I never told my religion nor scrutinize that of another. I never attempted to make a convert nor wished to change another's creed. I have judged of others' religion by their lives, for it is from our lives and not from our words that our religion must be read. By the same test must the world judge me.

No one ever told me grief felt so much like fear.

Brian Hoberecht

That's once again the same people who told me I was too small, the same people who said I couldn't win a Super Bowl with our offense, the same people who said I couldn't play in a 3-4, ...

I grew up around Bison basketball, and I remember how exciting it was back in the day when we were really good. I always told my mom that I wanted to be a part of that. I am so excited right now, I am so glad we finally accomplished our goal.

That was also the night, ... that he told me he was going to the 49ers.

Chris Kemoeatu

Sarah Williams

The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.

Adolf Hitler

Everything they told him was different.

Daniel Kayee

We talked for two to five minutes. He asked me where I was coming from. I told him 'I'm lost right now.' He and me talked about my Navy career. He told me he was in the Navy. He showed me his card and asked where I was from. He asked what I was doing in the area. He was a good man. He was a God-fearing person. He didn't deserve to die.

Joe White

I was told later that he was a tabloid newspaper editor.

Kate Mosse

Jacob Tucker

These kids worked so hard, they don't give up, I told them before we left the school that we were going to face some adversity, and we did going into the fourth quarter... and come back and win, that's something great, and that's just a great way to get it started and hopefully it's not this hard every week.

Roy Roberts

Patti Harrington

Dr. Tan sent me an e-mail about two months ago and I told him no. We don't have a wheelchair division because of the difficulty of the course. We have three miles of gravel and rock and I didn't think it could be done.

Joe Duncan

My kid, obviously, she takes them every time because she just loves it. This program is really empowering [for the kids] because they are told for the first time no one has a right to hurt you.

[Dewberry] told me there's nobody faster than you, I need you to be out there and you can't worry about your pain.

Ashley Thomas

They have a tendency to get into foul trouble and I told the girls to look to attack them and that is exactly what they did.

Jason Murgel

It was good to get out of that inning and score some runs later. I've told them that both wins we've had were huge team wins. Now we just need to get a conference win.

Rebecca Norgard

I told the kids that if you think that's a fun environment, wait until next month. I can't wait until (playoff) season.

I was told I had an overabundance of original sin.

Gail Hartigan

He told her, 'If you do what I say, I won't kill you,' .

Vernon Keenan

When the pressure to win as taken away from the enjoyment of coaching, I knew it was time for a change. I didn't want to make a rash decision following what was a long season. Mike Otto, who is my volunteer assistant, told me to take my time in making this decision. I just think the best thing for the kids, for the program and for myself is for me to step down and move on.

Steve Myers

I'm delighted he's been given the opportunity to fulfill, what I have been told is a lifelong dream, to become a police chief of a small town. But, I'm also a little saddened that we won't have him as often in our community as he's been over the last 30-some years.

Frank was her one true love, she told me.

Keith Richardson

He called me one night and told me to come outside and he'd come and get me and we went to the gym. It was out of nowhere, and we were at the gym for two hours. I'm glad he feels that way about me. He has some confidence in me. And we hang out a lot more now, just trying to get to know each other better.

Rich Mcbride

I told Coach during the walkthrough right before the game that if we got inside the 30-yard line to throw me the fade. We were on the five-yard line and Coach looked at me and said 999, which meant all fades.

Daniel Rumley

There was a lot of concern about who was going to pitch this year, what are we going to do, sort of a woe is us. Everybody was worried, and she got up on the bus and told everybody that it was a challenge to all of us. We were going to have to hit better, field better, play harder, pick our game up and play on a higher level.

Michael Lotief

That is a matter for other people. I actually believe that there should be more truth perhaps told in terms of politics and what goes on but his position is not a matter for me.

Lord Stevens

Early on, I felt he was going too fast. I told him he needed to be quick, not fast.

Orv Salmon

If someone had asked me if I would be willing to stay out here this long, I would have told them they were crazy. I sure didn't picture myself being able to hold out.

Phrogge Simons

[In a comment entitled] To say we must stay in Iraq to save it from chaos is a lie ... They told you Britain must invade Iraq because of its weapons of mass destruction. They were wrong. Now they say British troops must stay in Iraq because otherwise it will collapse into chaos.

Simon Jenkins

We just told ourselves that we're a good team and we've got to come out like we're a good team. We were trying to stay focused after the two losses we had, and I think we did.

Nicolle Rubino

Gracie comes home from the hospital after visiting a sick friend. (George) 'Where did you get the flowers?' (Gracie) 'I went to visit Mable.' (George) 'Yeah, so?' (Gracie) 'WELL, you told me to take her flowers!'

Gracie Allen

We saw the reflection of the flames on the wall of our bedroom. So I called 911 and told the lady I thought it was on the Butcher property. I looked out the window and saw flames shooting up.

Lou File

I saw everybody in front of me, and their eyes were going crazy. It was a scary five or six seconds. They finally told us there was a mechanical problem and they couldn't get the plane in the air.

Martin Brodeur

It was annoying. I was tired of it. I wanted to throw it off for good, but the coaches told me I had to wear it if I wanted to go back into the game.

Dr. Lawrence Roberts

I told them the truth about themselves. They didn't like it.

Rhonetta Johnson

Loyalty was part of it. I told Urban I was going to be here and that was part of it. But to be honest with you if it had been anywhere but the University of Florida, I probably would have pushed in further. But it wasn't.

Doc Holliday

I told the kids that they wouldn't beat them by being the better offensive team but by being the better defensive team.

Rick Hauser

I told the girls that they needed to come out and set the tone right away. They did a good job both offensively and defensively and really moved the ball well. We are not a one-dimensional team that relies on one person.

Kent Johnson

I didn't learn a lot about business, because I've already run companies. I learned more about myself. I have always told people that they could do anything if they were motivated. But when we produced a children's book in 48 hours, I realized I really could do anything if I am focused.

Dawna Stone

Our defense in that (fifth) inning looked like we had quit. When they came back (to the dugout) I told them the game wasn't over. They went out and got some hits and scored some runs.

Jon Raker

I told my linemen to be tough, push them back, and I'd do the rest.

Austin Davis

Let them repeat what they have already told the prime minister in earlier meetings but they must show their presence.

Omar Abdullah

A lady saw me at a yard sale with my kids and told me about Habitat for Humanity.

Jaimee Hilgendorf

I told my crew, 'I'm not letting that good man [Barker] go by himself.' And that's the way it came down. There was a tremendous sense of duty.

Jon Evans

We have told people it's a beautiful place. Yes, go there, because the people rely on tourism.

Pauline Welch

I once told this writer a story about how I met the guys in an elevator and found out we all had the same last name, so we decided to form a band.

Joey Ramone

There were tears in (her) eyes when she told me that she wasn't going to make it.

Jerry O'connell

Coach (Jim) Mora told us he didn't know we are. He was right. It was not a representative effort of what we pride ourselves in as a team.

Patrick Kerney

We got some easy buckets against their press in the third quarter. I told the girls that if we get some easy baskets in the third quarter we are going to win the game.

Jason Murgel

Flip told us that he has scored more points in the paint than anybody in the league. That's unbelievable.

Antonio Mcdyess

We think it may have been food poisoning. I may have gotten an hour of sleep. I threw up and then I lay down and it seemed like the alarm went off as soon as I did. I felt awful. My dad told me I had to tough it out.

Bart Eddins

Today is really all about Lane. I told a reporter today he has been like my brother.

Phil Hare

We were winning by one point with 40 or 50 seconds to go. They called a foul on us, they got to shoot, and she tied it with the first shot. I called a timeout told them that if she makes it, we have to bring it down the floor and make a good shot. She made it, but we turned the ball over.

Angela Grove

Marketing comes up with a wonderful campaign and they don't tell anybody. It was a great campaign but nobody told manufacturing and they don't have enough staffing and nobody told HR and all of a sudden what could have been a very successful campaign turns into a customer satisfaction nightmare.

Howard Dresner

They (Cowboys) told me to get my ankle back. Things were looking good. I knew they'd keep four tight ends. Some players were released and brought back. But I remained there the entire time.

Tony Curtis

I held her, and Barry held me, ... I told her: 'I love you. I will always love you.'

Barry Graham

The loan officers said the home (loan) applications take priority. I was told as much, ... I can give you a loan to rebuild your house, but what will you do in the meantime? To me they should have equal priority.

Tony Martinez

Because Jerone thought that we were going to go in with masks. And then Troy was like, nope, leave no evidence. Just walk up in there and we'll kill all of them. Troy had told us some kids had robbed his house and he told us he had filed a police report, but they weren't going to do anything.

Brandon Graham

She told all of us the magic is in the chanting and the crystal bowl. And that's what caused everything to work was the energy from the crystal bowl.

Jeremy Adler

He wasn't ready. He just came in (Saturday) night and he told me he didn't think he could keep going. He felt (his arm) was too weak. If we had more (designated hitter) days we could keep him.

Chip Hale

It's something we stress all the time. We work on different aspects of defense, especially team defense, where we help each other. The girls know they have to play physical and they need to communicate. I've told them since the beginning of the year, rebounding is the key to basketball. They're playing great defense right now.

Russ Tietjen

We told the kids that you have to enjoy wins like this. We waited so long to beat Fort Frye that you can't take these wins for granted.

Doug Baldwin

One of the first things I told the kids afterward was that Fred pitched a heck of a game. I honestly thought if we made the plays we should have made, they probably had five or six runs, and that's good against anyone.

Tom Sliva

We went out there and we felt like we had a pretty strong showing. We told the kids to go out there, do their best and have fun so we could see where we were.

Mike Shaffer

At one point, we were told by Fire and Rescue that we had about two minutes or this gentleman was going to die.

Jeff Morgan

I told them at halftime, we've got to run the football.

Lin Stadler

People told me I should not have even bothered with her, and you get a kick out of seeing those horses win.

Wayne Lawson

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

This is the proudest moment I've had with this team since we started play on Nov. 21. When the chips are down, I'm the type of person that likes to fight and challenge. I told the girls that I want someone that will fight with me. I've seen a lot of fighting in the last week.

Shirley Walker

In fact, she told me she doesn't always agree with what they do.

Mary Hamilton

We just quit playing over a spell in the second half. I told the girls, 'Don't ever do that to me again.' But it's a good teaching tool. There are a lot of positives that we can get out of this.

Robin Blalock

It had a high arc, and as it was coming down it looked like it was off, so I just attacked the glass. I just got up and started running. I don't know what I was thinking. I went to my mom and gave her a hug and told her I loved her.

Carl Elliott

It's an honor to be around and experience the atmosphere. I was prepared to drive home until (Sunday) when I was told about this. I think it's a bonus.

Mike Esposito

The black dude was trying to grab it. So somehow, you know, he was trying to pull back, I guess. That's when it went off. That's all he told me.

Daniel Martinez

I told my team that it was time to start passing the ball to us instead of (Hemingway). We're a young team, however, so we're going to make some mistakes.

Pat Hewitt

We're delighted to be in this (the regional). We're really a year ahead of schedule, with seven sophomores on our team. If somebody back in December would have told me that we would be in the playoffs, I would have checked their forehead to see if they had a temperature.

Werner Christen

In ninth grade and 10th, he did basketball, [but] I always told him to wrestle. Basketball wasn't working out for him.

Billy Mcallister

He told them that they needed to submit to full scrutiny and they needed to make their proposal safer and more secure for America's ports.

Jay Carson

Supposedly so the story goes, the first white man came in and climbed up there on top of that pass...and when you get up there, you are looking right up main street Zion, right up Zion canyon and he is the first white man to see Zion canyon, is the way the story goes. Now there is lot's of other lies that can be told and I am sure if you come down to the Jamboree those will be told to you.

Jayvar Campbell

These balls weren't even close, so I walked every time. Finally my manager told me to just swing anyway, so I popped up trying to hit a ball two feet outside.

Tuffy Rhodes

He was asking me what he should do, and at that time I told him that if he had the courage and the heart to do it, that he should go to the court and that he should acknowledge that he was responsible and the others were not.

Joseph Towle

They put a lot of pressure on you when you're from Pittsburgh, telling me everyone from Pittsburgh makes the final four. I told them I'd make the final four.

Rafe Judkins

They just told me that they've found a lot of people that she chatted with and that they were checking into all of them. I'm not sure who they were.

Michelle Duffey

(Shearer's) been in the doghouse for a while and I was in his face during the game so I guess he told me where to put it.

Josh Sanderson

She told me to keep my head up and keep playing, to not give up.

Rashonda Mayfield

I told them we needed to start playing our own game. We just needed to run the ball more and crash the boards.

Matt Kelley

I told my mother.

Cokie Roberts

He told us it'd be a great opportunity for us. And it turned out it was.

Calvin Johnson

I told my mom and told her to make sure to make sure to pack all the baby pictures. Pictures are good memories. You can't go back and take baby pictures all over again.

Derrick Pope

I didn't feel it swelling. I told the doctor I was all right.

Jerome Pillow

In that time, Sibley didn't mince words. He supported the right to vote for women and the initiation of a graduated income tax. He was not going to be told what to think.

Jack Baker

I told (Val) to come up here with a first base glove because what I'd like to do is get him playing once a week at first base and also some right and left field. I think it'll help his situation for the future to go to the big leagues as a possible first baseman. I'll try and help him out a little bit by moving him around.

Dave Trembley

We told the guys they'll wake up Sunday morning and it's a new day. I just hope we can get our focus back.

Jim Finlen

Little ol' boy in the Panhandle told me the other day you can still make a small fortune in agriculture. Problem is, you got to start with a large one.

Jim Hightower

The first time I approached Mr. Massey about investing, he told me to come down and catch him after a board meeting of the Baptist Hospital.

Sam Moore

For me and for our family, looking at death is its glory, and an opportunity to thank God for this good because my mother was supposed to die, I told you, when I was 4 years old. She was very ill, and I couldn't live with her, but God gave her to me for 60 years so there is no stinging today. You know, this is his glory. His greatest gift was the gift of my mother for 60 years. That's it.

Ronnene Harris

John Ritter had told everybody to introduce me as an airplane pilot to fool Don. He turned purple when he found out I worked for the studio.

Candy Randall

The woman said she arrived in Cancun on December 27 and that day met a man named Brad staying at a Cancun youth hostel. He later told her his name was Mike.

It was like a championship game, we've been talking about it since the summertime. Last night he said he was going to get his career high tonight and I told him I was going to match him.

Michael Hayes

My coach told me to slow down and enjoy the rest of race. He told me nobody could catch me anymore.

Kati Wilhelm

The only time I was under oath was Monday, and I told the absolute truth.

Frank Melton

We want to tell people you may be pressured at these meetings, you may be told that you'll get your money back and that may not happen. Why give your money before you even know what the program is?

Glen Loyd

My brother told my priest brother, 'I'm getting out of here,'.

David Fish

Oh, I don't really know to this day. I was told they wanted a better drummer, I was anti-social, they didn't like my hair, but it is still very much a gray area and the reasons don't hold water.

Pete Best

They told us to try again next year.

Al Kidd

One kid told me, 'We were so used to losing that I just figured we had lost. When you talk about vision, that's what has to change here right now. ... I need to talk to those kids to let them know that the culture is going to change here.

Tom Parrotta

Someone once told me that every minute a murder occurs, so I don't want to waste your time, I know you want to go back to work.

Alfred Hitchcock

Like I told our guys - this has nothing to do with last year.

Bill Cowher

It was pretty high, man. It was way up in the sky. My cousin from Midland called me and told me he saw it.

Joe Gutierrez

A friend told me that teenage girls are always looking for someone to pin their dreams on. That doesn't make it any less weird though.

Orlando Bloom

After all, a girl is - well, a girl. It's nice to be told you're successful at it.

Rita Hayworth

Unfortunately, from what the superintendent told me, all I can do is go down.

Michael Welch

Yeah it was different, but it was the formation the coach wanted us to be put in. He told me just to hold the ball up and try to wait for people to come up and play it to them. So that is what I tried to do.

Clint Dempsey

If you had told me when he made the switch that he would be on the Olympic team, I would have said he had a great shot. But if you had talked about winning World Cups and world championships, I would have said let's wait and see.

Paul Hedrick

I told him, the kids and I are leaving, ... And I wanted him to come, and he said he was going to stay.

Diane Johnson

I started making sandwiches with the group eight years ago. When I missed a week and came back, they told me I was in charge of getting the bread and bologna.

Judy Murray

I just told the girls that they better stop that No. 23 (Flores) because she was hot and she's their go-to person. I thought our girls did a good job of staying in her face, chasing her down and causing some deflections.

Diane Morgan

He told me he wasn't getting into the middle of this.

Linda Allen

The coaches told me I was the last defensive player they'd ever put on the floor. Now they are comfortable with me. I guess it's way better than it was a few months ago.

Shawn Taggart

I don't blame the city for canceling the parade. I just wish they had told us sooner. We could have done something to help raise money for the parade.

James Spitz

He's one of a kind. He's going to go out and tell it how it needs to be told. He's the kind of guy everybody likes to hang around. He's a people person.

Jamaal Tinsley

We definitely at times this year have had an issue with finishing. Guys would make too many moves trying to score. Coach told us that we just need to take it to the net and the goals will come.

Andy Wilkinson

We tried to come into the second game more focused, and with more intensity. I told the girls we needed to limit the walks and errors.

Jack Daniels

Everybody we've heard wants to save the Grape Bowl. Nobody has told us they want it to be torn down. So far, the sentiment is that it's too much of a community asset to do anything except renovate it.

Richard Dean

Other clubs will look at him as a second baseman or an outfielder. Mentally, he is happy. He is going to play [the outfield]. I gave him some sound advice. I told him to go there, have fun. If he misses a fly ball, he has to come back the next day and try to get a coach who can hit him fly balls.

Alberto Castillo

It's always been there for Melissa. She's always taken a back seat, not wanting to get involved. She's had great practices. I told her she had to step up. They were in a triangle. We can't have Ryan and Rayne handle and run an offense.

Joe Masleh

Its not my position. I do it for the team, and because the manager told me I could do it.

Mathieu Flamini

I told our guys we've grown up a lot this week. We've got five games in and we've seen a lot of positives. Offensively we've got a lot of guys swinging the bat well. Defensively, other than last night (at Benjamin Logan) we played very good for four out of our five games.

Jason Brandt

I'm averaging somewhere around 21 and a half, which is disappointing considering the window sticker told me I'd be averaging somewhere around 31.

Jan Roberts

Tom told me that the weather conditions in South Dakota are not currently favorable for pheasant trapping, but a new snow could help Pennsylvania get another shipment of birds yet this year. The cooperation that we get in South Dakota is just tremendous.

José Taracido

I knew there'd be a big crowd tonight and a lot of noise. I just told the kids to focus on the game.

Rich Demuzio

I told my seniors that if they want to win a region title they need to step up and show the young guys how to do it.

Michael Espinoza

I told her that if she was going that fast with that stroke, she's going to be all-world when she graduates.

Al Marks

I told (my blockers) to open up a hole and I'd take it home, ... I was supposed to keep right, but I had seen a hole in the middle and I took the daylight. I'm grateful for my teammates.

Josh White

The polls never told the truth.

Otton Solis

They could have simply been told, 'Enter the United States, learn how to fly these types of planes,' ... They may not have known ultimately where this was headed or what the goal was. Then as that became necessary, they could have been in communication with other members of other cells who would have given them other directions.

Ben Venzke

These area great pieces for their resume. For them to say we put together a campaign for the Target Corporation. It's a nice opportunity to show this at job interviews. I've told them to take my comments and make changes and use them in interviews as examples of work they've done.

Michael Leonard

Well, I know they've always told you/Selfishness was wrong/Yet it was for me, not you, I came to write this song/.

Neil Peart

She told me that she went for a walk and got lost and wandered around for a long time.

Jack Gillen

Those Wellesley girls are very loud, very friendly and very supportive. One of the runners helped me out. He told me to get to the left side and plug your ears.

Michael Rosa

They told us at the meeting we should blame previous legislators since they drafted the bill.

Jadi Rajagukguk

I've told the players since the start of the playoffs that they have earned the right to be here. They've responded. Everyone has stepped up and is doing what it takes.

Jen Milne

I never felt like I'd be lost in the shuffle. Coach told me I was an important part of this team.

Ryan Werch

I went out and told the girls (in Game 3) that, 'nobody in this district is going to give you a game. It's going to be tough and you have to go out and fight for it.' After that they went out and fought a little harder. For that girl (Jones) to be such a big hitter, it was a positive that our defense was able to get down and dig some of the balls that she was hitting.

Melissa Hardy

Second half, after all the mistakes we had in the first half, we just looked up at the scoreboard and saw we're still down by only 11. Coach told us in the second half to play hard, leave it all on the line. That's what we did. We did what we could to come back, but it didn't happen for us.

Terrance Carter

We're pretty disappointed, but I told them that it's not the judge of the kind of men they are. I can't wave a magic wand and make it all feel better. It was not a good day for the City League.

Brian Nicola

What I've told the guys is that there's some uncertainty here -- about the program, about the coach, about a lot of things. They don't know how everything is going to turn out, so it only makes sense for them to explore their options a little bit.

Chris Kennedy

After that first game, we got fired up and told ourselves it's time to take care of business.

Peter Eichler

At one point, New London had had only one foul and [coach Brendan] Higgins told us we had to start drawing fouls. When we drew that first one it seemed to turn everything around. I guess I just used what he said.

Sofia Iwobi

This is a very big win for us, over a very good Ripon team. I think our girls really grew up tonight. I told them to not hang their heads, no matter what Ripon does. Our girls never gave up and they learned they can play in big games.

Skip Laper

We've been told that it will take a state law to have the culvert covers removed. Some of our citizens are taking it into their own hands, and the covers are gradually coming off.

Max Pirner

As a teacher I've given up my raises, my pension is negatively affected, my Social Security is negatively affected. But the union -- the money making machine -- told me this is what I should accept.
