I'm not calling [William] Weld a skunk. But if you get into a certain kind of contest, you get your shoes wet. I'm not going to pick up his challenge. What he would like most in the world is for me to fire back so he could fire back.

It's more likely William and Harry have one. I haven't got one.

They handled William & Mary pretty well. We've got our hands full trying to stop the triple option. (Quarterback) Jayson Davis is healthy. We've got our hands full again.

Sean Mcdonnell

In the first place, the market provision of 'security' generates its own paranoid demand. 'Security' becomes a ... prestige symbol. Secondly, as William Whyte has observed of social intercourse in New York, 'fear proves itself'. The social perception of threat becomes a function of the security mobilization itself, not crime rates.

Mike Davis

Good morning. Fighting fires. California firefighters try to stop a ferocious wild fire from crossing a freeway and burning its way to the ocean. Under fire: Former Education Secretary William Bennett feeling the heat for saying this on the radio:.

Katie Couric

When you have a team like we have right now, it's very important the person that you're handing the team over to is qualified and is going to have your respect from day one.

William Kelly

William makes it look easy, but he's a kid that practices hard. He runs relaxed and the first guy is not going to tackle him. He's got great balance. And the offensive line is the strength of our football program.

Wayne Tartline

I am very proud of William Kushner. He should prove to be a great asset to Berwyn.

Mark Weiner

I doubt if the average Englishman felt himself as much oppressed by Charles I as by the plague; or if any colonial American was as much in dread of taxation without representation as of smallpox. And it may reasonably be contended that Walter Reed and William Crawford Gorgas brought to man freedom in a more happy sense and in a larger measure than any military or political leader.

Mark Sullivan

Simply because they are part of Prince William County's history. It would be great if some of them were kept in the area.

Hill Denson

It's a big number. But I suppose that's what William Hill takes in four days during the Cheltenham festival. And football betting, especially from Asia, is growing.

Nigel Parson

She's not even referred to until her husband's death in 1903. And even then it's only as 'Mrs. William Dewey.

Wendy Miller

William H. Rehnquist is by nature quiet and humble. His legacy is that he has shown us how to disagree with civility.

Douglas W. Kmiec

I appreciate the support [school president Dr. William E. Cooper] and [Athletic Director] Jim Miller have given me, the confidence they have in me, and I think this is an indication that they are satisfied with the direction of the program.

Dave Clawson

Chief Justice (William) Rehnquist was brilliant at enhancing that position, and Congress has played a major role in adding to the authority of the chief justice. In many respects, Rehnquist changed the job, so that its breadth is greater than it has ever been before.

Judith Resnik

William Carey is an extremely athletic team. They are not big, but they make up for their lack of size with their quickness, and they do a great job of creating opportunities with their up-tempo defense. We need to handle their pressure and get the ball inside.

Kevin Engellant

It was just one of those nights where things just worked out, the timing was there, the blocking was there, it's very unusual that something like this happens, but it did and we're real happy for him. William deserves everything he gets out there and I'm sure he'll tell you the offensive line takes the credit for his offense and also the returns go to the special teams.

Ted Spadaro

There's no question that Roberts will vote like William Rehnquist, ... If he swings, it will be from right to far right.

Mark Ward

[Other Republicans echoed Specter's dismay.] I am disappointed that Gov. William Weld did not receive a hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, ... The advice and consent procedure provided by our Constitution strongly suggests that many Senators will want to question a presidential nominee and that the nominee will have an opportunity to respond to public questions and criticism.

Richard Lugar

Before he left, Aunt William pressed a sovereign into his hand guiltily, as if it were conscience money. He, on his side, took it as though it were a doctor's fee, and both ignored the transaction.

Ada Leverson

He coached me in AAU basketball as a kid. He missed maybe one of my games that I can think of. He was amazing. He'd drive to watch my sister Kate in Syracuse and then to Massachusetts and then back to William Paterson to watch Bridget. He always loved being a part of it.

Brian Brennan

Opposition to this merger just adds to the list of (Federal Communications Commission Chairman William) Kennard-Klein policies that ultimately will reduce innovation and choice and raise the cost of telephone services for residential customers, particularly those in rural America.

Bernard J. Ebbers

He is a great artist. He may be the finest artist among American writers since William Faulkner and Henry James. There's the endless variety of modes he works in. His style, his stance, his point of view.

Harold Bloom

I'm glad he had the game he did. If not, it would probably have been a different game as hard as (William and Mary) played. They definitely played harder than us.

Jeff Capel

It is a competitive threat to other players like William Hill and Rank, but it's only mildly negative for them.

Robin Chhabra

They coach their quarterbacks as well as anyone in the country. That's just a given at William and Mary. They have a special touch to grow and mature quarterbacks.

Tim Stowers

You don't know who the new justice will be - or whether that justice will be there - and you have more uncertainly about John Roberts than you had with William Rehnquist.

Erwin Chemerinsky

On behalf of Charles, William, Harry and all my family and of all the Spencer family with us today.

Earl Spencer
