There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up.

Oscar Wilde

When you understand that what you're telling is just a story. It isn't happening anymore. When you realize the story you're telling is just words, when you can just crumble it up and throw your past in the trashcan, then we'll figure out who you're going to be.

Chuck Palahniuk

Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it you can.

Danny Kaye

So it is with minds. Unless you keep them busy with some definite subject that will bridle and control them, they throw themselves in disorder hither and yon in the vague field of imagination... And there is no mad or idle fancy that they do not bring forth in the agitation.

Michel de Montaigne

Don't throw away your old shoes until you have got new ones.

Dutch Proverb

There is an art, or, rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.

William Arthur Ward

Life is a great big canvas; throw all the paint on it you can.

Danny Kaye

Read, read, read. Read everything - trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it is good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out the window.

William Faulkner

A viler evil than to murder a man, is to sell him suicide as an act of virtue. A viler evil than to throw a man into a sacrificial furnace, is to demand that he leap in, of his own will, and that he build the furnace, besides.

Ayn Rand

I'm going to memorize your name and throw my head away.

Oscar Levant

Bob Hope

I'm mad at Hank Aaron for deciding to play one more season. I threw him his last home run and thought I'd be remembered forever. Now, I'll have to throw him another.

Bill Lee

It was tough, there was no silver spoon in the mouth. I did a five-year apprenticeship starting at 14. You have to prove yourself. They throw you a bit of meat on the bone and if you handle it you go on.

Douglas Whyte

Moral reform is the effort to throw off sleep.

Henry David Thoreau

We did a nice job of forcing them to turn the ball over, but several times we handed it right back to them. We shot real well from the free throw line, which had a big impact on getting another win against a team that had all week to prepare for us.

Derek Sonderland

Most men would feel insulted if it were proposed to employ them in throwing stones over a wall, and then in throwing them back, merely that they might earn their wages. But many are no more worthily employed now.

Henry David Thoreau

We have athletes who get in the same spot on the field (and) freeze. An athlete such as Carson Palmer, who has to sit in there, it reminds me of Joe Namath. There is always the psychological aspect of keeping that foot planted and throwing over that front foot and worrying about getting hit on. It's real.

Angelo Colosimo

Nature has placed mankind under the government of two sovereign masters, pain and pleasure - they govern us in all we do, in all we say, in all we think: every effort we can make to throw off our subjection, will serve but to demonstrate and confirm.

Jeremy Bentham

Throwing sand into the wheels of deeper international economic integration in order to reduce adjustment costs, as contemplated by some, is not an attractive option.

Joaquin Almunia

The credit goes to the defensive line, ... They pressured him all night, and he was constantly throwing off balance. It made our job easier in the backfield.

Brian Bell

We have been throwing and catching real well. But we will do whatever it takes to win. You have to do both (run and pass) well to be balanced.

Bobby Crockett

He's throwing himself at the mercy of this body.

Marc Lubet

They tried to throw it a little more once he got in there. Other than that, it was the same kind of outfit.

Keion Carpenter

The Teddy Bears Child Care Centre has been offered a 24-month lease based on the fact that we gave them an undertaking that we wouldn't throw them out on the street and their solution, to build a new centre, could not be feasibly done in 12 months.

John Hargreaves

I took nothing from my house, ... I've got my purse, and it had some of my important papers, but when I looked inside, it was all wet. It smells like a hurricane smells. I'm just going to throw it away.

Lorraine Brown

I felt like I could throw every pitch with conviction and not worry about my mechanics. The walks today came up and bit me. ... I just couldn't execute my pitches.

Russ Ortiz

However this turns out, the family history and the things that they've done are still going to be outstanding, ... You can't just throw something over after four or five generations of public service and the positions that they've held.

Ray Henderson

The key to our season will be out there on the bump (the pitchers mound). I think we can swing the bat and score runs. The big question will be if we can throw it. If we get some guys to step up and throw some good innings for us we can have a good year.

Joey Sato

Many of us are on a fixed retirement income, but the city keeps throwing these taxes at the homeowners. I think they have too many things on their plate right now, so I definitely will not support this unless they change the tax structure.

Don Puder

We didn't tell the audience that this was a setup, that we were shooting a video, ... It was weird; there was this huge, like, 'Ahhh.' I heard this groan and moan, and then everybody started going 'Booooo' and yelling 'Bull-shit!' and throwing stuff up on the stage. Most people thought that she had been arrested. The song is about trying to find your own freedom.

Butch Vig

He's got a good arm; he can throw in the 90s. He was nervous and tight. He didn't pitch, he threw.

Chuck Hartman

I've always said it takes more courage to stand back there and throw a ball knowing you're fixing to get drilled than anything I can think of in football.

Bobby Bowden

The only thing I really hadn't done was throwing and distance. I really kind of dreaded the distance at first, but I'm getting used to it.

Melissa Talbot

If I had done my job better of preparing these guys, we would have done better. But (Freedom's) soccer, well, wasn't really soccer. They had to rely on free kicks and throw-ins. And for us to lose to a team that plays that type of soccer is very disappointing.

Mark Pearson

It was a really good game, a pretty rough game. Free throw shooting really was the only difficult part of the game.

Kari Williams

This is a good kid from a strong family with a father who wouldn't let him throw away that money. He didn't even get a car until about two years ago. He's an outstanding person.

Dayton Moore

Eric and Lee are going to draw a lot of double teams, so we've got to be able to throw to somebody else, ... As a slot receiver, I've got to get open. But the biggest thing is I've got to catch the ball.

Josh Reed

She's very brave the way she tackles this in the book. She's been given a lot of flak from the right, saying, 'Who'd want you?' But she does deal well with the imperfect fit between men and women. If she was a man, she'd have a ton of people throwing themselves at her.

Katha Pollitt

I told Coach during the walkthrough right before the game that if we got inside the 30-yard line to throw me the fade. We were on the five-yard line and Coach looked at me and said 999, which meant all fades.

Daniel Rumley

This is the time of year you want him throwing this way.

Jack Kokinda

You never want to lose on Wednesday and that can humble you, but I think we need to go into Friday and throw the first punch. It's going to be a harsh environment and they're not going to give anything to us, so we're going to have to figure something out.

Charley Boyce

There's no use having him throw unless he's close. And if that means early September, it's early September.

Brad Arnsberg

It was annoying. I was tired of it. I wanted to throw it off for good, but the coaches told me I had to wear it if I wanted to go back into the game.

Dr. Lawrence Roberts

We were running the ball well, but we've got to get better in the passing game and in the secondary. Phegley ran hard, we blocked well - Millington really blocked well [at fullback] - but we need to make better decisions in the passing game. We have to be able to throw the ball.

Chris Barrett

We knew that if they throw the bomb, they throw it to No. 14 (6-foot-4 senior Stuart Pierce).

Sean Neff

Possibly -- possibly -- Duke, and maybe North Carolina State. I'm not sure that we all aren't fighting for positioning now. I said before the season started that this would be a year where you could throw predictions out the window. I'm not sure you could make calls. You've had a couple of wide margins, but most games could have gone either way. That's the way it is in the ACC.

Leonard Hamilton

I thought Jay did a great job. Of course he made some mistakes, but what was impressive was that he made the correct reads and got the ball to the right guys. Of course it helped that we were never in the position that we had to throw the ball, we threw it only by desire.

Paul Ernest

I had a picture of a seven-year-old throwing a Frisbee around on the grass but it's treated as a spiritual place.

John Archibald Wheeler

We all saw each other throwing, and it made us better. We knew what we were fighting for. But I worked hard for this, and I'm happy to get it.

Josh Hancock

They're in there by the thousands. You could see them literally coming up along the banks. The ones we caught didn't even put a dent in them. We would throw one in the cooler, two others would jump out and we'd have to chase them through the woods.

Mark Hammond

Last week I didn't throw the ball that well. I was up in the zone last week. It worked for me this week. Having a big game like I did (Friday) was big.

Josh Cribb

You can't throw darts anymore. Our parents could buy utilities and it was almost clipping coupons on a bond. Now, there's much more involved.

David Kiefer

When we weren't hitting the ball that was a risk we were going to take. They made a great defensive play and a perfect throw.

Robbie Smith

It was one of those days where she was going to hit the ball no matter who was throwing. She had a solid game from her first at-bat.

Jamie Richardson

I was ready to throw it out on the middle of the field. I was kind of hoping we would have one. I wanted to see how far we could throw that thing.

Hal Mumme

Jake, I'll guarantee you, will do really well. He was indecisive in Arizona, and sometimes he made bad decisions, but he never had the talent around him that he does now. A lot of the interceptions he threw last year were to younger receivers he didn't trust as much, so he hesitated before throwing the pass. Now he's in a great system where that won't be a problem.

David Boston

If I hear Bowie Kuhn say just once more he's doing something for the betterment of baseball, I'm going to throw-up.

Sparky Anderson

Groins are very difficult because they affect the throwing motion, ... It could be more than one weekend.

Ahman Green

There are some people who want to throw their arms round you just because it's Christmas, there are other people who want to strangle you just because its Christmas.

Robert Lynd

He was throwing where he was supposed to be throwing and making his pitches.

Dave Moates

We've been working on relays a lot in practice ? and we've made some mistakes ? but it's nice to know that [the work] all pays off. Everyone knew where they needed to be and go. The throw was there ... it was just wonderful.

Abbie Bates

He's a young kid that has the ability to throw the ball real well. He did today. He obviously kept us off-base. He kept us off-balance.

Justin Shell

We got some looks, but we didn't finish. We let them back in the game. We kept fouling and putting them on the free-throw line, where they got most of their points in the fourth quarter.

Julian Bumbrey

I was surprised. It was the first shift for us. We just tried to throw the puck on net and hopefully go for a rebound or cycle the puck. I took the shot and it just kind of went five-hole. I was surprised, but we'll take it.

Ruslan Fedotenko

[Both came on fastballs, the pitch Cordero has ridden to a franchise-record 44 saves.] All the guys went out there today and battled all day, and I throw one inning and I blow it, ... I just want to throw stuff. I'm just upset.

Chad Cordero

This early in the year that's phenomenal. I mean that is really quite amazing. Another highlight of the day for us ... I can't remember when Capital has won all three throwing events in a track meet. And I've been coaching a long time.

Lon Carter

I'd say I play like Kevin Garnett, ... I'm playing in the post because I'm 6-10, not because I'm a post player. Not having a position is my biggest strength and biggest weakness. You can throw me out at any position, but I haven't mastered any position.

Ronald Allen

(Mora) didn't throw the breaking ball early (for a strike). Once he settled down and started throwing the curve on the first pitch, they couldn't get up there and hack at the first-pitch fastball. That changed the game.

Fred Ledesma

Groins are very difficult because they affect the throwing motion. It could be more than one weekend.

Denny Green

Unfortunately, the kids didn't notice at the time, so we're not sure which house was giving it out, ... We don't really consider it a prank, because there is some health issues here, with throwing this in with food children are potentially going to eat.

Doug Taylor

Just throw everything at the net. Throw it at the net and things can happen.

John Danby

Free throws have been killing us. We just shooting over 50 percent from the free throw line.

Alana Erickson

We're doing everything we can to win ballgames. He was being aggressive the entire game, throwing strikes. Sometimes he gets the ball over the zone, and we were able to hit him.

Jorge Cantu

For someone to play a childish game like throwing a firecracker at an animal, it makes me angry.

Jim Rice

It's like throwing rocks from inside a rowboat. Over time, you end up moving the boat.

Matthew Graham

When I was coaching at Kearny High, it was the quarterfinals of the playoffs against Ramona. One of their kids threw the ball 45 yards in the air, put it backdoor over the keeper and the sweeper's head and they scored. (We) were like, 'Oh my God, we just lost on a throw-in!' But, hey, we've done it, too.

Jon Domingo

We haven't shot well from the free-throw line, we haven't shot the ball well overall. If we start shooting well, that's going to mean trouble for a lot of other teams.

Doug Ewell

We're going to throw the ball, but we definitely want to get the running game back up.

Chad Spence

She?s an excellent, excellent fielder, has a strong throwing arm and is a solid hitter.

Les Shepard

We'll split it up. We'll have four or five guys throw to get ready for this weekend.

Jim Schmitz

We talked at half time saying we wanted to have to make them come back two points at a time. Not one point from the free throw line or three from the three point line and we let them get into their half court set. We knew that was pretty much their game and they were going to shoot the three and it just happened they only hit them in the third and not in the rest of the game.

Dan Schwieterman

It felt like you were throwing in a tunnel. Even though there were nets between the cages, every so often a ball would sail right at you from the cage next to you. You knew it wasn't going to hit you, but you still saw it out of the corner of your eye.

Matt Thornton

There could even be a swap, with Hillcrest throwing in the land (on Highway 84) to purchase the property at Legends Crossing, though I don't know if the Legends Crossing people are motivated to do that deal.

Randy Reid

She dominated. She killed us from inside and from the free throw line. We couldn't drive the ball, and the one thing that kills us is when get unbalanced in our scoring. Amanda was proving us with a lot of points in the first half, but when they shut her down in the second, we didn't have anyone there to pick up the slack.

Fred Thacher

It's really been a great public-private partnership, ... People don't understand how long it takes to do projects like this. And then you throw the weather in there.

Donald Walker

Those two kids that threw today are both good high school pitchers and the problem is we expect too much out of them. You're not always going to throw perfect pitches, they were both off a little bit and Central did a good job of hitting.

Terry Stephenson

They kept us on defense for a long time, throwing the ball and tiring us out. And then when we got in the half-court, a lot of people were standing around.

Todd Galloway

I felt really good. Everything was on. I was throwing strikes. I was putting the ball where I wanted to put it. It was a real good day for me today. I wasn't actually nervous at all.

Joel Zumaya

Any time you have to run a decent amount away (to field a ground ball), those plays get a lot tougher, just because it's a tougher ground ball to begin with. And then you have to make sure to try not to rush (the throw), because you want to make sure you get the first out, always.

Chris Burke

When I make a soup, instead of having to go to the store and buy the produce, it's already dried so I just reach my hand in the jar and throw it in. So it takes me five minutes to prepare a soup which is really healthy and is more or less a gourmet meal.

Stephanie Williams

Economics has as its purpose firstly to acquire knowledge for its own sake, and secondly to throw light on practical issues. But though we are bound, before entering on any study, to consider carefully what are its uses, we should not plan out our work with direct reference to them.

Alfred Marshall

They did a good job throwing more than one defender at him. They were putting two and three guys on him, forcing him to take shots other than ones he's comfortable taking. They did a good job of that. They have big guys to push him out, and when he got it, they didn't give him time to make a move. They were right on top of him.

Keith Bogans

Throw enough time and money at a technology problem, and it can be overcome.

Keith Waryas

Sure I can throw in the gym, but baseball has so many different aspects that really require being outside on a diamond. You can't practice cutoff throws from the outfield, you can't run bases, we've had only one outdoor practice and that was in three feet of snow.

Travis Babbitt

She pitched a heck of a game. Kristen is throwing very well right now.

Kathy Smelstor

He'd have the catchers jumping. I saw Bob Feller throw in his prime and Steve threw harder. I suspected Bob got up around 100 miles per hour. I heard Steve threw 108.

Lee Bussey

I was not on at all mechanically, not very sound, ... I was saying [before the game], 'This is the day I will probably go out and throw a no-hitter.' The last time in the bullpen, my stuff was some of my better stuff.

Brandon Webb

Everyone talks about his funny throwing motion. But to me it's an advantage. The ball gets out quick.

Jerry Rhome

The legacy carriers have a real disconnect with their passengers. Try to start a conversation at a cocktail party about how much you love your old-line carrier and see how long it takes someone to throw a canapé at you.

Fred Reid

Sheldon and Craig were able to get to the lane and get to the free throw line. We shared the ball well offensively as a team and were able to get some easy baskets.

Dave Witzig

In terms of public relations, it was a major snafu. I think it got a lot of negative reception in the market. Barnes & Noble look like someone who came to the party late and then started throwing their drinks at people.

Melissa Bane

My son turned 10 just the other day. He said, 'Thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play - Can you teach me to throw?' I said, 'Not today, I got a lot to do.' He said, 'That's OK.' .

Harry Chapin

I've been doing this a long time, and we had a better shot a scoring on that trap play, than just throwing one down the field.

Mike Paul

It was close, so someone had to step up. They were throwing the ball in the same all game long. I just guessed and it paid off.

Randy Perkins

I just wanted to redeem myself and not let my man score. I knew they were going to have to put some air under the ball and not throw a line drive. Once the ball was in the air, I knew I had time to get to it.

Ricky Soliver

They made our pitchers throw more pitches and that gave their hitters more pitchers to look at.

Ted Farhat

It feels great. Obviously, it's been playing with my mind for the last month and a half or so. I've got to realize that I did throw some good games within those 12 games, but when you don't get results, it starts messing with you.

Jason Marquis

I think our pitching is our strength this year. We're very deep and we've got guys that throw strikes.

Bob Rowe

That was just a great play. If he doesn't make that throw, who knows what happens.

Mike Gill

I think everybody expects a big year out of our running game. We're still going to throw the ball, but our bread and butter is the running game. It always has been, even though we're known as a passing team by some people.

Marvin Philip

We come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly... Only after we have lost everything, are we free to do anything... Throw things out there and not be perfect and not have answers to anything and see if people understand.

Angelina Jolie

We wear respirators when we're in the houses. We've been taking mud out in wheelbarrows. You walk in a room and it just makes you want to throw up.

Jeff Rolen

Baseball hasn't forgotten me. I go to a lot of old-timers games and I haven't lost a thing. I sit in the bullpen and let people throw things at me. Just like old times.

Bob Uecker

They'll be throwing a lot of elbows and squeezing into tight spots.

Mark Purnell

Free throw shooting was really bad. Since Christmas, we've improved a lot. We have been around 70 percent since Christmas, but tonight we were not very good from the free throw line.

Jeff Vanarsdel

I feel God has blessed us ballplayers with the ability to throw a ball, hit a ball, catch a ball and to play the game of baseball at a level that only a few can play in the world.

Mike Sweeney

Lots of people throw parties at home now. We'll do an amazing amount of takeout business on Sunday because people take our food to house parties with them. As far as in-house, we usually have plenty of room for people to come in and watch the game.

Tom Clary

I didn't throw many strikes. That was the key to the game right there.

Victor Santos

I think it's actually helped me relax a little bit. I'm not so worried about making every throw perfect. It gives me a little more of a chance to settle down and read things.

Curtis Painter

She has a big heart and she's so pure. We always pray together and when I'm at the free-throw line, Natalie will look at me and give me a little sign.

Chrissey Cruz

We decided in our game plan we wanted to throw pucks at the net and see if we could get any rebounds. That's what we did and we came out and threw pucks at the net. We got some tips and some goals.

Brett Lebda

He's been doing that ever since the start of the season-- throwing strikes and getting ahead of hitters.

Brian Fischer

He doesn't even look like he's missed a beat. He flew through that game. He was getting a lot of quick outs for us. It's good to see him throw well.

Mike Hessman

There isn't the same culture of young dancers having to wait in line. They throw kids into the big roles, just to give them a chance.

Christopher Wheeldon

Now, with Jimmy Drew being a little more experienced, they should be able to throw the ball a little bit. Instead of run, run, run, what they'll do is try and lull you to sleep and bang, hit you with play action. We just have to be ready for that and mature enough to recognize it when it comes.

Chad Spence

That was a very difficult play. For one or two innings I had to realize that it was raining, that the grass was wet, and that when you have synthetic turf wet it is difficult to catch a ball and grasp it very well. I threw it home and I had to do it at full blast, not just an easy throw, a weak throw, but I had to do it full blast, and it worked out well.

Yulieski Gourriel

(Teams) all prepare better for better pitching now. Your pitcher has to be able to do other things now. You just can't throw it by people.

Joel Rogers

Weatherford will stick in there and throw the football. We popped him a couple times a couple weeks ago and he stayed in and threw the ball.

Scott Schmitz

It's a real nice pace we've got going right now, so it doesn't feel like [either is] throwing too much.

Dan Jacobson

People assume it's being tough on crime, but what you're doing is throwing these kids away. Studies show that kids who are put into the adult system re-offend quicker and more seriously.

Abby Anderson

You don't throw out a mayor who's got a decent-to-good record. You certainly don't throw him out in favor of an opponent who's got a less-than-compelling message.

Doug Muzzio

He's really picked up his tempo out there. Some of the things he was doing, I could almost tell what he was going to throw. Now, he's pitching aggressively. That works real good with a guy who has a good changeup.

Mark Wiley

Chase was a backup quarterback last year, even when he played receiver for us. He brings that threat to run the football. Kai was more of a throw-type guy and Chase is more of a run-type guy. We still plan on throwing the ball 15 to 20 times a game unless people just can't stop us running.

Randy Albano

When he hit a ground ball to you, you knew you had to make a good throw because he was going to be running.

Juan Marichal

It's a matter of familiarity. Working together, catchers get to know what pitchers like to throw in situations, like with two strikes. They know what a pitcher can do, and can't.

Bryan Price

They throw it a lot, and you have to cover them all over the field.

Mike Godan

That's shows you somebody who's got guts. Sometimes it seems when you pitch to Sheffield you can't throw it hard enough, but he came back and threw the ball really well the rest of the game. He got Sheffield on a fastball that shows he's got a lot of polish.

Matt Lawton

Wow, he's a good athlete. I watched the video of him. We have to work on his throwing. I look forward to spring training so I can teach him more. I have a lot of secrets I think I can pass to him.

Rafael Belliard

That was the plan heading into this game. We wanted to get some runs on the board early and hopefully Jake would throw strikes and our defense would make plays.

Rick Heller

If you use a sponge, you should throw it out everyday.

Jaime Sark

He can throw. He can be something special.

Damon Hollins

Those guys hit so well with two strikes. We were throwing pitches five inches off the plate and they were getting hits. We' weren't able to do that today.

Chance Wheeless

I didn't have any intentions of, not dominating, but I went with the flow of the game. I ran the floor pretty well. Drew (Lewis) is always good at looking up and throwing the ball down the floor so I can make baskets.

Derek Withers

That was one of the things we talked about at halftime. Down at the end every foul is a free throw basically.

Rachel Farwell

To put him under the gun in his first game, Shea did well. We didn't really throw, but we didn't really need to. But he ran the offense well.

Doug Luke

Responses to direct marketing are dropping in general. More and more people just throw mail away - especially unmarked mail - without opening it.

Jason Catlett

God gives every bird its food, but he does not throw it into the nest.

Josiah Gilbert Holland

If they get open and they just throw up a hand, she can stick it to them.

Marsha Sharp

It makes this first game that much more difficult. You know you are going to face the best pitcher, and you have to throw your best. It doesn't matter who you play, usually.

Bart Britton

We're very hungry to be the best in the league, ... but I don't think they're going to throw us out if we're not.

Tom Jurich

The safest course for all of us as public officials is simply to throw all the money in a sack. Or in the way of one servant in the Biblical parable of the talents, bury the money in the ground rather than accept any risk. The servant's business plan proved reliable but ineffective.

Dave Freudenthal

That's the way I pitched all last year, using the off-speed to set it up a little bit more. I felt like sometimes I get into a habit of throwing too many fastballs and just relying on that, whereas I'm sure I could throw a lot more off-speed stuff for strikes.

Justin Verlander

The mechanics had more to do with timing and footwork and balance; it's all lower body getting his feet underneath him planting and throwing the football. He's going to fix that up pretty fast.

Dan Mullen

Paul is similar to Taylor as a quarterback. They both can run and throw. We just felt we'd be better offensively if we moved Taylor to tight end.

Brian Nelson

I felt like I was going to throw up. I couldn't even see the ball because my eyes were burning.

Richard Krajicek

On the four-point play, I was just happy to get the ball and throw it up. And it felt pretty good.

Toni Kukoc

It was two teams throwing haymakers at one another.

Jason Harlow

I thought we had it. We had tons of opportunities, especially on the throw-ins. I thought we'd get two or three in. Right now, it's the worst feeling, but I'm proud of the guys. They left their hearts on the field.

Bryce Kaneshiro

When you throw in his charisma, his size and his family values, you know this kid will do whatever it takes to make it.

Matt Keator

If I had known they were very poor at the free throw line, we would have started fouling earlier in the third quarter. The kids never rolled over after being down by more than 20.

Mike Stallings

He's got some tools that we need. He is quick and we think he can throw, although we're not really sure how much we are going to throw at this time.

Bill Leggett

The false start on the relay was like throwing a hurdle in our path, a rather large one, but it only served to present us with a bigger challenge than anything else.

Dan Wohl

The big thing is throwing consistent strikes. If our guys can do that, they're going to have a chance to succeed. For the most part we did a good job of that. Cody in that last inning struggled a little bit with his command, settled down and made some adjustments and got them out.

Jim Gabella

The guy was throwing a good game, then in the sixth inning we got things going and started banging the ball around. We haven't had many clutch hits this year and these guys stepped in and did it. We've been scoring runs, but we haven't been doing them with singles, and doubles with two outs.

Chad Logan

Exactly. Crystal shoots the ball very well from the free-throw line, Pena has been at about 75 percent, and that pressure is something you really can't simulate in practice. Yes, we missed a couple, but for them to hit those, that gave us a bit of breathing room and allowed the kids to relax a little.

Mark Krusz

It's not the first time something like this has happened. There's something about big fish that makes people throw out rhyme or reason. They get so excited, they lose sight of reality.

You can throw it out or you can do what you want.

Brian Schmidt

Throw something the guys aren't looking for. I think a lot of it for me now will be if I'm able to execute a lot of my pitches. It's just a matter of figuring out what they're looking for. Over time, since I've seen the hitters more, I've gotten better about doing that.

Casey Fossum

We're going to throw him in the fire right away. He's going to be participating on the golf team immediately. We're excited to have him on board.

Paul Chavez

We've improved, but I'm sure Heath has as well. The last time we played them there was a 30-4 free-throw difference, and you don't win many games when you get beat 30-4 from the foul line. Taking all that, I think it's going to be a real battle. We like our chances.

Brian Blume

All the guys went out there today and battled all day, and I throw one inning and I blow it. I just want to throw stuff. I'm just upset.

Chad Cordero

It just wasn't the place for me, and he (Williams) told me to do what I wanted to do. I wanted to go someplace that they would throw the ball a lot.

Brent Vinson

The size of the challenge ahead is not to be underestimated but it's one that I'm sure he's going to throw himself fully into.

Christian Horner

We just tried to make every catch tough. We tried to fight him in the post, try to make them throw him a lob and try to squeeze him from the back side. He was struggling to get the ball and having to step out and take some poor shots. To me, that (Bryant yelling at his teammates) just let us know we did our job.

Devin Harris

When you get to the playoffs, you can't afford to turn the ball over. Free throw shooting is always important too. That's an area that we need to work on.

Herman Walton

(Davis) threw strikes. Our defense is good and if we get people throwing strikes we're going to get people out.

Craig Milburn

We've got some pretty good arms. It's just a matter of throwing strikes and whether we can make the plays behind them.

Travis Barbary

Health-wise, the other day it was good, but his command was not close. It was not good as we needed it to be. We just want to make sure when he comes up here he is not going to get hammered. It doesn't matter how good you throw, if you don't have your location, you're going to have a tough time getting through an inning in this league.

Buddy Bell

The penalty for any bank that decides to issue cards on the Discover or American Express networks is severe. Visa and MasterCard rules are clear. They will throw banks out of their network, thus having the effect that banks must exit the retail banking business.

Harvey Golub

But when a young lady is to be a heroine, the perverseness of forty surrounding families cannot prevent her. Something must and will happen to throw a hero in her way.

Jane Austen

I knew in the second half we'd have to buckle our seat belts a little bit, because they were going to throw some numbers at us. I was proud of my team.

Dave Sarachan

When my girls believe they're capable of winning in softball, we will be able to compete for a title. Teams aren't throwing their No. 3 pitcher against us anymore for a reason.

Sandy Lazzaroni

People were vomiting, throwing up on the streets, kids were crying and screaming. It was chaos. And this happens every year. But medical people don't know how to deal with it. They don't speak the language of the workers. The clinics don't know how to recognize the symptoms. They give the workers aspirins and send them back to work.

Jeff Ponting

We missed a lot of easy shots but we played tough on defense and got the ball back. And this was probably our best performance at the free throw line this year and we needed it.

Connie West

I saw a couple of players down below (in the stadium) who were talking about Oswalt during the game, and they said, 'My god, he is throwing a ball that looks like it's coming at 110 mph and rising when it gets to the plate,'.

Joe Buck

The safest course for public officials is simply to throw all of the money in a sack.

Dave Freudenthal

No matter who the man is, nobody can treat you like this and use you and just throw you out the door like some piece of meat.

Paula Jones

The whole game is about throwing and catching. The teams that do that the best comes out on top.

Anthony Ammirata

It is not to say that we have done an about-turn. We can't just take the Spears and throw them into the deep water.

Johan Prinsloo

When you are getting pounded in the turf, I think you will throw it high. That is my department and we will get it fixed.

Dave Ewart

At times it feels like I have 13 starters. That?s a testament to the kids There are not many teams out there where you can throw 12, 13 kids on the floor and not have a drop off.

Tim Lawrence

Five out of our top six (players) are football players. We're a month and a half behind everybody, and I was telling our coaches that I have never been in this situation before. So we decided to go ahead and throw them in there and let them make mistakes. ... We can't go back to Day 1; we can't catch up that way.

Rob Detzel

Four months ago the kid was just thrilled that Brown University was interested in having him play there. The kid has moved very quickly. What he has to handle now is not to throw expectations on himself and relax and play hockey.

Matt Keator

You can't really key on one thing with us. If we're having a big week on the ground, and that guy goes down, you've got to have a way to compensate. Just having the ability to throw the ball and be effective with it makes us multi-dimensional.

Rasheed Marshall

The game was dictated at the free-throw line. You can't miss 11 and win at this level.

Jerry Wainwright

The studio just wanted us to throw in something as a tease. I didn't object.

David Zucker

It shows that no matter how much money the industry tries to throw at this, the majority of people still believe that nuclear is dirty, decrepit and dangerous.
