Too many historic houses have been destroyed. I'd welcome any kind of effort to protect them. Our town's history definitely has to be preserved.

Lots of us bought houses here because we thought all of this would be housing. It's a good neighborhood, it's quiet and now you want to add 90 to 100 apartments to it. If there's anything we can do to buy time, please let us do so.

We played a great defensive game. We played with a lot of intensity and a lot of effort. These guys gave everything they had tonight. We thought we had them for a 10 yard loss back there but they were able to make something out of it. I think if we had gotten them stopped there it might have sealed it up.

Whatever happens in the world - whatever is discovered or created or bitterly fought over - eventually ends up, in one way or another, in your house. Wars, famine, the Industrial Revolution, the Enlightenment - they are all there in your sofas and chests of drawers, tucked into the folds of your curtains, in the downy softness of your pillows, in the paint on your walls and the water in your pipes. So the history of household life isn't just a history of beds and sofas and kitchen stoves ... but of scurvy and guano and the Eiffel Tower and bedbugs and body-snatching and just about everything else that has ever happened. Houses aren't refuges from history. They are where history ends up.

That gives us credibility in the state houses and in Washington, D.C., that Farm Bureau speaks on behalf of the individuals who produce our nation's food and fiber.

A teacher always has to make the effort. Whether it's Chicano history or any other. We don't want to go back to the way things were, back when black kids got hand-me-down text books after white kids had used them ? if they got textbooks at all.
