It was important. We know they were a team that's been struggling all year and we just wanted to get this win tonight.

Sometimes the house of the future is better built, lighter and larger than all the houses of the past, so that the image of the dream house is opposed to that of the childhood home. Late in life, with indomitable courage, we continue to say that we are going to do what we have not yet done: we are going to build a house. This dream house may be merely a dream of ownership, the embodiment of everything that is considered convenient, comfortable, healthy, sound, desirable, by other people. It must therefore satisfy both pride and reason, two irreconcilable terms.

I talked to the team about defending our home turf; it's a lot like ACC basketball, where you have to win at home because you don't know if you can get a road win. It's big coming in here and winning against a good Silver Bluff team.

I used to take musical instruments home from elementary school. There were some music teachers there - we all learned instruments. A lot of us got started in public schools. Charlie Parker and Bud Powell, for example. But now there are no more music teachers in public elementary schools. It's like (Senator) Moynihan said, 'benign neglect.' Just let it rot and fester.

Where women have equality, security, and the opportunity to live, work, and prosper, their families and societies are better off.
