I believe that, too, it's hard to believe that anybody could not believe that.

I think it would have been a lot better for him to say, I did it and I'm sorry, McGwire was never one to show a lot of emotion on the field, not a player who sought attention and craved to be thought of as a nice guy.

I can't be optimistic. I can be hopeful.

This is a coup for commissioner Bud Selig. I'm surprised it's as good as it is.

It was a terrible day for baseball, it was a worse day for Congress.

It's tempting, because as one senator said to me, 'We know if we invite baseball down, we'll draw a crowd'.

I believe that, too, it's hard to believe that anybody could not believe that.

It's not in baseball's interest or the players' interest to be taking this stance. It's the people's game.

The final ballots represent players, managers, executives and builders who are top-tier candidates and worthy of review for consideration for election to the Hall of Fame.

Certainly toward the end of the season, you and I could be in a ballpark and they might say the crowd is 30,000, and we could look around and see that there was no more than 10,000.

The economics of baseball are the big problem. The big clubs make a lot of money and the little clubs don't.

The Left has always been anti-religious, and especially anti-Christian.

No one either loves to lose or loves a loser. So don't quit until you win.

I'm writing a novel about two actresses who go to New York, because that's what I know about. One has lost touch with reality, disappears and is picked up by a man.

The line is a way of framing poetry. All verse is measured by lines. The poetic line immediately announces its difference from everyday speech and prose.

God can desire to enter into a relationship with us; he can be drawn to some aspect of our identity.

I'm working on a new novel, in its 3rd draft, but it's hard to write while doing 7th Heaven.

Computer science needs to be part of the core curriculum like algebra biology physics or chemistry. We need all schools to teach it not just 10.

An economy genuinely local and neighborly offers to localities a measure of security that they cannot derive from a national or a global economy controlled by people who, by principle, have no local commitment.

I like this other world, this forgetting of myself. The actor works in order to escape, not to find himself. You become an actor by leaving yourself, and then you have to keep acting. How tragic!

The picture surface recedes just as much in the 20th century as it did in the 15th. The techniques of making pictures have hardly changed.

I had to have shoulder reconstruction.

I love a pocket. I'm about helping women look as good as possible on the least amount of effort. I want versatility and comfort. Clothes that can go from the office to anywhere. We're always trying on samples at work. If none of us would wear it, chances are no one else will.

You know, one of the biggest thrills I have is when famous people recognize me from Taxi.

In order for the students' development and the outer development of civilization to coincide, we need a faculty whose interest is not limited to specialized educational practices. Rather, this faculty must be fully involved in the broader aspects of life.

A conductor should guide rather than command.

Don't learn to do, but learn in doing. Let your falls not be on a prepared ground, but let them be bona fide falls in the rough and tumble of the world.

I'm making the art for me first. I'm making it because these are the pictures I want to see. I'm making pictures that don't yet exist.

I love men - everything about them: the way they look, the way they smell, the way they feel. I love their minds.

I'm working out every day. I'm in very good shape.

I am a director's actress in general - I depend a lot on them.

The show is definitely not just about weight-loss physically. It's more about finding yourself. It's really funny because I realized at one of our table reads that 'Huge' was really about the weight that we carry around mentally.

How much longer will you sit back and wait for your dream to spontaneously come true? Too many days, weeks, months, and years have passed! Do not be unresponsive to your own dreams.

I think like a genius, I write like a distinguished author, and I speak like a child.

Osama Bin Laden is dead. Killed not by a massive troop deployment but by a commando raid carried out by a few dozen highly trained men and helicopters.
