Round Quotations | Page 3

Neither economically nor politically can we afford a new round of the arms race, ... No one can dispute the Americans' right to develop what they believe is right for national defense. On the other hand, we are partners in a common alliance.

Obviously, the two top teams in CONCACAF are the U.S. and Mexico. We have the one blemish on our record when we lost in the first part of the final round in Mexico City, so it's nice to get that back, and it's very special to qualify at home against our archrival.

Obviously, the scores are real low. And the good news for me is I have to go out and play a really good round tomorrow. There's no holding on here. It's go out and be aggressive, stick to the game plan, give myself as many birdie opportunities as I can and hopefully I can convert them.

Obviously there's a long way to go still but I'm very happy to start off like this. You can't win the tournament in the first round so I'm just going to keep playing well and see what happens.

Obviously, that bad round hasn't affected his game. It shows you he's got a good mental attitude, and that's what you need in this game.

Obviously our main goal has been accomplished. However, the last two games in this round are extremely important, not only from a competitive aspect, but also in evaluating players.

Obviously I am very happy about my round today. Yesterday I was a little frustrated. I thought I hit the ball really well and I had a lot of opportunities. Today I do not feel like I left that many out there. I feel good about how I put my score together. I feel I hit the ball well and had a lot of opportunities and converted most of them.

Obviously, Bob was in shock, ... We were, too. He finished the hole and I'm keeping his scoring, trying to figure out on the next tee what he made. But I'm certainly not going to ask him. Well, hell, then I'm feeling so bad for him, I get up and yank it right into the water to finish the third round with a double bogey myself.

Obviously, 15-year-olds seeking learner permits account for a large number of the people who come to the (driver's license) stations each day. If we can develop an effective way to test many at once, it will greatly impact the number of people in line overall. At this time, this is just a pilot project, but results of the initial round of testing are encouraging.

Right down on the bottom man, you got to start there and work your way up. I mean I was a first round draft pick, and I hardly ever played.... He'll probably have to start at the bottom and work through everything to get up the ladder.

Peter was unlucky not to play in round one and then it has been difficult to make a change since, but he will play this week in the ruck and we have got confidence in him because he played well in most of the last 10 games last year.

One thing is certain, there is no shortage of trout on Sabine Lake. In fact, I don't think most of them ever leave. That's why the fishing is so good year round here. But lately, it's just been a test to try and find them from one day to the next.

Nick's round was pretty steady. A couple of his putts went awry, but he did well considering it was his first time on the course.

Nick's round was pretty steady, ... A couple of his putts went awry, but he did well considering it was his first time on the course.

Next year we're looking for a Round Two of Fed tightening. We're looking at 6 percent and beyond for the first half of next year.

Nobody said it was going to be easy. But you can lose one game in the second round and still advance.

Nikki played well below what she's capable, but golf can be cruel like that. Sometimes nothing seems like it'll go right during a round and Nikki certainly experienced one of those days today. The most important thing is to forget about it and move on to the next round.

On paper the Birmingham event was our worst showing of the season. But it showed the true character of the team that we stayed with it and had a good race car for Robert in Round 10. Electrical problems are the most frustrating to deal with because they're so hard to find. It's not like a suspension problem, that's relatively easy to diagnose.

On the course, I sometimes eat a little sandwich or a slow-release energy bar - one on the front nine and one on the back nine. You're out there five hours, so you have to keep eating. You're going to burn at least 1,000 calories. I'll try to take in about 400-600 calories during a round and drink water.

I was happier winning my first round than winning a tournament, just because it's a satisfaction because you've put so much work into it, ... You realize how quickly it could be gone. That's why you enjoy each match because it can happen again.

I was freaked out. I get nervous, believe me. I kept asking the guys if we got bumped. It was like in '99 at Memphis when we didn't make a good pass in round one and then it started raining and raining. Joe Amato would have passed us in the points if we didn't qualify but NHRA gave us all one more chance Sunday morning and we got in. I got no sleep that night.

I was real proud of the way our team came back and played in the final round. We were 17 shots behind after Monday and it would have been easy for the guys to mail it in. But instead, they came back and played with a lot of focus and a lot of pride. I think our final round is a real positive as we head into a pretty important stretch of our season.

I was real pleased with the final outcome. Kyle Williams had a great round and Jay Marney came back with a 76.

I was really surprised that the American team lost to the Mexican team, because we thought somehow the Americans would be the world's best. And because of that notion, when we lost the second game in the second round, we never thought that we would be able to be playing in the next round here.

I was really proud of the way we played this afternoon. Everyone played well and we were very consistent. It is nice to know that when we play to our potential, we can compete with most everybody that is that on our schedule. I'm looking forward to tomorrow to see how the guys respond after playing a great round this afternoon.

I was surprised. It's not that (Air Force) was not good. They didn't have any top-50 wins to stand upon, and they lost in the first round of their conference tournament, to a team with a losing record.

I would be misleading you if I suggested that (a first round of) talks resulted in any substantial change in the situation.

I was pleased with that because I'm not going to hit a lot of fairways round here -- my driving stats prove that.

If we're going to have a tax reduction ... I don't know why we wouldn't want it now, ... It won't hurt. We'll get ready for the next round of expansion in our economy.

I got involved in lots of different areas round about 2007, 2008. Just working with lots of different people and stretching myself in different ways. I was working on art projects and working with other writers, just doing bits and pieces, trying to keep busy.

I got off to a really good start so I knew if I could get three or four more the rest of the way then I would have a chance to win the golf tournament. I've worked so hard. I knew I had a good round in me and I got it all together today.

If we can get an agreement at the end of August, quickly thereafter in September we will move to the next stage ...the so-called fifth round of the six-party talks we would anticipate starting at very early fall.

I have been working very closely with Brandon and his family and it is with our blessing that he has put his name into the draft. Brandon will be able to take advantage and benefit from the rule and find out where he stands in the eyes of NBA coaches and general managers, while still maintaining the option of returning to San Diego State. We will continue to work closely with Brandon and if he is a first round pick, we will advise him to go. We are extremely proud of what Brandon has done for himself, for the University and San Diego State basketball, both on the court and in the classroom.

I don't have a problem driving 60 minutes round trip to bring my child to school. It's not a racial thing. It's a quality education thing.

I don't have any regrets about my run. It was fast-paced and I had a hard time finding a good position in the pack. I wanted to move on to the next round in the 1,000, where I thought I would be in with a chance along with the 500.

I did quite a lot of menial jobs. I was a waiter, an inventory clerk touring round properties listing cups and saucers, and a laserquest marshal.

I did play a practice round with (Nicklaus) at the British Open and I played really, really well that day, which is useful to that point.

I didn't give up. You can't win the tournament today. I'm happy with the round the way it turned out.

I don't expect a miraculous solution, ... As I've said, we shouldn't have unrealistic expectations that at this round we're going to be able to solve the Cyprus crisis.

I don't know what it is about the second round, but we just seem to step it up. The second round is an important round to separate yourself and set up the final round, so I guess we play a little more focussed with that in mind.

I don't believe that in the next round of voting I will be selected for the Hall of Fame, but just being on the ballot makes me proud.

I could tell he was gassed at the end of round two. I'll go even harder when I see someone is gassed.

Ideally, writers and narrative designers should be included much earlier in the process, where they can be of most benefit. However, although the industry is slowly getting used to fitting narrative professionals into games development, we're still going through a bit of a 'square-peg in a round hole' phase.

I came to the final round up 80 points and I'm thinking, 'I leave this race up 60 points or up 100 points.' That's huge.

I am disappointed. I didn't execute shots. I'm going to try to retrieve this round and have a good back nine.

I am a little surprised to be leading the tournament after an even-par round today. Everybody was moving up and down today. I'm just enjoying the moment.

I am going to have to campaign more if I want to win. Nobody ever wants to be behind going into the last round of the fight.

I am happy for our kids, they are an outstanding bunch who have put in the time and effort this season. We are going to the second round and take one game at a time.

I am kind of hoping he has a better year this year. If Dale Jr. wins, I always buy a round on the house.

I am in awe of women who have full family lives and seem to work round the clock in the 24/7 news cycle.

I believe we will carry on with good results after this sensational triumph. It is now up to us to break with a tradition that Davis Cup winners almost regularly lose in the first round the following season.

I believe that more than ever before there are evil forces round about us,

I am really proud of Michael Redd and Jordan Barrios today. Michael had his best round of the year. Jordan bounced back with a better round than our match on Monday.

I am really disappointed in how we played today. We have not been playing well lately and today was no different. Our goal for tomorrow is to come out and shoot the low round of the day. If we can do that, hopefully, we can make a move.

I am ready to meet him as soon as possible and I hope to sit round the negotiating table immediately.

I am sure there are people who feel like the round shouldn't have been washed and I'm sure there are people who are really happy. In the end, it will all even out.

Carol Anne played real well during a tough round because of the weather delays.

Carlos did really well in the Vuelta and he fully deserves his spot on the podium. He's an all round rider and it's great to see him prove it with a nice result such as this. It takes a lot to achieve a podium spot in the Vuelta, and I think he's been one of the prominent riders in this race - just as we as a team have been up front in nearly all stages. We took a brilliant stage victory, and with a little luck we could've taken a couple more. On the whole I'm very satisfied with the efforts delivered by everyone. Our aim was to get a good result overall and try for a stage win along the way, and we've achieved both. The team has worked perfectly and everyone down here in and around the team deserve big credit.

But all the issues come together in the third round objection.

Basically time is running out. They have a whole series of deadlines coming up in September. The problem is would US Airways be able to attract financing to emerge from bankruptcy again, even with a new round of labor concessions?

Chris played a great round of golf. He's been working really hard and it's starting to show some results.

I managed to get onto 'The Hobbit,' which is a story in itself. I missed the main round of auditions but managed to get a foot in the door at the last second - just as I came down with dysentery.

I love being able to sign autographs when I get that extra free time after a round just to be able to give back to the fans.

I have a lot or respect for the tournament. That's one reason I won't play anymore. I won't embarrass the tournament. Yesterday I embarrassed myself. I'm glad I got out with a decent round today.

I had hoped to build a buffer going into the last round but that was not to be, ... There is still a lot of hard work ahead, but I'm still happy to be right in front.

I had a tough match in the first round and sometimes that puts you in good stead for the tournament.

I have been having technical problems with my 200m all year. I am really, really quick now but I am struggling to hold it round the turn.

I have made clear that we can not accept a final package on the round that does not have a meaningful services element,

I have met Aborigines younger than me who used to hide every time anyone official came round their camp for fear of being taken away.

I had one round there to win (the Honda Classic) and a decent week at Westchester, but that's all. I haven't really performed at all this year. It has been an interesting year and one I wouldn't mind seeing the back of.

I felt pretty relaxed and pretty focused at the same time. The first round I got off to a slow start, so it was nice to get that out of my system.

I felt like the key to me having a good round today was feeding off of Chad Campbell. He played unbelievable. I was just trying to keep up. I made a couple nice putts there on the back nine that you're not supposed to make, but that's what you do when you have a hot round.

I feel we win all round with it, both in terms of standards of rugby and financially. It gives players the opportunity to test themselves against the best players on the pitch and revenue-wise it has been excellent for us and one of the major reasons we took the step to play in it.

I felt a little awkward in the early rounds. But I relaxed that fifth round and put together some good punches. That's what I was missing the first three or four rounds. Then I relaxed, I relaxed, I relaxed and I came back.

If I put another good round together tomorrow, I think I'll be all right. Hopefully, I'll get off to a better start and finish it off just as good.

I finally scored. For the round I played as far as ball-striking, it was one of the worst of the year.

I feel good about all of the workouts I've had. I've done well. Now it's a waiting game. I hear anywhere from the second to fourth round or the third through fifth round. I feel like I'll go in the third round, on the first day, but we'll see.

I feel like I'm one of the best defensive players in the draft but everything happens for a reason. If I go in the second round and I feel like I'm a first-rounder, I'll just go in there and prove myself.

I did my first round of chemotherapy on Monday. David knows about all of the tests going on.

I did mention small ball, but I didn't think we'd need it in this round because we are the most powerful team. In Asia, we're strong and we have speed and we were able to show that tonight. When we get to the United States, we may have to change our tactics.

I did a TV show called 'Unit 1.' It wasn't a bad experience, but yes, the first season I didn't have a good time because I was coming from Nicolas Winding Refn films where the corners were sharp and radical, but now we had round corners.

I can't program every step of the way of what would, we would hope, be a coordinated series of steps. But the intention is to go to the next round of talks and to begin addressing these issues in a way that's appropriate for the beginning of the process.

Great wide, beautiful, wonderful world, With the wonderful waters round you curled, And the wonderful grass upon your breast, World, you are beautifully drest

Growing up, I was always an offensive player. I was drafted in the first round in Buffalo. Just my role changed when I got to this level. Right now, it feels good to contribute offensively. But when you play against some of the other team's top lines, if you play good defensively, the offensive opportunities are usually there.

Getting to the second round is a real accomplishment for this team, and I'm happy we made it this far. I think girls played real well, especially since Revere is the ranked fifth in the state of Ohio (in Division II).

Four really turned things around. I never expected to make a 4 there. Then the birdies at 14 and 15 turned a good round into a really good round.

Freedom, long hunted round the globe by a succession of tyrants, appeared at this period as if about to erect her standard in America.

From a historic perspective, I would say that it is not uncommon for new technologies to emerge and for investors to become overly enthusiastic, which is what happened with Internet round one, and then become unduly pessimistic after their initial expectations were not realized.

(From IVGID's point of view) you may be looking at a rec center (annual) fee of $1,500, a round of golf for $250 and skyrocketing water rates,

Future's the only flower worth tending in this earth, / where I sow my words daily: and you know, / these good trees bear fruit round the year, discreetly, / moving along the waterways / and four seasons of the faithful sun.

I don't think anyone wants to lose the third round of the tournament. That's definitely one of the goals that I try to move up as soon as possible so I don't have to face someone like Lindsay in the (fourth) round. But it's here right now and one of us has to leave the tournament. But you know, I think we both give it the best shots, but that's the game.

If all parties could take a commitment to commitment and action to action based on the joint statement reached during the fourth round of the talks, and earnestly push forward the discussion and agree to take further steps, there would be a positive result.

If a square peg doesnt fit a round hole, neither the peg nor the hole is to blame. Between two people, the question "whose fault is it?" is the friend of argumentation and the destroyer of growth-oriented communication. Assigning blame involves listening to criticize and responding to defend, speaking to lower the other person rather than speaking to build each up. Relational progress is impossible as long as blame is the focus because blame and progress are enemies. In our litigation-hungry society we must take care that focusing on fault - which is proper for the courtroom - doesnt carry over into interpersonal relationships. The heart of loving communication is listening to understand.

If Adam doesn't go crazy tomorrow we've got a chance. That was a freak round he shot. It all depends what Scotty does tomorrow.

I expect him to be straightforward. We won't get a dizzying round of rhetoric. He will say what he means and mean what he says.

I expected to go third round or somebody would invite me. I'm just glad we all got drafted. Knowing I got drafted in the second round and being able to go home and play, that's a good thing.

I face Silvia Farina Elia in the next round and am looking forward to it as we played each other at the Olympics. I hope I can build on this win and go far in the tournament.

I enjoy tournaments where if you shoot a round in the 60s, you've earned it and you're going to move up the board. I'm 1-under par and I'm in 10th. That's pretty good.

I don't think it is right for us at Manchester United to be talking about winning the European Cup. Over the last few years we have slipped a noose round our own necks by consistently saying we have to win the Champions League because we have not won it since 1999. What we should be doing is concentrating on the Premiership.

I don't think I've had a bogey-free round for five years. I need to do it for another three days.
