Famous quotes by William Boyd:

"If you sell property of the state, state asset, which the toll road is, the money has to go to pay down the debt. Just the same as if you sell your house, you have to pay for that mortgage."

"I'm one of five individuals who paid to have a legal analysis of the bill done, and that analysis came back and said it is not constitutional."

"We have criticized these, but the real problem, the really irrational part of what is proposed, is the material on internal accounting control."

"But that relaxed version forwarded to the Title IV Subgroup still adds costs to state solvency regulation that aren't needed, based on the insolvency record of mutual insurers."

"The governor has asked us to be open-minded about this. I think the governor is so open-minded that his brains fell out."

"you realize that could happen on King's Road in West London, with that courier driving too fast."

"We had positive plays on offense in the end of the second quarter that carried into the second half. We will continue to work to get better."

"Griffin is a very good team. We made a lot of mistakes early, and they took advantage of them."

"What we wonder now,"

"I don't know where you heard the rumors (of annexation), ... I don't know where they got started. In any meeting I've ever been to, we have never mentioned annexation at all. It's never been mentioned."
