“To keep every cog and wheel is the first precaution of intelligent tinkering”
Aldo Leopold
“Emotion resembles a wheel spinning free. When the cogs work, action begins, emotion ceases.”
David Lindsay
“That's been our lineup since the preseason. When you take a cog out of that, it kind of throws everything off and put us off-balanced. We came out in the second half and played some basketball with our starting five.”
John Davis
“Are Oliver Perez and Kip Wells important pieces as far as cogs in the wheel are concerned? Sure, they are. But I don't like any of my players -- and I go back to having Gary Sheffield , Kevin Brown , Shawn Green -- coming to work and feeling like, 'Hey, if I don't do it, then we as a group can't get it done.' This will be my sixth year as a manager, and that won't change. I believe you'll get more from the individual if he feels like he's a part of something and can, from that point, just relax and be who they're capable of being.”
Jim Tracy
“It was nice to have Eric Manning back for his first game. He is a cog in our offensive and defensive lines.”
Ron Jones
“Certainly it was a blow. He had had such a good spring. He's a key cog to this whole club.”
Kevin Towers
“In picture-making the writer is the most important cog in the wheel.”
Samuel Goldwyn
