Dues Quotations
Dues Quotes from:
-
Certainly Quotes
If you've never been on anything before, they're not going to take a risk and give you a huge job 90 percent of the time. There are exceptions to that. I certainly wasn't an exception to that. I had to pay my dues big time, but I wish somebody would have explained, 'Look, your job is not to get work. Your job is to get better.'

Attention Quotes
What's so special about Danica Patrick is that she's a racer, not a novelty or pr gimmick, ... She was under tremendous pressure the entire month of May in Indianapolis and she came through with flying colors. She's paid her dues and now is getting the attention she deserves. Her growing popularity with race fans everywhere is a great boost for the league and we look forward to seeing her in August with Indy 500 winner Dan Wheldon and the rest of the stars of the Indy 500.

Chance Quotes
She made sure, No. 1, that we didn't discriminate. And she always said to me, 'You have to be successful. There are a lot of people who have paid their dues to put you in a situation to be successful. A lot of people got beaten, a lot of people got lynched . . . and if you get the chance to be successful, you can't squander it.' She always reminded me of that every day.

Gel Quotes
We sure paid our dues this year. It seemed like every time we thought that we got it, we had to back up, regroup, reshuffle and refocus. Last year we were able to gel in late February, but this team never really did. This was one of the hardest years I've ever been through. But, I'm most proud of their fight, vigor and tenacity.

Both Quotes
Jeff is a driver that I think has a great deal of potential and a very bright future. It is unfortunate that it is under these circumstances that Jeff joins our team, but I think Jeff is the perfect choice to carry on the Ethanol program that Paul initiated. Jeff has paid his dues and worked his way up through the ladder system. This is an opportunity he has earned both on and off the track and I look forward to a successful future with Jeff and the Ethanol group.
-
Command Quotes
Jeff has paid his dues to the company. I expect him to be good, I mean real good. He can be a guy who can do it all, there is no doubt in my mind. The Jeff Rowe I am expecting this season is going to be a difference-maker. He has to take command of this thing. If things aren't going right, he doesn't have to fix everything, he just has to put us in position to make things go right.
-
Accounting Quotes
It is disconcerting that no one associated with the Guild has yet been able to provide a detailed accounting or basis for these fees, despite the fact that they come directly from dues and fees paid by Guild members, who expect the Guild's leadership and management to be dedicated to furthering the members' health and welfare.
-
Bowls Quotes
We don't charge any dues for our club. We drew randomly to produce a koa bowl, calabash style, and we sell them in the education room here. That's how we make money for our normal expenses of functioning. There are 34 calabash bowls on sale strictly for club revenue and the rest of the show upstairs is strictly for personal enjoyment.
-
Came Quotes
When I first came to Congress, the party was supposed to help you. Now, when a new member is sworn in, he or she is told what their dues are - how much they are expected to raise for the party for the next election. It's worse in the Senate. It turns the whole place into a money machine.
-
Cannot Quotes
We paid the price in millions of dollars in fines, 10 times that for our members, and face impending loss of dues check off which is going to hemorrhage the finances of our union. But you cannot take on a fight like this and not get bloodied. We are still here standing before you bloodied but unbowed.
-
Allowing Quotes
This whole thing about paying your dues in skating and finally one day you're going to get rewarded for it, I don't believe in this. It doesn't matter who you are, or wherever you're from, you should have a fair chance. If a newcomer skates the best that night they should win. This system is veering toward that and it's allowing it to happen.
-
Ate Quotes
We had a good bullpen in New York last year when I was there, but I was the guy who went out there and ate up innings every seven or 10 days. I wasn't getting a chance to pitch. I was paying my dues and there are some guys on this team that are doing the same thing. I try to keep them positive.
-
Amount Quotes
Both of us had a desire to manage back then. Guys who have trained themselves properly, gone to the minor leagues and managed and paid their dues coaching for a considerable amount of time and have a great understanding of the game in all aspects. Getting interviewed as much as both of us had been, you always get that feeling that this is never going to happen. I applaud the Devil Rays for giving him an opportunity to go out there and do it. His background is comparable to anybody's. He had the interim job with the Angels a few times and did a fine job.
-
Artist Quotes
As an East Coast artist who paid his dues performing in the clubs of New York City, Redman's inspired rhymes bring the gritty realism of the city to life in our game. His bold lyrics and hard-edged funk beats capture the vibes of the city, from Washington Heights to Harlem and all the way down to Battery Park.
-
Bat Quotes
This is a senior-group of ballplayers, and they have put in their dues as far as getting themselves prepared and it's good to sit and watch them play. They play good defense, they're so competitive at the plate, and they all want to hit it every time, and sometimes you have to push them up there when they're not having a good at-bat but most of the time they put the bat on the ball.
-
Carry Quotes
There's a big mind-set difference. The mind-set comes from the way you work and the way you practice. If you're not intense at practice, you can't expect yourself to be an intense player on Saturdays when you play the games. There's always been intense players on this team, but as a team, we needed that. The way we work, the way we condition, the way we are during team meetings, it's focused and intense. And I know it's going to carry over to the football field. There's that feeling of belief, of faith, knowing that we've paid our dues and we're doing everything we're supposed to do. It's going to pay off.
-
Causes Quotes
It's just, you gotta pay your dues if you want to sing the blues. Not that I've never paid dues in my life, but I just paid a lot in the last couple of years. What can I say? It just gives your songs a whole lot more legitimacy. Or it causes you to write better songs or something, I don't know.
-
Ability Quotes
The value of these free supplier products was much greater than the modest dues asked for joining the association. The GNC Corporation has been steadily reducing franchise operators' ability to make a living. We simply want to offer some immediate bottom-line help to the franchise operators upon receipt of their membership dues. It is frustrating when GNC Corporation takes actions to directly hinder franchise operators' profitability.
-
Abuse Quotes
The corruption at the UN didn't begin with the Oil for Food scandal and it certainly doesn't end there. The United Nations is nothing more than bureaucracy piled atop waste, wrapped in fraud, covered with abuse -- all of it funded by American taxpayers who foot 22 percent of UN dues -- more than any other nation. We also pour billions of dollars more into the coffers of its related agencies.

Leaders And Leadership Quotes
America's working families have to be wondering why union leaders are spending member dues on a conference in Kansas City attacking a company where union members shop to save time and money. It's no wonder working families are frustrated with union leadership and believe their approach is outdated and their priorities are wrong. Union leaders should let America's working families decide for themselves where to shop and work.
