Annual Quotes
Far too few retailers have moved beyond the classic metric of comparable store sales increases to measure the annual or even lifetime value of a customer. Hyper-educated consumers have higher expectations for their retail experience, and hyper-sensitive shareholders have higher expectations for results.

Absolutely Quotes
The top players are playing better. Mike Weir , Jim Furyk , Ernie Els , Vijay Singh, myself... Phil Mickelson and David Duval were the exceptions, but overall, most of the guys you'd expect to challenge Tiger stepped up and challenged him. Were there classic duels with Tiger down the stretch this year? No, not really. Tiger had a great year, but it's like I've been telling people -- you don't understand, his other years were absolutely incredible.

Almost Quotes
is it any different to loaning a book to someone? There was a book in the US ( Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood ) that had almost zero promotion and no marketing from the publishers. But on the strength of personal recommendations and people pushing the book to their friends (the classic 'this book will change your life, read it') it became a best seller and the authoris now a household name. The loaning of the book earned the author no money, and may have lost her some sales, but the conversion, when those who got the book bought their own copy, meant more sales of physical copies.

Action Quotes
The Witch of Blackbird Pond examines society's intolerance about those who differ, using a witch hunt as the main action of the play. This book stands out as a children's literature classic and we're proud to be able to present it. This material is powerful to young adults the way Arthur Miller's The Crucible is for adults.

Access Quotes
The World Baseball Classic is going to have an extraordinary impact on the sport. The magnitude of the Classic is enormous.

Approaches Quotes
I've always been interested in public health approaches because it seems to me we have this yearning for silver bullets, and that is not in fact how change comes about. Change comes through silver buckshot - a lot of little things that achieve results. That's a classic public health approach.
-
Based Quotes
I usually decide if I'm going to do a movie based on if I like the script or not. I thought 'Pulling Strings' had every single element that a classic romantic comedy needs to be a success. It's very well written. The cast was amazing. It was a decision I made based on the power of the script.

Case Quotes
Romney is a classic case of re-invention. As governor of Massachusetts, he supported government-sponsored healthcare, was sympathetic to gay rights, and opposed harsh restrictions on abortion. After measuring the difference between the Massachusetts electorate and the national one to which he must now appeal, he has reversed those positions.

San Francisco is a classic bike town, and it is beloved by everybody. In our online reader poll, more readers chose San Francisco than any other city but Portland.

Argument Quotes
Putting is probably the most important thing in the game. It's that classic argument you always hear, but it's true. You can hit the ball great, but if you can't make anything, it's so deflating. The psychological aspect is huge. Putting is the source of where you really go in a round.
-
Bay Quotes
(Producer) Michael Bay has done something that is rarely if ever done and that is remake a classic and turn the remake into a classic. We have a shot to get into the $80 millions. It cost $9.5 million to make. I imagine this will be the (year's) most profitable movie vis-a-vis what it cost to make.

Across Quotes
Advanced data services activity in the U.K. is following the classic pattern of adoption -- first gaining traction within the technologically savviest group and then spreading across the rest of the majority. Time plays a critical factor, as the services with an established utility from an extended period on the market are first to gain the most from the mainstream audience, who demand products and services that are relatively glitch-free.

Art Quotes
Something happened when I was in elementary school. A Disney artist named Bruce McIntyre retired, and he had done drawings for 'Pinocchio' and 'Snow White' that was just classic stuff. He moved to the town I grew up in, Carlsbad, and he became a part-time art teacher at our elementary school.

Aside Quotes
This is horrifying and it's sickening. Aside from the beating itself, the other thing that was shocking to me was the officer keeping him face-down when he's in obvious distress and trying to turn on his side so he could breathe more easily. That's the classic position for asphyxia. Those officers are lucky he didn't die.
-
Appeal Quotes
This is still unknown territory. The question is how much of the appeal of a singer like this is because she's underground. It's a classic trade-off in the music industry. There are a lot of people that like that discovery process. They like to be cool. So when the artist actually gets over to a big label, all of their original fans will think the band sold out.

Anyone Quotes
A lot of people say my work borrows from Hitchcock, but I think if I've stolen... of COURSE I've stolen, this is a parasitic medium... but if I'm parasitic of anyone it's Welles, and Michael Pal and Kazan... those are my guys. The James Whale stuff... I LOVE the old B&W movies, like classic paintings.

Elements Quotes
A lot of the strength of an RPG world lies in its foundation: its systems, lore, and when appropriate, its magic systems. While there are elements tied to 'Project: Eternity' that at first glance seem to be classic fantasy, that's intentional - we do want to recreate some elements of a High Fantasy experience.
