They have to kind of know where he is on every play.

I knew it was going to be a different kind of class, but not a whole lot of reading -- which is rare for a history class.

Douglas Keatinge

Tim Kohlbecker

The jelly - the jam and the marmalade, And the cherry-and quince-"preserves" she made! And the sweet-sour pickles of peach and pear, With cinnamon in 'em, and all things rare! - And the more we ate was the more to spare, Out to old Aunt Mary's! Ah!

Shawn Ryan

(I Found That) Essence Rare.

Gang Of Four

The most we gained from it is seeing Kennedy. Not the physical part, but the myth part. It was a challenge for us. It's rare to go out and win a game like that, especially the first game. They came back and took the next two games from us.

What this document gives us is a rare insight into the imponderable process of decision making.

Readers are plentiful: thinkers are rare.

Joe Dawson

It's a rare thing to happen -- but ... if you want to protect, you step forward and do it.

We definitely didn't play our 'A' game (against UND). But we only had five turnovers and just 10 fouls. It's rare to be able to do that on the road.

Dave Boots

I describe this as very much a rare occurrence, despite the fact that we've had a few incidences recently. We absolutely have safety as our ongoing top priority.

Caroline Boren

We often hear of important gatherings of the "great and the good." Sadly the great have not often been good. But the good have learned that it is better to be good than to be great. Rare is the person in this life who is both great and good.

Guy Gadowsky

These are the rare directors who come along, and you're lucky if you stumble across one as an actor.

Sean Penn

Her character does things that are not very nice, [but] we forgive her. That's a quality that's rare among actors. Jack Lemmon had it; we let him sin and then redeem himself. Tom Hanks has it. But women, as a rule, are not afforded the opportunity, or we don't recognize it as quickly in them. It's a great gift that she has.

Glenn Gordon Caron

Customers are very tolerant about the Dec. 20 issues, due to the service levels they've come to expect. Everyone now knows about what was a 2.5-hour outage over a 4.5-hour time period. What happened was a rare database error, and it has been fixed. We're running as well as we've ever run.

Hugh Morris

This amount of effort is very rare. They're not getting overconfident.

Lester Funk

We almost never have an opportunity to sell any lots - it's very rare. We've had an incredible demand. With a lot, you can build what you want - within limits of design, square footage and caps. That appeals to an awful lot of people because it's not 'as is,' it's as you want it to be.

Tom Mccabe

It is rare that we are this optimistic this early. There is an abundance of water and the prospects for the water supply are excellent.

It's rare that we get blindsided this way. In this era of Sarbanes-Oxley, governance is a front-burner issue. I just hope that the scandal doesn't become more widespread.

Scott Black

It's rare to read a half-hour script that actually makes you laugh.

Jane Curtin

He's got one of those goals that's way higher than high school. He's so focused on making it to the Olympics. He's one of those rare kids that only come around so often.

Bob Lieber

It is a rare happening. But it is nice to have it one step removed. The process worked very well for the county.

It's a one-time experience in life, if you don't come back and hear us again, which would be different anyway.

Sam Rivers

To be really great in little things, to be truly noble and heroic in the insipid details of everyday life, is a virtue so rare as to be worthy of canonization.
