Fredrik Bajer

Since they all broke up the greatest conference in football, which was the Southwest Conference, I've had little interest in them any more. I thought that was a disaster and a disgrace when they did that, but they did it anyway. So I've lost interest them and I don't care what they do anymore.

Gib Lewis

All I know is, as long as I led the Southeastern Conference in scoring, my grades would be fine.

Charles Barkley

There is no way I could've been so durable playing in the Western Conference. The travel is nuts.

Martin Brodeur

There is no doubt that my former manager Sir Alex exerted an influence over some referees. He was the master of dropping a comment into his Friday press conference - for instance, how long it had been since we had been given a penalty, or the treatment meted out to a player like Cristiano Ronaldo.

Rajon Rondo

To be honest, I've been back to Atlanta a couple of times, I can't remember what for. One for a big conference, a radio conference. I feel like it's a vibrant place. It has a vibrant music scene.

Curt Smith

The greatest blessings of general conference come to us after the conference is over. Remember the pattern recorded frequently in scripture: we gather to hear the words of the Lord, and we return to our homes to live them.

Robert D. Hales

There is no structural organization of society which can bring about the coming of the Kingdom of God on earth since all systems can be perverted by the selfishness of man.

William Temple

I'd rather be a non-All-Star playing in the Western Conference finals than an All-Star who's sitting at home in May.

Stephen Curry

I made the step up from the Conference North to the Conference Premier. The difference in standard is quite big in those two leagues.

Andre Gray

I really don't like conference calls to be honest. It's always something that bloody happens with a conference call - universally never works out.

Karen Elson

Lucas attended a conference on rational expectations at the University of Minnesota in the spring of 1973. The day after the conference, I received a call from Pittsburgh.
