Five Quotations | Page 9

We've got five hours to be friends, Chipper, maybe four.

We've won four conference titles in the last five years, so we've always had that target on our back. We know we have to show up and play the best we can each week. We just hope our best is better than everybody else's, and if that's the case we'll be successful.

We've won five in a row, but if we start playing a little bit harder and a little bit smarter, we can be a good basketball team. We're not playing quite up to what I believe our capabilities are, but we're in a tournament and you got to win to advance. The big thing is that we got the win tonight.

We've undertaken lots of storm surge computer simulation during the last five years, and we've proven the effect of (restored islands and marshes) in retarding storm waves and surges,

We've tried to duplicate the problem but haven't been able to. We haven't had problems with the systems in the five elections we've used it, but we're concerned about what caused this.

We have scheduled this every year for about five years. It is a routine thing now.

We have to have all five players on the court and be aware of where she is. She can get shots in a variety of ways, and everybody has to be aware of her presence. The biggest thing we need to do against her is get to her before she has the basketball. If you prevent her from getting the basketball you can get under her skin and limit her production.

We have to handle the ball a little sharper, defensively. You look at the breakdown: The first five runs they scored were all unearned.

We have to get some shots to go in. We haven't shot 40 percent yet in five league games. That's pretty difficult to weather.

We have to get a quality start out of Tabor. Our bullpen has worked hard and we need to get five or six innings out of him and only give up two or three runs.

We have to get a better flow. We average 75 points per game, and we haven't had that for a while. Without Vaughn, we're missing 17 points, five assists, four steals.

We have a solid staff and we have five guys that have experience and know how to pitch. It's going to be a fun year. We've still got to go out and play the games, but we have the potential. We'll see how it plays out.

We have a solid five and some good competition for those sixth and seventh spots.

We have nine venues that are active for us and the way it seems to work is that the Open comes to St Andrews about every five years and to each of the others about every 10.

We have nine games more, we have to try to win five or six. We don't have any pressure right now and we're enjoying ourselves.

We have neighbors from South America, the Middle East, India and four or five different Asian countries. It's really a great melting pot, and all the kids play with each other.

We have music tonight but there are four or five people here. I don't know how much longer we can do this.

We have much better depth than we've had in recent years. We return five players who have started and have added several quality freshmen who have given us a boost. We have a lot of options.

What the Rams did to him was wrong. It isn't that they traded him. But they put the word out that he was a bad guy in an attempt to justify the trade. But it took people in Pittsburgh about five minutes to realize it was untrue. But Jerome was miserable over what happened in St. Louis, until he had a chance to get out there and prove the Rams wrong.

Whenever the ball hit the floor, all you saw were five white shirts boxing out.

When you score five points in a quarter, even when they score only 10, it's hard to deal with. The guys lost some confidence.

We want him to pitch every five days.

We want him to keep starting. If he goes 80 pitches and five or six innings, it's fair to say he's now an option for us.

We wanted to work on certain things with Devin. We concentrated on his pacing, and he was just five seconds off his target time. Devin was very pleased. He was only two seconds off his personal record from last year. He ran very well.

I’m sick of girls who don’t know how to high-five,

We were bailing out water until 1 a.m. and pumping out the basement. I can't figure out why everyone else pays city taxes but mine are four or five times higher because I have to spend $4,000 every four years to fix my house. I thought taxes fixed problems like these.

We want them to have fun. We have our section leaders hold at least five sectional rehearsals during the summer and we encourage two of those to be totally social such as going bowling or swimming together. This should be a very fun time of their lives and we want to them to enjoy this time.

We want to target kids in grades five through eight. It could fit very nicely into the media studies curriculum.

We want to take bull riding into the mainstream and be recognized as one of the top sports in the world. If I'd said that five years ago, everyone would've laughed at me, but we've got a five year plan and the growth potential, and I believe we can be a major-league sport.

We want to set a standard rate. And five out of the six departments were in favor of this.

Everything that a guy says once, you have to say five times.

We were in a little bit of a tight spot late. Austin had fouled out, Sam had four fouls and with 1:50 to go, AJ fouled out. Fortunately, Rickey made a nice play for us and I had to have Stephan, who hasn't played at all for us, come in and inbound the ball. We were up by five when AJ went out and every time it looked like we had them buried, they'd hit a big shot.

We were in a dogfight the lead was never more than four or five points. But everyone contributed and it was a fun game to be a part of.

We were hoping we could get that one over in five innings. We're still looking for that No. 2 pitcher. We didn't have the same intensity and focus we had last night (at St. Al). That was a big win last night, and it seemed like we left some of our intensity in Vicksburg.

We were hoping to try for a top five in the points and now we're trying to hold on for a top 10,

We were hoping to get the team right after this tournament. We were hoping some guys would play good and we'd say OK this is our five guys.

We'll be averaging about five degrees higher than normal.

We are also thrilled to promote Rolando Blackman, one of the all-time Maverick and NBA greats, who brings five years of coaching experience on the player development side, ... Ro also shares in our vision but more than anything he is very loyal. He wants to help bring a championship to Dallas.

We are all very well and looking forward to it. We had a really excellent four or five days of intensive training and a few practice games at our holding camp in Lucerne in Switzerland. We just can't wait to get to the venue and get on the ice.

We are all very excited, (with) five Kiwis on board we have had an enjoyable race to date and we're looking forward to getting back down into some familiar waters now.

The regular season is a marathon. It's a long season, and there's no way you can play that hard for that many games a year. The playoffs are more of a sprint when you have to give that extra 20, 25 percent that you might not give when you are playing the fourth game in five nights during the season.

The refereeing, right now, is getting out of hand. We have five games or four games and we have three red cards, it is unacceptable, ... The handball in the 89th minute was pretty obvious, everyone is fighting for their lives, fighting for the playoffs and we cannot lose games because someone had a different view of the game

If their IQ's where five points lower they'd be geraniums.

Good quote it takes five positive statements to overcome one statement

Ninety-five per cent of my time is virtually wasted.

Taking Five and Returning Four is not Giving

We also sponsor four or five softball teams which helps us during the summer months.

For every role you get, there are five roles that you don't.

This was as minimal an amount as I could do to make us compete at very high levels. This is the best five years in this school's athletic history, not just in the wins by the football team but certainly in academics.

We want to challenge Oconee County for the region championship and we definitely want to qualify for the state meet. Our goal at state is to finish in the top five for either the girls or boys.

We want that run, too, but we want him to shut down the opposition today, and in five days and in 10 days. That's the way I look at it. He's fun to watch. He can put the bat on the ball. He's got energy. He's a good asset. He's an athlete out there.

We did not lose, but this will probably be our worst Super Bowl in five years.

We did not know they were in the river until we started checking and found them five years ago. The gizzards had been established in Morgan for nearly four years before anyone started to look for them elsewhere. No one looked for them before that time. Navajo reservation biologists are in charge of the reservoir. It was so far from us we had no idea what was going on.

We did not commit a single error in the game. When you can go five innings in high school baseball without committing an error, you improve your chances of winning.

We did much better this time around than we did last year, thats for sure, ... I think we scored five points - in the two matches combined - last year.

We did great and I'm really proud of the way the guys wrestled. Five of our wrestlers made it to the finals, three took away titles and eight placed. We're three time defending champions but never have we won by this sizable a margin. It's difficult for us up there because we're not part of the North coast section.

We did get a little bit of respect from the selection committee as far as the five seed, but we played ourselves into that respect. We played a great season.

We did everything we could, ... You're in a pennant race. ... We're trying to win. Five runs in two innings -- you can't go with that.

We did everything in our repertoire to pull this one out. It's one of those things: use five defenses and four different offenses and hope something works.

Five is the very awkwardest of all posible numbers to sit down to table.

Biological knowledge is doubling every five years.

What we're doing now is finishing up the final design work like surveying and mapping. We might put it out to bid in a month or five weeks. Hopefully we'll be in summer when work starts.

What we really need is to get back some of the optimism we had five years ago (in the Middle East peace process) and I'm sure there's going to be a change in the climate within a week.

What we really need is five full-time health educators.

What we now know is that a rebuilding kick is going to be spread out -- pick a time -- five years, maybe even ten years. We are not going to get the usual quick economic impact.

What we learned in the five or six weeks leading up to the New Year's celebrations, ... that there is an infrastructure out there that is perhaps bigger than we anticipated.

There is a sort of veteran woman of condition, who, having lived always in the grand monde, and having possibly had some gallantries, together with the experience of five and twenty or thirty years, form a young fellow better than all the rules that can be given him. Wherever you go, make some of those women your friends; which a very little matter will do. Ask their advice, tell them your doubts or difficulties as to your behavior; but take great care not to drop one word of their experience; for experience implies age, and the suspicion of age, no woman, let her be ever so old, ever forgives.

There are plenty of young families who don't want to go into debt for five to seven years to have a safe, functional automobile.

There are some really good examples of where the industry has come together. The Internet Watch Foundation is funded by industry, and without legislation this approach has achieved fantastic things in the last five years.

The only way to get confidence is to practice very hard. We've been doing that the last eight days in Palm Springs, working very, very hard, playing five hours of tennis and working in the gym.

The only value of nearly five decades of my work is a warning to the murderers of tomorrow, that they will never rest.

There are four or five teams that could win it and we think we're in that group of four or five.

There are four or five teams selling and about 20 buying. The price for what's being offered is awful high right now. Whether teams get it or not, I don't know, but they're asking a lot.

There are four or five plays every game that will determine the outcome, and those plays are (usually) special teams. There's nothing worse than your offense going eight or nine plays for a touchdown, and then you kick off and see the other team go all the way with one play. That's demoralizing. We've come to understand the importance of special teams.

There are four or five guys in the room all the time with groin injuries. There's no rhyme or reason.

There are four or five guys fighting for that fifth spot. Everybody has a chance to be in there. I don't know what kind of shot I have. I'm just going to go out there and play as hard as I can.

There are five swing states that on Election Day have gay marriage bans on the ballot,

There are five quality kids at 103. Two kids who could have made noise in some of the other weaker sections will have to attend the WPIAL tournament as spectators. It's too bad, because all five would represent the section well.

There are five prayers and five times of day for prayer; the five have five names. Let the first be truthfulness, the second honest living, and the third charity in the Name of God. Let the fourth be good will to all, and the fifth the praise of the Lord.

There are five other parties ready to come back without precondition and at an early date. We're one of them, the Japanese, the South Koreans, the Chinese and the Russians. We're all ready to go back." ()

There are five other morning shows on that look exactly the same, ... Our morning show is clearly a newsy alternative to all of the other morning shows which feature a lot of chat and a lot of cooking and entertainment.

There are five or six teams that realistically have a chance to win the championship, and I definitely believe we're one of them.

There are five or six teams that can make it to the end. Nothing's changed.

There are five good reasons why men who can sing should come to this event, ... Sing your heart out, sharpen your singing skills, establish lasting friendships, enrich lives and have some fun.

There are five enforced changes in selection, but it is possible we could have made many of these changes in personnel anyway,

There are five different areas to stop and sit and ponder.

There are five business days until the comparable-store sales figures come out. Stores will be assessing things, and we could see some warnings, if they haven't done well.

There are fewer service providers and they are bigger and more powerful. It stands to reason that they want to buy from larger diversified companies. They'd rather not have to train technicians on products from five or six different vendors.

There are fewer MBA candidates out there than there were five years ago because companies are hiring more.

There are families who have lots of kids who go to Harvard, ... I don't know too many who have five go. What was unusual about (the Chavezes) was that it was a no-college-background family. It's not only a no-Harvard-tradition (family), there was no college tradition in the family.

There are directors you never, ever want to get close to. Lubitsch was one. Outside of the work, I don't think I ever said five words to him. Mamet was pretty much the same thing. His mind is working all the time.

There are definitely times since I've been back that I just kind of look up and take five extra seconds before I serve. This is what I was dreaming of just a couple of years ago, to come back and feel this feeling again.

We decided the time was not right five years ago. Today we see a different scenario. We have a strong United and a vibrant US Air. We are a company in need a strategic network on the East Coast. US Air clearly fills that void.

We decided in the last five minutes of the game that we weren't going to give up any lay-ups. I said to myself, 'I have to block this or foul him, or else Coach will go crazy.' I just tried my best to block it and it happened.

We're playing pretty stingy. We do a pretty good job in front him, but Manny has to make five outstanding saves a game probably and he continues to do it. That's the bottom line.

We're playing pretty good ball. We've had four or five (good games) in a row.

We're playing pretty good ball, keeping teams for five straight games under 60 points.

We're playing everybody this year. It gives us a guess at who we are and shows us what we have to do to get better. The Suffolk A Division is extremely competitive this year, with four or five teams that could win it all, and a few more teams that can rise up and beat anybody.

We've been in all 25 games going into the last three to five minutes. Even out in Arizona, we were competitive against some pretty good competition.
