William Shakespeare

Indolence is a delightful but distressing state; we must be doing something to be happy.

Those are the three things the ego is doing all the time. It's very important to be aware of them every time they come up.

Deepak Chopra

The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin.

Clarke Forsythe

I?m just tired. That was rough. Those last 10 seconds were a lifetime, as usual against Michigan State.

Definitely I think our No. 1 singles in boys and No. 1 doubles teams have a shot at getting to the state tournament. Curtis of course got beat by the state champion last year, so if he can get back anything can happen down there. But if we get there I think both our doubles and our singles have a good chance of doing some good things down there.

Danny O'quinn

That's the one thing I wanted that I left out of my coaching career. I never won a state title. I was fortunate to be down there several times, but we never won it. We probably should have a couple times, but we missed out.

Jenn Davis

I was at the first state tournament in Lakeland in 1977, and except for the scoreboards, it looks the same as it did in 1977. They've done a lot of upgrades on the exhibition halls, but the arena has been neglected. It's showing its age, and that could be a negative.

Jack Watford

The state as a whole was doing pretty well before Katrina.

Phil Pepper

There is a lot of disappointment that we were unsuccessful with the eradication program... as a state.

Casey Pace

The campaigns can bluff a good game and say a state is in play when that state really isn't in play. These advertising dollar decisions tell us what they're really thinking.

Mark Carr

They have an outstanding team. I wouldn't be surprised if they brought home a state championship.

There are two ways of resisting war: the legal way and the revolutionary way. The legal way involves the offer of alternatinve service not as a privilege for a few but as a right for all. The revolutionary view involves an uncompromising resistance, with a view to breaking the power of militarism in time of peace or the resources of the state in time of war.

Albert Einstein

It is the duty of all those who value the Constitution to state that no one, not even a president, is above the law.

Dave Heineman

I don't see anybody who can beat us when we play our best. Does that mean we'll win state? Only time will tell.

Steve Segadelli

The volume of information in this case, the time necessary for information to be gathered and transmitted to us from a number of state agencies and the need to gather additional information from individuals and organizations outside of state government have all contributed to our request for this 14-day extension.

Christine Ferguson

I don't think you'll have to wait long. I'm not in a Hamlet-like state of indecision.

Michael Ignatieff

I think there would have been a time when the basic history would have been common knowledge.

Nicholas Hytner

Sheila Dinardo

Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking;.

Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

This is priceless for the community and the state, really.

Sherry Murphy

Jane Albright

We have the state line very close by, but it's charged on the Missouri side, ... The main body of what took place was on the Missouri side.

The 3-point shot has been one of the greatest things we've done for the game. The first year it was a state adopted rule. The next year because of overwhelming success, people were pleased with the rule and it became the norm.

Mary Struckhoff

I think they've gotten to a point where it's no longer a goal to make it to the state tournament. Their goal is to win state.

Pat Bennett

I went from a state of disappointment, in not getting the bunt down, to disbelief in a matter of two pitches.

Ben Johnson (baseball Player)

I really don't anticipate that the Massachusetts ruling will have much of an impact on other state courts because those courts will look at their own state laws and their own state constitutions, and rule accordingly.

Seth Kilbourn

Would I send Chris King to Des Moines or Washington, D.C., and feel secure in his ability to represent me (and his) ability to convey the information and the needs of this community and the ability to interact socially and professionally with our state and federal leaders?

Chris King

I'm not sure that we have the data from across the country to show that always works. We've had our issues in the state of Maryland already.

[University Police Officer Mark Allen said it was a typical football weekend.] It doesn't appear there were any serious injuries, ... Everything went smoothly for a Penn State football weekend.

Mark Allen

If passed, some of the money would come from the state crime victims fund. As a result, much of the training would be about victims of crime.

Given the pay-to-play Republican style of politics that is ruling our state, the question should be raised: What did Bob Perry get for his $100,000 investment?

Amber Moon

Reactions most of the time are congratulations, God bless you and they say if you can handle a family of 12 children, you can handle the state finances.

Attorney Paul Mangieri

I?m just glad to get it off my back before the state tournament.

Ross Mullenix

The state of our state is fragile, but I know our spirit and love for Nevada is not.

Paul Enneking

We need to be able to communicate to our members and gun owners in any given state and to suggest that we can't do that for risk of being thrown in jail is simply outrageous.

Chris Cox

In general, it reflected a lot of the recommendations the state has had for a number of years.

Bob Loux

While it's not state, CCS can also be overwhelming for some of the kids. You're still going against some of the best of the best.

John Ditmore

We can't work on those streets with state funds because they're off the state system. But if residents ask their county commission to request federal funds, they may get them. Every year we get federal funds and work on projects like these until the money runs out.

Bill Henderson

Wright has an exceptionally strong leg, and he could really be something for them. While Ohio State has been sending kickers to the NFL, Michigan's haven't burned things up out there, but Wright can change that. He could really be something.

Duane Long

I'm completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death.

George Carlin

Some of the burden (of tax preparation) is just making sure you don't lose any pieces of paper. If you need to get it replaced, it's a pain. It's all unnecessary. It's all in the state computer in our name. You ought to be able to log online, or have your accountant do it, and get access to all that data.

Joseph Bankman

The way he sold the trucks was within state statutes.

Cheryl Wilson

I told them they're the only team in 1A in the state to play for the championship in both of those.

Dr. Karen Alexander

China was viewed as a pariah state -- it was catastrophic.

Avery Goldstein

The economic output of this state is increasingly dependent upon Hispanics.

John Kasarda

This will set us up in the future as a larger player nationally in sports marketing. Down the road you might point at the Sunshine State Games as our next goal.

Jeff Mielke

We're in state of shock. It's tough, but at the same time we have nothing to hang our heads about.

Reggie Bush

There are a lot of rumors and expectations. The state will not confirm anything until the company is ready to make a response.

Bert Brantley

These kids live in the same communities and hang out, so the intensity will be there. They're playing not just for state but for personal bragging rights, so everybody's coming to play.

Dondi Mcgowan

We respect the right of Native American tribes to operate commercial enterprises, and the right of licensed distributors to supply them with legal products. But in conducting commerce with non-Native American consumers, everyone in the supply chain should play by the same rules, including collecting state and local taxes.

James Calvin

The kids are really happy. Their goals for the season were to win the district and the regional. They've accomplished that. Now, we are looking forward to the state tournament and to see how far we can go.

Kevin Osnes

By the end of this week Zimbabweans will have driven a message home to Mugabe that they are fed up with the state of affairs in this country.

Morgan Tsvangirai

My position is that North Dakota law already prohibits an off-reservation casino anywhere in the state, so the outcome of this federal regulation really doesn't matter in this situation.

Wayne Stenehjem

Adam brings the whole package. He's a class act on the golf course along with his game. (His game is) definitely one of the tops in the state and probably on the West Coast.

Greg Murphy

On the road we just haven't played up to out potential. Today (Saturday) we defended well and forced them (South Carolina State) to take bad shots.

Debra Clark

If the Legislature enacted every initiative (Doyle) proposed tomorrow, it would be less than $15 million -- out of a $50 billion state budget.

Melanie Fonder

When people can fulfill their potential they become innovators. The innovative economy is competitive and makes it possible to finance the welfare state, which is not just a cost, but a sustainable basis for the economy, producing new innovators with social protection.

Pekka Himanen

State employees and other Californians are facing tough times right now, ... We've seen state budget deficits over the last several years. The timing for a legislative pay increase isn't right.

Jeff Denham

I think the Bobcat Invite will be one of the premier meets in the state this year, no question.

Tim Bell

He's going to be continuing to do what he's been doing, which is campaigning up an down the state.

Brian Brokaw

Galveston was down and out when the state economy shifted from agriculture to oil in 1901. Houston was bound to become the center, to represent the state's economy.

Casey Greene

Becoming a broker in multiple states is one of the things we are exploring, as regulations and data availability vary by state and we think this could help.

Amy Bohutinsky

North Dakotans are hard workers. Looks to me like the low crime rate and lack of commuting problems should be effective in getting businesses to come into the state.

David G. Tuerck

Perhaps the feelings that we experience when we are in love represent a normal state. Being in love shows a person who he should be.

Anton Chekhov

It makes no sense unless you provided additional capacity or alternative speed lanes. There's absolutely no way people in this state will pay tolls without getting more in return.

Michael Riley

We're very much a team and that's how we won the state championship last year. If these guys improve at all we're going to be in good shape.

Rich Bruneau

I urge voters to state their position on the measure by exercising their right to vote.

Tom Anderson

Kids for Kids will have a show. There will be dancers from around the state using the stage and our North Haven residents were denied.

Wendy Ney

You want them to really say something about your state.

Tim Calkins

We still have to function here. State government still moves on. This consolidation will bring a lot of savings.

Sean Dilweg

It's increasingly becoming a war of all against all, with no rules. . . . The Iraqi security forces themselves are becoming just another of the players, and if they owe allegiance to anything, it's to their commanders or communities, and not remotely to the state itself.

Toby Dodge

The state has deposited its offer into the account at the courts. Basically, at this point, it's going through the appropriations process.

Cindy Brown

I liked gravy poured on top of a big glob of mashed potatoes, I liked biscuits a lot, and a lot of them. I liked going to the state fair and having a fried Twinkie. They were my choices. They were bad choices.

Mike Huckabee

I don't know of a state where it's not on the burner somewhere.

Ronnie Carter

GNU, n. An animal of South Africa, which in its domesticated state resembles a horse, a buffalo and a stag. In its wild condition it is something like a thunderbolt, an earthquake and a cyclone. A hunter from Kew caught a distant view Of a peacefully meditative gnu, And he said: 'I'll pursue, and my hands imbrue In its blood at a closer interview.' But that beast di.

Ambrose Bierce

That's probably the prudent thing to do, to analyze and see the results of the impact of Hobbs on the existing racetracks in the state. We need to look at the purses and the amount of horses available.

Julian Luna

These are the people who've made it through the red tape. They had the fortitude to get here. I'm continually amazed to see what patients have done with their lives when they've been in the state a short while.

Lee Orsky

The StormReady program provides us with an improved weather warning and preparedness service for the entire state. We are excited to be recognized as StormReady and look forward to working with the National Weather Service during major weather events.

Jamie Turner

I think we'll carry that momentum forward now. We want to have the second seed going into the state finals, not the fourth-place seed.

Michael Rader

The broad conclusion from tons of academic research is that private sector does things better than government. In a lot of these cases privatization is the only thing do because (large state projects) require a lot of capital and government entities usually have limited access to capital.

Sam Peltzman

I just want to congratulate Seymour on another fine season. This is the seventh year in a row they've played in the state tournament. Maybe their experience paid off, and maybe some of our inexperience showed.

Brian Richert

I think the state has failed. The failure goes back decades. The culpability goes back decades. We just didn't pay attention.

Jerry Patterson

In the relationship between man and religion, the state is firmly committed to a position of neutrality.

Tom C. Clark

The basketball options didn't really work out. I've been missing football a lot lately, watching a lot of Arena League on TV. With (basketball) season over, I've been able to think evenly about the sports. I think I have a good opportunity at Washington State.

Luke Fowler

That's what the controversy is all about, ... That the state wants to give it up.

Doug Harvey

A national park in Delaware will boost tourism and the state's economy, ... A national park here will put Delaware on the map and make the state a more attractive place to visit.

Tom Carper

People are more self-consciously Islamic but it doesn't mean anyone is saying ... we should make Indonesia an Islamic state.

Greg Fealy

Pharmacists in the state of Vermont deserve our gratitude. They've extended their faith, good will and free medicine. But we can't continue to depend upon their good will and faith.

Joshua Slen

It's not disastrous, but it suggests pretty sluggish growth. The state unemployment rate has pretty much trended upward since May.

Jason Bram

We market ourselves as the best field trip in the state.

Jack Lashier

I get advice in all directions from people with an interest in Iowa State. A lot of opinions come my way, but look at the track record of the athletic department - it's in great financial shape and the National Cyclone Club membership is up.

Gregory Geoffroy

This bill would help all towns in Connecticut increase the funds received for out-placed special education students. The programs are mandated but the state isn't mandated to pay.

Ann Murphy

The nature of the whole insanity defense is that because of the state of mind you're in that you don't know the nature and consequences of what you're doing.

John Parrinello

I think both the 5th Circuit and the parole board have been misled by something state keeps saying, proving that if you say something over and over again, even if it's not true, people will believe it.

David Dow

This is a race in a heavily Democratic state that, for a Republican candidate, will require full-time devotion in order to win, ... I could not be a senator and a father during this campaign. I could only be a candidate.

Peter Fitzgerald

When I was in high school, we would load up out-of-state hunters in a 1955 International pickup truck and tell them to hang on. We would bring them back after the hunt, dustier than heck and they would give us some cash.

Dennis Jones

These quasi-state corporations are in fact driven by private interests while taking advantage of their state status and privileges. The state has come to serve the interests of several corporations instead of the majority of citizens.

Andrei Illarionov

We believe every agent, no matter who they're employed by, should be licensed. We believe products should be regulated by function, and insurance, being a state regulated product, should be regulated at the state level.

Paul Equale

This is a Democratic state, but all voters are fed up. As voters begin to focus on the race, they're going to vote for change.

Sherry Sylvester

It will be awesome. I think it will be a good thing for the state.

Brittany Holestine

The network, which is an ICT driven platform, will make the best use of knowledge resources of the overseas Indian community for state level projects in the social sector.

Rajasekhara Reddy

Rebecca is within 7 points of qualifying for state and Alyssa is with in 20 points. I see both of them qualifying at GNAC in Hastings.

Jim Brandt

It's very valuable to the State Department to have what are called second track contacts with North Korea because they are more frank, and they're not burdened by the official process.

Selig Harrison

This shows there is still a state of emergency in the country; this proves the constitution was not people-driven.

Alex Langwenya

This is probably the hardest match to be ready for because it's the first time in the arena, the first time at state for some of these guys. To have good wins the way that our six kids did sets them up to have a good positive day (today), too.

Bill Reed

Leave the matter of religion to the family altar, the church, and the private school, supported entirely by private contributions. Keep the church and state forever separate.

Ulysses S. Grant

What the market is saying is these are companies that are in a distressed state and ... may end up in Chapter 11. The market may or may not prove to be right.

Lori Price

If all who are engaged in the profession of education were willing to state the facts instead of making greater promises than they can possibly fulfill, they would not be in such bad repute with the lay-public.

Isocrates

I think we wanted it more. We came off that big loss to Hand (15-7 on Saturday) and we just wanted to prove ourselves to everybody in the state that we're capable of playing with everybody.

Adam Lanehart

I haven't found anybody at the state legislature yet who even wants to talk about this let alone champion it.

Marsh Myers

What we can do is try to encourage the idea that the East Village is as much a place as a state of mind ... So hopefully the community can be understood by anyone with the right attitude, be they from Hoboken or Tokyo.

Phil Hartman

This jail has been accredited by the state as a jail that can hold juveniles because it has facilities to keep them separate from adults.

Robert Horan

It was excellent. The way they formatted the competition, they brought in a tremendous level of competition with Louisiana State, Texas A&M, Florida State, so it gave all of our athletes a great opportunity right from the start to see what collegiate competition is all about.

Fred Harvey

We are expecting to hear from the state about what kind of visiting they can have. They have already told us that we will not be able to have Baby M come visit her sister in our home.

Theresa Nicholson

The state plays a critical role in mobilizing information electronically to support improvements in patient care. Some states serve as convener, while others offer their support as a champion or a participant. In its role as purchaser, payer, and in some cases, provider, the state can play an enormous role in catalyzing change to improve health and healthcare.

Janet Marchibroda

We could possibly generate around $15 million this year alone in the state, ... Our goal is to reach $20 million by 2010 and I believe will reach that goal.

Alan Kearney

At (the Center), we are working at embedding sensor webs in all the key infrastructures of the state: transportation, power, refineries, water, the environment and so on. These applications are growing in number daily and we expect that motes of different sizes, capabilities and power consumption requirements will play a huge role in their future infrastructure.

Shankar Sastry

We have to come back, get better, get ready and get focused for Grove City, and sectional, district and state and see how many guys we can get out.

Jerry Mcswords

I did notify the state and they came to inspect the facility to make sure everything was in place, and that we had fixed the problem.

Hannah Watson

There is certainly a belief that the state can never get enough revenue. This is a source of revenue no matter how unfair or how difficult it is on families.

Victoria Cobb

Our assessment has shown that State Residences have not submitted their returns since July and that many ministries are not submitting regularly their monthly figures. Government should therefore be seen to be serious with the budget allocations and adhere to statutory provisions because once the budget is passed by parliament it is law.

Mabvuto Bamusi

California, the department store state.

When you watch Ohio State you realize they're so fundamentally sound and well-coached. You have guys that compete for 60 minutes so when you talk to your guys you tell them that they have to compete for 60 minutes and finish every play because that's what they're going to do.

New Jersey has the most to lose of any state if this idea of selling off the Northeast Corridor were to happen.

Beating Penn State is not going to be an easy task no matter how you stretch it, whether it's at their place or at our place. I think being at home gives us that bit of an advantage. It's always tough to play here and it's always tough to play at their place. We certainly prefer to be going into this game being at the Jesse.

It was excellent. After our loss last week, that's probably the most students I've ever seen in a game here at Rutgers, more than [when we played] Michigan State last year. The students are definitely just like a 12th man out there.

We knew coming in that it would be a very tough match. The fact that Rogers has won the state championship two years in a row will tell you that.

Competition for entertainment projects has become increasingly competitive and the state legislature provided Georgia the tools necessary to attract these high-paying, creative, non-resource draining economic development projects. Our incentive package enhances an already strong slate of assets and we are seeing great results.
