Comments Quotations

The standard way to record a meeting is to list people's names, the topics, and action items. The visual way is to doodle a rectangle (the table) populated by figures (the participants) sitting around the table with their comments as cartoon word balloons.

Over the years, I've become barraged by comments from people, such as, 'Beam me up, Scotty!' and I became defensive. I felt they were derisive and engendered an attitude. I am grateful for the success, but didn't want to be mocked.

You know, you have a lot of people - I've met a lot of people in the past, I've gone to private schools, you know, encountered different people who think that it's OK to make comments, insensitive comments about your race because they're joking. And think that if they're joking and they say it, you know, good-naturedly, that things will fly.

You can get stuck in the trap of reading your YouTube comments all the time. Sometimes I regret it. Not everyone is going to love you. And for some reason, stand-up has this thing where everyone thinks they can do it. So everyone thinks they're an expert.

Never make negative comments or spread rumors about anyone. It depreciates their reputation and yours.

Every time I hear someone making ignorant comments about the supposed 'evils' of homosexuality, I think about the true evil of the high suicide rates among gay and lesbian teens.

I tend to be very private. It's easier for me. When you're acting, you're very susceptible to comments that somebody makes, so if they know something is going to happen on the show, and they say something, it can actually throw you off. So I tend to not share things with anybody.

The statements of four witnesses of unquestioned integrity, traveling with me that day, attest that such comments were never made and confirm that it simply did not happen.

When I went to the Olympics, I had every intention of shaving the mustache off, but I realized I was getting so many comments about it - and everybody was talking about it - that I decided to keep it.

I'm involved with a baroque opera company here in Italy. I write some of their booklet material, comments on operas. I also write for some baroque opera festivals because this music is my real passion.

I regret any comments I have ever made which may have cast any doubt on the personal faith of our president, Mr. Obama.

I have done a pretty good job of partitioning my life digitally, posting utterances and stories that I'm happy to share with anyone on Twitter, leaving a few sparse comments and 'Likes' on Facebook (I'm not a huge user of the service, I'll be honest), and sending any number of photos to thousands of 'followers' on Instagram and Tumblr.

Some boys accepted me, some didn't. And my family had comments made to them. Brazil is still a very macho society, and sports are mainly for boys, so people would say to them: 'What is this girl doing? Why is she always out there in the soccer games with the boys?'

Improv changed my life in the best way. I gained so much confidence and really learned how to use my sense of humor to do something other than make sarcastic comments to the TV, though that remains one of my best skills. I stayed in Chicago for college mainly to continue doing improv, which was an awesome decision for me.

I think I have broken the mould that actresses have to be extremely thin on screen. All those who are making my weight an issue just prove that people are jealous. These are people who have nothing to do in life except to stare at their computer screens and make comments on us.

Vast volumes of mixed media surround us, from music to games and videos. Yet almost all of our online actions still begin and end with writing: text messages, status updates, typed search queries, comments and responses, screens packed with verbal exchanges and, underpinning it all, countless billions of words.

Our demand for good looks, expressed in the biting comments that ensue when public figures fall short of perfection, puts enormous pressures on these individuals and may screen out the otherwise qualified. If video killed the radio star, it may also be doing away with the homely politician.

As we began working toward the finale of 'Lost,' I knew there was no possible ending that was going to be universally loved, and I accepted that. We ended the story the way we wanted it to end, and we stand by it. On my Twitter feed, I still get ten to fifteen positive comments for every negative one.

I'm the one who made many of the bold comments that we'd seen the technologies from AMD as pretty good. Their technology in many areas was leading. But those are transient.

The most frequent complaint I hear from college students is that professors inject their leftist political comments into their courses even when they have nothing to do with the subject.

I value kindness in myself and others. I try to remain super-vigilant about my targets and make extra sure that my sometimes barbed comments are deserved and in response to genuine malefaction.

It's interesting when people make comments about celebrities' weight gain or lack of weight gain as if they're a medical professional that's treating that celebrity. Like, 'This doctor does not treat Jessica Simpson, but thinks her weight is unhealthy.' If you don't treat her, then how do you know?

I had racially prejudiced comments directed at me on different blogs. People think that just because you're in the spotlight, you're fair game. It's hard, and I don't think you're ready at any age for it. Thankfully, I have some great fans who got me through it.

Just as many people that love me, hate me, too. I get really mean, mean, mean, mean comments on Twitter, and it just comes with the territory.

Since I did the SK Project and I partner with the United Nations World Food Program, I got a lot of different feedback from people online. Through social networks and through the Twitter. I read the comments and see 'em saying, 'People hungry here, Fif.'

When I was a kid, there was teasing in school. Then when I was a teenager on 'Days of Our Lives,' I certainly experienced hurtful comments from 'fans' of the show.

When I first released music, and no one knew what I looked like, I would read comments like: 'I've never heard anything like this before; it's not in a genre.' And then my picture came out six months later: now she's an R&B singer.

In the days when I used to tweet, I would encounter comments wishing death upon me. There were people who claimed they were sticking pins in my effigy because they couldn't stand me. There's some seriously disturbed people out there.

You can get a million comments about how beautiful you look and how awesome you are, but the one comment that says they hate you and you're ugly is the one that sticks.

It's human nature that if you get 20 positive comments and one negative one, you're going to focus on the negative. We all do that. It can be something that drags you down. It's easy to get bogged down with it, but I try to concentrate on the good things.

We are maintaining our neutral opinion on PPC (No. 2 U.S. poultry producer Pilgrim's Pride Inc.) following the company's comments this morning that it no longer expects to meet its previously announced earnings expectations for either F2006 (ends Sept) or the F2Q. We are reducing our F2006 estimate to $1.20 from $2.20 and are also now estimating a fiscal 2Q loss of $0.30 per share, down from earnings of $0.30 per share.

We believe that it will take an additional 30 days to complete the necessary evaluation and collect comments and data from our membership.

We believe that both BellSouth and Qwest will move ahead with their own terrestrial video strategy in 2006. We believe that recent comments by the CEOs of BellSouth and Qwest support our view and suggest a more favorable outlook towards facilities-based video.

What we're seeing this morning is in response to OPEC's comments and also some old-fashioned year-end book squaring. Oil prices rose sharply and then fell. The market is doing some to-and-fro action, where traders saw the fluctuations and thought about pulling back instead of buying at the higher prices.

What we're likely to get is no move but all the comments suggesting that there will be a move next month.

We got whacked on the Fed comments (Wednesday), but that reaction doesn't make sense, ... Don't you think if the Fed is hinting that interest rates will go up sooner, that suggests the economy is doing well? I think the comments bode well for the GDP (gross domestic product) report tomorrow and next week's monthly employment report.

Unless he should say something really out of the ordinary, which is unlikely, I think his comments will likely have a limited effect on stocks,

We're issuing this in the wake of some comments by President Chen in Taiwan that we don't want to be inflammatory or send the wrong signal, so we thought it useful to reiterate US policy on the subject.

We're getting a lot of comments on the paddock, and they're all positive. People who get around the country tell us it's one of the best three paddocks in the country. It ought to be. A lot of work went into it and a lot of money.

We have no comments to make. We are waiting and watching the situation. As of now we are going it alone in the coming Assembly polls to the state.

We want to take all of your comments and look at how we can address them.

We want to set the record straight. At no time during yesterday's meeting between Ford and Bridgestone/Firestone, did any representative from Ford ask us to recall tires or replace any tires. They did not ask us to join with them on a recall or a replacement program. They told us they had made absolutely NO decision concerning our tires on their vehicles. Comments by Ford to the contrary are inaccurate.

We want to see what his line of reasoning was and if it's a valid argument, then perhaps the dollar sells off. If his comments are not as dovish as people might fear, the dollar might rally.

We're accustomed to the insights of government officials being authoritative. Greenspan's comments may be wise, but they aren't actionable anymore.

We're asking for each of the communities to review it and give us any feedback or comments that they might have. We've also been talking to each of the communities about what are some of the next steps. One of the first steps once the study is done is to establish a review committee.

We heard some comments (Wednesday), and a couple of their kids said they thought we were a little soft. We wanted to make sure they knew we weren't going to be as soft as they thought.

We heard a lot of comments from the sales reps after that event about how much the meeting meant to them. I think the day fostered a goodwill attitude, and it contributed to the focus of getting out there and succeeding despite any obstacles. A lot of the reps even became pen pals with the Special Olympics kids they spent the day with, and I think ultimately the children were the glue that bound the reps to each other.

We hear a lot of positive comments from business people about where things are going. We're nearly at full employment, the Canadian dollar is expected to remain strong, and we also saw the ball get rolling on the Georgia-Pacific waterfront project.

We hold the kingdom and Prince Saud in great esteem and we regret such comments as these,

We've seen the reports of comments attributed to other party officials.

The external forecast for year 2000 or for another year is in the 15 to 18 percent growth in units across the world. And that's fairly close to the historical growth rate. So, where as I hear many comments about the post-PC era, I see anything but that when I look at the numbers.

The CPI report was very tame. It sort of reflects the comments by Alan Greenspan that even though monetary policy is way too expansive right now, inflation is sufficiently a non-event, a non-problem, so the Fed obviously can wait at this point,

The outlook for the bond market is still negative. The European recovery is quite strong and we've had an accumulation of hawkish comments from the ECB.

We're looking now at a mix of different comments on basic texts. We've made a bit of progress but we have quite a lot more progress to make.

The Prime Minister's comments have been unhelpful. He has no more right to call for the Telstra directors to talk up the interests of the company than the Telstra board has a right to talk down the interests of the company. The directors must tell it as they see it. If they are subsequently found to be misleading the market, they will be held accountable.

Let's be honest: we all watch the show at home and play 'armchair' 'Survivor,' inserting our opinions, comments and yelling at the TV screen.

Many members' comments expressed concern about the continuing rise in oil and gas prices.

Share prices had been softer due mainly to a rise in the value of the yen against the dollar, which was caused by Fukui's comments but some investors chased bargains later, pushing the NIKKEI index above the key 16,000 level.

Senator Kerry's comments used for campaign fund-raising purposes are simply over the top, extremely inappropriate and factually incorrect.

Olson's comments reaffirmed our views on the Fed's stance for further interest-rate hikes. The Fed's focus is on inflation. The dollar remains strong.

Some of his comments suggested insubordination on my part. I have always written the articles assigned to me, adhered to the paper's sourcing and ethical guidelines and cooperated with editorial decisions, even those with which I disagreed.

Some of his comments really made me think that maybe (journalism) is the way to go. It is something that I'm passionate about, and I have fun doing.

Should Fukui go further than his previous comments on a policy shift, that will likely be a yen-buying factor.

She apologized for her comments personally to them, and they were all gracious enough to accept it.

Shakespeare led a life of allegory; his works are the comments on it.

Since Watanabe made comments that's when the reversal started and it seems to be breaking higher against the dollar.

Since the last meeting, you should have received from me comments on Chapter 7, which is the resources of community character.

Mizuno's comments seem to be a message to the bond market that it should not be surprised by a rate move anytime.

Momentum for the yen is good. Fukui's comments and this newspaper report fed speculation about a March policy move, increasing the chances of a rate hike by the end of the year.

Mr. Greenspan's comments support equity gains, ... And investors may have turned around their view of Intel.

Mr. Greenspan didn't say anything new but his comments were one of the reasons we saw this early spurt take the market up and wane in the afternoon. But when it's all said and done, what the market is really grasping for here is some really good earnings in technology stocks.

Moveon is not a one-way broadcast media. The Internet, when used best, is a two-way media. We have a forum in which people can post comments and those comments can be rated. We get a sense of what people feel most passionately about.

Mr. Benson did write a message Sunday night to the commissioner expressing his concern about the incident that occurred following the game. It was an emotional and distressing situation and very unfortunate for him and his family. His comments to the commissioner relayed his frustration and at this time he has not yet made a decision on his plans for this weekend's game.

Mr. Avery's comments showed a complete lack of respect for all those associated with our game, most importantly, his fellow players, ... Mr. Avery has besmirched the reputation of all NHL players, coaches, general managers and owners who, collectively, have been successful in providing a more entertaining game for our fans.

Mr. Aristide has resigned his office and has left the country. And now the Haitian people are involved with grasping democracy and moving forward on an interim government. And that's where the focus should be right now. And any comments that would stir up more division are not helpful, as the Haitian people move toward a greater democracy.

Of all the people that have tried the machines, we could count the negative comments on one hand.

No one said anything to my face, but I constantly heard comments denigrating Jews.

No one is sorrier than John for the embarrassment that these albeit private e-mails caused to his colleagues and to the people who were the subjects of those comments. John would be the first to say this has been a real lesson to him. John is abjectly sorry for all the comments that have come to light, and that's appropriate.

Maybe it's too late. After reading his comments ... he didn't sound all that remorseful about it. It sounded like he was more defending his position on why he hit me.

No, I don't think it's a problem at all. A lot of ballparks these days see home runs fly out of them. I don't think the ballpark will be a problem in luring players here. If anything, I've heard a lot of comments about what a beautiful ballpark it is.

Never before have I had a student that was so unhappy with my teaching, ... The overwhelming comments on my evaluations were 'this is the best course I've ever had.'

Obviously, they had different intentions out there than we did, and it showed. I don't think there were a whole lot of people over here on the blue side who were too happy about it. They had a few smart comments they made about how that's how they practice, but we're very capable of practicing that way, too. But we didn't get a chance to do that.

Obviously the market was well prepared for a change. Maybe the market is expecting some more calming comments from Fukui.

Right away that raises a red flag with me when you say you are limiting tree removal. I wasn't aware there would need to be any tree removal. Have any comments come back from the G.L.E.N. Committee?

Pfc. England was making comments about the size of their penises.

One of the main comments that I've heard regarding this issue is parents and educators saying that they are unwilling or discouraged from working together because of the nature of this legislation.

One of the reasons for the choppiness today is because of a fairly steady stream of comments coming out of the euro zone on the currency,

One of the comments that we've heard that has really blessed us is people have been driven back to the book of Revelation to prove us wrong only to find that what we said was there.

I was surprised by the comments made by Sean Davis. To be accused of deliberately going into a challenge in an attempt to cause damage is absolutely sickening.

I was sitting in a gym, and he started banging in threes. I saw him in the Augusta Peach Jam. A lot of people questioned why we recruited him. A lot of people told Tyler that he wouldn't be able to play here. A couple of other coaches when he committed made comments like 'Don't call us when you transfer because you won't play there.' I was confident that he was a good player.

I would have to say that is absolutely not true, and I would leave any other comments to counsel.

I would have liked to hear more comments on the local economy.

I wish I could coach 100 Willies. Coaching Willie has been a pleasure. I admit that I was a little nervous when he made those comments about being player of the year, but I love how he backed them up. He's been a joy.

I have heard recent comments by the union and players who say they expect a work stoppage of anywhere from a season to a season and a half or even longer,

I have empathy for these kids because I've been in their shoes. I heard all the comments at school, and I was the guy who was ignored on offense during the game, didn't get the ball as often as smaller players, and was criticized the most. We've drawn on that life experience to design a program that helps our big athletes be more confident, accountable and aware of their big bodies and the powers they hold within.

I have been very restrained in my comments about the House and the House leadership. But Speaker Craddick and I have a different point of view, ... I think the Legislature ought to reform our schools, not the courts.

I don't have an issue with any comments she has made to the media but players still have to understand that wildcards are not a right. They are a privilege.

I don't know what proof they have on any of it so I'm real leery about there being another story about it. There have been a lot of unfounded comments about him. There doesn't seem to be any evidence to support what they're saying.

I can feel so bad about myself, especially if I start to pay attention to the kinds of stupid comments around the Internet.

I am disappointed. I am angry. And frankly, I view her and her candidacy differently after reading reports of her comments and actions. I would be a hypocrite if I did not.
