That’s exactly how it is when a director says ‘Action!’ It’s the same adrenaline rush, the same training process. I love it.” ~ Brian J. White
14. “Every guy has different strengths in the NFL. Receivers are different, running backs are different, but they all have that one thing that they do thats special: that thing that keeps them on the roster every year.” ~ Larry Fitzgerald

17. “I don’t have any TVs with their over-the-air receivers connected in my house. But when I’m in a hotel room or other places that have a TV, then I turn it on and flip the channels just like everybody else. I’m not immune to the lures of television. I just try to stay away from it because I like to read.” ~ Bill Gates
18. “In football the object is for the quarterback, also known as the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his receivers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy’s defensive line. In baseball the object is to go home! And to be safe! I hope I’ll be safe at home!” ~ George Carlin

21. “A noble person confers no such gift as his whole confidence: none so exalts the giver and the receiver; it produces the truest gratitude. Perhaps it is only essential to friendship that some vital trust should have been reposed by the one in the other. I feel addressed and probed even to the remotest parts of my being when one nobly shows, even in trivial things, an implicit faith in me…. A threat or a curse may be forgotten, but this mild trust translates me.” ~ Henry David Thoreau
22. “the giver measures his gift with one yardstick, and the receiver measures it with another.” ~ Laura Huxley
23. “I would say the most significant difference between modern-era receivers and previous receivers is the ones who were in my generation or earlier had to get a job after they got through playing. Today’s player doesn’t.” ~ Steve Largent

24. “I think positive. I always think we’re going to score. Two minutes is a lot of time if you have timeouts and you’re throwing every down. You have to make the right decisions. I’ve always had great receivers, which helps. It’s not just me doing it.” ~ Dan Marino

25. “The real long term objective of the Welfare Plan is the fulfilling of character in the members of the Church, givers and receivers, rescuing all that is finest down deep inside of them, and bringing to flower and fruitage the latent richness of the Spirit, which, after all, is the mission and purpose and reason for being of this Church.” ~ J. Reuben Clark
26. “The Jews form a state, and, obeying their own laws, they evade those of their host country. the Jews always considered an oath regarding a Christian not binding. During the Campaign of 1812 the Jews were spies, they were paid by both sides, they betrayed both sides. It is seldom that the police investigate a robbery in which a Jew is not found either to be an accomplice or a receiver.” ~ Helmuth von Moltke the Elder

33. “I think it’s relatively easy to play defense against a team that can only do one thing. Unfortunately, that’s not what we’re talking about here with Seattle. They have a great running back – they have a great group of running backs – but Lynch obviously is really kind of in a class by himself. The quarterback’s a problem, the receivers are a problem, they have a good offensive line.” ~ Bill Belichick
34. “Close thine ear against him that shall open his mouth secretly against another. If thou receivest not his words, they fly back and wound the reporter. If thou dost receive them, they fly forward and wound the receiver.” ~ Johann Kaspar Lavater

36. “If a director says he doesn’t care how many people see his films at all, I simply don’t believe him. Otherwise “I’m not sure leaders listen enough, especially to their people. And I’ve always thought in everything I’ve tried to do in my life, in the jobs I’ve had, is that if we can turn our transmitters off and our receivers on more often, we’re better leaders and we know more of what is going on and therefore we can lead more effectively.” ~ Chuck Hagel”I’m not sure leaders listen enough, especially to their people. And I’ve always thought in everything I’ve tried to do in my life, in the jobs I’ve had, is that if we can turn our transmitters off and our receivers on more often, we’re better leaders and we know more of what is going on and therefore we can lead more effectively.” ~ Chuck Hagel”I’m not sure leaders listen enough, especially to their people. And I’ve always thought in everything I’ve tried to do in my life, in the jobs I’ve had, is that if we can turn our transmitters off and our receivers on more often, we’re better leaders and we know more of what is going on and therefore we can lead more effectively.” ~ Chuck Hagelwhy would he bother to make the film? The only explanation would be that it would be an act of masturbation. I think that every creator is looking for a receptor. He’s looking for an audience. There are two parts of the equation: a creator and, necessarily, the receiver of the work. It’s the same thing for a painter who wants his paintings to be seen.” ~ Michael Haneke
37. “These days, information is a commodity being sold. And designers-including the newly defined subset of information designers and information architects-have a responsible role to play. We are interpreters, not merely translators, between sender and receiver. What we say and how we say it makes a difference. If we want to speak to people, we need to know their language. In order to design for understanding, we need to understand design.” ~ Erik Spiekermann

40. “The two biggest things to understand when you’re tracking the ball as a defensive back is your position on the field and understanding that once the ball is in the air you become the receiver. Too many young defensive backs worry about the receiver catching it or what the receiver is doing instead of focusing on what they should be doing. Just go out and make the play yourself, don’t worry about him. Know where the ball is and attack it. Put yourself in position to bat it or catch it and make the play.” ~ Antonio Cromartie
41. “You need to just understand where the ball is and how to use your body. Timing your jump the right way is crucial. Learn how to use your body to shield the receiver and box him out, again, much like a rebound. Trying to beat a receiver to a ball can be a lot like you’re posting him up. Rebounding is great practice because you can employ those skills – body position, leverage, timing – a lot more than you might in a football game or practice if the quarterback doesn’t look your way.” ~ Antonio Cromartie
42. “Guys have been having a lot of questions about whether or not I can play man-to-man, so I’ve been watching a lot of film lately. I’m trying to study tendencies of receivers that are already in the NFL, so I can have a jump on them once I get to that next level l so I can know what to look for and what to be prepared for.” ~ Calvin Pryor

43. “A wide receiver like me wouldn’t have won. The quarterback – or even the running back – always wins.” ~ Patrick Wilson

44. “To me, when you got a 20-year-old running back or 21-year-old receiver that’s just coming out of college and you’re out working these guys, age really don’t matter. So it’s easy for me to see what it is. People say it’s all about age, but to me, it’s mind over matter.” ~ Adrian Peterson
45. “Compare the credit for a football touchdown, which might be shared by the receiver not only with the quarterback, but also with the linesmen who make crucial protective plays, etc. The success of the touchdown play depends on the receiver, it is true; but in a particular case it might depend far more on the work of others.” ~ Ernest Sosa
46. “[My boys] they’re all different. Jackie was very competitive. He was a tough kid – a little bit like Nick. Steve was sort of a finesse guy. He was a little bit like Nick – if he could touch it, he’d catch it. He played wide receiver at Florida State. Then, Gary came along and Gary was more my size.” ~ Jack Nicklaus

47. “Every gift requires two freedoms: the giver’s and the receiver’s.” ~ Peter Kreeft

48. “If you have an area where high-income receivers concentrate, you have a higher fiscal capacity. That fiscal capacity is a valuable resource and will create rent-seeking. People will trying to get that resource one way or the other, including immigration. It is very much like the medieval peasants putting their sheep on the commons pasture. It is better than the open range, and if you let them have open access they will, in fact, put too many sheep on the pasture and waste the value that the pasture has.” ~ James M. Buchanan
49. “I’m not sure leaders listen enough, especially to their people. And I’ve always thought in everything I’ve tried to do in my life, in the jobs I’ve had, is that if we can turn our transmitters off and our receivers on more often, we’re better leaders and we know more of what is going on and therefore we can lead more effectively.” ~ Chuck Hagel

52. “Any time you do something, you make decisions about time and space. I wanted those decisions to be out of my hands. I could be dragged, carried along by another person, I could be a receiver. I could be the agent of the overall scheme, but I didn’t want to be the agent of the particular action. I could make the ultimate decision that my space is going to change now, but I don’t know where it’s going to go.” ~ Vito Acconci
53. “The fastest way to change the feedback culture in an organization is for the leaders to become better receivers.” ~ Sheila Heen
