Hype Quotations | Page 2

Sade's stuff is real deceptive. She's got stuff about prostitutes, poverty and people on the streets.

Barack Obama and Jimmy Hoffa are like Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Lady Gaga and hype, the 'Jersey Shore' cast and hairspray: inseparable. The president can no more disown the Teamsters Union's leader than he can disown his own id.

Reality is easy. It's deception that's the hard work.

But if anyone supposes that there was no commercial fraud in the Middle Ages, let him study the commercial legislation of England for that period, and his mind will be satisfied, if he has a mind to be satisfied and not only a fancy to run away with him.

Deceit is the game of petty spirits, and that is by nature a woman's quality.

You avoid the hype while you're working, you have to, but the premiere is the one night of the year where you can enjoy it.

The easiest way to not believe your own hype is to not know what people are saying about you.

I pray to God that I shall not live one hour after I have thought of using deception.

I was never too keen on the British music press. They've called us a supermarket hype, and they used to suggest that we didn't write our own songs.

I haven't eaten at a McDonald's since I became President.

It is standard practice for corrupt leaders who are seeking a certain political outcome to hype or manipulate a terror threat or a threat of violent domestic subversion. While sometimes the threat is manufactured, frequently the hyped threat is based on a real danger.

Men are so simple and so much inclined to obey immediate needs that a deceiver will never lack victims for his deceptions.

Force and fraud are in war the two cardinal virtues.

There have been high crimes and misdemeanors, but they have been committed by the special prosecutor and the Congress, not the president.

I ain't got no beef with east coast, I think it's just being hyped up.

I think hype is a good thing. You need it and it'll teach you valuable things and you'll grow stronger, which is what I've done.

I think President Obama is trying to deceive the public in pretending that he was not a part of Congress that has made some decisions in the past that got us to where we are today.

Take all the hype out of the exercise and think of it as brushing your teeth.

A president either is constantly on top of events or, if he hesitates, events will soon be on top of him. I never felt that I could let up for a moment.

Even though I'm a hype man myself, I like the practicality of it all. People who understand how to turn a profit. At the end of the day, this is still business so I'm looking for real practical knowledge of how to actually make money, not necessarily raise it.

I liked Dallas better because it was more deceptive, you could do more with it.

I think that big, sort of theatrical relaunches tend to set you up for failure and hype.

Beyond the hype, style, and speculation, the truth is that the iPad is really just another tablet device. A really big PDA, where a touchscreen does what a laptop's keyboard used to do.

If in my twenties I'd gotten one of the two-dozen roles that I did screen tests for and almost got, I think I would have become bored with the awards circuit, the whole hype machine.

Preserve the President's options. He may need them.

I've watched a lot of people who became famous who completely change and I think it's because they tend to believe all the hype that's out there. I don't think there's that much hype about me.

Nothing is more unreliable than the populace, nothing more obscure than human intentions, nothing more deceptive than the whole electoral system.

Truth is often the favorite tool of those who deceive.

There comes a time when deceit and defiance must be seen for what they are. At that point, a gathering danger must be directly confronted. At that point, we must show that beyond our resolutions is actual resolve.

Y2K hype taps our native discomfort with the realities of a dynamic, evolving social order. It elevates personal, local contact over the impersonality of the 'extended order' of trade and technological networks. It suggests that we can wipe the slate clean and start from scratch.

There are few things in which we deceive ourselves more than in the esteem we profess to entertain for our firends. It is little better than a piece of quackery. The truth is, we think of them as we please, that is, as they please or displease us.

I don't want to believe my own hype.

A conception not reducible to the small change of daily experience is like a currency not exchangeable for articles of consumption; it is not a symbol, but a fraud.

I'm different from any other designer, businesswise, in that I've built this company up and I own it. I never had business hype behind me to promote my image... My image is real... I have never had marketing people telling me what to do.

There is no other event out there that combines snowboarding and skiing in an open registration format on this scale. This event is receiving incredible hype and response in its inaugural year and promises to set the standard for open competitions.

We're making clothes - we aren't saving the world. I'm not saying that designers aren't artists, but at the end of the day, we make clothes. Hopefully we make beautiful clothes with a message, but in the end it's for people to wear. I think that the hype of fashion has come down a level.

Top games now debut with the same hype and anticipation accorded top movies and music albums, and often outsell them. Tremendous amounts of time, money, and talent go into developing today's games. And whatever the platform, there is something challenging, interesting, and exciting for virtually everyone.

We're still thinking about first place, we have to. It's going to be a lot of hype this weekend, just like it's always been.

We have never been linked to any Islamic militants, ... It was just a media hype that somebody picked up with and ran with.

The technology life cycle has three stages: Hype, disillusionment, and application.

The press frequently sneers at the hype devoted to a superstar, but the press itself is responsible for all the hype.

This bowl has lived up to all the hype that I heard of it. Coaches...that have been here rave about the hospitality, rave about the venue and all the activities for the players. The people here have been marvelous. The bowl committee has bent over backwards to make sure that our stay is an excellent one. The players have something to do if they choose every day. You couldn't find a better place.

I just don't want to get caught up in the hype.

Despite the negativity coming from the President's opponents, the United States remains fully committed to assisting the Iraqis in restoring security and rebuilding their nation.

I hate the hype. When 50 Cent came out, people were saying that he was the best rapper alive: "Oh, he got shot nine times, he's better than Tupac, he's better than Biggie." That was all hype.

All of the young people - the artsy people, people who get overlooked because they're weird or they don't have hype around them - need to get some shine.

People who invest make money for themselves; people who speculate make money for their brokers. And that, in turn, is why Wall Street perennially downplays the durable virtues of investing and hypes the gaudy appeal of speculation.

There are only so many new niches people can come up with. When everything's said and done, and all the hype dies down, you still have to run a wireless company.

Let's shut it up and kick it off and let people enjoy the game. Hopefully, both teams will play well enough that the game lives up to the hype because sometimes they don't.

Many people want the new brand name so they to can feel honored and respected on the streets, this new hype about our brand is what the world needs to feel inside themselves. The new hype is pride, honor and respect.

Many businesses are delaying rolling out high productivity technologies, such as wireless local area networks and IP telephony systems, because they have seen so much hype about the potential threats.

She's in a very tough spot, either way it goes. Let's say she doesn't prosecute. There's been a lot of hype (since the FBI re-opened the case in 2004), and that has raised expectations. But if she does prosecute, there will be people saying this is a weak case. I would not want to be in her shoes.

Of all the hype he received in college, I thought he deserved it,

Obviously there is a lot of hype going on with the offense, which is well deserved. But when we get out there and do what we got to do, then we'll get the respect we deserve.

Nobody's like a Champ Bailey or a Charles Woodson that came out with the hype like that.

One of the keys to finding consistency is not being knocked any which way by the hype and the buildup. We've found a way of dealing with that and ... taking our best preparation into the big game.

If these guys couldn't play, they wouldn't be here. And I think that's what people forget. Everybody buys into the hype that comes out of the Cleveland media, and nobody here in Denver has truly sat back and evaluated the situation. If they did, they'd say it's a great thing Denver did.

But it's hard to get excited sometimes when your company delivers increasing revenue quarter on quarter, yet you read hype about Apple and their products and they get all the buzz.

Bush cannot embark on a mission that fails. Given what happened to his father and the hype in this Administration, it would be the end.

Further consolidation is inevitable but there's a lot of hype and speculation about how things will play out.

I expect astounding things coming in the future, but we need a reset on the market projections and hype of today.

I enjoy seeing how we respond in big games. Most of our guys haven't played with this much hype before.

I don't think it's hype. Hype to me is when someone is taking something and building it up. I think it's natural and organic and it's real. Do I think it will translate to America? Yes I do.

For what we're doing around here, every game is a championship for us. To have buildup and the great hype from our opponents at their stadiums that are going to be raucous and crazy just makes us better. It makes us stronger.

If the hype was real, I could completely appreciate their arguments.

We talked about the hype with Penn Hills. But I also talked to our team about Connellsville's traditions. We're not focusing on Penn Hills. We are focusing on ourselves.

Hardware wise, there's a lot of marketing hype about the consoles. A lot of it really needs to be taken with grains of salt about exactly how powerful it is, ... The Xbox 360 has an architecture where you essentially have got three processors and they're all running the same memory pool and they're all synchronized, and cache coherent, and you can spawn off another thread in your program and make it go do some work. That's kind of the best case and it's still really difficult to turn into faster performance or getting it to get more stuff done in a game title.

Hype is wonderful when it happens, and you should capitalize on it. But you shouldn't bank on it being the thing that will take you to the next step. Because it's fleeting. The blah-blah-blah goes away, but you're still there.

I actually look at marketing more like developing content for the show. We're really setting out in our marketing to prove what these shows are. And while we can hype and sell, I'd rather tell a story than sell a story.

Guys talk about it. They say I wonder what the deal is. The media has created a certain hype and you'd think that would spur (fans) to come out for the season-opener.

I was joking with Chris and Brian up there, how all three of us were just glad this thing was coming to an end after all the hype in the last three months. Now they're both competing for a national championship tomorrow (today).

It hurts. It really does. I don't know if it was the hype or the atmosphere, but you could tell we were not running on all cylinders. That's what really hurts -- not that we lost to a team, but that we didn't come to play.

I think the hype of Senior Night hurt us. The same thing happened last year.

I think audiences, in times of trouble and good times, look for people on television who are basic, don't have airs, don't hype themselves.

It is not that we will hype a case because it is committed by citizens from a certain country... and it is not unusual for crimes in the US to be reported by the media,

I think that's natural because it's no longer new to them. Our main approach is to carry on doing what we do, not believe our own hype and do what we've always done, which is try and make the funniest show possible.

I think they did a very good job of avoiding the hype and feeling like something special was expected.

I think there will come a day when people will purchase drivers by ball performance and not the hype or numbers written on the club. Driver true-loft performance is a synergy of factors. Only the ball flight can tell you the true dynamic loft -- and that is a mixed function of measured loft, face angle, center of gravity, moment of inertia top to bottom and face roll.

Last year, dealing with the championship game and the 15-1 season and all the hype and everything that went with it has definitely helped him deal with what's going on now. He feels and looks like a six- or seven-year guy.

I said when we see him, we'll take it to him just like anyone else. He laughed it off, but he's a competitor like I am. We don't get caught up in the hype of it. I know that I'm going to give my best effort every time I'm on that sideline and he will too.

Our goal is to cut through all of the hype and misinformation and provide the most comprehensive, easiest to use and effective methods that will produce healthy returns with a minimum of risk.

Part of the reason some of those records fell off is after a while that hype rubs off, ... Then you're just another person in jail. The label doesn't care about you anymore because you can't market and promote your record.

Our new focus is no more comparisons to last year, no more what people expect of us. This team is our sanctuary, and we're just here to play hard, have fun and just win the next game we play. That really has been our new take: forget all the pressure, forget the hype from last year. It's this year, it's the next game and we have to come together as a team. And we did tonight.

People have asked me if this has been the college football game with the most hype on it. I would say yes, because the media has never been more prolific.

That creates a little hype and energy for them, ... That's a very positive thing if you can control it and keep their focus and not get distracted.

My parents would never put too much hype into anything. They're very proud of me, but they're Queensland people. They're just glad that I have a job.

Look at him. He's the first one on the field, just a total pro. From the day he got here, he didn't have a big-league attitude. I expected maybe a Barry Bonds kind of scene, with the hype and the entourage, but Vlad is all about business. He would have fit in perfectly in that clubhouse over there.

Look, I'm going to take full advantage of this situation just because I love working with great filmmakers. But I've been around for a while, and I'm not going to play into the hype that I'm some great, you know, discovery.

I think right now it's a lot of hype about nothing. I don't expect much to happen this year.

I think in a game of that magnitude, there's going to be hype after it, and many people analyzing things. It's something to talk about. That's it. I don't think it's overshadowed what we've done.

I think maybe some of the younger guys learned that once all the hype goes away, it becomes a football game. It took about a quarter. For a quarter, things were pretty tight all around and then it becomes a game.

I'm still hoping, for the FBI's sake, that there's going to be a Perry Mason moment here. For a reasonable person, based on the hype this case received - even from the U.S. Attorney's Office - there's an expectation something huge is going to happen.

Manufacturing growth has moderated in recent months, as the cycle moderates despite the hype about the new-found recovery.

Man, Travis is good. He's got power to all fields. He might not get as much hype as David Ortiz or guys like that. He's been kind of been hiding in the AL Central. But he's well known to us pitchers.

That was a tough way to open up the season ... all the hype and everything and playing in New England, which is about as tough a place as you can play,

That was the first time there was this incredible media hype around a murder. Was it murder? Was it an accident? Everyone knew he was a boy trying to better himself. And everyone knew there was a wealthy girl involved.

That was a new brand, and certainly now that it's established with a very loyal following and given the amount of hype and buzz they created, that is one barometer of what possibly could have been.

I was really nervous. I just wanted to thank the fans for all their support. It's something I felt I should do. It was something that got a lot more hype than I thought it was going to. I just wanted to salute them and thank them for the four great years I had here.

I was really excited about practice this week. Their enthusiasm this week got me excited to coach. I think you could see a lot of pieces of their hearts and guts out on the floor. Both teams were exhausting early with the hype and left everything out on the floor.

Microsoft has rediscovered something that was old, ... My chagrin is seeing all the hype -- they're talking about this like it's the second coming.
