I remember back in the 70s during my really assertive days someone took me to dinner with Lola Falana. And she was talking about her backup dancers; she kept calling them her "boy dancers" so my guard was already up. Then she said "I also like John. He`s ...
Lily Tomlin
[Hearing about Elvis Presley had Elvis reportedly told one of his backup singers that he thought no one would ever remember him]: That`s incredible. Elvis swims in our minds, and in the emotions all through time.
David Lynch
My advice to anyone contemplating acting as a profession is to be independently wealthy or have another vocation as a backup. Melanie and Antonio are well set, but most actors make a pittance.
Tippi Hedren
With the quarterback situation like it is right now, we don`t know what it`s going to be from a backup standpoint. Then we scored on the first drive and were moving the ball and the one bad play. So we said, `You know what? Everything`s moving pretty good...

Well, I actually first got into music as a small child, and as I became a teen, I sought out making money from music, weather that was singing lounge gigs, backup in studios, or weddings.
Chantal Kreviazuk
We`re just getting a ton of reps. Sometimes if you get caught without a backup you just keep going and going and going. He`s really telling us if we can fight through that and play hard and still play fast, when we get in the game when it`s slower paced w...
Scott White
We have talented guys, and my job really is to get those people the football. As a backup, you just want to go in and not have any hiccups when the starter is out of the game. Just move the ball and have things work. It`s like being an offensive lineman i...
Tim Hasselbeck
We always used to say if something happens early in the season, the backup quarterback is best prepared because he`s had all of training camp. Now what we say is the next best thing for it to happen, if it has to happen, is during the bye. Because it give...
Ann Beattie
Once we get the primary engine in the backup (car), we should be fast. I am not really sure why the (primary) car did what it did. I was down low and the car was sticking, and then all of a sudden it was headed to the wall.
Art Doten
Not bad at all considering everything we went through. I had what I had and had to make the best of it. We`re trying a lot of new stuff and we didn`t get much time in the backup car in practice. The Army car wasn`t comfortable enough and we didn`t have an...

Look, if you`re going to have millions of vehicles going on the highways, am I going to predict no traffic jam in next three days? Obviously not. There will be a bunch of vehicles moving, and all it takes is one stalled or wrecked vehicle to create a back...
Anete de Souza Canto
Leadership doesn`t come from age. He`s a young leader. He`s not just any other backup quarterback coming into the game. We know what he`s capable of.
Tony Gonzalez
It`s not the ideal situation when you can`t use the best stuff you bring to the track. We just never found a comfort zone with the backup Army Chevrolet.
Art Doten
It`s not a threat, if that`s the word, ... All people need to know is that our backup quarterback, Luke McCown, is only in his second year in the NFL and second year in the system. Rattay has been in this system before and coach wants a guy who`s been aro...
Anthony Calvano
It`d be nice to get a couple warmup throws, but I went out there cold-turkey. And that`s what a backup needs to do - be ready at any time. On this team, with Brett Favre in charge, that doesn`t happen much, but if I am the No. 2 guy, I`ll definitely be re...
Aaron Rodgers
It was a tough time. Eddie was the starter, I was the backup. Fortunately, Mike traded me to Buffalo and it was good luck for me. Finally, I proved to myself I could be a starting goalie.
Dominik Hasek
It looked like a pretty good situation, ... I don`t know if I`m going to be a backup. I don`t know if I`m going to be backing up a backup. I don`t know if I`m going to be a starter.
Jim Moore
It looked like a pretty good situation, ... I don`t know if I`m going to be a backup. I don`t know if I`m going to be backing up a backup. I don`t know if I`m going to be a starter.
Jim Moore
It hurt us, because he`s the guy that gets the majority of the reps. But that`s part of football. Your backups have to be able to step in and do the job. (Sophomore backup) Kenduall (Thorbs) did a good job. But that wasn`t the deciding factor tonight.
Barry Asmus
If your backup ticket is a full-fare ticket, then it`s totally refundable. If it`s an advance-purchase ticket, you`ll only be able to apply it toward future tickets on that particular airline (if the strike doesn`t materialize, or if a walkout quickly end...

Barb Gibson
I want the team to be better, ... So it is kind of unfair to be selfish and not try and help my teammates out. I am very competitive, though, and I do want that backup job and I`m playing as hard as I can to get that. I`m not going to not talk to somebody...
Jesse Palmer
I like to game plan against a defense, not a person. I look at a backup just like I do a starter. We`re going to take the same amount of shots we would if their starters were in there.
Daunte Culpepper
Damon Allen is obviously the starting quarterback, but I`m coming in with the mind-set that I want to be a starter. I`m going to come and compete for a job, and if it`s as a backup that`s where it is ... I`m excited to have (Damon) there. It`s going to be...
Angela Thompson
An HOV enforcement right in the middle of the HOV lanes is just asking for a backup. Enforcement is good, but the way they enforced it this morning, I`m not sure the benefits outweighed the costs.
Chris Atkins
We will still fight on November 5th. Everyone had been telling me all along to have a backup plan because Calzaghe was going to fallout. I had too much respect and trust for Frank Warren and Joe Calzaghe to do that but those days are over.
