It seems as though all the souls of all the writers that have bequeathed their labours to these Bodleians were reposing here as in some dormitory, or middle state.

When we were a club band, we always used to say, 'Man, if we ever see success, we'd like to open doors for other people, to push the boundaries and fully contribute something to art, to music, that is going to help it evolve instead of doing stuff for the sake of money or doing stuff for the sake of being popular.

A lot of marketing we're doing is promoting Red Scare without the Second City name or the Denver Center name.

When I was a child, I lived in Morocco, and I would always buy a lot of beads from the markets and to make jewellery for friends. Later, at 18, I would do my own clothes and make my own patterns. When I first came to New York, people just assumed I was a stylist because I was so into fashion.

David Singer

Tom's has a strong heritage and solid reputation in the snack food business, and we believe that this opportunity will make our company stronger.

We are confident that the combination of increased sales and operating synergies will create value for Lance, Inc. stockholders.

Chris Killingstad

We remain solidly on track to deliver our 2006 financial goals of double-digit earnings per share growth and mid to upper single-digit revenue growth. We continue to make progress on our medium-term goal of 9.5 percent operating margins.

We remain concerned that Dell may push industry pricing levels lower, responding to actions by competitors, lowering everyone's operating profitability,

George Ellis

What we're looking for is a sense of uniformity. It would be clearer and less confusing to be operating under similar standards.

Howard Ikeda

We can cover our operating expenses without the revenue from UH and we have a cushion. Notwithstanding a total disaster, these projections should hold.

William Floyd

We believe this transaction fairly reflects for our stock holders the many improvements we have made throughout Beverly in recent years, as well as our strong operating and financial momentum.

Rick Sherlund

We believe this provides little to no remedy, given that the operating systems business is still a monopoly business as determined by the court.

E. Hurley

What's not well known is they're not in the business of stealing things and theyre not hackers. It's best to think of them as a fence between the buyer and the seller.

Donald Rumsfeld

Van Chancellor

When we got a one-point lead we ought to find a way to win, but we didn't.

John Kasich

When we give a subsidy, the benefits to the public ought to exceed the benefits to the company. When it doesn't, that's our definition of corporate welfare.

We believe very strongly that the purpose of penalties ought to be to deter, not to punish for its own sake.

M. Wolfe

We're just a fart in the wind. This ought to take care of all that silly dynasty talk.

Eric Schmitt

We're going to see a longer PC lifespan,

Dan Scovel

What we're seeing is an extension of PCs. We're probably going to see those companies with PC exposure get penalized by association with the PC market. That's not necessarily fair across the board, but the bigger the exposure to PCs, I would say the bigger the uncertainty that there won't be a problem.

Andy Neff

When we downgraded the PC stocks in September, we were concerned about signs of weak consumer demand -- which has continued to deteriorate.

Andrew Neff

When we downgraded the PC stocks in September, we were concerned about signs in the weak consumer demand -- which has continued to deteriorate. Now we are seeing signs of this weakness spreading into small/medium corporate and of aggressive pricing in low-end servers. This weakness is bound to spread.

Chris Whitmore

We believe Vista will spur a positive mix-shift across the PC industry, reversing the recent shift towards low-end desktops and notebooks.

Paul Judge

Very few supercomputers on Earth have that sort of power. What sort of problems could you apply that threat to? We deal in DoS attacks from thousands of PCs - but millions? Most risk models today assume a finite capability for the adversary, but this completely changes that.

Rachel Elkins

When it came down to it, there were three teams in the running for second place. The percentage of individual wins for Matt and Josh were higher so they took second.

Chris Faircloth

We're more consistent on our assignments. We run our routes better. Still, we're not at the completion percentage we'd like to be. What we are happy about is people have to play us in the pass, which really helps our running game.

Phil Forest

We're spending more time on our computers. Even though television viewing is up, there is still a percentage that they're losing. If they put programs on the Internet, they can capture more of the audience. That's one of the key factors driving the networks.

David Bradley

What they're doing is what we're trying to do, which is close the gap a bit. The percentage increase sounds daunting, but the dollar increase is not.

Rodney Bourne

We're doing everything we can to keep our costs as low as we can, but the largest percentage of our cost is the cost of purchasing the power that we deliver to our customers.

Sheri Miller

With the high percentage of Spanish speakers, we wanted these kids to have an artistic outlet, too.

Bob Romeo

We've averaging 61 points per game, but the thing that makes me the proudest about this team is its defense. We've held teams to an average of 31 points per game. A lot of players get to play (as a result of big leads), and that means the kids on the bench are doing a good job defensively as well.

Rick Spring

We've always set team goals. Making 100 points in a game isn't one of them, but if it happens it happens.

Bethany Irwin

We've always had the offense, it's just defensively we had to turn it up a little bit better. We held them to 16 points at halftime, which I was pretty pleased about.

Kevin Cato

We've always felt like our defense was one of the stronger points of our game. Our goal was to have a hand in their face for the full 94 feet of the floor and that would hopefully take away some of their shooting ability.

Nick Vitucci

When we were 12 points behind Wheeling, we never doubted ourselves and always believed we could do it.

David Hall

When it came down to it, I won the points that mattered,

Peter Larson

We're making some improvements as to where the decision points on the highways are going to be. We are getting rid of the weave actions that currently happen between the Chenengo River and Interchange 7. At Interchange 4 with Route 7. We're adding lanes where necessary to improve the capacity of the highway.

Ben Nelson

We're going to run like we're 10 points down,

Dave Garza

We're going to put some big points on the board.

When it came to entering mutual-fund orders, Bear Stearns essentially handed the keys to the system over to the hedge funds.

Hideo Kojima

When I was a child, there really weren't very many video games, but I do have memories of 'Pong.' Maybe it was 'Pong.' It was a home system in Japan, so maybe it wasn't the real 'Pong.' It was just sort of a Japanese game that was similar to 'Pong.'

John Clippinger

To move online security to the next level, there has to be fundamental resolve among consumers, government and business to quickly adopt a system where the individual has more control over how information about them is managed and shared. Our aim is to construct an open and widely accessible software framework that puts the individual at the centre of the identity management universe. With this framework in place, it will be easier for society to begin the migration to more secure online environments, where trusted networks can not only be easily formed, but effectively enforced. For in the end, security is not just technological, but social.

Chuck Mulloy

We're making changes to our roadmap for processors in 2001 in order to provide some additional memory options for the low-cost platform for Pentium 4-based systems for the mainstream market.

Nikolay Sevastiyanov

We're starting to design this new transportation system to support the International Space Station (ISS) once it's complete.

Sean Hill

We're starting to be within striking distance, we're starting to knock on the door. Guys are learning the way we have to play. They're learning it's not anything special. It's just hard work and playing our system well.

Kelly Green

We're sore, rusty, out of shape and out of sync. We're hoping they'll get that out of their system (today).

David Paulson

We're so impressed with the state we're using it as a model (for future disasters), ... It was something we've not seen in a long time. There was a unified system and the sharing of information.
