  • We were under a lot of pressure but we didn't allow them any real chances. It was as comfortable a victory as 1-0 in a vital match can possibly be.
  • At the end of the day, if you are talking about a blatant fraud, registration is not gong to prevent it. What it does do is put (managers) on the map. Investment advisers are subject to regular inspections of their internal controls. So by registering, they do have an obligation to make sure their internal controls are much more solid than they would be if they were not registered. It doesn't prevent outright fraud, but it does add a deterrent.
  • Those were always the guys that I admired. I think I've maintained a relatively sort of low-key profile. I try to do good work and make it about that.
  • I wasn't a kid who moved out from Iowa with aspirations of becoming a famous star-I was intrigued by the idea of filmmaking and by the idea of what it would be like to play a character in a movie.
  • My name is Earl and I'm a jerk.
  • The Los Angeles County district attorney's office has been made aware of the investigation.
  • Police figures show that, every month, more than 40 people nationwide commit suicide due to their escalating debts.
  • When I first turned pro, it was March of '89-a month before my 19th birthday.
  • Everyone's concerned about overheating, especially in the luxury market in Shanghai. We're cautious as well.
  • There's a lot of heart in Earl and a lot of sweet moments at the end of episodes that ground it and let you realize it's not just a comedy, it's got something to it.
  • I didn't expect that, to be honest. I just thought the show was funny. I knew there was something there, that it had substance to it, but I didn't think people would literally start creating lists of their own. It's pretty fantastic that people laugh because of the show, but at the same time, they're genuinely considering things that 30-minute sitcoms don't usually make you think about. I'm proud of that.
  • It appears that he's a victim of a hit-and-run and we don't arrest victims.
  • I try to do good things, you know, and good things happen when you keep yourself open like that, definitely.
  • It feels great. Last year was my first year, so this year I'm just trying to do my best.
  • The only business of television I'm familiar with is this show. It's the only affiliation with TV I've ever had. I'm plenty happy. I like that it's a single-camera show. I'm used to working on films. I like that it feels very much like shooting a film. I was comfortable from day one. I have big dreams definitely. This thing better go. (But) I'm not thinking too far into the future. But there is a lot to consider because of Earl's list. When does he change and how long does that take? It's a slow awakening . . . We have to walk that line of not having it happen too soon but not keeping him too ignorant for too long.
  • We're in the midst of putting together a strategic partnership on the retail side. And for office, we're looking at sub markets of Tokyo and other cities with good demographics.

  • The case is in the preliminary stages and under investigation.
  • And even within cities you have different dynamics in each asset class.
  • That keeps Earl on his toes. If he were able to easily cross everything off, he would start to get a little cocky, I'm sure, and start to rush it a bit. Instead, he stills gets tossed around in the process, and that, to me, is an indication that he's still got a long way to go.
  • We just have to win tomorrow.
  • I wanted to be very serious about being a musician - a guy who cares a lot about the music and the band and why we did it in the first place
  • If he were just able to cross everything off, he'd start to get a little cocky, I'm sure. He'd start to rush it and maybe get a little too overly confident. He still gets tossed around in the process. That's sort of to me an indication that he still has a long way to go.
  • It appears at this time, although the investigation is continuing, that he was struck by that white Town Car, lost control and plowed into the clinic. It appears that he's a victim of a hit-and-run and we don't arrest victims.
  • If he were just able to cross everything off, he'd start to get a little cocky, I'm sure.
  • Karma is a funny thing.
  • We didn't really beat them the way we wanted to beat them. We played well below our standards and whenever that happens we're not happy.
  • I'm just doing my job. I can't show up on the set every day with that in my mind. It would just be too distracting.

  • I could definitely relate to [ Almost Famous character] Jeff Bebe. I care about acting. I care about the work. Jeff Bebe cares about the music everything else can go to hell.
  • I wanted to be looked at for the skateboarder that I was. I didn't want to be the 36-year-old skateboarder who's still holding on while owning a company at the same time. I wanted to make my mark and travel and accomplish a few things here and there and then get out.
  • I can't say we will invest in any significant way with this first fund. But hopefully, when we move onto the fund number two, India will be a market that we pursue.
  • The show really is balanced, from the writing to the way it's shot, with intelligence and humanity. It's always sweet at the end of the episode. You really do like Earl.
  • Earl.
  • A movie doesn't open the opening weekend and then get burned -- they don't destroy it. It lasts. So what about Raging Bull ? Do you know how much that made opening weekend? No.
  • We didn't play as well as we can and we're not getting carried away.
  • When does Earl change, and how long does that take? It's a slow awakening. We have to walk that line of not having that happen too soon but not keeping him ignorant too long.
