I think Amy Poehler and Tina Fey have done so much for women in comedy in the sense that they've normalized it.

They refuse to play the foils for men, or be reduced to the butt of every joke, and I love that about both of them.

Merry Clayton

I was very proud to be Mrs. Curtis Amy. My thing in life when I married Curtis Amy was being Mrs. Curtis Amy. Career was fine, but I was enthralled with being Curtis' wife. That was very important to me back then, and that's always important to a young lady from New Orleans. That's our upbringing: to be a wonderful wife and mother first.

Schuyler Sokolow

I can't say enough about what Amy has done for the team. She has brought a lot of new defensive concepts to the team. Last year was tough because we got away from our team defense concept. We're on the brink of getting back to where we were two years ago, in terms of playing as a defensive unit.

Patrick is probably the best athlete we have on the team and he has a chance to go a long way.

Records and things like that are made to be broken. The odds can come out on a game and you might be the underdog. Is that saying that the underdog wins? No. I don't think we put a whole lot of stock in that.

Rick Stansbury

Reggie needs to not always look for the 3-pointer. He's got to play off that dribble, take it to the hole, which he's done more lately. A mid-range game opens up the 3-point shot. It makes him a more versatile player. And he needs to be a screener, because screeners get open. But it's getting better.

Lana Ross

Our region is tough. We're going with the same lineup to give our players a lot of at bats. Right now, we're sore. We've played a lot of games with a little rest. Our pitchers are doing just enough and Maple Woods is a good team.

Players have a lot of knowledge. It would be silly of me to say if they suggest something that I wouldn't look at it.

Bernard Beckett

A society that fears knowledge is a society that fears itself.

Bertrand Russell

Pure mathematics consists entirely of assertions to the effect that, if such and such a proposition is true of anything, then suchand such another proposition is true of that thing.... Thus mathematics may be defined as the subject in which we never know what we are talking about, nor whether what we are saying is true.

Bertrand Russell

Whatever we know without inference is mental.

Bertrand Russell

History is valuable, to begin with, because it is true; and this, though not the whole of its value, is the foundation and condition of all the rest. That all knowledge, as such, is in some degree good, would appear to be at least probable; and the knowledge of every historical fact possesses this element of goodness, even if it posses no other.

Bertrand Russell

All that passes for knowledge can be arranged in a hierarchy of degrees of certainty, with arithmetic and the facts of perception at the top.

I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life. Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time. No one person or material thing could ever come close to the feeling I get when the music is right. I am totally committed to my music and my fans.

Berthe Morisot

In love, there's sentiment and passion; I know only sentiment through myself, passion through others. I hear certain voices I know say: sentiment=love of the intellect; I can answer: passion=the love of the body.

C. S. Lewis

Afflictions are... if we can so take them, our share in the Passion of Christ

C. S. Lewis

And there’s also ‘To him that hath shall be given.’ After all, you must have a capacity to receive, or even omnipotence can’t give. Perhaps your own passion temporarily destroys the capacity.

Carrie Brownstein

What I value most in new music is strangeness, oddity. Passion. And humor. I listen to a lot of hip-hop because it combines so many things like that.

Carl Sagan

My deeply held belief is that if a god of anything like the traditional sort exists, our curiosity and intelligence are provided by such a god. We would be unappreciative of those gifts (as well as unable to take such a course of action) if we suppressed our passion to explore the universe and ourselves. On the other hand, if such a traditional god does not exist, our curiosity and our intelligence are the essential tools for managing our survival. In either case, the enterprise of knowledge is consistent with both science and religion, and is essential for the welfare of the human species.

Charles Jennings

We are living in a world where access trumps knowledge every time. Those who know how to search, find and make the connections will succeed. Those who rely on static knowledge and skills alone will fail.

Eliot Spitzer

Imagine if the pension funds and endowments that own much of the equity in our financial services companies demanded that those companies revisit the way mortgages were marketed to those without adequate skills to understand the products they were being sold. Management would have to change the way things were done.

David Nicholls

Afterward, there was some debate as to whether we'd actually "done it properly," which gives you some idea of the awesome skill and artful dexterity of my lovemaking technique.

Marvel Smith

He's got the kind of speed you can't coach,

Brad Dancer

He doesn't talk about it. He's a tough guy. You can see it in his speed and some of his movement.

Jim Coyne

Some of the work is in dispute. Hopefully, it will be settled.

David Frum

Republicans originally thought that Fox worked for us and now we're discovering we work for Fox.
