The next few months will be critical in determining whether we can put it on. It will depend on how operable New Orleans is, and how much the city's image changes.

Hilery Walker
That's home. You have to live in New Orleans to understand. It's a city of our own, unique and different, not anything like anywhere else.
Charlette Ford
The big deal for us is housing stock. I think New Orleans is going to be very much a smaller city than it was.
Michael Olivier
I'm very excited that our exhibition is coming to Little Rock. I think it will hopefully be helpful in explaining what African art is, and hopefully people that might not normally come to the Arkansas Arts Center will consider it and come and appreciate it.

William Fagaly
The Sacramento area is perhaps, after New Orleans, the scariest spot in the country.

Mark Smith
[Harrah's New Orleans sustained] very little damage, ... We've been very fortunate there.
Gary Loveman
Some of these people are not going home. We have a number from New Orleans who lived in the Ninth Ward, and know they have nothing to go home to. Some have found jobs in our area and are looking for jobs. They're doing all the things they need to be doing to be part of our culture.
Nancy Brown
The musicians will come back. It's going to take a long time, but New Orleans can actually be a better place because of this.

John Tucker
We are going to continue to talk with city and state officials, everybody who will need to be involved in this process. This is totally about New Orleans.

I've thought about stayin' around here. That's on my mind. Don't think I hadn't thought about it, 'cause I have. But it's like a guy at the clinic [at Fort Chaffee] said, 'I like it here, but I ain't gonna lie - I miss New Orleans,'.
Alton Williams
[The disaster in New Orleans] is not an act of god, ... This is an act of man. The federal government refused to spend the money to improve the levees.

The desire to bring conservative, free-market ideas to the Gulf Coast is white hot. We want to turn the Gulf Coast into a magnet for free enterprise. The last thing we want is a federal city where New Orleans once was.
Mike Pence
A huge section of the U.S. economy is down. It's as complicated as the rescue efforts in New Orleans; it's all these different pieces. You have to get electricity restored, find out where your employees are; it's almost a mind-boggling exercise.

Things are not good in New Orleans. It's very serious now.
Richard Zuschlag
The food, the jazz culture, the lovely ladies; I miss everything about New Orleans.

Johnny Thomas
It would be naive for a buyer to assume that's because it's a long way away that these vehicles haven't made it to our state. Likely there are less here than in areas close to New Orleans. But if you were a scam artist, why not go as far away as you can where they're not thinking about it.
Karl Newman
I don't think it has anything to do with New Orleans.
Carl Olson
We will definitely operate normally out of New Orleans. We have not put a time frame on it.

I just got an e-mail from the College Board a few minutes ago. Everyone, including Ed, are fine down in the fifth-floor ballroom of the Sheraton New Orleans.

Bruce Wallace
We got Steve a win this year so the Orleans team has won.
