When I was in the GB Women's football team at the 2012 Olympics, it was obvious who was in the first XI and who was making up the numbers. Kelly Smith was going to be first-choice striker no matter what, and the other forwards in the squad mentally checked out as a result.
Alex Scott
In this experiment, made on the 9th of October, 1876, actual conversation, backwards and forwards, upon the same line, and by the same instruments reciprocally used, was successfully carried on for the first time upon a real line of miles in length.
Alexander Graham Bell
My dad was working abroad, in Iraq, and he was a doctor. We used to go and visit him, in Baghdad, off and on. For the first ten years of my life, we used to go backwards and forwards to Baghdad, so that was quite amazing. I spent a lot of time traveling around the Middle East.
Andy Serkis
I feel that playing the stretch four is an advantage for me because I'm quicker than most power forwards. I can shoot the ball well. I'm efficient, so I can use that to my advantage.
Anthony Bennett
Forwards do a lot of things intuitively.
Arjen Robben
Times have been tough, the economy has been tough. But I want to bring forward a fantastic manifesto for taking the city forwards.
Boris Johnson
I spent summers in my room listening to cast albums, like 'Les Miserables,' every night. I knew it backwards and forwards. I want to be the first black Jean Valjean.
Brandon Victor Dixon
I like the fact that New York looks a bit backwards, toward the Old World, rather than resolutely forwards.
Carter Burwell
I went backwards and forwards over it until I was 22. And then in the past few years I began to say to myself, OK, look, I'm not messing around. This is something I want to attack, instead of thinking, I'll just see what happens with it.
Christian Bale
It's a competitive business and obviously a lot of money is involved in the sport and the regulators sometimes have difficult decisions to make, but hopefully for the benefit of Formula 1 and all the fans across the world, we can move forwards into 2008 with all the focus on the race track rather than in the courtroom.
Christian Horner
All coaches now look for forwards who not only score goals but also run back and help in midfield.
Ciro Immobile
I've turned into a full-back who pushes forwards whereas in Italy usually the full-back concentrates more on defending.
Before I go up against the best forwards in the world - Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Neymar - I study their strengths and weaknesses like an obsession, and then I plan how I am going to attack. My goal is to show the world that Dani Alves is on the same level.
Dani Alves
As long as our civilisation keeps trundling along generally forwards, then there is the possibility of a future where ethnicity is merely an interesting badge, not a uniform you can't take off.
David Mitchell
Sometimes I feel an obligation to be accessible as a personality, but for me the driving force since the beginning has always been good work, taking risks, trying new things. If the door opens, go through it. Always go forwards.
David Soul
Tim Duncan is one of the greatest power forwards in the history of our game. Being younger and just watching him play, winning championships, that was always cool to be able to play against him.
DeAndre Jordan
I think, in some ways, that is the balm of stories, of fables, of tales: it's the way we're wired. We have always needed to distill what we're going through and try to understand it by looking either backwards or forwards. And the hardest is to look in the now.
Debra Granik
In actual fact, I doubled 'Twelfth Night' and 'The Avengers'. I was going backwards and forwards to Stratford. I played matinees Wednesday, matinee and evenings Saturdays, and the other days of the week, I was filming in Elstree.
Diana Rigg
I'm a guy who likes to keep fighting five, six times a year, so if I ask for too much money, they might say, 'Well, we pay you too much. We can't let you keep jumping backwards and forwards and promote it.' The money I'm making is good to keep grabbing short-notice fights. I love them; they're my favorite ones.
Donald Cerrone
I'm pro-forwards. Do I want the Seventies to come back? No. The haircuts were terrible. Everyone stank. The food was awful.
Douglas Coupland
I started playing as a full-back, but it's hard to chase quick forwards, especially for me as I'm not particularly quick.
It's an honour for me to be one of PSG's forwards.
The thing about Vegas is, I don't have to fly anywhere, and that really helps. It means I stay in one place for three weeks at a time instead of flying backwards and forwards.
It is not always about signing star forwards and midfielders.
We can be tackled but referees are there to police dangerous challenges. Forwards are protected by the laws of the game and the way it's played, while defenders and midfielders have to throw themselves about a bit more.
Ultimately it doesn't matter whether you go forwards or backwards: you need to live your life as well as you can.
Rooney is one of the best forwards in the world, if not the best.
A multi-racial team with a black captain means a lot to the country. There will always be negative political parties in South Africa, but hopefully it's something to take forwards.
I turn my feet in when I'm sitting down. I tend to put my arms across me when I'm sat thinking; I bend forwards. Loads of protective curves.
I only move forwards, never backwards, darling.
Fracture of the patella may be produced by muscular action or by direct violence. When produced by muscular action, it occurs thus: a person in danger of falling forwards attempts to recover himself by throwing the body backwards, and the violent action of the quadriceps extensor upon the patella snaps the bone transversely across.
The Bishop moves diagonally forwards or backwards, to the extent of the Board.
I feel like I can defend three different positions: point guards, shooting guards, and small forwards who don't want to play too much in the post.
Other projects later this year, but I think it's going to be a very very busy year this year with Star Wars and the re-release, so I'm sort of running about going backwards and forwards to America, Japan, Mexico. So there will be a lot of things to do.
I've always thought you have to live life looking forwards, not backwards. I've had no interest at all in who my ancestors are.
When you play with good players, they will always create chances for the forwards to score.
Because Led Zeppelin weren't having to worry about doing singles, each time we went in to record, it was a body of work for an album. So you could get the shift and the movement forwards as opposed to having to be rooted back to a single that might have been done a year ago.
Normally when you look at the Ballon d'Or winners, they're either attacking midfield players or centre-forwards. They are goalscorers and eye-catching players.
People used to share things with e-mail on a massive scale. If you remember e-mail forwards from the late '90s, it was a terrible way to share content.
When I started analysing games in 2001, I had a DVD recorder. I'd be at home watching the games just on a normal TV, watching what I could and trying to figure out what we would be facing a few weeks later. The problem was, in the team meetings, I'd always have to keep going back and forwards with the footage, trying to get to the right part.
My recovery has been backwards, forwards, up and down - and still is.
When you don't give the forwards the service, then it's difficult for them to score. Not everyone's a Gareth Bale.
Fortunately for me, it's my most favorite drill, and that is finishing. However, from a young age, soccer players in this country are not taught how to properly finish, and I think you see that through the professional ranks, that we don't have that killer instinct of the forwards from other countries.
Most of the power forwards in the NBA are 6'10', 6'11', making it difficult for a player at 6'7', 6'8' to the play the position.
Defending is not only done by the defenders, just as attacking is not only down to the forwards.
Only because you moved forwards, it doesn't mean you were effective. Sometimes it's the wrong criteria to be used.
Fashion means never to look too much backwards. It always needs to go forwards.
I do what the forwards do and score goals.
The Good Friday Agreement was an incredible breakthrough. But it's my view that the Hillsborough Agreement could see politics in the north come of age, and see us all move forwards on the basis of equality and partnership.
I'm one of the best all-around small forwards in the world.
