Steven Wright

Andrew Thompson
She is descended from a long line that her mother listened to.

Michael Buble
We made our free throws; we were 21-of-23 from the line, so that was encouraging.

Dave Stevens
Our defense helped set that up and our offensive line fired off the ball.

Rod Fuller
There is a very fine line between loving life and being greedy for it.
Maya Angelou

Jerry Groves
The Huns cross Europe, raping and pillaging, ... You know? That's only half a line, so that must take 12 seconds.

We have our D-line back, injury-free, and those guys are keeping the linemen off us at linebacker and allowing us to make plays. We weren't able to do that last year.

Bryan Harris

Darryl Paulson
There's not a lot of big kids in this [senior] class, ... So it's, 'I better get involved [early], or else I'm not going to have a chance to get them.' It's their ability and potential down the line.

The bottom line, we want to ensure our players have the appropriate footwear. But we also have to change the mind-set.
Steve Antonopulos
The supreme accomplishment is to blur the line between work and play.
Arnold Toynbee

Terry Stokes
The worst of the earnings news is probably out of the way and expectations are probably back in line.

Jared Allen
Everyone is looking at what the impact of energy prices will be on the bottom line.
Lex Bouwmeester

Joni Mitchell
We hope to throw it around more, too, ... Especially since we don't have that seasoned offensive line.

It's really an honor to help raise a memorial for the guys who fell in the line of duty.
George Wendt
It was tough and these kids didn't give up. We hit a couple shots and some foul shots, got a couple steals and a couple charges. They laid it on the line.
Larry Boomer
Kyle makes all the line calls. You watch him. He'll get up to the line, look at the defense and start barking out calls. He's irreplaceable.
Jeff Carnazzo
They clearly came in stronger than we expected. The marquee footwear line has been very strong.
John Shanley
The hospitals keep asking me to pay, but I just tell them to get in line with the other hospitals. I pay what I can and everyone has just been so generous.

Jeremy Duxbury
There is a fine line, ... Men and women alike could look at him, and if he's too much of a sad sack, they will think, 'Dude, get a life.' .
Mary Parent
It's really God's intention that we come together and be one. Every line you think of that would divide people — those lines are being crossed.
Karen Harris
He was a huge part of this win. He took it upon himself to drive to the basket and score or go to the free-throw line and score.
Scott Flemming
It was really huge. If we didn't have Charlie coming back for his fifth year, it puts our offensive line in a really bad predicament.
Tony Ierulli
The first year was a challenge because only a few of us had ever seen a dance line before. We were very green. We took 17th place out of 17 teams the first year.
Cindy Clough
The Samsung announcement is still in line with our estimate.
Klaus Rinnen
It's a growing business for us, and now we have a full product line.
David Richerby
Big studio conglomerates are concerned about the bottom line, not awards. It used to be that a studio would make a movie that appealed both commercially and artistically. That's not the case now.

That's her on the line, ... She was supposed to be quiet. All three of us were crying.
Dolores Johnson
You have to make shots. That's the bottom line.
Pat Summitt
Crossing the finish line was a historic moment for diesel technology.
