I asked my parents for permission to study in America and they were so sure that I wouldn't get in and get a scholarship that they encouraged me to try. So I applied to Yale and got an excellent scholarship. I then worked for the Boston Consulting Group for six and half years.
Indra Nooyi

I brought together experts from health care, business, academic institutions, and the community to develop a comprehensive blueprint for eliminating racial and ethnic disparities in health care in the City of Boston.
Thomas Menino

I don't believe a manager ever won a pennant. Casey Stengel won all those pennants with the Yankees. How many did he win with the Boston Braves and Mets?
Sparky Anderson

I fell in love with Boston, so hopefully, I'll be here for a long time.
Johnny Damon

I felt like my pregnancy was a sacred moment for me. I stayed in Boston and I didn't work apart from the contracts I have, and then I only let them use my face.
Gisele Bundchen

I first saw the light in the city of Boston in the year 1857.
Edward Bellamy

I got private lessons in keyboard at Julliard, before New England Conservatory of Music in Boston.
Bernie Worrell

I guarantee you, if you could give me 10 points in all those seventh games against the Boston Celtics, instead of Bill Russell having 11 rings, I could've at least had nine or eight.
Wilt Chamberlain

I guess God made Boston on a wet Sunday.
Raymond Chandler

I had never been to the playoffs, and it was exciting. The fans went through the roof. They were excited about the whole team. It was great to be traded to a city like Chicago, which was a lot like Boston.
Dennis Eckersley

I have just returned from Boston. It is the only thing to do if you find yourself up there.
Fred Allen

I recently did a piece for the Boston Pops and John Williams, and I hope that it's as well a composed piece as I've ever done for any other medium or occasion.
Peter Maxwell Davies

I resent the fact that people in places like Boston, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco believe that they should be able to tell us how to live our lives, operate our businesses, and what to do with the land that we love and cherish.
Wilford Brimley

I was also the romantic lead in The Boston Strangler - I was the only one that lived to tell the story - so I called myself the romantic lead.

I was born in Boston, Massachusetts on May 16, 1923, the only child of Joel and Sylvia Miller.
Merton Miller

I was raised in Boston by three older brothers and a very strong and empowering single mom.

I watched Gretzky, I watched Lemieux. Maybe it's the time when you're playing, but for a kid coming into the league, you play the Boston Bruins and you just watched Bobby Orr.
Marcel Dionne

I won my first medal when I was nine years old. It was at the Boston Open.
Nancy Kerrigan

I write reviews of science books for the Boston Globe, so I like to give science books.
Anthony Doerr

I'd like to think that the nature of the two teams - Boston being a championship team over the years and the Lakers, same thing - was a lot bigger than Larry Bird or Magic Johnson.
