Officials Quotations
Officials Quotes from:
-
Biking Quotes
Safe Routes to School is one with great potential to get children walking and biking to school again. The program uses federal grants to make road and sidewalk repairs aimed at getting kids to school safely on foot or bicycle. The money also supports efforts to get the community, school officials and others involved.
-
Abroad Quotes
In general, I avoided giving lectures or attaching myself while abroad to a university. To learn what I wanted to know, I went instead to rural communities and onto actual farms. Talk with university people, government officials and U.S. personnel stationed in the country was much less rewarding for me.
-
Balkans Quotes
Let's make a deal with the Serbs. Neither history nor emotion in the Balkans will permit multinationalism. We have to give up on the illusion of the last eight years... Dayton isn't working. Nobody - except diplomats and petty officials - believes in a sovereign Bosnia and the Dayton accords.
-
Balance Quotes
No work-family balance will ever fully take hold if the social conditions that might make it possible - men who are willing to share parenting and housework, communities that value work in the home as highly as work on the job, and policymakers and elected officials who are prepared to demand family-friendly reforms - remain out of reach.
-
Benefits Quotes
Many of the benefits from keeping terrorism fear levels high are obvious. Private corporations suck up massive amounts of Homeland Security cash as long as that fear persists, while government officials in the National Security and Surveillance State can claim unlimited powers and operate with unlimited secrecy and no accountability.
-
Boundaries Quotes
Governments can no longer control 100 percent of the story. Time and geographical boundaries disappear. In places like China and all over the Middle East, social-media outlets are being used to expose and hold accountable public officials that don't want to be held accountable for corruption and human rights abuses.
-
Came Quotes
Ironically enough, why I got into politics is because I came to the conclusion that if you wanted to save the world, which in my mind was through the environment, those elected officials seemed to be the ones who made a lot of the important decisions, if not the most important decisions.
-
Actions Quotes
When conducted with proper preparation, and in a focused and professional manner, oversight of executive branch actions can reveal serious shortcomings by government officials and help prevent recurrence; the 'Waco hearings,' conducted over a two-week period in 1995, stand as an example of such an undertaking.
-
Complain Quotes
'CSI' has not only remained a top-rated show through seven seasons; it has had real-world consequences. Police and prosecutors complain of a 'CSI' effect' that leads juries to demand more physical evidence than they used to expect. College officials use the same term to describe spiking enrollment in forensic-science programs.
-
Airport Quotes
There are certain evacuees who have been rescued from their nightmarish scenarios, and they have been taken to certain airports where they are waiting for airlifts and people are able to receive them, ... We are working more closely with state and local officials to develop a comprehensive plan while all the while airlifts from the New Orleans airport have continued.
-
Acting Quotes
We believe that everyone executing the leasing and financing documents thought they were acting under the authority to execute those documents. We are conducting our own inquiries into whether those parties had the proper authority to take those actions. It is apparent that Mr. Smith did not act unilaterally, but was acting in concert with officials in the county. We are working to resolve this matter right away with all parties, including National City Bank and Butler County.
-
Adopted Quotes
With the rule changes that the league has adopted for the upcoming season, we believe that Stephen is ideally suited to provide direction and guidance to our on-ice officials. His judgment and professionalism on the ice, coupled with the respect he has earned as one of the top officials in the game, will be of great benefit in his transition to the officiating management ranks.
-
Agree Quotes
We're still hopeful he'll agree to testify, ... If he declines, we have a very important hearing next week and we'll go ahead without him. Ford has been very cooperative in providing information. They've offered two very high-ranking officials (to testify). We'll see what they have to say. One way or another we'll get to the bottom of this.
-
Call Quotes
We've got great officials in this league. Now it's up to us to train them so that penalties are the same in every game. I think we need to be clear that it's impossible for every crew to get every call right. But we need to be sure that going into the game every official's definition of a penalty is the same. Judgment may overshadow that at times, but I know our guys will try to do it. We're going to win the battle.
-
Achieve Quotes
We want to provide a forum for people working within city and county governments to see what's new in the sustainable movement, and give them tools to achieve their goals of building sustainable projects in their own communities. We'll also have case studies and dialogue sessions where private developers can talk to local government officials about their concerns.
