Smaller Quotations | Page 9

This indicates that there's not a lot of U.S. content in many of these Japanese-brand engines, and that many of them will be assembled in a new U.S. facility, and not genuinely manufactured. Assembly would of course generate much smaller benefits for the local and U.S. economies.

This has been a great opportunity and I was very fortunate that I had a quite a few offers in a short time. This seemed like the best opportunity. Because you have a smaller staff (than in Division I), you get to do a little more.

They're treated like celebrities. It's a smaller town than L.A., and they're treated like NFL players there. They're very recognized. People are always asking for their autographs when they're out, so they're really appreciated.

They're supposed to stay under 150 per grade. I believe they're between 300 and 400 this year. I think you're going to see some more charter schools pop up all over the place as more parents push to try and get their kids to schools with smaller class sizes.

They're still very much concerned that the risk in the economy of a downturn is much greater than it is of inflation. I suspect they will restate that risk.

They tend to be more stable than smaller companies, yet have stronger growth rates than larger firms. You get the best of both worlds.

They put in a catheter and it went up to the aorta of my heart. The best way I can explain it, you have a nose in your heart that makes the pulse go. There's a little circuit that goes around. Well I had an even smaller circuit and it would make the pulse go really fast. So all they did was burn that little circuit.

A lot of companies have cash on their balance sheets and debt financing is very cheap, so there will be scope for more M&A. This year will be the year of more hostile deals and bigger deals because the easier, smaller stuff has happened.

A lot of our fires are in steep, narrow canyons, and that is not a safe place to put a big airplane like that. Because of our topography, it will probably not be used as much in California. We need something smaller and more nimble.

A lot of guys I know are into this whole scarf trend. Not my thing. I prefer to update and personalize my style with the smaller things, like a pocket square or, again, with the shoes. All in the details.

Although there is no plan to shutter a number of churches, there could be some changes down the road. If we have two smaller groups struggling, we can bring them together. Can they share a building; could they share a priest?

Although little should be made of one month's data, the smaller pace of import decline in November is consistent with other recent data that suggest that U.S. economic activity may be stabilizing.

A lot of smaller businesses are going to get washed out. The market is going to get tighter going forward.

A lot of times bigger players have to bang inside, they have to do the dirty work, they have to screen, they have to defend in the post, they have to post up. If a smaller guys doesn't mind doing that and actually enjoys doing that, he can play that position and that's what we have.

A lot of the starter homes are on the smaller end, a little bit older.

A lot of tour operators told us that they didn't think the show would work in their town, not the bigger cities, but the smaller places. They even suggested that we rewrite and tone down the sex. So when we were offered the chance to come to Vegas, we looked at the numbers and the opportunity. (Wynn) wanted to build a brand-new theater for us, for our show. Steve Wynn is a visionary -- it's God's little joke, I guess.

They frustrated us from the opening. They came here to defend. On this smaller field, it was crowded out there.

They have a lot of big bullets, we have more smaller mid-sized shots at scoring points. It's going to take a collective effort to have the kind of success we are hoping to have at this tournament.

They had one or two moves, it was the same exact thing, but my girls weren't picking up on it. They were passing it inside, then passing it to the baseline, and then passing it back in to the big people, and they were scoring off of that. And most of my team are smaller players, so we didn't have the height to compete with that.

They encountered no denial of access, ... The Serb police presence is much smaller in the countryside than on Sunday, and the Serb police are generally departing the countryside.

They are a very up-tempo team. They like to press. They are a little bit smaller than the teams we usually play, so they have to spread it out on the perimeter and shoot the 3 and get up and down the court.

They are a tough team to play, and they are even tougher to play in a smaller pool like ours. It should be a really good game. Also, it is our last home game of the year, and it is senior day. Even if the weather is not that great, we are hoping for a big crowd to give us that extra edge.

They are smaller shelters in great need of many things. We are taking things that they specifically requested that they need at this moment.

There will also be some people who concentrate their attention on the rituals of worship and the offerings being made, such as the breaking of coconuts, the waving of lamps and incense, and the devotion expressed through these rituals.

This legislation would act as a disincentive for insurers to innovate and create new insurance programs. In addition this bill could hurt small carriers in the market. There are over 200 insurers that write property and casualty insurance in Colorado and the vast majority of them are smaller companies. These restrictions to use only Colorado data could make it difficult for them to price their product competitively in our state.

They're paying to milk the controversy. Will they draw criticism? Absolutely. But for a company like Nike that can afford to take a risk or a smaller company looking to make a splash, it may be worth it.

They're giving the cover corners an even smaller window than they had before. Now the guys who play hard at the corner get flagged all the time. What players like Hayes and Lewis did so well, steering a receiver with their body, is one of the arts that is now lost. The great cover corner is absolutely rare and special.

There's a relatively small pool of people with in-depth commodity trading experience, and there's an even smaller number of people who have had any exposure to managing third-party money.

As with the factory, so with the office: in an assembly line, the smaller the piece of work assigned to any single individual, the less skill it requires, and the less likely the possibility that doing it well will lead to doing something more interesting and better paid.

About a year ago I had what I consider a very religious experience. I took LSD, a full dose of LSD, and later, another time, I took a smaller dose. And I learned a lot of things, like patience, understanding. I can't teach you or tell you what I learned from taking it, but I consider it a very religious experience.

Absolutely, they are a hazard. People in smaller boats really need to keep a look out for submerged or partially submerged vessels.

A BBB/Javelin study found that identity theft victims who discovered the crime through electronic means averaged a smaller monetary loss than those who found the theft on their paper statements.

A big man who's athletic will eventually wear down a smaller man but if you have a big man that can't stay on his feet, can't get to the ball, who is always on the ground, then you have problems. You can't play with guys like that. There's a fine line between the good players.

It's an interesting concept. I don't see it as a threat at all. The plus side is that it will reach people who can't come to the theater. In the end, it will mean new exposure for this smaller product.

It's an interesting avenue. It's just a smaller niche than other things banks are doing.

For many of these smaller contractors, their biggest challenge is the time it takes to turn around a professional estimate to quickly close the deal on jobs they want.

For any film -- whether Iranian or not -- a podium like Berlin obviously is beautiful. Because it helps art exist.

So it's a question to tell the world that the film exists.

The number of people around the world that are really qualified to substitute for American workers is much smaller than people believe.
