Skating takes up 70 percent of my time, school about 25 percent. Having fun and talking to my friends, 5 percent. It's hard. I envy other kids a lot of things, but I get a guilt trip when I'm not training.
I play football in training all the time with my male friends, who are also professionals. But playing together in competition? I just don't see it. We have the ability, we have the technique, we have the tactical understanding, but there are physica...
Tanner Bolt: I will drill you as if you were doing a deposition. What to say, what not to say. Margo Dunne: A trained monkey? Tanner Bolt: A monkey who doesn't get the lethal injection.
Man on train: Don't take that tone with me, young man. I fought the war for your sort. Ringo: I bet you're sorry you won.
Man On Train: I shall call the guard! Paul: Ah, but what? They don't take kindly to insults, you know. Let's go have some coffee and leave the kennel to Lassie!
Cate Wilson: Hachi? Hachi? Oh, old thing! You're still waiting. That's right. If it's all right, could I wait with you for the next train? Yeah? Thanks.
[an Air Force base prepares to scramble fighters when Iron Man appears on the radar again. Rhodey appears and hangs up the phone] Rhodey: Not necessary, people. Just a training exercise.
Giosué Orefice: I didn't like the train. Guido: [to his son] Me, neither. We'll take the bus back, okay? Guido: [to the Nazis] Did you hear that? We're taking the bus back!
The Gyro Captain: No! It's *my* snake, I trained it, I'm going to eat it! I got a recipe for snake. Delicious. Fricassee of reptile. You are what you eat.
General Omar N. Bradley: There's one big difference between you and me, George. I do this job because I've been trained to do it. You do it because you LOVE it.
Alain van Versch: Is that you in the photos with the orcas? Stéphanie: Yes. Alain van Versch: Is it your job? Stéphanie: Yes. Alain van Versch: I'd never have imagined! Stéphanie: Why? Can't a whore train orcas?
[about killing] Stanley Goodspeed: How do you... do it? John Mason: I was trained by the best. British intelligence. But in retrospect I would rather have been a poet. Or a farmer. Stanley Goodspeed: Okay.

Marcus Licinius Crassus: I understand - I'm informed that Spartacus once trained under your auspices. Lentulus Biatatus: Yes. In fact, if it isn't too subversive to say so, I made him what he is today.
