A lot of people believe who spends the most money wins. I don't believe that. It's how you spend the money.

American industry spends a lot of time on cost accounting, and they do so because it gives them so much more control. But the health system rewards inefficiency.

When the one saying it is as big a gorilla as Medicare, you say, 'I'll take it.'

This is the setup for 1966, 1967, 1968. If Congress goes ahead and spends another $200 billion and doesn't pay for it, it's just what LBJ did.

There's a need to do this as a means of increasing citizen participation in our budget process. Obviously, what the township spends and what we're taking in are issues that are near and dear to all of us since we all pay taxes and no one wants to pay more taxes. And we all want to find the most economic way to function in the township while providing a high level of service.

It was funny, during the making of this movie I was really sad because you're not getting anything back and you're giving so much to so many other people. I feel like that's the way Claire was.

It really seems to infuriate a lot of Americans. They give the rich people that live on (bond) coupon clipping in resorts all over the world a full pass. But when some autoworker spends weeks or months on a system making that much money, it drives people crazy.

It's not so different from the person who plays golf three or four times a week. He probably spends as much money as we do over the course of a year. I really don't think we're any different from anybody else; we just have different interests.

For many kids, the only thing they know about money is how to spend it. That's not surprising considering that the American family spends an estimated $1.22 for every $1 it earns.

It's not anything that you could ever prepare yourself for. And for someone who spends a lot of time talking, it really is the first thing that really renders you speechless because you just don't know how to express in words what it would mean to be part of this fraternity. And I still haven't figured out how to say it. All I can do is just look around bug-eyed at all the people that are here.

The average human being spends three years of life going to the toilet, though the average human being with no physical toilet to go to probably does his or her best to spend less.

The Air Force spends a significant amount of money testing equipment, and operational costs go up each year with the aging of equipment. Our job is to keep those costs down and the planes flying.

Any time you knock out a team that spends $200 million and you're the underdog, it feels great. We're pumped up for the next series.

The ISO is going to the CEO saying there's a chance something bad, and possibly something embarrassing, could happen. But how much of a chance, the ISO doesn't know. And if he spends this kind of money, he can reduce the risk but by how much, he doesn't know. It's simply not enough data. Every other C-level executive does better than that and takes on the responsibility for defining the risk. Here, the CISO is putting the responsibility on the CEO. They don't want it, and eventually they won't take it.

The federal government spends about $2.51 per child per day to feed them lunch. Out of that, you have to pay for labor, facilities, and administrative costs, leaving about a dollar for food. Imagine trying to feed yourself a nutritious meal every day with only a dollar. Very difficult.

I'm very pleased with (the opening) considering what's going on in the world. I believe that certainly part of our potential audience was lost to war coverage.

But, hopefully, we'll recapture that group sometime during the week or maybe next weekend.

He's one of the most respected pitching coaches in the game. He's got two World Series rings to show for that. I think he's got a tremendous work ethic.

If he spends $10 million, and that's not unlikely, and let's say he gets 100,000 votes, that's $100 per vote.

I don't see anything wrong with spending a lot of money to make big action movies to entertain people. Yet somehow, I come under special scrutiny. I mean, why don't people get upset if Dow spends $300 million to invent some new chemical? Audiences like popcorn movies. What's wrong with that?

He's not doing anything in the secondary except running through it. We hope he spends a lot of time down in the secondary, but on the other side.
