The damage and destruction left in the wake of Hurricane Katrina is heart-wrenching, ... We have responded with a contribution to show our support, care and concern for the people and the communities in those areas. At the same time, our catastrophe claim responders are seeking out and responding to our personal and commercial policyholders.

Jay Fishman

Some sleep in their studios so they can wake and work.

Linda Earle

You got to wake up and smell the coffee, because it's going to hit, and these gas prices are going to go up, and up, and up, and up.

David Norman

There's another factor that we don't often think about, and that's the frequent travel, the jumping across time zones, jet lag. We know that disruption in sleep-wake cycles is another precipitant for depression.

Charles Nemeroff

It was a rough day for all of us. We went by bus to the wake (Peter Arthur) in the afternoon and then continued on to Dracut for the competition.

Julie Chapman

I like to wake up each morning feeling a new man.

Jean Harlow

Late to bed and late to wake will keep you long on money and short on mistakes.

Aaron Mcgruder

In the wake of the Hurricane Katrina disaster, millions of Americans dug into their pockets to help those in need, ... A few, sadly, tried to profit from the misfortune of others. Given the immense suffering occasioned by this storm, these crimes are disturbing and disappointing.

Chuck Rosenberg

I made sure he was asleep. I got the bat, and I hit him over the head. I hit him once and I heard him moan. I was afraid that he might wake up and see us, so I just kept on hitting him -- somewhere around 10 times.

Derek King

These guys were terrorists. It was a wake-up call to establish a navy.

Walter Borneman

We definitely started to wake up and came together as a unit in the second half.

Sarah Wheeler

I have never recruited a single person into the homosexual lifestyle because it's not a chosen lifestyle. I didn't wake up one day and choose to be gay, and I don't believe . . . any of you woke up one day and chose to be heterosexual. It's what you are.

Sen. Scott Mccoy

It may just be that a true wake-up call creates a true shift in consciousness. My wake-up call left me no choice. I had to make dramatic changes. Sometimes changes just happen within you, it is the way you approach things. Everything else stays the same.

Cheryl Richardson

Public education needed a wake up call and this was it.

Dr. Theron Schutte

All I do is wake up in the morning and usually just leave it the way it is. I use the natural grease. It's very easy.

Deryck Whibley

Democracy is not something you put away for ten years, and then in the 11th year you wake up and start practicing again. We have to begin to learn to rule ourselves again.

Chinua Achebe

Those industries will inevitably mechanize, exhaust their resources and decline, eliminating jobs and stalling out economies in their wake. In order to stimulate lasting economic growth and ensure a strong future for coming generations, jobs, industry and income sources must continually diversify.

Thomas Power

We're still thinking we're going to wake up from a dream or something. We're trying to grasp the fact that we're millionaires.

Chasity Rutjens

This is intended as a wake-up call.

Andrew S. Tanenbaum

We need to look at it differently and we need to work smarter. The wake-up call is there.

Suzanne Michelony

I think we were playing a little too relaxed ... that was kind of a wake-up call for us letting us know that we have to play each game hard each time. Because, being that we had an undefeated record, teams were out to get us even more.

April Mcclendon

I think he's going to wake up sore tomorrow, ... He shook himself up.

Barry Weinberg

[But as] I Slept With Someone In Fall Out Boy And All I Got Was This Stupid T-Shirt ... they wake up with Pete Wentz from Illinois.

Pete Wentz

Enron was a wake-up call for all Americans.

Paul Lapides

I live a different way today. I have a family, and they are a priority for me. These days, I no longer wake up in the morning and worry if my bass is tuned properly and practice for hours and hours on end. I don't perform as much, but when I do, there's such magic to working in front of a live audience.

Stanley Clarke

So much has been said and sung of beautiful young girls, why doesn't somebody wake up to the beauty of old women.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Some of the drug companies now market, 'We have no hangover effect.' But they'll tell you, 'Give yourself the full eight hours of sleep' because they know if you wake up sooner, you're going to have the hangover effect.

Dr. Hitesh Makkar

We have had a wake-up call and it is time to be sure TWIA is property funded.

Jerry Johns

We sound an alarm, a call to arms and a wake-up call to the world. A world in which an extreme and evil regime denies the Holocaust, while preparing the next one.

Dan Gillerman

(Gabrielle) had the biggest smile you've ever seen. She would wake up with a smile every day. She would tell us I love you' before she went to sleep at night and before she went to school in the morning.

Harry Henderson

The younger players got to understand that everything that happens on that field is crucial. That one point can be the difference between a win and a loss. Your young kicker has to understand that every point counts. (Cortez) needed a little wake-up call.

Marco Rivera

Sometimes you wake up in the morning and have a bad day. Sometimes you wake up and have a great day. Today I had a bad day.

Kevin Mawae

This is another wake-up call to get a handle on runaway medical inflation. We're approaching $1,000 for the average stay in a hospital. This is hurting people and really overloading our economy.

Bill Vaughan

These two-hour races for Champ cars, I'm all down with that. Wake up in the morning, race, go party after.

A.j. Allmendinger

Oh, grieve not, ladies, if at night, Ye wake to feel your beauty going; It was a web of frail delight, Inconstant as an April snowing.

Anna Branch

And if tonight my soul may find her peace in sleep, and sink in good oblivion, and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower then I have been dipped again in God, and new-created.

David Herbert Lawrence

I say they're misinformed. In a place like Wake Forest, the scholarships are worth $40,000 or $50,000 apiece. They spend $15 (million) or $20 million a year in scholarship aid. That money has to come from somewhere.

Ben Sutton

If we were to wake up some morning and find that everyone was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other cause for prejudice by noon.

George Aiken

Consumers got to wake up and just say no.

Dave Ramsey

I think that the hurricane is a wake-up call for all us people to come together. And you know what? Black people need to get together. We need to do a better job of that.

Curtis Reliford

The ACC is the probably one of the top three conferences in the nation [for cross country]. The top teams are N.C. State, North Carolina, Wake Forest and Duke. Boston College might be all right in their first year in the conference. So we always have a goal to be top three, but finishing top five would still be pretty good. It is really competitive.

Shannon Hawrylo

Every day this week, before practice or after practice, we talked about what we did last weekend. It was only as a friendly reminder as to what we need to do, almost as if we need a wake-up call every day.

Tony Macaulay

I would describe them as a wake-up call to the industry. There's a great sense of urgency around this, both in our members and in the industry at large.

Roger Sullivan

Very clearly, Illinois is on the wrong path. Good jobs are leaving. Our education system is in dire need of repair. And you wake up every morning, and what do you see? Another investigation seems to be kicked off into some form of political corruption.

Ron Gidwitz

We'll see what kind of team we are when we wake up with an 18-1 record, not 19-0. But the guys we got right now, we know this is part of it. We understand. We're ready.

Thomas Berkery

They're what I wake up for every morning and they're the last thing I think about before I go to sleep. I spend more time with these animals than most people spend with their children.

Mike Hayward

It's unbelievable to wake up to those kind of nominations and that kind of company, it's just a dream again, and we're very excited, and it should be a war on the 22nd. ... We take nothing for granted. We didn't get the nomination last year, but this year recognizing the show is a big deal. We were holding our breath the whole time.

Anthony Zuiker

I think God was punishing us. That's how I feel. It's a wake-up call in our city. Our city was getting too corrupt.

Hurline Magee

He that is thy friend indeed, he will help thee in thy need: if thou sorrow, he will weep; if you wake, he cannot sleep; thus of every grief in heart he with thee doth bear a part.

Richard Barnfield

The first time a CIO goes to a site such as Hacker Defender, it's a big wake-up call. But if you're not aware that these groups exist, it's hard to defend against them.

Herbert Thompson

I wake up from dreams and go "Wow, put this down on paper." The whole thing is strange. You hear the words, everything is right there in front of your face . . .

Michael Jackson

I left a big sign on my door saying 'Don't Wake Me Up, I Have to Compete Tomorrow'.

James Millar

This incident here is a wake-up call. I'm telling my girls constantly don't take anything, not even food unless it's from home or the cafeteria, because I'm afraid of something like this happening.

Lucy Treanor

I go to bed thinking about it; I dream about it; and I wake up thinking about it. This is our last week no matter what. This is our chance to make history.

Brooke Baker

Of course, you lay awake nights. You do wake up in the middle of the night wondering about it.

Jill Lawrence

I believe America's aerospace industry is gravely threatened by the aggressive subsidies and support that Europe showers on its domestic industry. Our workers and our economy will pay a high price if we don't wake up to this threat and take action.

Patty Murray

"When you wake up in the morning, Pooh," said Piglet at last, "what's the first thing you say to yourself?""What's for breakfast?" said Pooh. "What do you say, Piglet?""I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?" said Piglet. Pooh nodded thoughtfully."It's the same thing," he said.

A. A. Milne

I want him to wake up every day and see my face and hear my voice and see my son's picture every day.

Joanne Sanabria

I feel like the defense finally got to the point where they got tired of getting embarrassed on their own floor. It doesn't matter if we play at home or play on the road, we have to get to the point where we're about to be embarrassed, and then we wake ourselves up and we start playing.

Jay Joyce

I'm sure it didn't hurt because that was what they had spoken about. We weren't doing it to wake them up. We just wanted to win a ball game, and we're very proud that we won two straight (Mountain State Athletic Conference) titles.

Rick Greene

I sometimes think we must all be mad and that we shall wake to sanity in strait-waistcoats.

Bram Stoker

It won't bring him back. It still hurts. It looks like it will be a positive thing as long as they have enforcement. People need to wake up and be more aware.

Don Casey

We had to wake up. We're too lackadaisical in the first half. We had to win this game.

Ravi Moss

A lot of people underestimated us, and that's fine. Around campus, we walked around in August like we were going to a wake. Every student was giving us condolences on going to Division I. Hopefully, we made them proud today.

Tim Miles

I'll have to study more. We'll have to put in a certain amount of study hours. I'll also have to wake up on my own and decide whether to go to class.

Derron Smith

Death in my mind isn't a finality. There's a continuum: It's like at night, you go to sleep and in the daytime you wake up, or whenever you wake up, and it's a new day.

David Lynch

Sharon came back very strong. Their first goal was a bit of a wake-up call that we were not finished yet.

Dr. Karen Alexander

I said, 'Women don't normally sleep in a bra. I can't wake up in this scene wearing a bra, it's ridiculous,'.

Scarlett Johansson

If the Jews don't wake up, by the time of the election, we will already have lost Hebron and all of Judea and Samaria.

Benny Elon

I think the the senseless murders were a wake up call to the community, to focus on what is going on.

Laketa Cole

NHTSA didn't do its job in responding to information that they had. They fell down on the job, they were asleep at the wheel and they needed to be reminded and this is the wake-up call of all wake-up calls.

Sally Greenberg

It was definitely a wake-up. We are still in the Top 25, but [beating N.C. State] would have showed a lot of people we are about business. It would have been a great opportunity for us to get a spot ... in the NCAA tournament.

Carl Elliott

My future starts when I wake up every morning... Every day I find something creative to do with my life.

Miles Davis

This is an important march for human rights. Now, it is time to wake up so they can respect us as human beings.

The dollar's long-term prospects are still in question as [oil prices] remain high and many areas in the [southern] United States have been left in turmoil in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.

James Moore

He didn't respond specifically to our requests, but hopefully tonight he will wake up and realize our suggestions make good sense.

Din Syamsudin

Everyone was amazed when our varsity team, which had only been at one other tournament at Wake Forest, won two of the seven rounds.

Danielle Verney

When they wake up this Christmas Day, and they're away from home, they also can take enormous pride in being part of a really historical year.

Marine Genpeter Pace

[It] was kind of a wake up call for our team. It kind of gave us a little grudge coming in here. It forced us to come in here with more of a high-tempo game than we might have if we had just won and rolled through.

Ben Bishop

Our research not only shows that there is no buzz about blogging and podcasting outside of our media industry bubble, but also that people have no understanding of what the words mean. It's a real wake-up call.

Sarah Carter

Men wake up aroused in the morning. We can't help it. We just wake up and we want you. And the women are thinking, "How can he want me the way I look in the morning?" It's because we can't see you. We have no blood anywhere near our optic nerve.

Andy Rooney

This tragic week should serve as a wake-up call to all employers and workers. We know from experience that the overwhelming majority of deaths and workplace injuries can be predicted and therefore prevented.

John Merritt

His eyes were weird looking. Evan, he said, 'Craig, wake up!' because we thought he might have been knocked out.

Jake Eakin

Playing music in the wake of the Blink thing was like finding love in the middle of a war zone.

Tom Delonge

It was nice to get this win, birthday or not. There's days when I wake up now, when I say, 'This is going to be a rough one.' You just have to fight through the pain.

Brett Favre

I think the freshmen got a wake-up call. They were both excellent high school pitchers and I think will be good college pitchers down the road, but they saw today that one through nine in a lineup can hit at Division I.

Jim Perrin

This is a very good wake-up call for Chinese companies. They will now learn to adhere to international corporate governance practices and also accounting standards.

David Gerald

Now I wake up in the morning, my mouth is closed. I can breathe through my nose, it feels so good.

Brad Hoag

All the aftermath that so frequently follows in the wake of war still confront the nation, and we now, as ever before, must hold fast to the ancient landmarks and see to it that all of these plagues that threaten so mightily shall be rendered harmless.

Alexander Henry

I think this is definitely a wake-up call for Intel. This is really a telling trend that AMD can compete.

Matt Sargent

In the wake of Sept. 11 and its severe impacts on commercial aviation, United Technologies turned in another solid quarter.

David George

I contacted funeral homes and I work closely with Wichmann who has a complete audio-visual sound system at their Superior Street location so that a tribute can be playing during the wake.

Meri Hujet

The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of world and wake up in another quite different, and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found?

J. B. Priestley

This has to be seen as a wake-up call to policymakers and healthcare providers, as it puts an increasing burden on an already frayed safety net.

Peter Lee

Now, in the middle of the night, you hear me wake up in this cold sweat going, 'Bond, James Bond'.

Burt Reynolds

We're fighting for the wild card. We have to get in there and try to get their pitcher out of the game. . . . You have to wake up a little bit and score runs early in the game.

Luis Castillo

I go to bed every night with a smile on my face and wake up with a bigger smile, ... I think I have about 1,000 new best friends.

Tim Dorsey

The economy is showing more strength and the bond market is starting to wake up to that fact.

Bill Davison

We are hoping this is real wake-up call so people can start getting ready for the colder weather.

Jason Alderman

The president got a pretty good wake-up call. He needs to stop thinking about his grand legacy and being the all-time hero of the Republicans and concentrate on doing the job he was elected to do. He really has to get a grip on his administration.

Mickey Edwards

Maybe it was a wake-up call for her, hopefully.

Allen Huddleston

Our loss last Saturday was a wake-up call. I gave them a lesson on mental toughness and it paid off.

Koy Banal

It is a bit tough to get back into the match after two days of rest. It was tough to make my body wake up. I was feeling very tired.

Camille Pin

We were really flat and had no energy in the first quarter. They (the Hawks) jumped on us hard and took it to us, until we decided to wake up in the second quarter. This wasn't a great game for us.

Glen Flanagan

This was just an average meet. There was nothing sensational. Hopefully, it'll be a wake-up call and our girls will get the picture. If we plan to win a fifth straight state title, these times will have to come down.

Dave Federico

A wake-up call with regard to the dependency or the growing dependency of the United States on foreign sources of supply.

James Schlesinger

It's early in the season and everyone is still trying to get back into tournament mode. But hopefully, this will wake us up and we can feed off of it.

Kevin Fitzpatrick

This was a big game for us. We had a wake-up call against Ackley. We found out we weren't as good as we thought and that we have to push each other.

Indy Uhlenhopp

Don't feel obligated to wake up 30 minutes later to get a little boxed lunch you don't want anyway.

Thom Nulty

At some point, you have to actually print the newspaper and have it on people's doorsteps when they wake up. What was the alternative? Not to report that? I think that's a bit unrealistic.

Martin Baron

Our offense was just stymied against a great East Wake defense. They're probably the best we faced [this season].

Deron Clark

Turn resolutely to work, to recreation, or in any case to physical exercise till you are so tired you can't help going to sleep, and when you wake up you won't want to worry.

B. C. Forbes

It was just a point where I had to let everybody settle down and get to their spots before we started running the offense. The offense became more efficient against Wake Forest. I'm trying to keep that same tempo and just slow down a little bit and just see the floor a little bit better.

D.j. Strawberry

This yet again is a wake-up call for those who haven't installed SP2. Any machines running a copy of XP without SP2 are saying 'Come and get me', as there are so many gaping threats.

Mark Sunner

The only thing I would say is that when you play Wake, you have to pick your poison. We tried to close the perimeter down and left our post on an island. It's no fun being on an island with Eric Williams. He's going to push you into the ocean. He's a terrific player. I told him before the game I was so proud of the way he's developed his body and his stamina.

Jerry Wainwright

I wake my wife up at 3 a.m. and say, 'Listen to this!'

Barry Hannah

There are moments where I think that we made an amazing record and I'm so proud of it, but I don't wake up and go, "Wow, I'm amazing.

Gwen Stefani

The moment I wake up, Before I put on my make up, I say a little prayer for you.

Aretha Franklin

China's ambitious weapons modernization and reforms in military doctrine are aimed at promoting vast increases in its comprehensive national power, ... a wake-up call to the administration, to Congress, to the Taiwan government and to our friends and allies in the Asia-Pacific region that . . . China stands poised to assert itself as the pre-eminent power in the Asia-Pacific region.

John Tkacik

I love that feeling of being in love, the effect of having butterflies when you wake up in the morning. That is special.

Jennifer Aniston

I'm extremely disappointed, ... The result is a translation of what's going on on the field. I cannot mention one player who had a good day. If we want to think about the playoffs coming up, right now we have to wake up and make sure this thing never happens again.

Peter Nowak

It's not normal to wake up at age 37 and decide to kill three women.

Clinton Van Zandt

I will be very calm because I am dreaming this so I will wake up in five minutes in Sarajevo. I'm dreaming that I'm here on this stage and dreaming that I'm here in Berlin.

Jasmila Zbanic

Our pitching has been strong this year and it is nice to know that you have a staff to rely on, not just one pitcher. When you have strong pitching and good defense, it is easier to win games. To now have our offense wake up will be very good for us.

Leigh Ross

I wake up some mornings and sit and have my coffee and look out at my beautiful garden, and I go, 'Remember how good this is. Because you can lose it.'

Jim Carrey

The models we had were not terribly alarming about Greenland. This paper is a real wake-up call.

Richard Alley

True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.

Kurt Vonnegut

Mick has to get up in the morning with a plan. Who he's going to call, what he's going to eat, where he's going to go. Me, I wake up, praise the Lord, then make sure all the phones are turned off. If we were a mum-and-pop operation, then he'd be Mum.

Keith Richards

Each location was told to expect as many as 500, making a total of 1,500 for our state. So far, the number of people with medical needs has been small enough in Raleigh that the Wake County transport units have been able to handle them.

Robert Cardwell

This is kind of a wake-up call to help people understand what's out there. I think consumers are increasingly aware of how vulnerable their data is in these databases.

Katherine Albrecht

Either way, this incident is a wake-up call to the industry because it highlights the problems we face if we don't do diligence with this new technology.

Andrew Maynard

I don't need a baby growing inside me for nine months. For one thing, there's morning sickness. If I'm going to feel nauseous and achy when I wake up, I want to achieve that state the old fashioned way: getting good and drunk the night before.

Ellen DeGeneres

Don't wake me for the end of the world unless it has very good special effects.

Roger Zelazny

I have always felt that the moment when first you wake up in the morning is the most wonderful of the twenty-four hours.

Monica Baldwin

A wake-up call, sometimes it's needed. Andy was here a long time. If we didn't make the playoffs, there was going to be changes - players, personnel, everybody.

Craig Conroy

Our nation recommitted itself to making manned space flight as safe as possible after the Challenger explosion. But these efforts have lagged amid the budget pressures and cuts of recent years. Now, in the wake of this new tragedy, we need to make a new commitment. And we must live up to it.

Bill Nelson

To a certain extent, Microsoft always has conflicts in how it deals with partners, and Symantec and McAfee won't be any different. You go to bed with a sleeping giant and he might just wake up and crush you.

Peter Firstbrook

St. Paul Travelers has the resources available to respondimmediately to the hurricane's impact, even in the wake of HurricaneKatrina. We know many of our customers are stillrecovering from Katrina, and we will continue to service ourpolicyholders even as we react to a second storm. Our Catastrophe Teamis expressly designed to be on the ground and highly responsive whenour customers need us most.

Ray Stone

We had Wake Forest down 17 points in the second half and lost. I still remember (Wake coach) Bones (McKinney) and his red socks. We should have won that game. We had four 80 percent foul shooters, but we didn't have a slow-down game.

Bud Cronin

We didn't come up there with any bombs. We were trying to wake the country up and wake the world up too.

John Carlos

I was tormented. Fear and trembling. And a sense of doom. A literal belief in hell. Hell for eternity. With devils chasing you for eternity with pitchforks. I trembled. I couldn't go to sleep for fear I might die and wake up in hell. I was in agony.

Frank Mccourt

Well, I have had so many wake-up calls, but finally you wake up. I finally woke up.

Peter Boyle

The potential for him to be a leader of significant reform in the wake of this corrupt Congress is very great. We want the parties to fight over who has the best reform. It will be interesting to watch and see if he takes advantage of the opportunity.

Robert Borosage

This petition should be a wake-up call to those claiming that the Columbia Basin salmon can be recovered without significant change. We should focus on identifying solutions to the challenges we face, such as improving water use efficiency and finding alternative means of providing the economic benefits of the lower Snake River dams.

Rob Masonis

We've got to turn it around or our season's going to slip away. It was a real wake-up call (Thursday).

Curtis Terry

For the program, for the school, it's our biggest win. It's going to wake some people up.

Joanne Boyle

All men dream...... But not equally..Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find it is vanity;but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men,for they act their dreams with open eyes to make it possible.....

T. E. Lawrence

They're in my league, I've seen them for four years, and they're special kids. You don't wake up one morning and play that way. It's taken a lot of time and effort and they've earned everything they get. I'm pulling for them with all my heart and strength. I'm proud for the Hartford school.

Al Ford

When we consider that it is small business that drives the economy — to have that engine resting on the backs of millions of uninsured workers is a bad proposition for the U.S. economy. This has to be seen as a wake-up call to policymakers and healthcare providers as it puts an increasing burden on an already frayed safety net.

Peter Lee

It's a great day for a swim in Spirit Lake! ... If three cups of coffee didn't wake you up, this will.

Charlie Crisafulli

As for listening to other recordings - that's just about all that I do. I listen to everyone. First thing when I wake up, I turn my set on.

Ben Webster

A wake-up call in terms of acting quickly to get things done in a world where not only consumer tastes are changing rapidly but so is the competitive landscape.

Bill Pecoriello

There are benefits to having people living downtown, ... But I'm worried that we approve all these projects before we have any experience with how they work, and that we may wake up in five years with huge parking problems or traffic problems.

Jack Campbell

Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

We have the technology, ... We wake up and we're in a great spot.

Steve Appleton

The goal is to hold these companies accountable for the profiteering they did in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.

Dan Leistikow

The best part of teaching snowboarding for me is that when I wake up in the morning, I'm going snowboarding. I love snowboarding so much, it's ridiculous.

Danny Martin

I knew the McCarty kid would stay strong. I knew he wouldn't get very tired, but I was hoping we would eventually wake up with the bats.

Jeremy Mabry

Pitching-wise, I can't tell you who the 1,2,3,4 guys are. I wake up in the morning and wonder who we will go with. That is how it will be until we get our pitching established. But we have four pretty good arms.

Johnny Olsen

If China gets into WTO first, Taiwan should quickly follow in China's wake. Probably within a month... as after this period China will gain voting rights.

Spencer White

But the recent bombings [in London] are a wake-up call to all nations that we have to do more. If you look through the prism of no new terror incidents occurring in this country, it gives some degree of confidence to people, but that should not lull us back to sleep. They can strike at a moment's notice.

Mark Foley

It wasn't like the movies, where you wake up from a coma and pick up where you left off. It's like him growing up all over again.

Andrea Okomski

For hope is but a dream for those that wake.

Matthew Prior

I have been so impressed with the morale and the spirit of the employees of OSH, especially in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Through all the devastation and personal loss, the employees continued providing outstanding care here at OSH. That speaks volumes about the dedication of our staff.

Kevin Holland

It was definitely a wake-up call for us, so I have to look back and take it as a positive. It wasn't a positive that night, but we thought of that game as a fluke. I mean, eighth graders don't shoot that bad.

Tom Cappel

You can only make political music if you have a context. . . . You cannot make political music in a vacuum. It'd be like me writing songs now about Margaret Thatcher. It'd just make no sense. But I think in the wake of 9-11 people are trying to articulate their feelings.

Billy Bragg

That's been a very big obstacle for us to try to overcome because one day the wind's out of the south/southwest, and you wake up the next morning and it's out of the northwest or the north, so we've always got this shifting wind we have to deal with.

Mary Leathers

In general, there is a great disappointment that the dollar hasn't rallied in the wake of the Brazil package.

Lisa Finstrom

Tonight's game was kind of a wake-up call for us. The kids know we're going to come out focused, starting [today], and get back on track.

Dave Beebe

I can trash talk every day of the week. No one talks more than me. I was born trash talking. When the doctor first spanked me to wake me up, I was talking trash, telling him he better not hit me like that again. I was even doing it in Little League.

David Irons

The truth is that this particular ideology was persecuted terribly, and had to put up with tremendous pain and suffering in order to believe what they believe. It's very important to know that we're capable of this, to wake ourselves up.

Brenda Strong

That's pretty extreme upward pressure on resale prices in Wake County, which puts Durham County in a situation where it's presenting an exceptional value to the buyer in that more moderate price range. There's a lack of supply in Wake County that's being fulfilled in Durham County.

Bernard Helm

Had the terrorists had any residual ability to strike in the US they would have done it in the wake of Katrina and with the 9/11 anniversary, but all they could do was make a tape.

Ralph Peters

America, wake up. Europe is at war, and we are in it.

Steve Buyer

I sincerely believe that other maps exist and books exist [that support the claims], but no one has been paying attention to them. It is my purpose to try to wake these [scholars] up.

Liu Gang

Put the two of them together in the wake of .

Howard Sherman

Brandon really pitched well all game. That first inning his defensive just didn't help him out. That was kind of a wake up call for us. He threw strikes and kept us in the ball game.

Costa Aguilar

The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.

Paul Valery

I know he played on the last record but I don't wake up in the middle of the night thinking of Eric Clapton.

Jack Bruce

You have to be prepared for the unthinkable and, in this case, we were not prepared. Every community in America should use this as a wake-up call.

Mike Fox

To me, this is the ultimate proof that if you have a strong commitment to your goals and dreams, if you wake up every day with a passion to do your job or your sport, everything is possible.

Chantal Petitclerc

If you want to coach, then that should be what you do, ... You have to want to wake up in the morning and watch tapes. I wanted to read books.

James Mckean

I was an athletic person, ... One day I wake up and my legs are swollen. I thought I had a hernia. They told me it was my kidney. I felt tired all the time. It was hard to work.

Black Rob

In some ways, it's a wake-up call. We may be able to motivate people who are with us to voice their opinion ...

Jackie Payne

So are we lost or do we know Which direction we should go Sit around and wait for someone to take our hands and lead the way Cause every day we're getting older And every day we all get colder We're sick of waiting for our answers Wake up, Wake up, Wake up, Yeah I'm so tired of waiting, waiting for us to Wake up, Wake up, Wake up, Yeah I'm so .

Lost Prophets

I'll never forget her eyes as she sat there dying looking at me. When I sleep at night, I can see her. When I wake up, I can see her.

Cynthia Lee

I'm excited that the team understands the importance of this game. Maybe this weekend was a wake up call for us.

Maggie White

Keep us, Lord, so awake in the duties of our callings that we may sleep in Thy peace and wake in Thy glory.

John Donne

This performance this weekend, even though we had a win over Iowa, we aren't going to tolerate. We have to use this as a wake-up call. I'd rather have it here than at the NCAA tournament. It's going to be a long ride back home.

Troy Sunderland

You're living in tents. You're basically working from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to sleep. It's one of the most rewarding things I've ever done.

Heidi Fieselmann

This was a wake-up call. We're expecting to have a real good season and finish high in conference, and this is just telling us we have to work harder.

Tanja Speaker

It's all about wake turbulence. If you can control that wake turbulence [by using wings and different end plates] you can give the driver following more control and ability to pass and run side by side.

Gary Nelson

I could see why a guy could be knocked unconscious. I didn't understand why he didn't wake up right away. ... I remember him getting wheeled off the field on that cart and just looking at him. He just looked asleep, and unfortunately, what transpired was the worst thing I could think of.

Tony Wragge

They say the brain heals for up to two years. He's going through different stages of coming out of it. They tell us he could wake up one day and be normal, or not wake up at all.

Brent Nelson

She beat me earlier in the year, and I guess I was overconfident in that match. So I needed the wake-up call.

Toni Rogers

We had to wake them up to get them out of the house.

Delores Gonzalez

I don't set goals. Like, that's what I want to be doing however many years from now. I do what I love to do at the moment. If I wake up tomorrow and decide I want to dance, that's what I'd do. Or design clothes.

Ayumi Hamasaki

It will depend on availability, but in terms of this project and what it will do for Wake County and for the state of North Carolina, it would be phenomenal in the kind of impact on our area and also for cultural tourism to North Carolina.

Jennifer Weiss

If I can wake up everyday before I die and know that I don't have to serve anyone food or drinks, I will be happy!

Kelly Clarkson

We didn't play well and I hope it's a wake-up call for this next game because it's going to be a tough game for us. If we play like this, we don't have a chance. Boyle County will take it to us and we'll go to the house.
