Pace Quotations | Page 4

For the second week in a row we just were on a torrid pace to self-destruct in the first quarter.

For most governors, we find the United States Senate or the United States Congress very frustrating at the slow pace in which they act. There doesn't seem to be a lot of discipline and organization to what they do.

Globally, banks sector earnings have not kept pace with the market in recent quarters, while the oils sector relative performance has lagged behind the price of crude.

If it starts to cascade from one country to another, it will reduce the efficiency of the global economy and slow down the pace of activity.

I got a hard run, and that's what I wanted. I just didn't have the pace to stay with them.

If we see economic indicators continue to weaken at the pace they have weakened in the past month, then I'm wrong. We could not only see mortgage rates continue to soften, but hold at lower levels for quite a substantial period -- maybe the first half of next year. But I don't think that's likely to happen.

If we see a slowing there, it could pull the entire economy down a bit. I don't think it will pull us into a recession, but the pace of growth could slow considerably.

If we run again this year, we will run in the Breeders' Cup Classic. We had intentions of either giving him time off or run in the Classic. We will look at the pace scenario before deciding on the classic. We'll see how Lava Man does and whether or not he goes on to the Breeders' Cup. If Lava Man does not go, we will probably go to the Classic.

If we are right that both the pace of economic activity and corporate earnings are still fraught with near-term, downside risk, equity values and risk spreads will carry a recession uncertainty premium for some time -- a premium that the Fed will still want to counter.

He's had a tremendous camp. His pace is unbelievable and his recovery is tremendous. There's no doubt in my eyes that you're going to see a Rookie of the Year come the end of the season. There's no one running by him and he just needs to get better in his positioning. Mark my words, he's going to be Rookie of the Year come the end of the season.

He's got to pitch with a little bit more mound presence. He's got to pick his pace up a little bit and allow himself to get into a rhythm and work faster.

He was a robotic quarterback a year ago. He's been able to pace himself over the course of the year by understanding the length of the season. All these things are why you're seeing the difference from this year to last year.

He was climbing a little early, but Victor said he then leveled off nice. There just wasn't any pace in the race.

He was very good. He's a guy we monitor every day and watch very closely because he's taken steps as we've gone along. As the pace of the game rises, we hope he will rise with it. Tonight was a good example of him playing a very good game on both sides of the puck. He made a lot of smart plays.

He did an awesome job today. The race started out at a slow pace but he kicked it in during the last 800 meters. He just did a tremendous job today. We're so proud of his progress and competitiveness throughout the season.

He has the technique, pace and youth to be a very good player. We've got to make sure we harness that ability.

He had an 80-yard run called back. He was probably on pace to run for 400 yards in that game.

He got better and better as the week went, and was close the other day. He just didn't have the lateral movement and the pace that he needs.

He draws defenders. He's got to learn to dish it off more, but with that pace he's a bit of firepower we didn't have last year.

He (Diepenbrock) talked about how important the pace of game would be. We had to bring the shot clock down and control things. We set the tempo pretty well.

Having had a couple of weeks at home now, we've tried to play with some good tempo (in our play), to really put some good pace on the game. You've got to back your skills, and I think it has always been a Brumbies trait to play at a good tempo.

He looks comfortable over putts and to me, he doesn't take as long to putt as he does full shots. His routine is consistent. He's got a simple-looking stroke, with nice pace and flow, a blend of mechanics and pace. But I always think guys who putt well are more fearless. They don't worry about the three-putt or the bad putt. They don't take that with them.

He looked pretty awesome today. He sat off that pace and I really liked how he was extending. Victor tells me this horse is better than we thought.

He made a great pass on ( Scott Walker 's) goal (last Sunday). That's what experience brings. He sees the game at a little slower pace than some of the young guys.

Whatever the color of Germany's new government will ultimately be, the pace of structural reforms is likely to be slow.

There is going to be expectations and big-girl responsibilities that she can pass on right now because she's not officially representing a company; she's not an ambassador for the sport as a professional. That becomes a different deal when it becomes a business. I think the pace is just a little too accelerated.

We talked about this all week. We've played at this pace a few times. But they are a very good defensive team. Not too many teams hold Joe (Kalb) to five points and one field goal.

We've been trying to pick up the pace and start playing a little faster so we put something in place this week that's allowed me to pull the trigger a little faster. This was just kind of a trial week to see what would happen, and obviously it was a great result.

We're proud of the job our schools have done in keeping pace with technology and preparing students for success in a technology-dominated world. This contest reflects our high school students' achievements, and recognizes the talents they have developed.

We're on a record-setting pace for second-quarter warnings.

We've got to rebound. We also have to play the game at the pace we want to.

We've got to keep performing. The batsmen played well on a docile pitch, but this one looks fresher and looks to have a bit more pace in it so we'll have to be on our mettle.

To continue this pace ... well, that's going to be hard to do. But he's got the mechanics to be a good hitter and things are going well for him.

Having them out there kind of sets the pace for the rest of the team. Their energy kind of spreads out, and other kids feed off it.

He's a change of pace pitcher out of the bullpen.

Her level of consistency is unmatched. We look for Jennifer to continue to set the pace for the team as she transitions into the leadership position that comes with being an upperclassman.

Golf at its measured pace permits an electric excess of mental activity.

He's a real mobile, very poised with the puck and defends well. For a 20-year-old, he's got a man's body and he skates so well and moves laterally. It's just a matter of getting used to the pace of the game. We hope over time that he develops a bit more of an offensive edge to his game, but right now we don't put a lot of pressure on him to do that. He's going to play, it's just a question of how good he'll be. Is he going to be an All-Star or not?

He's got good speed, but it might be a good race for him to sit off the pace a tiny bit.

He seems to be doing all right. We're hoping by (today) he'll be able to do some light workouts and get some shooting in. It looks like he'll be on pace to do that. We'll be able to go pretty solid on Wednesday and Thursday with him.

He seems like he's on go for it. I just hope there's enough pace up front to help us.

His pace does make a difference. There is plenty of time but the concern is that this injury has been around for a while and there has been no real improvement.

Hopefully there will be some pace in the race and he can just run them down in the lane.

The pace will quicken now. The parliamentary process hasn't ended, but by any reckoning last night was decisive. After today, there will be a gear change in terms of how everybody sees this: government, the private sector, everybody.

The pace we're on, sure, anything could happen.

The pace was such in the first half that we assumed we were going to struggle in the second half. We tried to take care of that through substitutions, but it's hard to do in soccer because then you begin compromising the rhythm of the game. We could see that. We could see that our pace and our work rate in the first half was so high. We were not only frustrating the opponents, I thought we were also being very stubborn in the middle of the field.

The pace was pretty high. At that point, I didn't know if I was going to make it back on, and if I did make it back on, I didn't know if I was going to have the legs. It was kind of one of those things where you wondered if you're doing it for no reason, but as soon as I got back, I knew we had a chance.

The pace was incredible. Do you turn off the tempo? You just have to let the kids go. They got in that zone.

The pace of this growth will slow down, but probably not until we approach 2008.

The pace of this film is rather slow, I wanted to express the characters' inner world more than just tell what is happening in an objective environment.

The pace of the game flowing down has everything to do with you being comfortable. My first two years here, we were playing musical receivers, rotating guys in and out of the lineup, guys getting hurt. It was a tough couple years as far as trying to build any sort of comfortable relationship with any of the players out there.

The pace of the game changed everything for us. We were way more aggressive this time and Drew got us going. We surprised them a little at the start, coming out on them with pressure.

The pace of the car was down. We had to open up the car for cooling and we lost a lot of performance.

The pace of technology innovation is accelerating. The investment demonstrates the company's long-term commitments and builds on the foundation we created during the last ten years.

We will grow our local operations, boost venture capital investment and work closely with the government, industry and educators to increase the impact of the country's Information and Communication Technology.

The pace of sales has started to show signs of softness as foot traffic at sales offices, unit reservations and the number of contracts are slowing. Experience, location and branding will be the key to success for specific projects.

The pace of demand growth in China is something we are all watching, because it will have a greater effect on crude oil demand-supply balance at some stage.

The pace is especially important in this, when it isn't so much a whodunit. We had to find a way to structurally keep shifting the focus, where you think you know something but you see that you don't.

The pace he was keeping up in the spring was pretty intense. It's probably not realistic to expect that level of attention to be paid forever, when you've got Supreme Court justices and lots of other things on the plate.

We made some adjustments in the second quarter to slow the pace a little bit. We tightened up defensively and tried to limit them to one shot.

He was going along at a fairly good pace and making great strides. Then he suffered the concussion and really struggled after that.

He was such a game horse. To be a part of that pace in this year's Kentucky Derby, to come nine-wide into the stretch, and to be only narrowly beaten tells you all you need to know about this horse's ability and heart. He was so consistent. We will miss him around the barn.

He can run from off the pace if we need to do that, but maybe letting him be a free-running horse is his best style. We're certainly not going to try to take him off the pace. The most likely scenario is he's going to be on the lead, but if somebody else wants the lead then that's fine, too.

He (Christopher) was very consistent. He did not have much pace on the ball so I had trouble early. I was glad to pull it out. Trust me, I'm tired right now, especially when it is that close and could have gone either way. We both played tough, and that's what it's all about.

He certainly has the pace and is professional in the way he approaches his racing.

He is playing the game at a faster pace now. He gets the ball off quicker, he can check out of plays quicker and he's going through his reads quicker and getting it to the right guy.

Greenspan will note the economy's robust growth pace in a low inflation environment, ... the downside risks of the international weakness . . . most recently Brazil.

Kim is a real force coming into the game as a change of pace player. We've got a lot of players who can come off the bench with energy.

Kids have a mindset - and a lot of people have a mindset - that you have to have a starting five, and they're supposed to play as much as they can. What we had to understand was if we wanted the starters to finish strong, we had to have that other group play. We had to keep up the pace and tempo to keep the defense continually strong. We had to wear down our opponents.

I wouldn't say I'm surprised by Cliff's development, but I am a little surprised by the pace of it. He's an extremely competitive guy. He's made a ton of adjustments since last season, but I don't think anyone could have anticipated (that he'd get this good, this fast).

Just too slow. It took us 5 hours to play. ... Around the greens it just took forever to play. Toward the end, it took its toll. I had a partner that wasn't very fast, either. ... I have a pace and I play to my pace. I don't know what the officials are doing. We had 20, 25 minutes behind time, they are just not stepping up and saying, 'Hey, you are slow. Hurry up.

Kane and Pogue picked up the pace and really turned it around. That's the game for us. We're workhorses, not thoroughbreds. When the work gets tough at the end of the match, that's when our conditioning and preparation show through.

Johansson is a player we've admired for some time. He's experienced, he's got good pace and he's always capable of scoring goals.
