanes, a lot of new minority businesses that had to evacuate New Orleans have set up offices here. Once they settle here, we want to do everything we can to keep them here.
Trey Thibodeaux
A terror attack in New Orleans . . . would have yielded exactly the same results. You wouldn't have had the wind, but you would have had the flooding, and you would have had the loss of life.
John Gannon
What we are hoping for is a repeat of last week, just go in and get ourselves a win against Louisiana-Lafayette and get ourselves focused, so we can go down to New Orleans and get a win.
Rick Insell
New Orleans is ruined, it will never be what it was again, ... I shed tears when I think about it. It seems hopeless.
Charles Harper
New Orleans is just a doggone fun place to be.
Archie Manning
New Orleans lost the battle with the inevitable, and we will suffer the same fate in some form here in California.
Jeffrey Mount
It was the last United Airlines flight out before they closed down operations at the New Orleans International Airport.
Mark Dawson
It's one of America's food capitals. New Orleans gave us a sense that there could be a regional American food style.
Clark Wolf
But I think a new, greater New Orleans may be for the better. This might make it so they get rid of some of the bad parts.
Shawna Graham
In both areas it seemed like there were not enough resources to deal with the damage. In New Iberia, neglect was the main problem. In New Orleans, it was disorganization.
Laura Simocko
We're the fortunate ones, ... Those poor people in New Orleans are the ones who are suffering.
Tim Watson
Harrison County seemed to make the most sense. Mississippi wasn't getting the attention New Orleans and other places were.
Tom Matthews
Until the water is pumped out and until we can test the sludge and everything, we really don't know what the livability aspects are going to be, ... And that is probably going to be another two months just to get the water out of New Orleans.
Jean Kelly
The Port of New Orleans alone imports 250,000 tons of coffee every year.
Mark Zandi
Obviously, New Orleans wasn?t expecting the catastrophe that befell them.
Mike Curry
There will be a Jazz Fest in 2006. It will be as close to New Orleans as we can get it.
Quint Davis
This is the worst thing ever to hit New Orleans.
Jim Williams
We're a few miles out of New Orleans, about the distance from Lima to Columbus Grove. It's not far, but every mile counts when you're talking about flooding.
Shawna Graham
The conversation of race is something that is not only relevant to the situation in New Orleans but our everyday life.
Marissa Davis
In New Orleans, people live for food and it's going to be one of the first things as people come back.
Stephen Perry
I don't know anything about it. I'm just working out to get ready for the season. ... When I get back to New Orleans on March 20, I'll find out what's going on.
Tony Bryant
We don't know the answer to that question. Based on what city officials are saying, the future doesn't look too bright for being able to play games in New Orleans. But we just don't know right now.
Greg Bensel
I do not think the media was irresponsible, because they had sources as high as the New Orleans police chief and the mayor. In fact, it would have been irresponsible not to report it.
David Rubin
We've got so much stuff now, we're giving stuff to other people, other families that come from New Orleans.
Andre Brown
In 40-some years, I have never seen a tornado warning for the New Orleans area.
Opal Tyler
A lot of people are thinking, 'I'll be back in New Orleans. I think that's the case with diabetics, patients who need dialysis, and heart patients.
Lisa Clark
Two-thirds of what we call New Orleans culture is really myth-making, ... People feed myths of the city back to the city. These myths are now in pieces.
Andrei Codrescu
I do not believe the press is guilty of the charge that it abandoned its healthy skepticism in Iraq , and I would hate to see it draw the inference from New Orleans that 'in your face' journalism is the panacea for restoring our lost credibility.
Bob Zelnick
I'd like to see Larry Suffredin go down to New Orleans and try to convince homeowners to give up their guns.
Richard Pearson
All the Raiders came to the Coliseum carrying their luggage, ... They were packed and ready to go to New Orleans right after the game.
Hank Stram
When we saw what was going on New Orleans, we decided it was time to take care of our own.
Walter Miller
New Orleans has a reputation for being fun. When you have images of thousands of people struggling, it doesn't help the city's image.
Robert Butterworth
They're not going to have New Orleans pumped-dry until the middle of October? What are we going to spend $52 billion on, between now and October, with a city flooded?
John Hostettler
That's what New Orleans does. It's part of our DNA, the whole idea of going a little crazy to keep yourself sane.
Fred Leblanc
I couldn't be more pleased, ... These kids are great here. They don't hardly know anyone in New Orleans ... but they wanted to do something.
Dave Foreman
We hadn't planned to come to New Orleans but when the call went out, we responded in force.
William Mathews
It was just plain good luck for the Biloxi and New Orleans areas, ... It meant that Katrina definitely came ashore much weaker than many had feared and many of us were forecasting.
Greg Holland
As soon as we can get back, we're going to New Orleans .
Marie Hunt
It seems like he was rediscovered, perhaps in the last decade and a half. A lot of new New Orleans music, his stamp is on it.
Michael Hurtt
We can't go back to New Orleans because there's nothing left.
Katie Johnson
To not be ready to host these groups would be very damaging to the city of New Orleans.
Sabrina Written
We sent them to the New Orleans Bowl with a losing record.
Bernard Davis
We always were afraid the bowl that is New Orleans would fill quickly. Now with the water rising today, it appears to be filling slowly.
Walter Maestri
There's going to be these lingering problems. There's still too much uncertainty in the New Orleans area. I think we are headed back to $70.
Mark Waggoner
They don't have much New Orleans to come to right now.
David Wagner
There's absolutely no chance that New Orleans will go the way of Galveston, ... There's too much money invested there.
Ari Kelman
The images from New Orleans were a horrible public relations disaster for the Republicans.
Paul Berendt
It is New Orleans: We want them to know that the very next day there is help for them available and there are people there who will help them if they need it!
Char Schroeder
I don't want to alarm everybody that, you know, New Orleans is filling up like a bowl. That's just not happening.
Bill Lokey
New Orleans food is as delicious as the less criminal forms of sin.
Mark Twain
They're not mellow. These guys really swing. They are the epitome of New Orleans.
Larry Gerwig
I know and you know people who would not leave without their pets. They will stay. They did stay in New Orleans.
Christopher Shays
We have so many players from New Orleans. It's always in the back of our minds.
Justin Vincent
We didn't adopt them for a day. We just adopted them. We had heard that so many smaller areas were not getting help because of the focus on New Orleans. We all know what it's like to be a little town.
Mary Alexander
We need to move forward much more quickly and have much more federal investment, ... It's sort of like with Hurricane Katrina. For years they asked for money to strengthen the levees in New Orleans, and in retrospect, it's too bad that money never materialized.
James Roth
She had a passion for cycling in New Orleans, now she'll have a passion for the hills of Howard County.
Mike Stone
We are giving away the beads to honor the victims of Hurricane Katrina, ... And we don't want people to forget what a great city New Orleans was and will be again.
Pat Monahan
I never much liked New Orleans anyway.
Andrew Clark
I think New Orleans is a good example - there's going to be more investment to protect that area now. That's the same with the funding of infrastructure.
Lee Wooten
We're looking to go somewhere in or near New Orleans. We would like to go deeper into Louisiana.
Brittany Stanley
I surmise there are people in New Orleans who won't be able to get back to their homes for months, if ever.
Michael Brown
What he took from me was nothing, because he can't take my spirit, he can't take my soul. My soul is New Orleans.
Charles Neville
If you are running for mayor of the city of New Orleans, you must have a plan to get us through the worst crisis in our history.
Norman Robinson
He loved to go to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. He went 11 years in a row.
Doug Macgregor
If it looks like New Orleans won't be coming back, then we're going to have to move somewhere else. And I have no idea where that's going to be.
Deron Washington
I do hope there is a possibility of getting back to the area and getting New Orleans rebuilt. There's so many people in need of that city. It's a city of nostalgia, a city of hope. I hope all is not lost.
Cynthia Brown
After spending some time with them, I really believe this city will be vibrant again someday. New Orleans will be back.
Steve White
I don't know that we need this many guys with guns in New Orleans.
Thomas Brewer
Obviously, we're going to play better teams. There's no New Orleans in the middle to help us out.
Roman Oben
Certainly the message was directed at African-Americans both inside and outside New Orleans. It's a political message that he intends to be the mayor of a majority black city. But the statement that God intended New Orleans to be majority black certainly could be interpreted as inflammatory by non-black voters.
Susan Howell
The family had lost their home, everything in the flooding in southern New Orleans where they (once) lived.
Butch Klein
Maybe 50 000 or more dogs and cats in New Orleans that need to be rescued.
Andrew Rowan
Apparently nobody noticed before this disaster that the crime rate was always extremely high in New Orleans.
Jack Levin
We need help. We need the same sort of help a big city like New Orleans is getting.
John Leblanc
So far, Washington has done little and New Orleans' response has been less than satisfying.
Adam Cohen
Well as soon as it hit, everyone was a little nervous because Katrina was going right though New Orleans. All the phones are down, can't get a hold of him.
David Mcfarren
New Orleans is going to be a whole other city when they get finished with it.
Judy Jones
The intent of contra-flow is to get as many as possible of the 1.3 million people in the greater New Orleans area out of harm's way, and that once that contra-flow begins, we could expect as many as 250,000 to 350,000 of evacuees traveling along the 55 and 59 corridors to escape the wrath.
Robert Latham
These are rivalries that have been going on for a number of years. They were doing the same thing in New Orleans. The hurricane brought those rivalries to Houston.
Alvin Wright
Because of the levee situation ... if we had an event come to New Orleans, I believe we'd get more water in the area.
Bill Doran
While the people of New Orleans and other affected areas clearly need help, I am not convinced that this legislation will provide it.
James Sensenbrenner
After his death, we moved back to New Orleans. We needed healing, and we didn't think we were going to be able to do that in Joplin. And, passing Ozark Memorial Cemetery every day that was going to be real hard.
Ben Jackson
Most of the people who are affected are poor black people. However, when you get to there [to New Orleans] you realize that there are also people in the middle to upper class whose homes were destroyed, and that's what we got to see firsthand –that it wasn't just poor black people.
Marissa Davis
There is also a widespread paralysis of the legal system in our area. The bankruptcy court in New Orleans does not exist anymore.
David Rubin
It's a modernized version of Julius Caesar. It was originally set in Chicago, but we've moved the location to post-Katrina New Orleans' Ninth Ward.
Jeffrey Wright
They can put me in jail, I'm 70 years old, and I want to come home. If I am going to die, I want to die in New Orleans.
Gloria Irving
We've got relatives from the South here who have been trekking in since last week. It's going to be kind of fun if they bring some of that New Orleans cooking with them.
Larry Jones
In New Orleans, the machines just crashed, ... They didn't work. And there was no backup planned; there were no paper ballots.
Bruce Schneier
But it wouldn't be the historical New Orleans.
Arnold Hirsch
There are projects that the original plan was to for them to be shot somewhere in the greater New Orleans area, and that's not an option now.
Malcolm Petal
The thing about New Orleans is that you step out of your hotel and you feel the energy and see the fans decked out in school colors, ... And then of course, after the game you knew you had a place to celebrate.
Matt Doherty
Provide needed community and ... help the city of New Orleans continue its recovery.
Mike Antonovich
I was thinking about how the kids in New Orleans wouldn't have a good holiday. They'd lost everything. I wanted to make them feel like someone cared about them.
Jenny Silver
The biggest problem in New Orleans was the failure of the levee system, which was supposed to be maintained by the government.
Malcolm Suber
Anytime you build a project, you have to look at the benefit/costs. It's hard for folks in New Orleans, who designed for a Cat 3. At the time they designed it, that may have been a reasonable benefit/cost. In Florida you must do the same thing.
Sean Smith
[Tate still didn't know quite what to think.] I just came up here from New Orleans, ... And now this.
Catherine Tate
There's no other place like this on Earth. New Orleans will always be here. It may be smaller, but it will always be here in some form, and I hope to stick around and see what form that takes.
Mike Higgins
I get a little bitter about New Orleans, because they knew what was going to happen.
Tony Miller
Michigan is an economic hurricane center -- we've been hit but we aren't getting the attention of Hurricane Katrina victims. We need the same kind of attention New Orleans is getting for manufacturing.
Chuck Hadden
I'm not naive, ... Right now anybody seeing the city of New Orleans would say, 'My God, that's the farthest place from where I'd want to be.'
Norman Francis
The half-life of the memory of a flood is very short. You can already hear it in Washington, D.C.: New Orleans where?
Gerald Galloway
The driving issue right now is the evacuation of New Orleans and where we're going to house all those people. We've got 23,000 people being bused to Houston today.
George Hood
I still think our guys don't know how bad it is. From what I've heard, unless you're on the ground in New Orleans, you can't comprehend what has happened there.
Chris Scelfo
Jazz in New Orleans - that's what the world loves.
Renaud Donnedieu De Vabres
Allowing the large fraction of wetlands in New Orleans to disappear is an extremely expensive thing.
Richard Carson
You could call it a mini-diaspora. The people in New Orleans, the people along the Gulf really had a culture. In many ways, they have been thrown out of the Garden of Eden, if you will. It's a diaspora brought on for people with no resources.
Joanne Nigg
Yes, we are investigating although there have been no arrests so far. The investigation involves the activities at Sewell of both the New Orleans Police Department and another sort of city official whom I can't identify right now.
Kris Wartelle
This is really hampering the economic recovery of the city. We've got every person's real estate in the city of New Orleans tied up in a knot.
Arthur Sterbcow
Our customers' demand for travel to and from New Orleans is strong as we are pleased to support New Orleans by adding more flights.
Kevin Krone
The city of Galveston has plans to exist without outside help at all for at least three days because New Orleans was cut off for so long, ... American Morning.
Ann Thomas
He's still on the streets of New Orleans, hasn't had a shower since Monday.
Doug Parker
This is strictly for the New Orleans Police Department.
Jim Campbell
[Davis] was good on the court; she was herself, ... But off the court, she was quiet. We chatted about it, and I had no idea she had so much family in New Orleans. It's been tough.
Prescott White
New Orleans will not be safe from another disaster like hurricane Katrina unless we begin to restore this natural hurricane buffer.
Scott Faber
There's not enough housing in New Orleans to handle the people who want to move back.
Scott Barnett
This situation has nothing to do with Darren Howard's knee. This is all about Darren Howard and the New Orleans Saints not growing with each other. That's the bottom line.
Darren Howard
The people of New Orleans are a people of faith, and we can begin to explore the possibilities, ... a simple way of life, ... less consumer driven.
Alfred Hughes
This program gives some hope to residents who want to come back to New Orleans to rebuild.
Brian Lewis
One idea, move the New Orleans courts wholesale to another city, even another state.
Jeffrey Toobin
I told one couple that here I'm free. Many came from inner city New Orleans. Many had a better life here (in the shelter).
Dr. Josephine Beebe
Every time I'm here in New Orleans, I'm usually so (drunk).
Nick Hexum
In 1735, New Orleans went under.
John Mcphee
Overall, it looks like New Orleans has lucked out in that they didn't get the heaviest rainfall.
Phil Grigsby
All of our New Orleans people are distributed throughout all the states. I was born and raised there. We need to go back.
Linda Lacey
We're on an e-mail list, and everybody was writing, saying 'We heard about New Orleans. Where are you? How are you?'
Sarah Smith
I think the sector is cranking along and there's a couple of stocks that will do well out of that disaster (the destruction in New Orleans).
Matt Willis
It's big in our area right now. Of course, New Orleans has it the worse. We're second and Alexandria is even starting to feel it. This is not a local thing, this is a national thing.
Gena Champagne
I just can't see not having more people. I'm sorry for the people in New Orleans. We're like sister cities.
Billy Jones
Our life has been changed for ever. We'd always heard of the Big One but we'd always escape it. On Aug. 28, Katrina had New Orleans in its sights and nothing was going to change its destination.
Peter Weiss
If in fact New Orleans were populated by middle-class whites, then you would have seen a far different response.
Bobby Rush
It's great that people are getting out and supporting New Orleans.
Michael Watson
I have a long history with New Orleans. I've been there more than 100 times ... it meant something special to me.
Tony Leone
There are no scheduled flights today operating into New Orleans or Gulfport, and we currently don't have estimate of when flights will resume to those airports.
Julie King
New Orleans has a lot of underutilized space and property. There is a huge opportunity to attract people here.
Camille Strachan
I don't think a city should depend on tall grass. In general, if there is a barrier, that helps. If there is a 25-foot surge coming, does that make it two feet less in New Orleans? It has yet to be proven.
Hassan Mashriqui
That was beneficial for the New Orleans film industry in the bigger picture to expand to other parts of the state.
Malcolm Petal
My impression of New Orleans is this: That there is a recovery on the way.
George W Bush
If a Category 4 hurricane ever hits New Orleans directly, the dikes will be breached and destroyed, and thousands will perish, ... Geological Hazards.
Timothy Kusky
There are always people who are going to be opportunistic when they see situations unfolding the way that they are in New Orleans.
Jeffrey Robinson
I think whenever you talk about the Sugar Bowl, you look forward to going to New Orleans. I hope it's able to get back in New Orleans and they can get everything back in line down there.
Neil Callaway
Compared to most people in New Orleans, what we're going through is minute. It's not so much of a nightmare for us. We all got out safe, moved somewhere else, and were taken care of. Not much compared to what most people have to deal with.
Brian Young
New Orleans has to rebuild not just its buildings and its political culture, but its image, ... The City: A Global History.
Joel Kotkin
Most of these people don't have jobs to go back to because New Orleans is gone. They're going to have to come up with a system to get money coming in so they can maintain themselves.
Joanne Nigg
This ain't safe. It ain't safe at all. I feel like we're back in New Orleans.
Josh Jones
We have never seen this in the New Orleans district.
Walter Baumy
New Orleans banks on its heritage and history. This could be a serious blow.
Ari Kelman
It's an accident, but in today's world someone has got to be accountable for everything. Like the levee in New Orleans -who would have expected that to happen?
Brad Marshall
People are taking the necessary steps to leave the city of New Orleans.
C. Ray Nagin
If you get reinvestment it probably isn't going to be targeted at those people, ... That could be a major problem in New Orleans if that housing doesn't come back.
Walter Peacock
I tried to get a load (of Sheetrock) for friends of mine in New Orleans, and I can't find anybody to sell it to me because they need it here for their local suppliers.
Chris Sheridan
She had been used to the heat of New Orleans for so many years, and she found La Jolla cold.
Bonnie Adams
At the time, there was no minority banking service in New Orleans.
Norman Francis
I am going to recite a prayer that I found to be appropriate for the [ceremony], especially after the tragedy in New Orleans. It's called a Prayer to the Nation.
John Mcmahon
Jazz is cultural music in New Orleans. It's part of the fabric of everyday life, and everybody knows the music. It's always going to be a part of it.
Donald Harrison
(Conventioneers) would want New Orleans to be as much like it was before. I don't think it'll be the same. But I think it'll have some of the same outlines and features.
Stanley Turkel
There's only two people in blues who have names like that. There's B.B. King and Buddy Guy. But Buddy Guy cost us a ton of money last year. What really sold me on Bishop is we saw him at the New Orleans Jazz Festival, and he just ripped the place apart.
Al Bricker
We kind of felt like outsiders there, but we stuck together. I'll be very happy to finally play in New Orleans again.
Jamie Mcneilly
We described them. Just like in the case of covering the hurricanes in New Orleans or terrorist attacks in Iraq. We will describe horrific scenes.
Leonard Downie
It was a wonderful opportunity for all of us. My roots are in New Orleans, my home is in Nevada.
Susan Haas
Mardi Gras will tell America that New Orleans is open for business.
Brian Kern
The New Orleans Police Department commandeered about 300 new vehicles, pre-owned vehicles and customer cars.
Carl Sewell
I just wanted the children to start to have normal lives back. I knew they would not get back their old neighborhoods, their old friends. New Orleans was destroyed.
Ahmed Isse
If New Orleans passes on this opportunity to improve itself, then we're not going to be a company headquartered in New Orleans. I guess that's our bottom line.
Dean Taylor
I can't imagine not coming back to New Orleans, ... We've lived here all of our lives, and we don't take it for granted. We don't know how long it's going to be before we have to make this choice. We're pretty convinced that we're not coming back anytime real soon.
Matt Ridley
We've fought a few fires with our brothers from New Orleans. We've gone and tried to clean out some of the homes of folks down here, and I wish we could do more, but we're doing what we can. It's a good feeling. At least we're doing some good.
Kevin Carroll
[One concern is that Rita will hit] the general area where all these folks from New Orleans have been evacuated, ... And there is enough hardship in that area as it is without throwing another hurricane at them.
Frank Lepore
If I'm living in New Orleans, ... and somebody tells me to go to the Superdome, I'd be damned reluctant to go there.
Russell Dynes
How do we rebuild a city that is so complicated, and interestingly so? ... There will be an impulse to do this completely rationally, then we'll end up with something that has none of New Orleans' quality. One of the charms of New Orleans was the irrationality.
Kristina Ford
We had one student who was participating in the National Student Exchange in New Orleans, ... Needless to say, they came back to us.
Donna Harris
The same levees that made New Orleans inhabitable have now made New Orleans uninhabitable.
Mike Tidwell
Our son is a first respondor and had to stay back in New Orleans and do search and rescue.
Warren Williams
We thought we'd be back home by now and life as we knew it in New Orleans would continue, ... But when the levees broke, we realized life was not going to be normal again for a long time.
Jamar Nesbit
We're the single largest private employer (in Orleans Parish), ... What does it say if the single largest employer doesn't get up?
Scott Cowen
New Orleans was my home, ... Everything we own is gone now. I used to go home to Georgia and wouldn't have any clothes because everything was (in New Orleans). Now it's going to be the same way.
Anthony Cannon
We've helped the state a lot. When people watch our games, they forget they're living in a trailer instead of their house in New Orleans. It feels great to know we're making people happy.
Garrett Temple
For die-hards like me, that have something to go home to, we're coming home, ... I love New Orleans. We're not a dying breed at this point, not yet.
Gloria Williams
She still loves La Jolla very, very much. She had been used to the heat of New Orleans for so many years, and she found La Jolla cold.
