David Cole

What they're really looking at is the long-term implications of this. In the past, there was a decidedly short-term mentality, and basically what (GM) would say is we'll settle so we can meet our quarterly profit projections. That's different today.

Robert Ecker

What makes this program not just historically relevant but also immensely entertaining are the personal reflections and pop culture content that will be key components of Back in the Day . Central to the concept and what really makes this stand out is the decidedly modern approach to the vintage footage. In filtering the storied past of the sport through the prism of the high-tech present, two key elements clearly emerge - Dale Jr.'s unabashed enthusiasm and respect for this era; and the sheer magnitude of the changes that have occurred over time.

Robert Sinche

Holly Lisle

Don't talk about writing. Write. Don't show unfinished work to anyone. Don't show finished work to non-writers. Get your opinions, not from friends and family, but by sending your work out to editors. An endless stream of rejection slips means you need to learn more. So learn more.

.We got to the point of identifying the value of the debt in 2003/2004, entered into four-way discussions - Ministry of Finance and Planning, Ministry of Justice, the university and the law school - to agree on the debt.

Jeff Shaffer

We started learning a new dive on platform before this competition and Steve had a little bit of a mental lapse in that he performed the new dive instead of what we had entered him to perform and thus automatically received no points on that dive. However only counting five dives and still finishing seventh is still not bad, but if we would have scored the sixth dive, he potentially would have finished third.

John Callahan

We're competing with everything: the beach, the mall, bookstores. Libraries are in a transition right now, caught between two forces, the old ways and technology. Libraries are under a lot of pressure to provide both.

Justine Bateman

When I was in my teens and 20s, I looked to older Italian and French women. They always seemed so incredibly attractive to me because of their confidence.

Sarah Shahi

When I was in my early 20s, I looked towards exterior things to make me feel sexy - guys, clothes, shoes, etc. Now it's all about how I feel internally.

Tawny Toering

The only complaint about Monday's move is that it was on fairly narrow breadth ... but that shouldn't take away from what's been an entirely impressive run by the TSE, both this month and this year,

Kevin McKeown

We're in a fiscal crisis if you look at it with long-term eyes. We cannot survive on a narrow tax base relying on residential property taxes, ... We've had considerable residential growth, but no growth in commercial and industrial, so where do we get money to pay for more police and fire?

Ernie Els

Where it used to be kind of the most fun of all the majors, it's becoming the hardest one now. Over four days of competition, it's going to narrow the field dramatically. You will be doing good to break par on the back nine.

Krista Tippett

Mystery is a birthright of theology and faith, but you often do find religious people grasping for answers that shut things down and narrow what is possible.

Dick Cheney

Our adversaries - our Democratic adversaries - like to be able to portray the Republican Party as a bunch of wingnuts - narrow based, always have some agenda that's not attractive to the public... That's easier for them, and more fun, than dealing with their own problems. And I think their problems are significant.

Clare Short

We remain concerned that refugees in Macedonia are being forced onto planes and buses. This is unacceptable. We understand Macedonian concerns and will provide support to Macedonia, provided it complies with international rights and norms in its treatment of refugees.

What Hollywood has done is push the responsibility for funding movies onto the creative people who make them.

We're going to help him. And you can't forget we've got Duce Staley back, too. We're going to click, but that's Donovan for you. I mean, Donovan can step onto the Bad News Bears and produce a winner.

Jacob Young

Working for Disney for the last eight and a half years, people come and go - production staff and actors. I stepped onto the sound stage and it was a literal time warp.

Harvey Leeds

With the Internet and the ability to download onto portable devices, what reps are able to do marketing-wise to expose music is completely unlimited by the imagination. You can use anything to turn people on to music.

Gene Luen Yang

With my own comics, I try hard to get the vision in my head onto paper, to have one match the other as closely as possible. With the 'Airbender' comics, I'm working with someone else's vision, an already-established vision. I want to stay true to what's come before.

Bob Krabbe

We're getting literally hundreds of calls about passengers frustrated with flight delays and taking it out on the flight attendants. We've asked the attendants to document each situation and forward onto our safety and health committee to investigate.

Mathematics is purely hypothetical: it produces nothing but conditional propositions.

Theresa Adams

When we were letting the starters sit on the bench, to see what was going on on the floor ... that's just how the other part of the team feels when they're on the bench, wanting to get in. And after they saw all of that, they came alive to realize that they (would) rather be on the floor than on the bench.

Kevin Marino

We remain hopeful that when the attorney general's office has completed its review of the charges against him, it will elect to dismiss this case rather than seek an indictment.

Sheriff Norman

We're so fortunate that we can now conduct an investigation into how this thing got going rather than have to explain to the victims' family members why something like this could have happened. I don't know what we would have done if something like this had really happened.

Mark Foley

We're going to spend the next 30 days at least focused on relief restoration rather than business as usual.

What we're looking for is not money, but rather their expertise. Their advice, their input into assisting teachers in the classroom to make their instruction more relevant for the students.

Roger Oberg

When we'd have arguments over who has the best basic process for development, nobody wins. Rather than controlling the basic process framework, we (at IBM) can leverage what the open-source community does. And other software vendors can do the same around our processes.

Dave Peterson

When we have had a chance to get outside we do it. We are starting to get a few breaks. It hasn't set us back, but it's harder on the legs. We'd rather be outside.

Matt Harpring

We were supposed to stay with our man, but luckily he (Howard) shot the ball after the shot clock. We'd rather be lucky than not, (but) that was a letdown. We made some mistakes down the stretch, but the biggest thing is we got a win.

Yale Hirsch

We've always had periods when something came in vogue, ... This is different because of the Internet. It keeps on going and the riches just keep astounding everybody. All the traders that come up today naturally gravitate toward Internet stocks.

Jonathan Maberry

When I was in middle school, the librarian there was secretary for a couple of groups of professional writers.

What all the ads and all the whoreoscopes seemed to imply was that if only you were narcissistic enough, if only you took proper care of your smells, your hair, your boobs, your eyelashes, your armpits, your crotch, your stars, your scars, and your choice of Scotch in bars--you would meet a beautiful, powerful, potent, and rich man who would satisfy every longing, fill every hole, make your heart skip a beat (or stand still), make you misty, and fly you to the moon (preferably on gossamer wings), where you would live totally satisfied forever.

Jeff Chirico

We felt it had a character, it had a great story to tell, it had interesting people and it had a rich culture that we thought would make for a great program.

What's nice about my dating life is that I don't have to leave my house. All I have to do is read the paper: I'm marrying Richard Gere, dating Daniel Day-Lewis, parading around with John F. Kennedy, Jr., and even Robert De Niro was in there for a day.

Yale Hirsch

We've always had periods when something came in vogue, ... This is different because of the Internet. It keeps on going and the riches just keep astounding everybody. All the traders that come up today naturally gravitate toward Internet stocks.

Kathie Hiers

Unfortunately most budget cuts are directed at low-income people. We're overburdened, and I don't know what's going to happen. It's sad that the richest country in the world will not prioritize health care in America.

Aiden Wilson Tozer

The moment the Spirit has quickened us to life in regeneration our whole being senses its kinship to God and leaps up in joyous recognition. That is the heavenly birth without which we cannot see the Kingdom of God. It is, however, not an end but an inception, for now begins the glorious pursuit, the heart's happy exploration of the infinite riches of the Godhead.

Aiden Wilson Tozer

I am Thy servant to do Thy will, and that will is sweeter to me than position or riches or fame, and I choose it above all things on Earth or in Heaven.

Chanakya

He who loses his money is forsaken by his friends, his wife, his servants and his relations; yet when he regains his riches those who have forsaken him come back to him. Hence wealth is certainly the best of relations.

The person who has lived the most is not the one who has lived the longest, but the one with the richest experiences

Joseph Franklin Rutherford

The perfect man in Eden therefore was rich, and such riches he might have possessed forever had he continued obedient to his Creator.

Nicolas Roeg

'Eureka' was very bad timing. The early 1980s: Reagan and Thatcher were in, greed was good, and here was a film about the richest man in the world who still couldn't be happy. Politically and sociologically, it was out of step.

Cedric Redmond

When we were going into the locker room at halftime, we heard some fans saying that we're going to fall apart in the second half. We wanted to make sure that didn't happen.

John Travolta

When I was a kid in the 60s, believe it or not, most of you are younger and don't know that, but it was a blast to fly! You dressed up, you got in your Sunday best, women wore white gloves, you had room to stretch your legs out, you had a very nice meal, the stewardess paid particular attention to you. It was an event. It's so different today.

Steve-O

When I was a kid, I loved a heavy metal band called Motley Crue. I was thirteen when they came to my city, and I called every hotel in the Yellow Pages asking for a room by the name of their manager in hopes of meeting the band. After two or three hours of calling hotels, I got through, and the manager's brother answered the phone.

Donna Wing

You don't know who you will see from one room to the next. You may have someone come in and interrupt and take things off-track. There's the element of surprise: You know you will be seeing ghosts, but you don't know in what context you will see them.

Dwane Casey

We're more in an attack mode, which creates rebounding lanes and a little bit more space where his man has to help. He can get it, catch it and has a little more room to operate.

Wayne Coyne

We remixed them in 5.1, which doesn't sound like much, but let me tell you it's really a crazy, complicated thing to take these things that you did almost 15 years ago and revisit 'em in this format that only became available a couple years ago. A lot of bands can't do that because they don't have their own recordings. But we've always recorded ourselves, so it's a matter of me just going to the back room and grabbing the tapes and sort of putting them back on the reel. It's a weird treat.

Ken Hitchcock

We're starting to gain an identity and a lot of confidence. The game (Sunday) against Ottawa has really moved our game up a notch... You can hear things on the bench, the bantering between players, which is excellent. You can hear the locker room has a lot more life. Our team is starting to gel.

Ken Hitchcock

We're starting to gain an identity and a lot of confidence, ... The game (Sunday) against Ottawa has really moved our game up a notch... You can hear things on the bench, the bantering between players, which is excellent. You can hear the locker room has a lot more life. Our team is starting to gel.

Dan Hawkins

We're so much about that. What I've tried to do a little bit, and part of this is for my own good because I'm very much like that, is to be able to walk away from the locker room after the game and go, 'All right. We won!'

Joe Johnston

We're sort of putting a slightly different spin on Steve Rogers. He's a guy that wants to serve his country, but he's not a flag-waver. We're reinterpreting, sort of, what the comic book version of Steve Rogers was.

Cyril Beuzit

We're slightly positive on the bond market for now. A rate move is priced in for June but people have given up on the idea of getting anything earlier.

Larry Peruzzi

We're slightly lower to unchanged basically for the second day in a row after a little bit of a rally. That 11,000 continues to be a key resistance area.

Michael Conway

Whenever rates go up a little bit, some people aren't going to qualify. But buyers are better off because of the balanced market. That helps them more than slightly higher rates hurt them.

Bertrand Russel

What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.

Gary Hines

What a great day for golf, we had a slight breeze and tough enough hole locations to challenge most everybody that teed it up today,

Mario Pescante

What happens now, I haven't the slightest idea,

Jonathan Eunice

Web-services technology is complicated stuff. You've got all sorts of standards governing security , reliability, and message bundling, and there are 30 or 40 major specifications and standards involved as well as a couple hundred slightly more minor ones. In a considerable number of cases, you will have to learn many of these dialects and it's a bewildering array to learn indeed.

Paul Muller

With New York doing what it is doing and technology stocks strong, people in Tokyo have got slightly more interested in the stock market.

Johnathan Frakes

When I was just acting on the show, I learned my lines, went to sleep, then woke up and went to work. Now it's sort of become an obsession. I like the success. I'm thrilled with the way things have gone-but my life was simpler 10 years ago.

Dan Rooney

We're so thrilled to bring (a championship) back to Pittsburgh.

J. Hoover

What this country needs is a great poem. John Brown's Body was a step in the right direction. I've read it once, and I'm reading it again. But it's too long to do what I mean. You can't thrill people in 300 pages.

David Dowd

When we got the call yesterday to be available and to be in the position to perform the ceremony, it was a great thrill and a lot of fun,

Ed Clark

What a great thrill it will be for fans of all generations to see these NASCAR superheroes together again at Atlanta Motor Speedway. With 405 victories between them, each and every one played an integral role in making NASCAR the tremendous success it is today.

Ben Howland

What a great feeling. To still be playing. To beat an outstanding team in Memphis. We're thrilled to be heading to Indiana.

Gary Chase

We wrestled great tonight. It meant a lot to the kids. It's been a strange year with the dual tournament. It's been a challenge keeping the kids focused. Weston is a really good team. They wrestled hard. I'm thrilled that we wrestled as well as we did.

Catherine Marquette

United is thrilled to be able to come out to Payne Elementary to kick off the start of our fourth season of United Reads. I think our players and staff look forward to these visits as much as the kids do. We all are avid readers, and to be able to spread that message along with providing new books to the kids is a blessing we embrace.

Bee Wilson

Years ago, during a John Grisham phase, I tried to pinpoint exactly why I found Grisham's often predictable legal thrillers quite so comforting. The best answer I could come up with was the frequency with which Grisham tells us that his lead characters are sipping coffee. When it comes to food and drink, predictability can console.

Jim Calhoun

We've always treasured it and we still treasure it. If, after the game, we say it wasn't that important to us, we're lying to you. It's important to us. Is it the most important thing? No. But we'd like to be Big East champs.

Doug Hall

We're going to treasure every evening, have a good time, and go out on a high note.

Boris Gryzlov

William Shakespeare

The purest treasure mortal times can afford is a spotless reputation.

Akhenaton

A contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.

Aiden Wilson Tozer

Whoever seeks God as a means toward desired ends will not find God. The mighty God, the maker of heaven and earth, will not be one of many treasures, not even the chief of all treasures. He will be all in all or He will be nothing. God will not be used.

Aiden Wilson Tozer

The man who has God for his treasure has all things in one.

Charlotte Bunch

You Can't Kill the Spirit resonates with the voices and power of women around the globe who have refused to be either passive or violent but instead act firmly and imaginatively to oppose oppression in its many guises. A wonderful tonic for activists and a treasure for those who teach, these stories bring women's history to life.

Evan Lysacek

We've always had great depth in our men. Certainly we have it this year. And what I think is so wonderful about the top four is that each one has a completely different style.

Ernie Harwell

Tom told me this wonderful story about how Ernie and his wife invited Tom and his wife over in Florida one time for a dish of ice cream. Who in this day invites you over for a dish of ice cream. Just wonderful.

Tom Beckett

Tom's a wonderful person and outstanding role model. We value what he's done (but) we felt it was the right time to begin new leadership.

Carolyn Anderson

We're sort of the soundtrack to these wonderful, wonderful images, ... The subject is the universe, but we interpret that loosely.

Martin Bates

We're so excited to have him. The wonderful part about the Granite School District Police Department is their priorities, and only priorities . . . are the safety of kids and patrons in the district.

Dennis Speigel

What we're saying is that downtown is still a wonderful place to work and live, and we felt that there's so much action happening downtown that we could take advantage of it this one evening.

Dannel Malloy

Whenever people say, 'You should be president,' I say, 'I thought you liked me.' Listen, I thought being mayor of Stamford was a wonderful job. Being governor of a state for a period of time is a wonderful job, and I'm not sure I'm at all attracted to Washington.

Michael Price

When we heard about the Bay Street production and how wonderful it was, we knew audiences would love this musical and that it would be perfect for our first touring venture across the country.

What a lovely honor it is to have Spirit Airlines dedicate a new plane to our islands. We are most appreciative and wish Spirit Airlines wonderful success.
