Becomes Quotes
This shows our big reliance on imports and foreign capital. As the dollar weakens, that becomes a more and more expensive habit. It makes our imports more expensive, makes the trade deficit wider, makes us even more dependent on foreign capital, weakening the dollar, on and on -- it's a vicious cycle.

Bulb Quotes
The power technology in lamps and windshield wipers today are really quite sophisticated. It is under the control of the microcontroller, which tells it how much power to allow. Rather than just turn on, it says 'I know this load on this lamp to be 4A,' and if the load exceeds that value, the lamp will turn off immediately. A traditional relay control would just turn it on, despite the short, and would burn up. Then you would have to buy all kinds of expensive pieces instead of replacing a bulb or a small wire.

Executives Quotes
With so much money invested in their most promising projects, Hollywood executives will understandably do everything in their power to make their products a success in the marketplace. Therefore, the most expensive films often also get the highest marketing budgets, and are slotted into the most favorable opening weekends.

Add Quotes
First he is short and then he is tall. He is out of the race to fight C, and then he is in the race to fight C. He's got this Polish guy and a grill salesman in an expensive RV with him running around the state. None of those things by themselves are noteworthy, but you add them all together and you get this real strange picture.

Adequate Quotes
While the ideals espoused in No Child Left Behind (NCLB) are admirable, the realities of the Bush plan are not, ... NCLB imposes rigid and expensive mandates on public schools. It judges adequate yearly progress using a one-size-fits-all formula, a measure that gives schools an incentive to lower testing standards in order to meet federal requirements and, sadly, to push out students that may bring down a school's average score.

Access Quotes
What I would love to see this bill accomplish, is for more people who are low-income to have access to preventative care and the only way that can happen is if we collectively spend more on community-based care. The ultimate goal is to make more people healthy, because you want to have people not get so sick that they need more expensive care.

Anyone Quotes
Even the largest of the global companies often have hundreds of remote locations that have just a few employees. WDS appliances that are optimized for larger offices are generally too expensive for these smaller locations. Yet their needs are often greater than the larger remote office. They require all the same functionality of the larger sites, but have no IT expertise. With Riverbed's new CMC, the Steelhead models 100 and 200 can be configured and managed without anyone in the branch touching them, while the form factor and price point make them a perfect fit for the small remote office. These new appliances fit the needs of the remote location with just a few employees like a glove.

Calls Quotes
Everyone talks about how we're on our phones all the time, but the fact remains that when I'm away on a film set for two months, I can Skype my family. I remember the phone calls my parents had to make when my dad was away for a while when I was younger - that once-a-week expensive phone call! The time pressure on talking to your father!

Hold Quotes
Corney & Barrow are proud to have the royal warrant, meaning that they provide the Palace with some of the greatest - and necessarily most expensive - wines from around the world. I am pleased to say that they also hold my own warrant, for providing exceptional wines at - surprisingly - modest prices.

Collectors Quotes
Ever since Pitt was wearing one, collectors were dumbfounded; they were saying that it wasn't an expensive watch, what's all the fuss about. I understand the prices have been driven up since then; people are even paying $1000 for them. I've met people that tell me that they spent two years looking for one.

Car Quotes
I've been driving in the city for years because, as a stand-up in N.Y.C., you can perform at more comedy clubs a night if you have a car. Getting from club to club by subway is too slow at night and too expensive by cab. So, many comics live far out from Manhattan and drive in every night.

Bill Quotes
The whole point of this bill was to create incentives for a technology that is currently too expensive so that over time it will become cost- competitive, ... Now, the unions will be artificially increasing the cost of the already too expensive technology in order to line their own pockets.
