But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

Wilbur Wright
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 saw that we lost the first game after I left. I try to keep in contact with those guys. Some of my coaches and Bracey (Wright) are going to come to the Miami game, so I'm looking forward to seeing them again.
Dwayne Jones
Frank Lloyd Wright liked to use materials indigenous to the area for his designs. Even though the stone and wood are from Mexico, the same rock is available nearby. It was just too hard to quarry here.
Shannon O'brien
From the outside, it's not different at all. We've gone to painstaking measures to make sure it is what Wright would have wanted.
Patrick J. Mahoney
One of the (Wright State) assistant coaches told me to get in touch with them when I decided what I wanted to do. I called them back Saturday and that happened to be the day they were playing Bowling Green.
Dan Penick
We've watched three of their games on film. They play in a very good league and finished second. Their 6-foot-9 kid (Ronald Wright) leads the country in blocked shots. They have great size and they're an excellent shooting team.
Craig Smith
We have to play Wright State again at their place. It's not going to be easy.
John Hurley
He was a workhorse, on both sides of the football. He ran the ball hard, and was a focal point, shutting down the field at middle linebacker. Missing Renner makes him the featured back. Having him and Mark Wright as the one-two punch, that's still a pretty solid rushing attack.
Kevin Ghee
We did a great job down the stretch shooting free throws. What can you say about Trey Wright. He is a junior who weighs only about 110 pounds, but we put him in to shoot free throws and he made two great free throws. Austin Fox and Dannon hit two big ones as well.
Cameron Watson
This is not Southwest Airlines' airport. As there are further relaxations of the Wright Amendment, we will compete more. There is space at this airport to grow.
David Cush
They helped us out a little bit right there. And Wright came through with a great clutch hit. You like to see that from a sophomore.
Jeremy Mabry
[The Europeans declared that they were finding the Americans` pace of play too slow. Ian Wright said:] Naming no names - Michael Chang ... I`m going to buy him a 36 hour watch.
Chris Evans
I hope I never have to watch that Pop Wright shoot like that again.
Nolan Richardson
I ask all the kids to give me their schedule and I see as many as possible. I went to see Kristen Wright in a nine-year-old league and she made the winning shot at the buzzer when I was there. We had been working on her shot, so I felt I had made an impact. It was a great feeling for her and for me too.
Gary Battle
Coach Wright has mastered the art of getting the highest level of performance from his players. By finishing as co-champions in a very competitive Big East and making a great run in the tournament, coach Wright proved he deserves to hold the Naismith Award this season.
Gary Stokan
We are going to have to fight for balls in the air. Wright State will be very good in the air, and their goalie can punt the ball a long way.
Marci Miller
We knew we had to put some pressure (on Wright) tonight for us to win.
Kamerion Wimbley
For example, a Frank Lloyd Wright building of a certain period will most likely share many traits with his other buildings of the same period.
Dave Freer
Coming from behind to win against a good team like Murray-Wright gives us confidence heading into the PSL playoffs next week. It gives us some momentum.
James Reynolds
Do you think this is in the back of the Republicans' minds now that it happened to Jim Wright, 'Oh oh, we better take steps to make sure that doesn't happen here,'.
Lesley Stahl
Once we identified Curtiss-Wright and saw some of the things it had accomplished for the U.S. Navy, we knew we had a good fit. There are other great industrial motor manufacturers out there, but Curtiss-Wright had the best combination of high tech motor and engineering expertise for this project.
Harry Miller
There's nothing more demoralizing than losing, and then you lose your starting quarterback. I think that just added to the fire, even though Anthony [Wright, Boller's backup] came in and did a good job.
Derrick Mason
We haven't worked together yet. We each have been doing our own section of the concert and will put it together later. Then there is the little stuff; I have responsibility for the programs and things like that while Wright is dealing more with the technical stuff.
Alice Howes
Ben Wright also ran a pretty good race. He's progressing nicely.
Ian Battles
It's one thing to support the Wright Amendment. It's another thing to support shutting down your home-district airport. What about the people who work at Dallas Love? What about the people who travel from Dallas Love? What about the companies that operate out of Dallas Love? Her decision smacks of heavy-handed government at its absolute worst.
Sam Johnson
It's not very often you get to beat Wright in a race like that.
Gary Wright
Dorrell Wright, he's a young guy. I hear he's a good defender.
Jeff Malone
If the Wright Brothers were alive today, Orville would have to lay off Wilbur.
Robert Crandall
Coach (Jay) Wright says there are always extra opportunities when other players aren't hitting their shots. If you're patient, it'll come.
Kyle Lowry
This is a result of the incremental repeal of the Wright amendment.
Brian Schwartz
This was a true, total team effort. We have been excelling in short passes from the defense to midfield to offense. We were more patient with our decision to finish. Rachel Wright did a great job penetrating the defense and creating opportunities for others to score.
Reza Ghasemi
I think we did a better job on their other kids. Donald is a great player, but we didn't allow any of their other kids to get going. Last time, Lincoln Wright had 24 against us. We let Donald get his, but we kept the other players down tonight, and that was the key.
Dean O'connor
My grandfather Frank Lloyd Wright wore a red sash on his wedding night. That is glamour!
Anne Baxter
We continue to believe that changes to the Wright Amendment will negatively impact local businesses, the economy and potentially thousands of jobs throughout North Texas.
David Cush
I'd say Wright State does not help because there are no mandatory classes on those sorts of things. If I was a business major I would be better prepared since I would have to take classes that teach such basic skills, but since I am not I have to fend for myself.
Christopher Reid
The people of Wright deserve every bit of help they can get, and I hope that this federal declaration may provide a significant part of that.
Dave Freudenthal
It seems to me extremely dubious to be constructing buildings based on drawings by Wright as if these are actually Wright's works.
Michael Kimmelman
Davis did a great job. They've got great size and have great quickness in their guards. (Darts' coach) Amy (Wright) has done a great job over there. We're going to have to see them again and I'm not looking forward to that at all.
Rob Reisbeck
In the fall of 1999, ... then-mayor John Wright, I, and Betty Feinberg were frustrated by the process. She was tired, I was tired, but we wanted to make things work. And for a time, it did. At some point it stopped working- we can cast blame, but that won't do anybody any good. Right now, we have an agreement before us tonight - I hope you see fit to approve the agreement.
Aaron Brown
Flying an airplane over Mars has been brewing with other folks since the '70s. We had an administrator, Dan Golden, who wanted to do a centennial flight, the 100th anniversary of the Wright brothers. He wanted to fly an airplane on Mars, but that was too quick for the time or not cheap enough or what have you.
Mark Croom
Shaun Wright-Phillips is the heart and soul of this club and he has a very big heart for Manchester City, Wardle said.
Shaun Wright phillips
This region breeds intellectual discussion and thought; without that we wouldn't have the Wright Brothers.
Dr. Yvonne Seon
He looked great. I'm really pleased with Wright.
George Steinbrenner
Wright and Hammond usually are our No. 2 and No. 3 scorers. Tomorrow will be a better day.
Shelley Davis
We're really lucky we have John Wright playing the father, and he's wonderful.
James Brewer
That was particularly disappointing. You couldn't get a nicer person than Keith Wright but the time comes when enough is enough.
Gordon Mcdougall
Say what you want, but people wanted to see Bobby Huggins there and losing Bobby will be difficult for the league, ... Jay [Wright at Villanova] is coming along, but as far as national reputations, you've got the three of us [Calhoun, Boeheim and Pitino].
Jim Calhoun
Wright is their best player; he makes plays. They run a lot of misdirection with that offense. On defense, they play hard, physical and aggressive.
Dave Everson
This kind of drawing was in a lot of Sullivan and Adler buildings, and once Wright leaves their offices, this kind of ornament disappears altogether, but reappears in Wright's independent projects. So this is probably his design.
Tim Samuelson
The Wright brothers flew through the smoke screen of impossibility.
Dorothea Brande
This is the most complete, original Frank Lloyd Wright-designed house in the world. It has more original furnishings and windows and fixtures. It's important that we have these (renovation) projects, because that will help keep these original historical materials in the best possible condition.
Dave Blanchette
Curtiss-Wright is a good neighbor and a company that has the ability to keep these doors open and grow.
John Painter
I feel a little better now. These guys (Mackey and Wright) picked it up and they were listening to me more in the corner.
Rick Carrillo
The contracts mark the transition of support for the C-130J from the acquisition community at ASC (Aeronautical Systems Center, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio) to Robins. We officially opened our doors on Wednesday. This is new workload for us.
Wayne Ayer
With Eduardo Castro-Wright making changes at the helm, we believe Wal-Mart is reaching an inflection point that will take the company to the next level of growth and profitability.
Deborah Weinswig
Nevertheless, Wyoming legislators will continue to explore other methods of providing support to victims of the hurricane, the Wright tornado and our residents who will be paying higher fuel and energy costs.
Randall Luthi
The inside is not completely determined as to what Wright wanted, because his drawings were not detailed enough.
Patrick J. Mahoney
UMS-Wright played hard and they were the better team. We will start over and we will now focus on doing well in the postseason wherever we play.
Jerome Antone
[Wright will get to experience all the color and pageantry of this storied rivalry up close when he tries to help the ninth-ranked Hurricanes extend their winning streak over the 'Noles to seven games.] Everybody has a story about this game, ... I'm hoping to create one for myself.
Kyle Wright
Wright State University offers a unique asset to the community through its health professions schools. We have long-term cooperative relationships with the region's health care professionals and hospitals, including federal institutions at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the Veteran's Administration.
Glenn Hamilton
Our guys played so hard. But give credit to Coach (Jim) Les and Lawrence Wright and Bradley. They made one more play than we did.
Steve Merfeld
Billy Connors was just great. He brought Jaret Wright along great, was patient and he stuck to him with great success.
George Steinbrenner
Does Dallas what to double the number of frequencies out of this airport? That's, very simply, what you can count on with further relaxation or elimination of the Wright Amendment.
David Cush
What we want to do is serve as a resource for factual information for all of the issues surrounding the Wright Amendment, Love Field, the history. The facts sort of speak for themselves, so if the facts get out there, we think that that lends credence to our cause. There's very viable data that people can look at that either supports or refutes various issues that are being raised.
Anthony Page
He [Gingrich] used that against [then-House Speaker] Jim Wright and the Democrats. That phrase is now coming back to haunt them. It is not whether anyone did anything wrong; it is the perception that develops, and there is nothing that they can do about it.
Tony Coelho
It feels good to win. [Wright] beat me before, and I went out there and got first. I am real proud. I was more aggressive tonight. People make it seem like county is a big deal. It's just for bragging rights. I am gunning for that state championship.
Phil Scott
Wright was notoriously ingenious about changing his designs in the process, and these drawings cannot be said to represent anything but one stage in the concept of a design by Wright. So while it's an interesting exercise, it also comes perilously close to kitsch, and even to misrepresenting Wright's genius.
Michael Kimmelman
Colton has Wright and Bradford and Smith, but the big question mark for them is whether they can replace the kids on their offensive line that were so devastating.
Jim Walker
You could write a book or create a mini-series on the making of Taylor vs. Wright. I'll always remember (Mike) Tyson vs. (Lennox) Lewis as the most difficult negotiation we've had at HBO. But this one was like a roller coaster.
Ross Greenburg
Wright State out-pitched us. I told coach (Rob) Cooper that if his team pitches like that all season, his team will win a lot of games.
Paul Mainieri
But anybody with any credibility at the time accepted that was Emmett's body, including the sheriff. He gave the body first to Moses Wright (Till's great-uncle) and then to a black funeral parlor. He later claimed the body was as white as he was, but he didn't think that when the body was found.
David Beito
This is what Wright State needs more of to bring people back to campus on nights and weekends.
Mike George
Jim Wright was one of the best proponents of geography poetry. America is always about neighborhood. Jim Wright's neighborhood was Martins Ferry and the Ohio River.
Michael Harper
After Meghan Wright scored that goal, the game changed again and we were able to reassert ourselves. Stockdale is strong in the air and if you don't neutralize that, you can see the results as they put us under pressure. I'm just glad we were able to withstand the pressure.
Erik Farfan
Kyle Wright was a warrior.
Eric Winston
Defensive effort is energy, and all the credit there goes to coach Wright and Lakewood. He has been doing this a long time, and you know you have to match them blow for blow or you're going to lose by 30.
Elliot Washington
If it was a rookie or some guy who had never started sitting behind Boller, I think there would be some concerns. But knowing what Wright can do -- he's been in this spot before -- that doesn't concern me too much. When he stepped in on Sunday, he kind of picked up where he left off.
Edwin Mulitalo
He was a violinist at Taliesin and I accompanied him. We played tragically older songs; Mr. Wright loved it.
Edgar Tafel
We had seen the house on tours by the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio Foundation, and we fell in love with it. We decided to buy the home, and negotiated for it for more than a year before we closed.
