I think we're all, the parents. are naive because we're kind of living in the past and as Boise grows and more people come into our city we need to be a lot more on top of it than the parents are now.

We, who are the living, possess the past. Tomorrow is for our martyrs.

I think what the living-wage movement has done in the past 11 years is incredible. How many other issues are there where progressives have been this successful? I can't think of one.

A lot of parents are extremely thankful we're trying to fill a void they'd had in the past. We've been looking for a long time to fill in the gap between regular ed and special ed students, which wound up being our biggest percentage of dropouts.

When you get 400 wins, it reflects the kids you've had in the past, it reflects the parents, it reflects the program itself, the coaches. We're just trying to win a basketball game. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, it doesn't.
