No one can possibly know what is about to happen: it is happening each time for the first time for the only time.

Everything that happens once can never happen again. But everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time.

It seems like every time you come up something happens to bring you back down.

Time is what prevents everything from happening at once.

The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once.

For disappearing acts it's hard to beat what happens to the eight hours supposedly left after eight of sleep and eight of work.

Everything happens to everybody sooner or later if there is time enough.

I'm very thankful to players like John Stockton and Spud Webb. They've made it possible for someone like me to make it. I think teams are actually looking for one player under 6-feet now because they make things happen.

Should it happen tomorrow I would fall to my knees to give thanks to God for such a career.

I don't think there's a problem with being a teen idol if that happens to me I'll be happy to deal with it.

From a technical point of view there seemed to me to be absolutely no reason why - with the existing technology - we couldn't do very high quality audio because whereas the boom in digital graphics is ongoing the boom in digital audio has already happened.

Without competition the spectacular development of technology that we have seen in the last one hundred years in this country would not have happened.

It's hard to say exactly what it is about face-to-face contact that makes deals happen but whatever it is it hasn't yet been duplicated by technology.

Pretty soon we'll have robots in our society you're going to have a lot of automated processes that used to be done by people - this is happening. Society and technology is changing so fast and the impact of the change on society and technology is global not local.

So the major obstacle to the development of new supplies is not geology but what happens above ground: international affairs politics investment and technology.

Today 80 percent of all the oil that comes out of the Gulf is from 1 000 feet or more and today almost a third of it is more than 5 000 feet below the surface. What hasn't happened is the safety and the ability to respond to a negative event such as this blowout has been far outrun by the technology of drilling itself. We need to close that gap.

Whereas with us - what you hear is what's happening right then and there on the stage - so we don't need no stinking technology.

So many times these kids know more about the technology than their parents. And so many times we're putting kids in very adult situations and expecting them to behave like they're 40 years old. Well that's just not going to happen.

We can close the gap and improve what happens in the classroom by using educational technology that is the same high quality everywhere.

Now a lot of what we are doing right now quite frankly is because of what happened on Christmas. Many of the things were kind of in the works. We were already planning for example the purchase and deployment of advanced imaging technology. You call them body scanners. We call them AITs (Advanced Imaging Technologies).

So one begins to wonder what is going to happen to the human race. Technology keeps on advancing with greater and greater power either for good or for destruction.

What's happened with computer technology is perfectly timed for someone with my set of skills. I tell stories with pictures. What I love about CGI is that if I can think it it can be put on the screen.

I'm sorry it's true. Having children really changes your view on these things. We're born we live for a brief instant and we die. It's been happening for a long time. Technology is not changing it much - if at all.

My father also happened to be an intellectual as learned literate informed and curious as anyone I have known. Unobtrusively and casually he was my wise and gentle teacher.
