Norway Quotations
Norway Quotes from:
-
Ahead Quotes
Nationalism in Norway was very strong in 1905, that we must be free of Sweden. But I must say, I'm not 100 percent sure that was a wise decision. We had the war; we were occupied by Germans from 1940 to '45. And if there had been one Scandinavian country, then it would not have been so very easy probably to go ahead with the occupation.

Counts Quotes
Ellen Galinsky's surveys at the Families and Work Institute pointed to a desirable norm for many parents for working not full-time, but part-time. And I get that. I mean, Norway has a 35-hour work week. That counts as part-time for us in the United States, you know. And Norway's doing well, by the way.

Committee Quotes
We need between three to six months. I am not going to specify the periods now because we have an international committee actually involving the European Union, the United States, Canada, Japan and Norway who work with us in the local government elections. I will convene this committee as soon as possible.
-
Canada Quotes
I think you can't overreact from one game, the Norway game, and ignore the Canada game. You judge players over time, not over a game. As he continues to move forward we'll have a better feel for the direction he's headed. Obviously, he's getting better. From my perspective, I need to see if he's developing into a guy who should be a player on the World Cup roster and can help us win a game.

Almost Quotes
Look, I don't think President Obama would have bowed to the ruler of Saudi Arabia if he didn't have oil to the degree that the Saudis do. I think they and other producing states, almost all of whom, except Norway and Canada, are dictatorships or autocratic systems, have thrown their weight around because of oil.

Against Quotes
You are definitely seeing signs under Walter that we are playing better as a team and with a formation everyone understands. We are getting some momentum going and confidence is high. Norway will be tough, because we put a lot of effort into it against Italy, but I imagine we will just rest up and then be ready to have a bash at them. We are not going to give this up yet.

Among Quotes
That Norway has fallen to 18th place is not good, but you are still among the 20 best nations. The study gives a clear message about how Norway must improve its efforts. But the study also shows that the world has a major, shared problem. Even the best nations would not get better than a 'B' if this had been a school exam, no one got an 'A'.
