“Well, of course you question it, especially when you get to this point. I always look at it would I rather not make the playoffs or lose in The Finals? I don't know. I don't know. I've missed the playoffs twice. I lost in The Finals four times. I'm almost starting to be like I'd rather not even make the playoffs than to lose in The Finals. It would hurt a lot easier if I just didn't make the playoffs and I didn't have a shot at it.” IfsKnowsWellsLooksCoursesLostLosesHurtFourEasierShotsFinalsStartingChampionshipPlayoffsNba Championships Author:LeBron James
“In this game, you have to think about making plays, you can't worry about making mistakes. At times, a guy will get thrown out, but in the bigger scheme, the bases we're going to take will far outweigh that occasional misread. And it depends on what you call a mistake. If the outfielder puts the ball right on the money, he's out by a quarter-step and it's a bang-bang play, that's not a mistake. That's baseball. If you're out by four or five steps, it's ugly, it's a misread, but in the big picture, that aggressiveness is going to help us more than the occasional blunder will hurt.” IfsThinkingPlayHelpingBigsGuyGamesHurtMistakeStepsWorryFiveFourDependsBaseballBallsBasesBiggerUglyThrownMaking MistakesQuartersSchemesBangsOccasionalBlundersBig PictureAggressivenessOutfielders Author:Mike Scioscia
“We did a campaign here with New York Times. We had a great ad: "Today in America, someone will kill an elephant for a bracelet." We became sensitized in our society. Now there are four or five billion people in Asia who need to get this message. We need to use social media, print magazines, celebrities - anything we can to share this message. It's not cool, it's not okay. You are destroying beautiful animals. You are robbing a continent of its wealth. And you are hurting a lot of innocent people.” PeopleNeedsUseTodayAmericaBeautifulSocialHurtWealthAnimalFiveFourShareMediaNew YorkMessagesOkaySocial MediaBillionsCampaignsInnocentMagazinesOur SocietyPrintDestroyingAdsContinentsElephantsAsiaNew York TimesRobbingBraceletNot Okay Author:Patrick Bergin

“The EPA's [Clean Power Plan] is another example of Washington's lack of understanding when it comes to rural and Western energy issues. I oppose this new rule because it hurts my district, which has four coal-fired plants that power Arizona's big cities, small towns, businesses and residences. These plants also provide good-paying jobs in our tribal and rural regions.” BigsJobsEnergyUnderstandingHurtCitiesIssuesFourPlansExampleTownsCleanPlantWesternRegionsIt HurtsCoalSmall TownArizonaBig CitiesResidenceLack Of UnderstandingEpa Author:Ann Kirkpatrick
“I've learned to become a progressive man because I have four women in my life. And their mother, who I'm not married to anymore, but who impresses me because of our relationship. Because we have a very deep and friendly relationship that is completely about who we really are now. Before it was husband, wife, mother, father. But now it's about who we are as human beings. Because we didn't give up on each other. And because we didn't hurt each other and blister each other from a divorce. We became tight. Best friends. And more than that even, because now we're best parents.” MenGivingHumansMotherFatherParentHurtHuman BeingsFourWifeHusbandGiving UpMarriedDivorceI've LearnedWho We AreFriendlyProgressiveOur RelationshipImpressVery DeepBlistersHusband WifeBest ParentsWife Mother Author:Giancarlo Esposito
