Born Quotes
I'm a Taurus, which sounds like the name of a pickup truck. I'd prefer to be born under the sign of the rock wallaby.

Believed Quotes

Bled Quotes

Advantage Quotes
From the perspective of chemical or environmental contamination, it could have been much worse. One advantage is that we have so much water in the city and that dilutes out the chemicals.

Average Quotes
We believe our competitors have shown irrational exuberance with Christmas forecasts, ... We believe the average consumer is worried about higher gasoline prices, jobs and doesn't believe he will benefit from the stock market.

Action Quotes

Awakening Quotes
It was a year of awakening for the new investor on Wall Street and it was a very quick and sudden reversal of fortunes for many.

Breeding Quotes
