Stan Conte
I don't think he is somebody you need to be afraid of if you're a liberal ... I don't see him as a person who will be shoving his views down your throat. I think he might surprise a lot of liberals.

Alison Swank
We really felt coming in that having competition within our team would help make everybody play harder, ... It looks like a lot, but that's our goal.

He that has not religion to govern his morality, is not a dram better than my mastiff-dog; so long as you stroke him, and please him, and do not pinch him, he will play with you as finely as may be, he is a very good moral mastiff; but if you hurt him, he will fly in your face, and tear out your throat.

We didn't look very good today. (The offense) drove it right down our throat. Obviously, they were pretty good and we weren't very good. It was across the board - the As, the Bs and the Cs. We've got to play better, that's the bottom line.
Buddy Green

Katharine Whitehorn
I thought it was going to be a real running game because they always say our run defense is not great right now, that they're going to try to run it down our throat.

Resolved to take fate by the throat and shake a living out of her.
Louisa May Alcott
Drinking the [extra virgin] olive oil was exactly the same sensation I felt in Paul's study on ibuprofen. When I returned to Philadelphia, I poured a small cup for Paul and asked him to taste. He realized the same throat-sting.
Gary Beauchamp
It's a cut throat world out there (on the course). It is hard enough on your own but then you've got three guys riding next to you. It is a great spectator sport.
Nate Holland

Mike Conners

John Keats
This thing was shoved down people's throat whether we wanted it or not. You are here to do the will of the people. You know the people would have voted against it.
William Reed

Lynne Roberts
We're not shoving our spiritual beliefs down their throat. We have our convictions that we teach but but we're modeling for them Christ and we're teaching them what He says about life and using His word for foundation for values.

Martin Cohen
It overpowers our property that we are trying to sell and our business that has been there over 150 years. It is good to have some type of religion, as religion is good for the human soul, but I don't like people trying to shove their religion down my throat. That is overkill.
Mike Dowell
Actually, it's not a cut-throat competition. It's more like stress-free tennis.

Alan Anderson
You have to be able to weather the storm. We knew we had a run in us and we knew they had a run in them. We weathered theirs and they couldn't handle our 18 points. That's immense. Give credit to the kids. We didn't slow down the ball, we went right at their throat and we're going to do that from now on.
Tony Falzarano
This game means a lot to our whole team, specifically our defense, because we feel they took advantage of us, ... Every game is very important. I think those guys were the only team that really ran the ball down our throat last year. They really played well.
