Finished Quotations | Page 6

I say he's the fastest kid in the state of Kansas. I say that because he took third in the state in the 100 as a sophomore with a 10.6 and the other two that finished ahead of him were seniors. He should win it this year. He just has that extra gear that doesn't let anybody catch him.

Penn State really finished with a great flurry. They really did well in the state of Maryland and they did well on the defensive line, not to mention them getting a receiver like Chris Bell. They also filled all their needs.

Pedro's problem finished his run prematurely, but this will not hamper our programme for the weekend, ... Other than that, it was a successful Friday practice where we ran through our programme and achieved the results, in terms of speed and consistency, that we had expected going into this weekend.

Our kids have finished games. They've played hard, they've bounced back. They've done a good job, but I've got to figure out a way to get us more ready to come out in the first quarter.

Our JV guys did an excellent job, especially coming off a championship game the night before. They played well and finished strong.

Our goal was, as the season went on, to get better. I think we did that. When we finished our year, I do think we were playing some of our best basketball at the conference tournament.

Our guys overcame adversity with meet management and finished the last event in total darkness. It was a very nice way to start off our conference season.

Our industries are under intense competition and for many of us, rail has been the most economical means of transporting in our raw goods and shipping out our finished products. Unfortunately, since most of our businesses are captive to only one major railroad, there is a monopoly of power and the railroads have been using this to dramatically increase prices and reduce service.

Paper comes in one end and the finished product goes out the other.

Over the past year, core intermediate goods inflation has been nearly 5 percentage points higher than core finished goods inflation. This is one of the largest gaps ever, and reinforces our expectation that a part of this early-stage inflation should feed through into finished goods prices in the coming months.

Our safeties are interchangeable and it's not that big of a deal. I haven't finished talking to Mike and Colin. We don't have to make that decision today and we haven't made it yet.

Our football knows how to play the second half. We finished the game. Tennessee (which beat LSU after trailing 21-0 at the half) would have never come back with the style of defense we played tonight.

Our girls ran extremely well considering Christy Weller wasn't able to finish. She would have finished first or really close to first. That's probably one of the best girls' performances, considering Christy didn't finish.

Our first two games against Quitman we played great ball. Quitman's defense was just unbelievable. I think if we could have finished out game two, we might have given them more of a run.

Our top five guys all finished in the top 30, so we're seeing improvement. It was the hardest course we'll run on this year, so the times weren't great.

Overall, it was a good day for us. We placed everybody but one kid. In a lot of cases, we finished above our seeds, so we were beating guys with a lot better records.

Overall I though that we competed well. But we still have some learning to do. I think we'll do well in the small school championships next week. I don't think we'll be in the top two. Last year we finished second in the league and came in fourth in the small school meet.

Overall, this was a strong out-of-conference showing at some positions and a good break for the team before they come back to conference action Tuesday. I was pleased to see how strong we finished against Menasha in our third match of the day. It showed that while everyone was tired no one on our team was willing to quit.

Overall the times were slower than the previous week, but Chris Yuknis, Pat Swanson, and Zack Kennedy all finished well,

Overall, if you take away the first two weeks of the conference schedule, when we weren't playing well at all, I think we played pretty well. We won 10 games and could have had five or six more. With the way we finished the season out, we will have a lot to build on next year.

Overall he finished 16th, but Levi is still one of our most-important skiers. He's one of the reasons we ended up where we did. He's always an all-out skier. The only way you win or get close to winning is to ski on the edge. And when you ski on the edge, it doesn't always happen. He pushes it to the extreme every time.

Out of 500 deals I've done, this is how I've done all of them, ... Ours is a straight deal. I just finished a similar deal with a national church organization. I'm really surprised.

Out of the blue, Julia goes, 'Has anybody worked with Clive Owen?' She'd just finished Closer,

Regardless of what the press said, she never saw the finished product because she died before. But she saw more than half the movie and she said she loved it.

Regardless of how I played, this was the best week of my life. It would have been the best week of my life if I had finished up on Wednesday, really. Being here for the first time you just want to soak up the experience as much as you can. But it also makes you hungry to get back, and prove that you really do belong.

Paul worked his butt off tonight. I thought he had waited too long to pass it, but he timed it just right and Mike finished it for us.

Our maturity and experience showed. We finished this game like you're supposed to.... We made plays.

Our manager had promised me that after we finished the Twister project, that was it. I told him point blank that we needed a break from each other.

Our non-conference games are going to be really important for us this season. Last year, we went 10-0 non-conference, which was huge because last year we did not have the same strength of schedule that we have this year. Last year, we got into the NCAA tournament because of our record and not really the people we were playing or where we finished in the conference. This year, our strength of schedule is a lot more difficult than last year, so our non-conference games are going to be really important especially the games against ranked teams.

People keep on asking me, but I'm as much in the dark as everyone else - and all I can do is score goals. I've not finished that many games. But it's the manager's prerogative - he's got a decision to make, and if he doesn't think I'm fit enough it's up to him.

People like that we give good service, and we can come to the home or to the office. I have another job also, but I really enjoy seeing the look on people's faces after I've finished detailing their car.

My subject enlarges itself, becomes methodized and define, and the whole, though it be long, stands almost complete and finished in my mind, so that I can survey it, like a fine picture or a beautiful statute, at a glance.

My natural accent is American. I chose to speak with a U.K. accent when I was about to enter the final year at drama school in London. I was going to try to find a way to stay in the U.K. after I finished college and could not imagine trying to live and get work there with an American accent.

Natalie played big for us tonight. She took the ball hard to the basket and finished strong on every shot. She also made a couple of great skip passes that led to some outside shots for us.

My wife was diagnosed with lupus 16 or 17 years ago, and that's how I kinda got involved in it. I just finished my fifth annual Bobby Hatfield Classic Golf Tournament, and happily I can report that we raised over $52,000. Through the years we've raised not only through the golf tournament, but through other charitable concerts, we've raised over $600,000.

My putting was horrible but it wouldn't have mattered anyway. I might have finished second to Phil, that's all.

Look at all the marriages that have been wonderfully successful where fellows finished their army service and came home to go to college on G.I. bills and their wives worked.

Matt is always saying that. He has not reason to complain. He started the whole thing by squeezing me in Turn 2 with just 20 laps gone in a 200 -lap race. I just finished it.

Matt did a good job in the second game before running into a little trouble in the seventh, which wasn't all his fault. Joey then finished it out.

Matt always thinks that. He got back what he started in the first place. He turned me sideways over there. He's got no room to complain. He started the whole thing and I finished it. He thinks I ran over him and he's screaming about it like he always does. It's amazing.

Marietta is a good team. They finished 9-1 on their trip and will probably be in the top 25 in the next poll.

I was thinking about leading when we were in the middle of the fairway, ... It was quite a dramatic finish, bizarre really. I suppose he finished with two pars.

I was very happy with the way he finished up. He galloped out strong, which is the important thing.

I was very happy with the girls -they kept on the attack, ... We lost the third game, and in Game 4, freshman Balee Cox served four consecutive points. That shifted the momentum, gave us back the lead and we finished it out from there.

I was too mental the front nine. I was happy the way I finished because of how bad I started.

I was happy we were in the hunt and we finished ahead of Kewaskum because they beat us in the duals.

It felt pretty good to beat the team that finished up second last year. It was a good opportunity to play a lot of people.

It felt like the monkey is off my back. When I hit that ball, it was a great feeling. Coach Butler (hitting coach Todd Butler) told me, 'You can't go 0- for-the-rest-of-your-life.' I know that. I experienced it last year. I was 0 for awhile then finished the year strong.

It feels good, but we're not finished yet. We have a goal and it's right in front of us. We have to go and accomplish it.

It feels good, but we're not finished yet.

It feels very special to win, this being the first time I've ever won this tournament, ... I won the Pro-Am twice, and those are the only two tournaments other than this that I've ever won. So I was pretty nervous heading into the backside. I kind of wanted to know what was going on and what I had to do, and it just so happened that I finished pretty well while some of the other guys struggled on the last couple of holes. That's why the margin of victory was as much as it was. With two holes to play I only had a two-shot lead. So it was tight almost the whole way.

I think she wanted to stay close to home after she finished here. Then after two years at Columbia State she will go on to finish her college at a four-year school.

I think people will go into each of these models and realize that these are finished houses. These are houses you could move into today. And we hope they are inspirational and we hope that people take away ideas not only about the houses themselves but also about the finishing of the houses. They are comfortable and functional and useful.

I think coming into the weekend expectations were high with the way we finished at the sectional. They swam their best last weekend. For them to come back and be faster, I would have been surprised.

It doesn't mean there aren't other contributing factors, the investigation is not finished yet. There may be other elements.

It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you're fulfilling that inner need, and for me the need is more the process than the finished product. My photographs are stories of the process.

It doesn't matter to us. We want to play Nashville right now because that means we finished fourth or fifth. We're just trying to finish as high as we can. If we end up finishing sixth and we play these guys, that will be fun, too. If we win the last three games, we have a shot at home ice, so that's our goal right now. After that, it doesn't really matter if it's Nashville, Calgary, Dallas, whoever.

It enables us to show a room of architectural distinction which is quite unique in England, to share the challenge of conservation that stood between the public and the finished room, and to share a room which helps us to tell our visitors more about the people and estates that supported Nostell.

I think I caused most of the problems myself by making too many mistakes but I was able to overcome them and finished the match strong.

I think I'm probably finished writing about it now,

I think I have the best house in the world. I thank God to have it. I thank God that I finished it. And I hope that I will live enough to take profit of it.

I think I had a pretty good season. Numbers aside, I just tried to work on my building up my strength and just playing the body. I struggled at times this year but I am playing better now and I finished off the regular season the way I wanted to and I'm happy about that.

I think he showed a lot of guts today because they came to him, and he had every excuse to chuck it in. He went 1:11.05 (for 6 furlongs) and picked it up to 1:34.81 (for 1 mile) and finished really well.

It couldn't have been any better, and we couldn't have finished out our road trip in a better way. They were very comfortable on the road. They were very relaxed. ... It was just like we were at home.

It didn't seem like we were going too fast. He'd run fractions like that before and finished well for me.

I think Linus would've liked to stay on with the team next year, but I don't feel it would be feasible for us to invest a lot of time and effort in a young talent who's already got one foot out the door. We gave him a contract offer for 2007 and 2008, but another team out-bid us. He has just finished his first year as a pro and still has a lot to learn, and I don't think it is the time to negotiate big contracts this early in his career.

I thought I had some good speed going in the top section and then I shut it down pretty hard and put myself out of the top 30. But at least I'll know what I finished right away. I'll either be happy or sad when I come across the finish line tomorrow because all the top guys are (starting) in front of me.

I thought I was finished then. I was thinking if I can't make the Devil Rays, can I pitch anymore? Is this it, is this how I go out? It was embarrassing not to be able to make that team.

John was not really pleased with his finish today. The boys are young and we have freshmen who just finished their second meet. They are still trying to get used to things.

John Sattler asked me to come down and trial with the Gold Coast Giants when they first started after I finished school,

Julie finished similar to how she did last year at the championships, where she was bumped from the finals at the end. She's just been solid for us on beam all season long and I thought her vault was the best vault she's ever done.

Just because of how we finished the season. But everyone knows how the fans felt about Ed the last few years. There was a lot of negativity. It's all about winning.

I think this is awesome for our region. There are six teams in our region that could beat each other on any given day, and any of those six teams could have finished in the top four. I'm glad our top four teams advanced.

I think this is an excellent class. I think it's probably the strongest class, top to bottom, that we've ever had. Almost every guy is a very good athlete in another sport. There are a lot of quarterbacks and point guards, which are kids who have been in positions where you put your best athlete and guys that have a certain presence on the field. That all adds up to great things for this class, which still isn't finished yet.

I think this team really started to blossom in January. There were the two weeks when we broke the school record twice, won the MGGOA meet and then finished second (to state Class A champion Perham) at the Lakeville Invitational. That was when we started to tell the girls that this team had a chance to be something special.

I think this team has good potential. We finished up strong last year, and I think that bodes good for the kids' confidence.

We needed a win. The defense stepped up big and that felt good. It felt like we didn't let one slip away this time. We finished it. No matter how bad things were, we finished the win. So, let's improve from there. Let's go from there.

We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth.

No piece of writing is ever finished. It’s just due.

The advantage is we finished on a good note, so that winning feeling is hopefully instilled in this locker room.

The animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the sense we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear.

That was the start we've been looking for all season. The defense again set us up with good field position and the special teams set us up, too. We had a short field to work with, but we finished it off.

That was the third time he had to wrestle his kid in the last three weeks. It was a tighter match, but Kevin finished strong.

The 2004 team was very young and finished strong. We have a lot of sophomores and juniors, and a couple of returning seniors to show some leadership.

That was because it was the last event of the day and it was an entire lap around the track. Your not jogging that lap either. I could never rest. I was never finished until the bus was warming up.

I was pretty proud of the way I finished today and finished the job off. ... I held it together. Anytime you finish with a birdie like that and a great shot, it means a lot to a golfer.

I was on the 15th tee. I just eagled 13 and birdied 14. Nicklaus birdied 10. I thought 'This is cool, Jack and I are now tied.' As I hit the water on 15, I looked over at the scoreboard and just as one guy was finished putting up the 'S-E-N' (in Jacobsen), the other guy was taking down the 'J-A-C.'

I was more concerned about the (defensive) end of the floor. I don't know if we had the zip we needed in the third quarter, but we picked it up and finished strong defensively.

I would loved to have finished as a state champ, but I'm glad I improved (from fourth to second) and got a chance to walk in the Grand March.

Mexican stocks finished in line with the Dow and the spreads on Mexican debt were almost unchanged. Investors still see Mexico as a safe haven in the region.

We need to reform the constitution as fast as possible and have a new election. We have not finished our duty yet. We still need constitutional reform -- that will be a real victory for us.

We just collapsed over those last six holes. We started out poorly, played really well for a long stretch, then finished poorly. We seem to go through peaks and valleys as a team rather than just as individuals.

We just came out hitting and digging. We should have finished it off in Game 3.

We just came back and started playing well. They had to foul us down the stretch and we finished up strong in the fourth quarter.

We just about finished mixing the record at my house in Hawaii, Crosby was there and Russell and Nathaniel, and when we figured out that we would be going out with CSN this year and that we had all this new music. I knew that it would be a burden for Stephen to try and learn 20 new songs, because they - they're not easy.

You'll be working all day and you'll have finished 12 seconds, but you get into it and you try not to look up.

Whoever finishes third should thank their lucky stars that Mike was not running, because he would have finished fourth if Mike was in the race.

Whitney beat a girl that ran varsity last week and finished in the top 20, so she ran strong.

We'll be up and running on day one. If all goes well, we should be absolutely, 100 percent finished and done by September.

We played much better as a team this weekend. We defended and finished much better. Now it's time for district. These are the matches that count.
