European Quotations | Page 4

We've got to look at this result as a one-off. Maybe other people don't see it like that. They'll say we're back to square one, but it's about what we believe we can achieve. We've got to start off the European Championship qualifiers with confidence and good results behind us - the way we sort of finished this group.

With merger speculation failing to die out and strengthening metals prices, European markets are set for another strong start.

We told our European partners that their policy towards Belarus is groundless and useless.

When interest rates increase, they have a capital loss. During a time of ECB rate increases, Japanese investors don't want to buy European bonds.

Today indeed marks the start of a new phase in the relationship between European Union and Serbia and Montenegro,

Today, I am very pleased to announce our leadership team and to provide more information on our plans to service European markets and clients.

Today, as a result, over 3 million jobs in the UK are linked, directly and indirectly, to the export of goods and services to the European Union.

What would happen to me if I stayed at Madrid? How much would I miss European football if I signed for Newcastle?

What worries me ... (is) that they will penalize European growth through hasty increases in interest rates without any justification.

What will come out of today's summit will be the united resolve of European countries and all the NATO countries that (Yugoslav President Slobodan) Milosevic is going to be defeated,

What we have decided today, conscious of the poverty that we face, is a decision of 100 percent debt cancellation for the poorest countries backed up by greater trade justice, by a doubling of European aid, by a commitment to provide AIDS treatments for people by 2010,

Here in the European Union, we need to learn from the American experience, because if we don't, we may end up reliving it.

Gold-hoarding goes against the American grain; it fits in better with European pessimism than with America's traditional optimism.

He's got the formula right. He's entering the market at the right time in terms of European liberalization and during a strong economy and he's entering with the right concept.

Historically, the pull towards the center in European politics has been incredibly powerful. From Italy to Germany, it has been almost impossible for non-centrist forces to obtain real influence.

He's been a real positive guy. Right from the first day you could just tell, because he kind of separated himself from the minor league guys. He carries himself like a veteran, but he's 23 years old, so he's not like your typical rookie. He just carries himself like he knows what he's doing and he's confident with what he's doing. Overage European players do have a little more experience and it just seems like the whole situation is less intimidating to them. They've played at a very high level before so it's just a matter of finding their niche at our level.

We look forward to seeing his continued growth as a player. Darko was able to play a lot of minutes during summer league this July, and we are happy that he is on Serbia-Montenegro's roster during the European Championships this September.

Hundreds of CIA-chartered flights have passed through numerous European countries.

He was found to be uncultured when he was caught not knowing anything about European history, opera, art and so on,

He comes with European ideas on curbing demand and believing in Kyoto,

He just won't admit that the only solution in Iraq is internationalizing the effort. The more we involve groups like the United Nations, European Union and Arab League, the more we take the burden off of American troops.

Keeping suspects in police detention for three months would be radically out of step with our European and Commonwealth partners. Where other countries hold suspects for long periods there are safeguards in the form of an independent judge who decides if there is a case to answer.

I talked today to the secretary-general of the United Nations. I talked to every European leader about this issue,

I think it is important that our rides are really spectacular. These are big European rides. We've worked really hard at getting thrill rides.

I think I set myself on a course to become a scientist around about the time that Carl Sagan's 'Cosmos' series was on television, and there really was no going back for me at that point, and then I went on to study space science and then get my Ph.D., then go aboard and work in the European Space Agency.

It appears that the European Union and other Basel Committee member countries are on course to launch the new approach in 2008, while the United States will implement at least one year later.

I think it's going to go further. The story's been the same for some time with the euro - the currency appears to ignore the good European economic news and latch on to the bad European news.

I think it's fair to say there is a quite a bit of European money flowing in ... there is a view that some of this is oil money as well.

I think it's highly significant that he is showing here. Although it sounds unpatriotic to say this, when a European big name appears here, and he is arguably the greatest designer of our time, it makes us seem like we are big league players and not some small colony. Karl Lagerfeld will be the hottest ticket in town.

It hurts right now; it stings. I'm in shock. There are a lot of emotions going through my head. But if you're talking long term, yeah, maybe the rest of the world will see there are other teams out there that can win and Sweden and Finland are those teams right now. Maybe that'll give hope to some other European teams to put more money into their programs and make this sport really global.

It is a highly pathogenic and aggressive virus and we in the European Union have to deal with that.

I think the place of Christian values in the world will in many ways depend on the character of Orthodox-Catholic relations, at least on the European continent.

I think the focus in the U.S. is on economic data coming out -- things like U.S. import prices. You find a weak dollar will translate into higher import prices. In corporate news, Cisco's numbers could have a positive impact, it was helping some of the European tech stocks early ... but European bourses have pulled back a bit.

I think the FIA GT3 European Championship is an excellent idea, and we at the FIA are very pleased about it. It fills a gap in the market and it provides the possibility of very good and very entertaining racing for competitors and drivers who might otherwise be left out in the ever more professional top end of GT racing. So we are delighted.

I think the Fed still has no other choice but still to raise rates. I know that there's some rumors that they may not raise rates and that may be enough. There are several elements that go into this. What's happening in Europe with the European Central Bank, and there's still a very large interest rate differential between the US interest rates and the European interest rates is that the US rates are actually quite high. So the European rates have to come a bit higher. Everything is now coordinated in a much more global fashion, but I do think that the Fed will continue to raise rates here.

I think (the European investments are) something they need to do, but we haven't seen the benefits from their investment yet. I've seen better progress at other firms.

I think the European finance ministers had an opportunity on Monday to scare off bullish euro investors by threatening intervention or rate cuts to undo euro strength. They missed that opportunity.

It is going to change, quite dramatically, the way European markets work.

It is good to evoke what happened, and to conjure up what might, happen again. Those who come together today meet as allies within the European Union and the Atlantic Alliance. Wars are always lost and everyone loses them.

It is clear now the European governments do not have a common position on what to do when they are haunted by political Islam.

Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, the European Union has opened its door to Turkey,

It is possible that European countries can bring this under control,

I think we have the team to go very far at the European championships. Now we just have to be ready on time.

I think we should form a European influenza task force that brings together all our knowledge, so that if you have outbreaks in the future you could form delegations to work together with local experts in the area where it occurs.

It has been difficult to show effects of stress on the development of hypertension because it may be that only a subset of people who show a genetic susceptibility will develop high blood pressure after chronic exposure to stress. Our research shows that effects of different candidate genes on the development of high blood pressure during adolescence depend on the environmental stressors that are present, the gender and the ethnicity, in a group of European American and African American youth that have been followed for 15 years.

I think we can beat them. I know that the Czechs decidedly have the most pressure on them ahead of these games. They have some class players who went to the European championships in Portugal, but many are out now.

It isn't true that there is an offer from Chelsea. There isn't even an offer from any other European team.

It is nothing like a traditional supermarket. Our stores are designed to resemble a European open-air market.

It is likely that the European partners and also others will work towards a second decision, and I also think that is sensible,

It is highly unlikely that European governments, or at least their intelligence services, were unaware.

It is important that we speak with one voice on this issue in the European Union, uphold our common values but also make an effort toward de-escalation.

It is not acceptable that certain member states indulge in underhand competition to attract international investment and entice European companies to relocate their headquarters.

It is important for the world to understand that the European Union and China are able to solve the problem in a constructive, positive way.

It is just a modest acquisition. It is part of our overall European strategy.

Like Open-Silicon, which has most of its customers within a five-mile radius of its headquarters, many technology start-ups are servicing American and European markets.

Latin America is not a key issue for European earnings in aggregate.

I went to live on a kibbutz, and I'd idealized the world of collective, agrarian work, where everyone was equal, everyone contributed, that all this awful European intellectual stuff just fell away.

I think they have some very difficult challenges over the next three years. The silver lining is if they continue to reduce costs and strive for flexible manufacturing, they can see a return to profits even without the sales levels of 2000. But the Asian brands and European brands aren't sitting still either.

I think the U.K. would be perfectly successful as a standalone country, part of the European marketplace like Norway and Switzerland but without the expensive E.U. bureaucracy.

It is an excellent deal for us because Pedro gives us more options in midfield and brings with him experience in European competition.

I think there was some minor selling pressure on telecom stocks as the market continued to see a weaker European telecom sector due to the high cost of Germany's third-generation mobile-phone licenses.

I think there are still quite a number of people who want to study in the United States. But I believe it is not as popular as it used to be because there are now a lot more choices, like European countries.

Javier has a proven track record of success, and I am confident that he will be a strong leader for Europe during this critical period. Under his leadership, Latin America has achieved significant growth. As head of the European Customer Group, he was instrumental in driving Europe's adoption of MasterCard's customer-focused strategy, which has set us apart from the competition and provided a platform to demonstrate our ability to deliver truly pan-European, globally competitive payment systems.

Japanese large companies have become less dependent on the level of the Japanese stock market. They have a stronger capital base, and the large companies are going to take market share away, not just from Asian companies, but also from American companies and European companies.

Jazz is really 20th-century fusion music. You take West African harmony and rhythm, mix with European harmony, and boom!

Jews are not part of a European ruling class imposed on helpless natives, but are caught up in a tragedy in which two peoples are struggling for the same piece of land.

Kochi, formerly called Cochin, is a former European settlement with a large Christian population and a seafaring heritage. It is a town of enormous charm that reminds some visitors of the Caribbean more than India.

Last season I counted four fingers at them for the number of European Cups Liverpool had won. Next time, I can just stick my whole hand up.

I think Europe has got to face up with America to the fact that protectionist policies are not only damaging the world economy, but damaging in the long run the European and American economies,

I think European integration - and this is a must for me - must not be counteracted by nationalist, protectionist measures.

I think European integration -- and this is a must for me -- must not be counteracted by nationalist, protectionist measures.

I support the Celtic football team, which was in the semi-final for the European cup, and it was the first time they've been in for many years. I went to the game the night before in Glasgow with all my crazy Glaswegian friends who screamed at the top of their lungs the whole night, and I had to sit there and clap to protect my voice because I was singing for Andrew Lloyd Webber the next day in London.

I said two years ago that the European fighters and the Africans would take control because I hate to say it their amateur system is better than our American system. They're benefiting from that good foundation, and then they're spending more time staying and training over here and getting used to a variety of styles that they don't see in Europe. They're also developing sort of a gangster mentality, whereas before their mental makeup was a little more delicate.

Ironically, if only because over the years I've known so many - from college deans to studio executives to European expats - who come to Los Angeles aspiring to nothing other than living in Topanga, I wound up there by accident.

I represent a generation that knows about life in the West and the rest of the world, people who want to do everything possible so that we become a normal European country.

Open access has destabilized the European railroad environment,

People already have a more positive view of the European economy, so they are not that fussed. The market is a bit tired after all the dollar selling this week.

Our imports increase as long as the economy grows. But there's certainly a concern that our exports are down despite the fact that Asian and European economies have begun to rebound. Maintaining the high deficit is dangerous because that means a huge debt, and if our creditors lose confidence in the U.S. economy and begin selling dollars, which drives down the value of the currency, that could spark a serious inflation threat.

Over the past 10 years I've learned a lot about myself and my golf game and without question the European tour has made a huge contribution to my improvement and success as a golfer.

Over the last month, HFTP President Ralph Miller and I have entertained numerous requests for HFTP to create a strong European presence with our conferences and other educational opportunities. In order to explore these possibilities thoroughly, we are strengthening our relationships with some of our European friends, IH&RA. We are also using this opportunity to get our brand more widely recognized by major European players in the industry.

Pakistan wants concrete legislation by the European Union countries including Denmark with backup laws to control unlimited freedom of press which allows anyone to disrespect others.

Over the course of the year, the European markets have outperformed the U.S. I think that part of that is that the big heavyweights that drag the European indexes forward have a much more international orientation, so as global growth has begun to accelerate, I think that companies with a global footprint have been able to enjoy the benefit of that.

Overseas Chinese control, by my estimate, $2 trillion of liquid assets that can be mobilized instantly to punt on anything from European football games to Shanghai property. This source of money is both the boon and the bane of China's economic development.

Our protocols already meet or exceed the current European standards and regulations. We commend the European Commission on their forward thinking and proactive approach. This is exactly what the industry needs to secure a stricter set of worldwide guidelines.

Our steady course is towards European integration. It is time Europe finally saw and valued Georgia and took steps towards us.

Our Supreme Court seems enamored with citing foreign sources of law what happens in the European Union today is going to become the law and policy of America tomorrow.

Our goal is a peaceful settlement and that's why we're working so hard with the European Union, with the Security Council, to achieve this.

Our country's policy offers the European airlines an open sky as well as a strong potential of growth because the additional tourists we want to lure here will be their passengers.

Overall though, we don't see them as being any worse than numbers from elsewhere, in fact they are probably better than European numbers. Japan tends to have the best numbers and we would say that the US tends to be pretty good as well.

Overall, these data are in line with the view that the European economy is gathering steam.

Overall, the reporting season has been pretty good with a number of companies coming in ahead of expectations. European markets are being driven by the fact there's a lot of cash around at the moment.

Overall, the figures look OK, but if you dig down deeper you see that European sales performance has been very weak, and that all the growth is coming from emerging markets.

Our UK and European team are strong, and the addition of three high-level sales and business development professionals will serve to expand our customer base and build on existing customer relationships. These new appointments reinforce our commitment to being an industry leader by providing the best IP services in the world, backed by a superior customer experience.

Other suitors may appear for one or both companies. However, European power is changing rapidly and neither company can ignore the implications.

Road testing the effects of regulation on European business must become second nature to the European Union.

Retail investors here as well as some European investors appeared to buy banks actively.

Results have been much better. The market seems to be recovering. We're optimistic for the long run for European stocks.

required an immediate response from the European Union.

Regarding the visa-free regime, it has undoubtedly become a problem for the European Union, above all in terms of its capacity to reach agreements.
