Mr. Speaker the Delaware River deepening project is important for my constituents for our region and for the entire nation. I trust that when they examine the facts about it every one of my colleagues will join me in supporting it.

Well the whole story is in the book but the short answer is that I was the first information architect in an organization that was traditionally design-oriented and I felt I needed a tool to help me gain the trust and support of my colleagues.

I got a lot of things that society had promised would make me whole and fulfilled - all the things that the culture tells you from preschool on will quiet the throbbing anxiety inside you - stature the respect of colleagues maybe even a kind of low-grade fame.

I say that to my colleagues by the way in the internal Cabinet meetings I say 'Look I want to be very clear about what I want.' I just - I don't want a peace process I want a peace result.

And I have to say what motivates me every day and I know my Democratic colleagues is to remember that every day 14 000 people get up in the morning with insurance that go to bed at night without it and most of them because they lost their job.

In the Radiation Laboratory we count it a privilege to do everything we can to assist our medical colleagues in the application of these new tools to the problems of human suffering.

I am honored that my freshman class colleagues have put their trust in me to represent our historic class at the leadership table. The incoming freshman class of Representatives is large and diverse but we share many common goals including cutting wasteful spending getting our economy back on track and making government smarter and more efficient.

For many members of Congress the time for choosing is near - do what the party leadership demands or do what the people have asked you to do. If my colleagues don't mind some advice from a newcomer I'd suggest going with the will of the people.

I and my colleagues here have been engaged in the pursuit of knowledge.

I have a great advantage over many of my colleagues inasmuch as my students bring with them to class their own personal knowledge of national regional religious ethnic occupational and family folklore traditions.

I rise today to discuss the National Intelligence Reform bill. I commend my colleagues in both Houses for their hard work in coming to an agreement. As with any conference each voice is heard but none can dominate and compromise must be achieved.

I'm not the smartest fellow in the world but I can sure pick smart colleagues.

It took a while for me to grasp that my colleagues believe I have made an impact on the history of cinema.

The lack of health care coverage has remained very important to me during my time in Congress and as a member of the House Subcommittee on Health I am working hard with my colleagues to correct these inequalities.

I can only point out a curious fact. Year after year the Nobel Awards bring a moment of happiness not only to the recipients not only to colleagues and friends of the recipients but even to strangers.

The great thing about being a print journalist is that you are permitted to duck. Cameramen get killed while the writers are flat on the floor. A war correspondent for the BBC dedicated his memoir to 50 fallen colleagues and I guarantee you they were all taking pictures. I am only alive because I am such a chicken.

Having a college degree gave me the opportunity to be... well-rounded. Also the people I met at the university most of them are still my colleagues now. People I've known for years are all in the industry together.

I clearly believe a lot more than some of my coalition colleagues - Tories - in redistribution and using the tax system for that purpose. I also believe in the government having an active role in the economy which is having an industrial strategy. I'm not a believer in laissez-faire.

What we've tried to do is have neighbors colleagues friends and family talking.

Nixon was the most dishonest individual I have ever met in my life. He lied to his wife his family his friends his colleagues in the Congress lifetime members of his own political party the American people and the world.

I would wish for any one of my colleagues to have the experience of working with Martin Scorsese once in their lifetime.

I say to my colleagues never confine your best work your hopes your dreams the aspiration of the American people to what will be signed by George W. Bush because that is too limiting a factor.

Anybody who really knows about the TV business knows that it would be impossible to just march in one day and say to your colleagues and bosses 'Oh yes I'm hosting my own show.'

Some people work hard in this business and become really popular really big stars but they never receive an award from within the business. Somehow when your colleagues and friends believe in you to the point of handing you an award it means so much more.
