“What's really good is (a pile of) grass cuttings or a decomposing log, a dead tree. Make sure it's in a sunny place and on the ground.”

“[At the same time, there is a growing pile of tidbits, in Roberts' opinions and in the Reagan-era documents dribbling out of the White House, that indicates he has strongly held and far-right views on major fronts—abortion, religion, and executive power. There's ammunition for principled opposition to be mined here. But the key attribute Roberts lacks from the point of view of the legal liberals, at least on the record, is an overarching, burn-the-house-down judicial philosophy. As a result, proponents of judicial restraint—an approach to the law that's become as fashionable among liberals as conservatives—are eager to embrace him as one of their own. Leftish advocates of restraint celebrate justices who don't reach out beyond the facts of a case to decide more than they need to and who respect existing Supreme Court precedent. They wrinkle their noses at justices who overtly seek to impose a rightward agenda (Antonin Scalia) and are willing to jettison past decisions to do it (Clarence Thomas). Roberts has never declared himself one of the bad guys, Sunstein pointed out hopefully in a recent piece in the New Republic . Instead he has styled himself as deliberate, lawyerly, process-oriented. His opinions on the D.C. Circuit court of appeals] avoid broad pronouncements, ... They do not try to reorient the law.”
Cass Sunstein
“You pile it all together and you have to lose the game despite the fact we still had a chance to win that game. We played horribly and still had a chance.”

“As if Hoosiers' budgets weren't being stretched enough to pay for record gas prices, Mitch Daniels is trying to pile new taxes on the backs of Hoosier motorists. Tripling tolls is not a creative idea and it's not a new idea. It's just a bad idea.”
Dan Parker
“They all just piled up when I got here.”
Albert Young
“As the piles are being dropped off from the vehicles, they're spreading the material out fairly flat on the ground, and then the dogs are running through the piles looking for any remains they can identify.”
Bruce Barton
“You would worry, because an IED would be in a pile of trash, it would be in a pothole. It could be almost anywhere. I was in a Hummer when an explosion went off and hit the second hummer after us.”
David Kotok
“As long as we can continue to find voids under the pile, it means that there could be somebody still trapped in there, ... We've talked to our medical doctors and they believe that there still is a chance, if all the conditions are right, for somebody to survive this.”
Bob Roper
“Rubble pile asteroids are something we always figured would be out there, and suddenly, 'voila,' there was one in front of us.”
Andy Cheng
“Every seat on that bus was piled high with bags of school supplies - people were unbelievably generous. As I walked down the school bus aisle, which I haven't done for quite a few years, I remembered how I took my education for granted.”
Cindy Hanson
