Sat Quotations | Page 6

We already heard talks of it happening so we had a public computer sit out in a lobby and asked people to vote. When they sat down to vote, most of them couldn't because it said they already did.

There is a lot of pressure in the first series and I thought it was better that they sat it out.

There is no quick fix for Kmart, and that's a problem given their financial situation, ... They really have to go through the process to figure out who their customer is, or could be. They kind of just sat there and let everybody eat at their market from all sides. They have to find their new relevance. They may be dreaming of a mass market that doesn't exist for them anymore.

This weekend against DePaul was Ashley's toughest match ever, and I sat there for the entire match to help her.

Those two really clicked. When we sat down and Robinson started telling his story, we just could see it. We could see the show.

Those two factors, when we sat down and went through it, helped the board decide that the responsible thing to do is the Proposition 39 bond, where we will pay less in interest and generate more in proceeds.

This was this guy's passion. He sat in movie theaters when he probably was supposed to make collections and break some knees or something.

We got ahead, and we sort of sat on it and maybe got a little conservative. I didn't feel like they were moving the ball good enough on us to beat us. I just felt like our team was dominating the line of scrimmage.

We gained national attention because of the way our Unmet Needs Committee worked together. When we walked in that room and sat down at the table, agency agendas were put away to help people who needed it most.

We kind of sat back and defended the ball for a long, long time. You can't play good teams like that, you have to go for the next ball.

To his pure and knightly soul not Edith alone, but every woman, sat high and aloof, enthroned and exalted, with a thousand mystic excellencies and virtues which raised her far above the rude world of man. There was joy in contact with them; and yet there was fear, fear lest his own unworthiness, his untrained tongue or rougher ways should in some way break rudely upon this delicate and tender thing.

When I was three and a half years old, I heard my big sister tell my mum that at school that day all the kids sat on the floor and watched 'The Neverending Story.' Having never heard of the movie, I concluded that this was what school must be: sitting cross legged on the floor listening to a never-ending story. Page after page.

When I was putting the 'Best of Hollywood' book together, I sat down and added up just the list of Westerns I've done, and it came to well over 200.

We've really not talked about it. I think that's one of the reasons we've been able to stay loose. We've really not sat here saying for the last eight weeks, 'Wouldn't it be great.' I'm sure if we win this one and get 14, I'm sure it will be talked about a little more.

What did we care, any one of the three of us, where we sat or how we lived, when youth throbbed hot in our veins, and our souls were all aflame with the possibilities of life?

We just sat in the bar waiting, and eventually the band just left. Jen and I just got to talking, and then she mentioned she played a drum. The rest is kind of history.

We just sat here and thought. Basically a mental thing where we knew we didn't do the job and we didn't do our job defensively or offensively so we just kind of had a moment of silence.

We just sat and didn't talk about hockey. It's a whirlwind of emotions, but we have two days to regroup and still play for a medal. If anything, there's an extra fire to come out strong.

We just triple-teamed everyone. I hit first, then they hit after that, we started hitting and we got two in the group. I sat on everything in the back and just shut it down. It was epic.

We just triple-teamed everyone, ... I hit first, then they hit after that, we started hitting and we got two in the group. I sat on everything in the back and just shut it down. It was epic.

We just got our first sat (satellite) phone that works today.

We were playing Prairie in the district tournament a week ago and we were down 32-15, just getting routed. Lorenzo came in and sat in the front row and guess what happened? I'm thinking of getting a little picture of him to just hold up.

We lost two players to grades and two others sat out for disciplinaryÊreasons. So we had to shift some players around to newÊpositions. But that's no excuse for only managing three shots on goal.

We had the agreement, everything was there, then he said he had to go and ask the bosses and they said no, ... We sat down and sat down and in the end he said he had to go to the union bosses to get permission. Can you imagine? Permission!

With fingers weary and worn, / With eyelids heavy and red, / A woman sat in unwomanly rags, / Plying her needle and thread - / Stitch! stitch! stitch!

We helped them unload and while they were here all of the people were coming in and getting meals. We let them go through the stuff, so these six men got to see the fruits of their labor. It was the most incredible thing because we sat and watched six grown men ball like babies as they watched the people taking the things that they had brought and making a difference in somebody else's life.

We certainly respect them, they put it on us by 26 points on the road. With or without Bulger, we?re going to have our hands full. When we got beat by West Virginia, for the next two weeks we all had to hear about it. I don?t think that sat well with our kids and our coaching staff. So we have all the motivation in the world to come out and play well against West Virginia.

This thing would pay for itself to the city over time. This will generate new sales tax. I don't think anything would have happened on that site. It would have sat there and decayed without the help the city has provided through this redevelopment district. If the project would have worked without the city investing $3 million, then that site would have been developed a long time ago.

Today's result was obviously a disappointing way to end the season. We lost out under the first safety car when we pitted and the safety car was in front of us. It should have waved us past but it didn't. Montoya and I sat behind it and it was then that I lost about three places. But my thoughts are already turning to 2006 and I think we have a lot to look forward to.

We are still going to require that students still take the SAT with the writing section, as well as the ACT.

We went out and played a great first two periods, probably the best two periods of the whole series, and then we sat back on our heels, which is a no-no. It's very disappointing and shocking.

Brent's a young man that wasn't getting the attention that we felt like he deserved. We sat down with his dad, John, and made DVDs and sent them out. We're trying to get some visits lined up for him and hopefully things will fall into place and he will get some offers.

Brock sat out with a minor injury. Having him in the lineup would have given us at least 20 more team points.

Brittany is our best closer. We're glad she's back. I thought tonight we came out in the first half afraid to make mistakes and sat back and watched things happen.

Before I was on 'Idol,' I just sat at home and played video games all day long. Now I get to travel and work towards my dream. It's the best feeling ever.

Before I sat down and became a writer, before I began to do it habitually and for my living, there was a decades-long stretch when I was terrified that it would suck, so I didn't write. I think that marks a lot of people, a real terror at being bad at something, and unfortunately, you are always bad before you can get a little better.

Even though we sat next to each other for weeks on end during meetings, we never had a connection like that. But all of a sudden, there it was.

Believe it or not, when practice begins on Thursday morning at Texas Motor Speedway, that will be the first time I've ever even sat in a Grand National car.

Everybody gathered at my Aunt Hannah's house, and we sat around and talked, ate, drank and told lies. That's what people do, and I just sat there and listened.

Every player started at least one game in the HIT tournament and every player sat at least one game except for Lonnie. That's how well he's swinging the bat.

Every great writer in history has taken a cigar from that humidor and sat down in the Oak Room for a puff.

As soon as we sat down and started playing, we immediately started playing really well together.

As the light changed from red to green to yellow and back to red again, I sat there thinking about life. Was it nothing more than a bunch of honking and yelling? Sometimes it seemed that way. - Deep Thoughts (Saturday Night Live)

As I sat in a small room constructing what seemed to me awkward sentences and paragraphs, McCone was out having exciting adventures.

As I sat down, Norman started making birdies. I got nervous, so I got up and started walking around. They didn't make as many birdies when I walked around, so I walked around the rest of the time.

At Paramount, I sat at lunch with John Wayne. I couldn't even talk.

At spring practice, he sat us down and told us what he is about; he told us what's important in his life and how important the players are to him. He was the only coach I had that told us he loved us.

At the beginning of the tournament, we weren't playing as a team. We weren't satisfied, but just before the Canada game, we sat down and talked about just going out and playing our game. Since then, we've been building momentum, and it carried over.

Could've, should've or would've, you can't change what happened. The varsity eight sat on the line before the race and got over-excited. What's upsetting is the night before, they practiced so well and were really together.

Cursed be the makers of the pit, / Of the fire (kept burning) with fuel, / When they sat by it, / And they were witnesses of what they did with the believers.

Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good, ... When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move. All last night sat on the levee and moaned.

(Cruse) was only going to go two or three innings at best, and obviously it wasn't a good outing for him, so we went ahead and sat him down.

Crime fiction has always been what I wanted to read, so when I sat down to write my first book, it was naturally the way that I was going to go.

And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.

And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

And whosoever toucheth any thing that she sat upon shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.

Dwight sat out of practice but we think he's going to be fine and ready to play. He's got a little foot soreness, not really a sprain but just a sore foot. But all indications are he should be ready to go. So we just wanted to rest him today.

Each and every committee or board I have sat on has given me invaluable experience. The contacts I have made enable me to go out into the community and feel very comfortable. While I am still new, I feel that I can help make a difference in a very positive way for the community and those who live and work here.

Due to illness, injuries and SAT (testing), we only sent seven kids.

Essentially it was a process and it was in interview in which we sat down at talk to one of the national officials.

During the time of the draft and all the workouts, it was a little hectic. It came to our family a little fast. It was a bit overwhelming. With the help of my parents, we sat down and didn't let things get over our heads. In the end, it came down to school. Education is the only thing you have for sure. I made the right decision.

First, when they made us get out we had to go on a Navy ship on the Mississippi River. We sat there for about three days. Then they shipped us over to the airport, from the airport to here.

There's no question. We sat down last year with the group that was coming back and we threw out what everybody else was returning around the state and let them know where we were and said if everything stays the same and from February to November, if we don't improve, we don't get any faster, then we aren't going to be fighting for a state title. That was pretty clear.

There's not a lot of selling pressure in the market. Having sat here and watched and traded, you could tell something has changed. It's a bit of a reprieve. I think the market has to prove itself ... but this rally feels a little bit different. It feels a little bit better.

There's not a hard line that (an SAT score) has to be above this line or can't be below this line..

There's only maybe two pages in Jane's book that deals with the marriage because she was really talking only about her becoming an EMT and going through this midlife crisis, ... So when Alan Hines wrote the screenplay, he sat down with Michael Stern and really got down to the bottom of what was going on in that relationship. The work was there in the script.

I started talking about writing a book in 1992. I was writing a lot, and I got an idea for a story in the middle of the night. I sat down and started writing dialogue.

I spoke to (his coach) Tracey (Menzies) and Craig and told them where they sat and now they just have to consider what they will do.

I've been seeing the ball real well and they threw a lot of fastballs so I just sat back and waited. Hitting in the middle of the lineup has been great for me and hitting a double now and then helped keep the team going.

The worst thing for us was probably getting the early lead. We sat back after that, but in the end we held on and got a good performance out of our guys.

The (search) committee sat down and went through all the applications and looked for people with prior chamber or not-for-profit experience.

The SAT plays an important role in helping admissions officers around the country sort out students, well-deserving students from 20,000 high schools that have different curriculums, different grading standards, and different ability to help students get ready for college.

The SAT is not designed to be an evaluation measure of school districts by itself, ... It's used in conjunction with other things to show longitudinal trends.

The SAT has been administered for 80 years. Nowadays we are giving the test nearly 3 million times a year. This is the first time in 80 years that there has been a problem of this magnitude. I would hope that people will keep this in perspective.

I've snuck up there and sat down a couple of times just to see what it feels like, I must admit, ... Would I like to have a chance to be in command of a flight sometime? Yes. But I think I am a little old for that.

I've never sat down and tried to write something for some occasion. You just write the tune and stay totally wide open to everything. It'll find the person or persons who are supposed to do it.

I've sat down with coaches now, and they say nothing is wrong with the throwing motion. Don't fix what's already fixed. I'm going to keep doing what I've been doing all my life.

I've never really sat down and figured out what we've put into it. I don't think I want to know.

It would be much better if we sat down together and came up with a personnel system.

It was too bad 'cause he sat with the favorites for a really long time. But once again it shows that Jakob is finding the form like Vande Velde, who has now been given the freedom to ride his own chance, while the others are going to back up Sastre 100%.

It was the third worst day of my life. We sat in a courtroom for 4? hours, learning what a good boy Linton was. It was cruel.

It was the third worst day of my life. We sat in a courtroom for 4½ hours, learning what a good boy Linton was. It was cruel.

It was ultimately her decision. But we all sat down and ranked the schools in terms of academics and athletics.

It was us, we sat back. We've got to go hard and keep pressing and we didn't do that. We sat back on our heels and a team like Atlanta with the firepower they have, (they) came out and took advantage of it.

It was worse when I stood around or sat down. During the game (against Austin), I could barely move.

It was worse than what you actually think. If you go and talk to these people personally, they'll tell you something that sounds like Steven Spielberg made a movie about. That's what touched me. I think about the two or three stories I sat there and heard. It'll change your whole view of how people actually can be. ... It makes you feel like what we're going through as a team is very, very minimal.

It was a little nerve-racking. I sat and watched the first six innings, but you have to do that when you have guys like Grady Sizemore and Jason Michaels ahead of you.

The snow was falling heavily outside. I sat before a blank page for close to ten hours. I refused to get up; instead attempted with great pains to coerce stubborn thoughts from my noodle. Useless it seemed until the 11th hour and then all I'd seen and felt and heard, arrived, and was transcribed effortlessly like the tune of chirping birds.

The suburbs have become about safety, about protecting yourself from the kinds of people who are unclean. But Jesus sat down and ate with people who were supposed to be avoided.

The thing you hope for is that he's working on the SAT or working hard on the GPA. He's got to qualify.

the thing sat up and hissed at us, with those nasty teeth showing. We had guys running out of its way.

I've mainly just sat and listened, and I've understood the concepts.

I've always sat back and said I've tried to do two things in journalism. One is report stories that no one else could report and develop contacts that no one else thought to develop. I worked around the clock to do that. It's those two things that caused suspicion among those who don't know me.

I've always known to come to the ballpark and play and be in the lineup. I've never missed time because of injuries. I've had days off, where I knew coming in that I wasn't going to play, but I've never sat out 10 days in a row during the season. That was totally new to me. To play a whole career and not know what that's like, that's unusual. Now I'm dealing with it as best I can.

I've already sat them down and had the talk, ... They're very up for their new roles this season.

I wanted to find something I could do at home. I sat down with a friend and made a list of all the things I could try, and one of them was writing a novel.
