Businesses Quotes
The smaller shopping centers, the leases were too long and way too expensive and pretty much ironclad. The mall offered a short-term six-month lease, and were very willing to work with new businesses to help us get up and get going. That was really a determining factor for locating here. Plus, there's more exposure and longer hours.

Adoption Quotes
The simple logical substitution of running Linux on less expensive hardware does not play out on the client. Businesses don't look at the client and say they want to make a 100 percent crossover from client to client, unless I can do something to improve the workflow and lower the cost of execution and the cost of ownership. Some of the simple models that drove server adoption will not drive client adoption.

Although Quotes
The template for success in the NBA changed from the Portland model of 1999-2000, when I got to the league, to the Detroit, San Antonio, Miami model. Although we have succeeded on the court to the point of five straight 50-plus win seasons, we certainly didn't do it 'the best way.' We did it the most expensive way. It cost us flexibility and created lots of bad habits. That was my mistake, and it ended up costing us Mike (Finley).

Accept Quotes
The thing I've learned most about poverty is how expensive it is to be poor. It's super easy to pay rent every month if you earn enough to pay rent and have a decent job. It's super hard to pay rent if you need a coupon from the state and then need to go find an apartment that will accept that coupon and only that coupon.

Ads Quotes
Television ads are very expensive - and it's been the opinion of folks working with me, and my opinion, that the kind of campaign that I've been running has been one where I've been more in touch with the voters themselves. And putting money into those types of efforts rather than TV ads seems to make sense at this point.

Appreciate Quotes
Saving money is part of it, but employers are telling me that having employees pay part of their insurance helps them understand how expensive coverage is, and how much of it the company is paying. Knowing that cost helps employees appreciate the fact that the company is paying for a portion or most of the insurance.
-
Asset Quotes
Saying that stocks are cheap relative to an asset class that itself is really expensive -- that's a fragile comfort. To me the risk profile of the market in some ways is even higher than back in 1999. Back then people were buying because there was tremendous enthusiasm for stocks. Now they're buying them because they're turned off by the alternatives.

Areas Quotes
Rather than using financial incentives to encourage seriously ill hospital patients to reduce plan spending, directing them to high-quality delivery centers will be far more effective in making them better consumers and controlling plan costs. In some areas of the country, using high-quality care centers may cut plan expenditures for the most expensive cases in half.

Action Quotes
Prince of Egypt' is an enormous gamble for DreamWorks, ... It's a very expensive film. The question is: can they be all things to all people? Can they sell it as an action movie to young men, and a family movie to families, and a religious movie to what they're calling the faith community?

Adequate Quotes
The month-to-month gas price hike was driven primarily by increasing oil prices and speculation over adequate production. Higher gasoline and oil inventories have eased these concerns. However, when gas stations begin to sell the more expensive summer blend fuel in March, prices may start to increase again.

Amount Quotes
During my early years, ... we tried to do everything in the least expensive way possible our public improvements, grading. There was even an aversion to charging developers any amount of money (for public facilities). If we can't do it ourselves, we said, we shouldn't charge the developers.

Action Quotes
Despite the food industry's rhetoric, this bill is a sweeping rollback of decades of state action to protect consumers. It would reduce food safety protections to the lowest common denominator and make states jump through expensive bureaucratic hoops to enact future food safety protections.

Achieve Quotes
A new air conditioning or heat pump system can be expensive and homeowners are sometimes tempted to save money by just replacing the outdoor unit, but that is going to waste their money down the road. Homeowners will not achieve peak efficiency and comfort from their cooling system unless it is properly matched and installed. Improperly installed systems may function, but not at peak performance, and could prematurely fail.
-
Average Quotes
As all carriers more aggressively promote subscription-based models, they are also testing price inelasticity by gradually inching up average pricing. To grow the market, carriers must work in tandem with publishers to provide real value for a more expensive subscription, rather than treating it as just another pricing tactic.

Attractive Quotes
Bank loans have pretty attractive interest rates these days. Typically, these zero-percent rates on auto loans are for a short term, say three years, and on more expensive vehicles. People end up buying the car, but use a bank loan to do so. Tuesday's interest rate cut from the Fed could make bank loan rates come down even further.
-
Begin Quotes
This is a sad day for NASA. ... But also one of renewed hope for the future of NASA's manned space flight program. The end of the Shuttle Program means that we will begin a new program that will be bigger better and more expensive than anything we have undertaken before. I'm proud of the people that have kept the shuttle going, but the Shuttle Program is done. Its time for the shuttle, like an old dog, to lie on the porch and let the younger dogs chase the rabbits.

Anecdotal Quotes
This is not an enormously expensive process. But there is a great deal of anecdotal information that racial profiling does exist in Virginia. If the report indicates that it doesn't, then that's terrific, and it clears the air. If the report shows that racial profiling does exist, then it gives you the basis for designing a program to eliminate it.
