Agree Quotes
We agree that every single foot of the I-walls is suspect. When asked, we have constantly urged anyone returning to New Orleans to exercise caution, because the system now in place could fail in a Category 2 storm. It has already failed during a fast-moving Category 3 storm that missed New Orleans by 30 miles.
-
Board Quotes
We are doing a systematic review of the editorial history of both papers and our procedures for evaluating them, to search for ways in which we might improve those. I have pointed out in the past that even unusually rigorous peer review of the kind we undertook in this case may fail to detect cases of well-constructed fraud. To support this effort, we are calling on outside experts, including members of our Board of Reviewing Editors and our Senior Editorial Board.

Burn Quotes
When you see the coals, your first reaction is to think 'my God, that's going to burn me', ... If someone can teach you how to put that out of your mind, how can that fail to make you a better footballer? You may not be able to walk afterwards, which is a risk, but it's one we're willing to take. You have to stop thinking about your family or anything else that is going on outside the game. You can get better at it and the more experience you get the easier it becomes.

Committed Quotes
Wal-Mart is committed to making a positive contribution to working families and we do it every day. We're disappointed that some continue to ignore the facts and fail to provide any real vision for the future. It's not surprising that organized labor is under such scrutiny when they have so little to say.
-
Felt Quotes
We let a good hockey player go to Atlanta, ... But I just felt it was time for change. We had two runs at the Stanley Cup, one was partially successful, last season we failed. There's a reason when you fail and those reasons have to be looked and tried to be rectified and this is what we're trying to do.
-
Approval Quotes
When political leaders fail to denounce anti-Semitic violence and slurs, the void is not only demoralizing to the victims, but silence actually enables the wrongdoing. Silence by elected officials in particular conveys approval - or at least acquiescence - and can contribute to a climate of fear and a sense of vulnerability.
-
Batteries Quotes
We would like to have students and other engineers exercise and operate the spacecraft after the biology has been completed for at least some of that time. Of course, if a critical system were to fail or wear out, like the batteries or communications radio, then that's it since we do not have a lot of redundancy in the design.
-
Based Quotes
This whole medal count is, in my opinion, not really in the spirit of the Olympic Games. It just kind of has evolved that way and countries seem to derive some kind of satisfaction or disappointment based on the medal count. I have no control over that. It's a big risk to go and put yourself out there, in front of the world, to either fail or succeed.
-
Adaptation Quotes
To the casual observer, one of the most striking things about President Bush's State of the Union address was his wholesale adaptation of the Democratic Party's rhetoric regarding energy. Veterans on all sides of the energy debate in Washington cannot fail to detect a strong whiff of political cynicism in the air.

Available Quotes
We've been raising rates in this country since about June of last year, so we've had over a year's worth of rate increases starting to flow into the market. That has slowly, but surely, drained liquidity out of the overall financial system in America. So money supply growth has been below nominal GDP growth now for a number of months. So what's happening is slowly, but surely, there's just not enough money out there available to make everything go up all at the same time. So that's why rallies fail sooner than you expect, and why you know people get punished more for bad news than they get rewarded for good news,
-
Breach Quotes
We need to restore the public's faith in our state pension systems and send a message that those responsible with investing public dollars have to be held to the highest ethical standards, ... When they fail to do that, as we've seen in recent weeks, they undermine the system and breach the public trust.
-
Bloom Quotes
The grass always looks greener on the other side. Do we ever stop to think why? Maybe it's because we neglect our own grass...sometimes we stop watering it and it dries out, sometimes we let some weeds grow instead of pulling them out and sometimes we fail to recognize that new seeds need to be planted where the grass has become bare. In order for something to stay in bloom you have to nurture it, no matter what side of the fence you're on.

Becomes Quotes
Those urging the United States to rein in its spending should be equally full-throated in prodding countries with excess savings and trade surpluses to create conditions for growing their domestic demand. If they fail to do so, and the U.S. suddenly becomes virtuous on its own, the global economy would sink into a deep funk.
-
Agreed Quotes
We cannot but welcome this effort of the Secretary General. It is something the President of the Republic himself has repeatedly requested from the Secretary General. Our effort is to avoid a hasty new process of negotiations,which would fail in no time, because that would be a catastrophe for Cyprus. That is why we are insisting on properly preparing the ground, creating the necessary conditions so that when a new process begins there would truly be realistic prospects to lead this process to an agreed solution and this is what we expect the UN Secretary General to do.

Above Quotes
What! as for him then against whom the sentence of chastisement is due: What! can you save him who is in the fire? / But (as for) those who are careful of (their duty to) their Lord, they shall have high places, above them higher places, built (for them), beneath which flow rivers; (this is) the promise of Allah: Allah will not fail in (His) promise.
-
Atlantic Quotes
Bell Atlantic has not even come close to meeting performance levels required by the Telecom Act, ... Our brand is damaged each and every time they fail to provide our customers with service or features in a timely manner. We also suffer direct financial harm from lost revenues and costly re-works.

Adds Quotes
As stressful as the holidays are, they can be even more so for those who have recently experienced the death of a loved one. Many people fail to realize they don't have to do things exactly as they have in the past. They can make changes to make the holiday season easier. Failing to consider changes often adds to the stress level and makes dealing with the situation even harder.
-
Children Quotes
The treatment received by Native American students in Winner and throughout the region is completely different than that of their white counterparts. These experiences demonstrate the reasons why Native American children so often fail to reach graduation -- hostility of peers, discrimination of school officials and knee-jerk police involvement.

Becomes Quotes
Seeing fathers-in-law, all those kinsmen, and other dear ones standing in the ranks of the two armies, / Arjuna was overcome with great compassion and sorrowfully said: O Krishna, seeing my kinsmen standing with a desire to fight, / My limbs fail and my mouth becomes dry. My body quivers and my hairs stand on end.

Best Quotes
People can speculate that for sure, and why not? ... I haven't played in the NHL and only played (24) games in junior so there are going to people who speculate. There will always be people who doubt me and want to see me fail and every time I step on the ice it is my job to prove people wrong. In the cases where they like the way I play it is to prove them right. I just want to go out there every game and do my best and let people form their opinions.

Biggest Quotes
You see that he has all the raw tools, and he does everything exceptionally well. The biggest thing is he has to learn he has major league talent and major league tools, but he has to learn to continue to develop mentally. You have to learn to deal with failure. He's gone through the minor leagues quickly, and you kind of want a guy to fail a little bit. I learned more out of that year (in 2003) dealing with failure than I did in any other year when I was doing well.
