Relax Quotations | Page 6

It's easy to relax when you jump out to a 13-1 lead. After that, they pretty much beat us the rest of the first half. We kind of relaxed a little bit after getting a big lead. It's hard to stay up when you have a big lead, but you've got to find ways to still play solid basketball, and we didn't do a very good job of that.

It's easy to relax here and have a good time.

It's helping my tennis between the point, not when I'm running and hitting the ball. It's between the point that I have 20 seconds, I control my breathing, like in and out. A lot of time if you don't play well, is because you're getting nervous and you can't control. Your heart is pumping sometimes really quick. Meditation is helping me that I can control my breaths, I can just relax and ready for next point.

It's been pretty tough on him with it hanging over his head. On Monday, I think, he had something like 26 interviews to do. But now with the book launch over he's been able to relax a bit. He had a good sleep last night and went flying yesterday (Wednesday). He's pretty focused now.

It's senseless terror. It doesn't intimidate anybody. It doesn't relax anybody's resolve. It's just a personal tragedy.

Designers have taken a deep breath for Spring 2006. After several seasons of 'color! color! color!,' it's time to relax a little. Color this season is toned down, more muted -- they're not pastels, not brights, but a nuance in-between. We see this relaxation in the prevalence of blues, neutrals, and the classicism of black and white. Designers are still having fun, but don't need the stridency.

You try to make a good shot, and luckily it went off the post and went in. It's a stressful situation, and you try to relax as much as you can.

That means that the next government in Fiji will not be able to relax either. Fiji is fast heading down the road of becoming known as a banana republic,

That really woke me up you just can't relax on anything, because anything can happen to anyone. Coach Holtz has put more of a restriction on us, and during the season he really doesn't want us going downtown. When you come to college, where people know you, you don't know people aren't going to say anything, so you have to be careful what you do, and you always have to know that somebody's watching you.

It's such a special place. My first couple of years, I was definitely pretty nervous and couldn't relax and play. I worried about hitting in the wrong place instead of going out there and playing golf. I felt like the last couple of years I've been able to play golf and not worry so much about hitting bad shots, because everybody is going to miss it in the wrong place some time or another.

Everybody is going to be pumped up a little bit, ... I think that you've got to go out and relax and execute pitches the way I've done all year, and I'll be OK.

Everybody needs to learn how to relax in their lifetime. We can't be at the beach, but by God, we're going to have our time. It's just fun. We want to have a good time. Yeah, people are going to drink to excess that night. People are going to have their outlet somewhere along the line. That just happens to be our one day a year, so that's not a bad thing.

Take time for yourself. Sit back and relax because this is going to be a life changing experience.

It's a matter of having guys relax and not try to do so much. They just need to take a deep breath and try to make good contact. Sometimes, everyone is trying to deliver that blow, maybe trying to do too much instead of relaxing.

It seemed like the first inning might have rattled them a bit. We hit the ball well coming out of the gate and did what it took early to put us in a position where we could relax a little bit.

It's huge. The only way to get comfortable in this situation is to actually experience it, and as small a sample as it was, to get that actual experience was important. It gives me a lot more confidence and allows me to relax a little more.

It was a pleasant surprise. It puts the coach at ease right away. It allowed the girls to relax a little bit and just play soccer. It was our day.

It was nice to jump out and get a big lead like we did. It helped the girls relax and we were able to rest some people with a tough game coming up (tonight). I didn't want to wear them out and be sluggish on Thursday. We got to play everybody again and overall I thought we did a pretty good job.

It was nice to get out to a lead like that. We've had a couple tough, close games, and we expected Edgewood to be tough. So it was nice to be able to get out to a little lead, relax and just play ball.

It was nice to get a lead, relax a little bit, and get Radke some runs.

I've got to just relax until Thursday and get everything back in shape, and take the positives out of this week. They say you learn more from your losses than from your wins. And I've got a lot from this week to learn.

I've had a lot of offense behind me. That makes it a lot easier for me to go out there and relax especially when they're scoring early. It's a matter of me getting in rhythm and finding a pace that I work well at. I did that a little bit better after the fourth.

I've had a good time with these guys. I know their speed and know where they're going to be in their routes, and I know they were going to catch it for me. It was cold, and the ball was real hard. But it was fun. There's been a lot of anticipation up to this point. But now I can just relax and start working out again.

I've got a better feeling for him now. He's easy to ride, and I think we can get him to relax going 1 1/8 miles.

I've done this for five years now. You keep doing the same thing over and over, with the traveling, and you get burnt out. So I might relax and get away from it and then come back and go full force.

Not having to water means more time to relax and enjoy the garden.

I want them to relax and almost have that kid-type attitude. I just want them to take care of the process and play the kind of basketball they're capable of playing.

I want this club to be a place that will be comfortable for women in particular. So many clubs have a younger crowd, and I want my club to be where mature, professional women can meet up with friends, relax and enjoy themselves.

I try to relax yeah, right. No, you just have to take all of that energy and try to have the best performance you can.

It will be sentimental and emotional for a little while at the beginning and probably at the end on (Friday) night. But beyond that, we really need to focus on what we need to get done and not get too caught up in all that. We need to relax and be aggressive and approach it the same way we would any other meet.

It was good to see tonight that we scored some runs late and did put (them) away and were able to relax a little there in the ninth inning.

It was good to see him relax a little bit and get going. Obviously, spring training is not the best barometer for how you base these guys but, you know, he was 0-for-20 or whatever and he had a couple knocks so that's why you don't put a lot of emphasis on games like this because you can turn it around in one day.

It was good to get the opportunity. It helped me relax out there early on. The game turned out a little different, but that's the game of baseball.

They can relax together. And when you're around Jennifer, that's amazing, because I never thought that girl could relax.

They came out and hit some shots early and we got a little flustered. I took a timeout to try to get them to relax and told them to take it to them and they did it. They responded and it was such a team effort tonight. Everyone contributed offensively and defensively.

It was her telling me to relax and just play in the flow of the game. I think that the more that you don't think about your shot, the easier it is.

It was hard to relax much before then. With their three-point shooters and press, nine points can be made up in 25 seconds or less. So, that's why we couldn't get too comfortable until the last seconds.

It was a fastball down. No pitch is ever exactly where you want it, but that one wasn't belt high, right down the middle. It's not just Chipper. It's all those guys. You can never relax against them.

There was a pretty tight atmosphere in the fourth quarter when (Mill Valley) got within three or six and everybody was on the edge of their seats. We tightened up a little bit and we just have to relax and make those. I think the biggest thing for the girls is relax. Just relax and enjoy it, whatever happens Saturday, happens. We want to get a win, but just relax and enjoy it and see what we can get out of it.

There was an enormous amount of stress during the five Olympic qualifiers. I really hadn't been able to relax since the first Grand Prix in Breckenridge. But there's a good vibe here. There's not as much stress to be honest.

These paintings originally were painted for people who just wanted to relax and escape the realities of their world, like pollution and overpopulation. And they still offer us a tremendous escape. They're really just luscious paintings. There's nothing that can substitute for art that is about sensuality and beauty, and that's what we're offering.

This is kind of number that will let the Fed relax and keep cutting rates as long as they see a need.

I want to simply relax listening to some Jazz or dance my heart out listening to House, TripHop and all sorts of funky electronics.

After the second inning, I just started to relax and let it go. I just tried to hold on. We finally made our move.

After the game you can take a shower, not have to rush to a bumpy plane ride back to San Antonio. You can go to a restaurant or sit back and relax or go out in the parking lot and have some barbecue. I'm sure it will be a great feeling for the guys.

Anytime you give up three three-point plays like that, it takes something away from a team. That got the crowd involved. So all we had to do was relax and play.

Anytime you put up that kind of number, it just lets everyone relax a little bit and just kind of play off the game. It takes a little bit of the pressure off, certainly.

Anytime you ignore that urgency barrier and relax through that urgency barrier, you come upon and turn into self-knowledge.

That's big for a team that hasn't had a lot of success in close games. It's nice to see them relax under pressure.

That seven-run inning was the key. We got a good lead, and I was able to relax and throw strikes and go right at them.

That said, I can't afford to relax as Sebastien (Loeb) is doing very well... I'm just going to carry on going as we are and keep the speed.

Exactly. Crystal shoots the ball very well from the free-throw line, Pena has been at about 75 percent, and that pressure is something you really can't simulate in practice. Yes, we missed a couple, but for them to hit those, that gave us a bit of breathing room and allowed the kids to relax a little.

The key to both games were good first innings. Scoring early takes the pressure off and allows them to relax a little bit.

The feeling is like when you get into a pool and let yourself relax and float on your back. It feels like you're just floating.

I'm going to sit down and relax and watch some good NFL football man. It's a good time to rest the body and get recovered for the upcoming week.

I'm going to relax for a while. My joke is that I'm going to help my wife enhance her career. I have a few plans, but ... things will evolve as they will evolve.

I'm glad to be in position to have a chance to advance. We did not play very good on the front nine as a team, so we had to play really hard on the back nine. We were considerably down to Klein Oak (11 shots) at the turn. The kids seemed to relax and get more comfortable out there. With the threat of rain (today), you never want to be in third place after the first day.

I'm going to be prepared every day. St. Louis was my big lesson as far as experiencing splitting time with Ozzie. I found out that I couldn't go home and relax and say, 'I'm not playing tomorrow.' I had to eventually prepare myself to be ready to play. And this year is no different. I'm prepared to play every day.

I made the decision that I was going to play tonight. This was huge for us. Going on the road and winning is big, and we definitely want to win the series in two games so we can relax and prepare for the next round.

In her last two starts she broke very well. She can relax when she gets away fast early, and then she's really tough to beat. I'm not sure what's next. She's really a dyed-in-the-wool sprinter and you don't want to mess with that too much.

I mean, now nobody will disturb me about this, ... Nobody will say me nothing. I just relax and I take some time off, I guess. And I just prepare for next events. I mean, is tough. But you know, the tough things make you grow stronger and make you learn.

I knew I couldn't relax for a second against him. I couldn't let him get open for a 3 or drive for a dunk, because I knew that would ignite their whole team.

I knew once I scored this year that I would get more opportunities. So I've been able to relax a little bit.

I like it a lot. It gives us a sense that we get to relax and get away from the real world for a little while. Since last week, I have 8,000 new friends. A lot of calls, a lot of people knocking on my door.

I'm really pleased with the attitude of the boys tonight. They took the game really seriously, and didn't relax even towards the end.

I had to jump on them a little bit. They just needed to relax and play. They did a good job of adjusting to the environment and playing like they were capable.

I hadn't thrown that well the last few games but knew that I need to come up big today. There were some tough situations out there but I just tried to relax and breathe. And the defense was really incredible today and it helped me to relax knowing they would make the plays.

I'm hopeful to get one day off to relax in Calgary before preparing for the worlds. But it's all up to my coach. I'm really excited about coming home and seeing everyone and being back in the comforts of home.

If you don't have success early, sometimes the momentum can switch over to the penalty killers in a hurry. And they fed off that and the building fed off that. I thought it was tough for us to settle down and relax ... It was a chance to gain momentum and we lost that chance.

If you can't relax during your interview, then nothing you do to prepare will matter. Being yourself is essential to the selection process, and interviewers will feel it if you're too nervous. Showing fear or anxiety appears weak compared to a relaxed smile and genuine confidence.

In the first half, offensively and defensively we were really tight. Sometimes that happens on a big stage like this. So at halftime, I just told them to relax and just go out and play -- and finally we did.

In the first half everything went fine but we didn't build up enough of an advantage to allow us to relax for the rest of the game,

I just told him to relax and be him. He's a good enough player. He doesn't have to go and do anything special.

I just told him to relax a little bit. That was it.

I just really can't wait for this week to be over. I want to go home and relax my mind. I just got to get out of this game right now for my health.

I'll get to see my boys and get to relax a little.

I know him pretty well and it hurts me to see him like that. Once you have back problems, they're not going to go away the next day or the next week. If I could tell him anything, I'd just say relax and rest it.

I know he's a very quick guy. I just had to relax and release the ball quickly.

I know it's hard to say this, but you've got to keep saying it, that is to relax and deal with it,

I know coming in I didn't put any pressure on myself. I said, 'Just do what you're capable of doing and relax and have fun.' So far, I've done that. I haven't put any undue pressure on myself. I think it's translated into being more relaxed -- being able to have fun.

I just forced myself to relax today. I've been very tense up at the plate. A lot of guys will tell you when you're going bad to just slow the game down a little bit.

I just forced myself to relax today. I've been very tense up at the plate.

I help people come in and relax and tan and go home.

I haven't seen this region, or many others for that matter, that are this balanced where you play a solid team each week. There are no games on the schedule that you can point to and say 'we should win that one,' ... You can't relax on any week. But I think that makes everyone better.

I have to relax and wait for the ball to come to me.

I really don't think about it too much because I'm already prepared and I know what I have to do. I know my assignments, so typically, I just try to relax and get some good rest in. As the game approaches, I start thinking about things.

I really like the approach this team took during the indoor season. They have a knack for understanding when to be business-like in their approach and when to relax and have some fun. They know what needs to be done and they do the right things the right way. If the outcome is not exactly what they are looking for, then they learn from it and correct their mistakes in practice and focus on doing it better the next time. Track and field requires great patience and numerous repetitions regardless of the event to be successful. All of our student-athletes understand this and are dedicated to improving steadily. As a coach, that's all you can ask for.

In that situation now, I'd relax more and enjoy it, not get so uptight about everything. I think the guys who can do that are really successful.

In terms of maintaining independence, strong sales growth, particularly Asia, is a plus. The headline figure should relax pressure on management.

It helps a lot. You won't get too excited, that high emotion where your blood flows too much, where you're throwing the ball away. You know how to keep your composure and just go out there, relax and play basketball.

I think our guys were just anxious. It?s the first day. You want to drive guys in on every pitch and make every pitch a strike. You press a little bit. When they relax it will be a different story.

I think now we are 1-0 down, it's almost like the pressure's off and we can just go and relax and play.

I just started to relax and concentrate harder. And then to have an inning like the sixth, it just gives you all the confidence in the world. You know, I was just hoping for one run.

I just wanted him to relax a little bit and get him into the flow of the game.

I just didn't start off very well and it was a long day. All day I was grinding, but I stayed as patient as possible and I have three more days to get back into it. I will go home, relax and put this day behind me.

His ambition and his agenda. There was a kind of a ruthlessness, a driven-desire thing that was just exhausting for me to play. You could never kind of relax into a scene and just not care about what you wanted. He was always on point. He was driven.

He stayed within himself and I thought that showed a lot of maturity to relax and do what he's practiced. He's an excellent player.

I don't know if it is good or bad to have that one left. At least we should have good greens and less wind in the morning, so hopefully it might be easier but you can never tell. I will spend 10 or 15 minutes on the practice green before hitting the putt. Then I will relax a while before doing it all over again. Tomorrow is another day.

I didn?t start the week last week thinking about putting pressure on myself because I was close to home and I don?t want to do that this week, but I want to be prepared. I?ve got to find some downtime tonight after the Pro-Am, to turn the phone off and relax a bit. I?ll be ready.

I know that I shall have lost to the jungle if I take a weak moral standpoint or relax my mental punctiliousness. I have therefore come to a certain belief which is based on three powerful effective commandments: THOU SHALT BE ENTERTAINING AT ALL TIMES. THOU SHALT OBEY THY ARTISTIC CONSCIENCE AT ALL TIMES. THOU SHALT MAKE EACH FILM AS IF IT WERE THY LAST.
