Glass Quotations | Page 4

A president's second term is like an hour glass with the sand running out.

As golfers, we rationalize everything. You hit a bad shot and think, 'I can make birdie from there.' That's how you're supposed to think. You should always try and look at the glass as half full. But any time your parents aren't doing well and their health isn't where it could be and you think it should be, it's always tough. Everyone has to deal with that at some point in time in their life and unfortunately, right now it's our time.

The building has stood empty for a long period of time and there are now shards of glass everywhere. It could be someone like my 14-year-old grandson who gets hurt. I am sure somebody has the authority to go along and get it boarded up, I cannot understand it.

They (the fans) were pretty annoying. Only half of the area behind our bench is glass -- it's like Kitchener in the penalty box -- so you can hear everything they're saying and they were really giving it to me. All I can do is go out there and keep scoring goals.

A lot of people look at the glass as half empty. It's half full. We're playing with great intensity. We've just got to keep it going.

They didn't do anything different, we just weren't on the top of our game. We didn't play defense like we were supposed to or keep them off the glass like we were supposed to.

They pour glass and copper and zirconium and tungsten in one end, and come out with these very beautiful picture tubes on the other. There's just not enough volume to justify this amazing plant.

They pounded the glass both ways. I saw more lob dunks tonight than I saw in the previous 56 games.

As New York careens toward the modernity of the twentieth century when Gibson girls were transforming themselves into working women, Clara Driscoll enters the male field of stained glass artistry and builds a lively, multi-national, multi-class women's department within Tiffany Studios.

It's just on tables. We encourage people during musical worship to get up and get their own piece of bread. A lot of people with families will break off a chunk of bread and get a glass of wine and go back to their table and have communion as a family. I don't put a lot of restrictions on it. For us right now there are a lot of people who really desire the Lord deeply, and if you put up more up roadblocks, they might get discouraged and just pitch it all. We really believe in erring on the sake of it's OK.

It was encouraging that we did a nice job on the glass but at the same time when you get to crunch time, those (mistakes) are the things that win you the game or lose you the game. We just had stupid turnovers the last three or four minutes.

It was the land of the walking wounded -- bloody families in bathing suits, cut by glass and wood and other debris, mourning. Most people lost all of their bags and passports. We were lucky.

It's a deep, irregular cut and it was cut by some sharp, jagged object ... a jagged piece of glass or a knife. My opinion is it was most likely broken glass.

It's the difference between having some presence and no presence in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, ... When our standings are in the paper every day there and Dallas-area talk shows say, 'TCU won against BYU in a Mountain West game today,' I'll take that as a glass half-full approach. Maybe what is a 10 to 12 percent (television) interest jumps to 15 or 18 percent right away and then CSTV explodes on the scene in 2006.

It's that dark cloud, the glass half empty on everything you do. It just becomes too much for me. So I unplugged myself.

It's pretty out of control, ... It's so big it's scary. The atmosphere is great: You get a glass liter mug and when you get food, you get actual silverware. They even have an area for vomiting.

It sounded like someone was really trying to get in, and after that we heard glass break, so we knew someone was trying to break in on us.

It sounded like a big freight train. I thought it was a tornado, and then I felt a little shaking. And it just kept getting worse. And it shook and the house started shaking pretty bad.

Do I really want to do a mobile game that's one of 300,000, where discoverability is everything? You really have to have a little more sizzle on the steak. I would rather be one of 100 apps for Google Glass than one of 300,000 for iOS and Android.

They came over for one glass of wine and stayed until midnight. They drank all my wine, smoked all my cigars and ate all my food. We were all supposed to go out to eat, but I'm still waiting to go. They brought their kids over and made my wife watch them.

They aren't as deep, but those kids that are out there know they are going to be out there. They're a very athletic team, long and rangy. I think they're a very confident team. They play with a great deal of confidence and you're able to see that. Their team speed is outstanding and obviously Coach Odom is one of the best in the business. They've been on a tear here down the stretch and they were on the verge of winning their conference tournament before coming up a little short. They've gone on the road to win some big-time games in this tournament, at Cincinnati and at Florida State .

I'm delighted that this agreement can finally enter into force, and I raise my glass to the negotiators for their efforts. This deal will facilitate access for EU wines to the lucrative US market, where consumers greatly appreciate the quality and long history behind our wines. In today's increasingly competitive market place, it is vital that there are no unnecessary and burdensome barriers for our winemakers, who I believe are the best in the world.

I never considered trying to make a business out of stained glass then. It was just something I did on the side,

I knew I had time for about one or two dribbles and when I shot it, I fell. I actually looked through the back of the glass to see it go in and am just so excited right now for my teammates.

I knew that the two previous times I drove, the help defender either blocked or altered my shot. I knew I had to get the shot up quick and high off the glass because they have some athletic big men. And that's exactly how it worked out.

I just went to the glass and the balls just came my way.

I'm from the South and I really studied Tennessee Williams, ... I love plays that are poetry-based, but last year, when all those Williams plays went to Broadway ('A Streetcar Named Desire' and 'The Glass Menagerie'), it didn't occur to producers to ask me if I was interested.

I met my wife, Patti, when I went to work for her installing stained glass windows. We worked so well together that we started fraternizing in the work place. That was 15 years ago and she's still my valentine to this day.

I'm seeing a lot more double and triple teams this year, but I've been doing a good job coming off screens, and working hard on the offensive glass to get easy points.

If moisture gets in under the glass (covering), it can completely ruin the painting. They also do fade like a watercolor on paper.

In the large ancestral home, he lived in one room and the body was kept in another one. He had made it clear to us that the body should be buried only after his death. He was so eccentric that he would not allow anybody to even look at the glass casket in which the body was kept.

Instead of having a 14-foot-wide living room and a 12-foot-wide bedroom along the glass, you have 26 to 28 feet of uninterrupted glass views looking out.

In our system we let him go to the offensive glass because he's so good.

I noticed the sliding glass door wouldn't open. The concrete under the door had cracked and buckled upward and jammed the door into its frame.
