Rene Cook

I think at that point we were aspiring to be a Led Zeppelin kind of a band where you could pick up your acoustic instruments or you could go out and rock or you could play a country song.

You're looking at a guy who got shot nine times and who barely survived being indicted by murder for perjury? Wow.

Here's a guy who survived death row, who was wrongly convicted.

It's about having a second chance, ... There are a lot of people in there that survived. So you try to let them know that they survived for a reason and you still have a lot to give this country.

Yet he had been there longer and survived more turbulent times in this region perhaps is something that hurts him and perhaps something he cannot remedy in the remaining time and he's way past his sell-by-date.

They survived intact up to the 19th century, but, now, it?s estimated that 80 percent of the once-extant ?mounds? have been destroyed due to farming, looting, highways and sprawl. Made of earth, they were easy to alter or erase.

Karen Baker

It took my breath away for a moment, but I survived.

Michael W. Smith

You can't comprehend what is happening. And then all hell breaks loose. Things drop, walls crumble, dishes fall over, people are buried, people on one side of the bed could be killed and the other hardly touched. Who got injured, killed and survived was completely random.

Philip Fradkin

Would he have survived the heart attack? That is difficult to say, but it certainly did not help.

Wayne Shelor

The Taliban have very smartly survived through these peace agreements.

Rahimullah Yusufzai

It speaks to the level of district play. Whoever is standing when it's over will feel like they survived a 15-round heavyweight fight. For our tournament, it will be who is standing after 12 quarters.

Tommy Tonelli

We told our guys at halftime, keep pushing the issue, make them play fast. I think they survived the first run, they survived one in the second, but that third one, they had nothing for it.

Chris Nichols

This report shows that there has been a breach of trust -- the trust offered by these supporters in the names of the people who suffered and survived the tsunami.

He fell on top of me, so I pretended to be dead. That's how I survived -- that's how I survived that night. The rest of the story is just a long story.

Grace Mukasekuru

I told the team last night this isn't about winning or losing. At the end of the year, our message has to be that we persevered. If we go 11-0 ... if we go 0-11 ... they're not going to know our record. They're going to know we persevered. For the millions of people affected in our environment — the ones who survived — it's going to give them some hope. Because right now there is no hope.

Chris Scelfo

Relay for Life is an opportunity for residents to come together as a community to support community members who have survived cancer, who are fighting cancer, and to remember those who lost their battle with cancer.

I read all these stories that I don't know anything about politics. But I must know something. I've had some good victories in Congress, and I've survived this town for four years.

Donald T. Regan

Apple's really the only company from the early days of personal computing that's still around in the same form. Having survived this long, it's likely to continue - they've got a great brand and some very loyal consumers.

Owen Linzmayer

[It has been a frantic time, this year of Africa. The other members of the band love the cause but they fret that Bono's hobby is eclipsing his day job.] The band has survived, ... but there's been a price in terms of relationships.

Rudy Meredith

But there is still a lot of information there. There were a lot of components that survived.

Tim Sorensen

Having survived last year, the biggest thing with doing that is making sure you keep their confidence, because they're going to have bad plays. These guys have done tremendous jobs. They play with great confidence. They understand things. That experience from last year has done nothing but help them.

Kerry Cooks

We survived this one. We're not clicking yet. We've had spurts and thank goodness we had a spurt at the end of the game.

William Teague

The empty suits at UAL world headquarters are dropping their bags of money only long enough to pat themselves on the back for a job well done. The fact is that United survived in spite of its current leadership, not because of it.

Randy Canale

Those photo albums where in the laundry room, and that's where (investigators) said the fire started. Everything else inside that room was burned beyond recognition, just like most things everywhere else in the house. How those photo albums survived, I have no idea.

Ginger Mullins

Howl has certainly proved that the East Village sense of community has survived intact.

Phil Hartman

The culture survives. It's survived slavery. It's survived everything so far?. I don't think you can stop the dance. I don't think you can drown the dance. We dance at funerals, and now we have to dance at our own funeral.

Mark Wallace

He also orchestrated the sale to Chemical Bank, which brought $1.4 billion of shareholder value when everybody else was selling out for nothing. I think TCB would have survived and struggled with the Texas economy, but Ben had the foresight to say let's join up with a stronger partner and not go through the agony of other banks. Why fight this battle alone?

Phil Conway

The city is not going anywhere. The heart of the city's economy survived. It will be a different place in many ways. It's a great opportunity to build a great city and correct some of our problems. But if you're not optimistic, then you should get out.

Bob Becker

We survived round one, and now we've got to go do battle with another heavyweight team.

Dean Montzingo

You can still see a fragment of the north stone wall of the house. Amazingly, the building survived until the 1930s when its great hall was turned into a car showroom. Now it's part of a modern block of luxury flats.

Jonathan Foyle

I'm amazed at how well she looks. She always was a fit cat, otherwise she wouldn't have survived 14 days in that hole.

Peter Myers

Some of the worst companies have been the best performers. But a lot of the recovery in the poorer-quality companies was just relief that they survived. We're finally starting to see some better action in the higher-quality names.

Kent Mergler

We have survived. There is plenty of living to do.

Scott Sword

I did OK here, ... me and old cat survived.

John Gerard

The creative adult is the child who has survived.

Ursula K. LeGuin

Russ Biundo

This is the only one that survived 9/11. After that everyone said they wanted to stay close to home. The police department loves it because it helps calm everything down.

Elie Wiesel

Those who survived are separated for the first third of the season.
