Seems Quotations | Page 9

We've been in this position it seems like forever now. We're on the outside looking in. We've had our chances and just haven't been able to take advantage of it.

We're asking that this be done, and I don't think we have much choice. The economy seems to be going along nicely now. But if you ask any economist what's the No. 1 thing that could stop it, it's oil prices.

We're asking drivers along that area to watch out for anything that seems unusual.

We're a new league, a league of 16. But this seems like the old wars of the '80s and '90s.

We're amazed that the planet-formation process seems to be so universal. Pulsars emit a tremendous amount of high energy radiation, yet within this harsh environment we have a disk that looks a lot like those around young stars where planets are formed.

We're amazed that the planet-formation process seems to be so universal.

We had not planned on having any vote, other than just to study (the contract), ... It's not a public hearing, but it is a study session. We will take comments. And then if it seems suitable to the property owners involved -- who we're most concerned about -- we will have a vote on Sept. 26 (the next council meeting) on this issue to start the ball rolling for a new bridge.

We had no idea that we would get that much support. And there seems to be an energy that has never really quite been there before.

human relationships simply aren't durable. I think back to the women in my life. they seem non-existent.

It seems I make a lot of mistakes and it seems that I am not allowed any.

We have received a variety of messages from North Korea in recent months and it seems to me that the general thrust is that they would welcome a visit by assistant secretary (James) Kelly,

We have quite a few returning seniors, that's for sure. It just seems like over the last eight years any time we've had a senior-dominated group much like this one, we've always had a pretty successful season.

We have a youthful lineup. They have gone through a stretch where they have collectively come up short driving runs in. Each time it doesn't happen there seems to be more importance or a heightened awareness the next time, an added weight to be fit into place. That's just part of the experience process they have to get through. They have to realize that no matter what happens, we're going to play another game.

We've seen, really across the store, improving results. Part of it seems to be better merchandising, part of it seems to be improved execution, and part of it is just momentum -- once people start going to a store, they tend to return.

We've seen quite good sales figures from all the UK life insurance stocks. It looks like people are buying savings products once more and the sector seems to be performing relatively well again now after a tough few years.

We've seen a series of half-hearted investigations and slaps on the wrist. The government seems more interested in managing the detainee abuse scandal than in addressing the underlying problems that caused it.

The fact that public servants who have seriously violated their duties to the public would be rewarded by a lifetime pension seems grossly unfair to average citizens.

The fact that Mori is selling the property for two to three times more than the prices of other properties in the area is really something and it seems to have captured everyone's attention.

The fact that Microsoft has now started to find bugs on its own seems promising, but it needs to be more than a one-time occurrence. Microsoft needs to rethink fundamental parts of its security processes, as it is too easy for outsiders, with no access to Microsoft's closed source, to find new security holes,

The extraordinary thing about Irving Berlin is that he's like the American Mozart! It seems as if his songs were always there. How do you put together songs like 'Always' or 'Cheek To Cheek'? Songs of his are, frankly, perfect.

The extent of the drop seems overdone, ... I would not be surprised if home sales rebound, though the days of record sales levels may be behind us.

The creative imperative seems to be directed at getting around government regulations.

The facilities are really nice and this park seems more accommodating than others,

The problem with the newer technologies is that there seems to be a focus on general popularity rather than depth of content. That will continue for some amount of time until we get deeper taxonomies.

The outlook for inflation seems very positive to me for some time to come, and therefore, I doubt that there will be a need to fight inflation for quite a while, ... Indeed, I believe that further disinflation is more likely over the next year or so than a resurgence of inflation.

As we get older, things seem less important.

History is sinking and only a very few seem dimly aware that things are getting bad.

Man, when he is merely what he seems to be, is almost nothing.

They have stopped deceiving you, not loving you. And it seems to you that they have stopped loving you.

Until I can read a story physically, with the eyes, it doesn't seem to exist for me.

We live in a very chaotic world that sometimes we - it just seems like a mess. One of the reasons why we listen to music, and to great classical music in particular, is that everything is in an order and in a place and has a beauty that you see in nature, that you see and that people look for when they look for God.

We have a remarkably resilient economy. It's taken hits from a hurricane, and increased oil prices, yet seems to still keep going. We've had pressures that heat up and pressures that slow down the economy and consequently, we've ended up with a nice, consistent level.

We have high expectations, and this kind of levels us out. It makes us realize that we're not going to walk through everything. It's really disappointing. It seems like a loss.

At times, it seems to me that to be human is to want that which we cannot have. For some, this is power. For me, it is peace.

It seems to leave the darkness rather blacker than before.

We're having some personal problems amongst the team. When you have a 25-30-man squad, 10 percent of those kids are going to have problems. It just seems that this year we have a little more than usual. These are issues that college student athletes have and we're going to have to address them.

We're happy with the effort. Unfortunately we hit some balls right at some people tonight and they didn't get through and that's baseball. It seems to be going like that for us, but we're going to catch our breaks.

We're happy to be in the night session. There is much more of a crowd and the excitement seems to be better. This is just such a great experience and we are really looking forward to it.

This really has a very good feeling about it. It really seems like it's going to be an involving film, really, about the nature of writing, the nature of observation, the nature of non-fiction.

This questionnaire should have been completed with care and candor, but it seems to be a bit rushed and not as carefully prepared as one would hope.

Nothing common can seem worthy of you.

The psychology of it -- $100 -- it seems like a lot. That's a nice problem to have. So few companies are doing very, very well.

The Protestant community is essentially quite conservative and the unionist leadership seems to have been unable to explain changes to them.

The program definitely seems a lot stronger this year. Some people are stressed about it because of school reasons. Some people are real excited to face more teams. I think it's a good thing.

We've talked about having killer instinct and putting teams away. But we gave up a goal in the last minute (of the second) and that's something that seems to be repetitive in our game over the last few weeks and we've got to address it. This isn't the time of year you want this to happen.

We've studied the Bowling Green defense of a year ago, and what they did and their tendencies and their patterns. And we've also studied the Clemson defense as to what they did, what he (Lovett) seems to hang his hat on, and that type of thing. So it's been a little more of a difficult preparation for us.

We've scored 25 runs over the last two games, so we're swinging it pretty good. We've got some good hitters and we've got a good mix of older guys and younger guys. It all seems to work out.

We've said winning is contagious just as much as losing. This year it seems we've got the contagious side of winning. So as long as we keep with our momentum and intensity up, we should be good. If we want to come on strong, this is a great time to do it.

We've said pretty consistently we would be willing to accept a responsible form of an individual mandate if it was also paired with a clear employer responsibility. It seems from what we are hearing that both elements are there.

We've saber rattled so much it seems like, just to save face, we're going to have to go in. The feeling seems to be that war is not necessary, but inevitable.

We've run up around the front at most of the intermediate tracks -- it just seems like something always strikes at some point to derail us from maintaining those strong runs, but our intermediate cars are better and stronger.

Emancipatory politics always consists in making seem possible precisely that which, from within the situation, is declared to be impossible.

I can control most things, but I don't seem to be able to control death.

When I was a young lad, I listened to Cream, Hendrix, Frank Zappa and the Allman Brothers. I thought they were gods. Hendrix still seems like one. But then I wanted to know who influenced them, so I had to go back to Howlin Wolf, Albert King, B.B. King and Muddy Waters. I also took a look at country greats like Jerry Reed and Buck Owens. My goal has always been to amalgamate song and flashy guitar.

When I have started him, he hasn't played as well. I guess he just needs to watch for a few minutes before he goes in. That seems to work. We are still finding out what works, but this team is giving me great effort.

When I look out in the morning when we get up, I feel like I live in Paris. I look out over the rooftops and it seems like I live in a different city. I can't believe that moving 2 miles from my old home could possibly make me feel this different about my life right now. It's incredible.

Everything's getting homogenized. It seems to me like music and behavior and everything else is getting homogenized.

It seems like a necessary balance to life, being part of the community.

The primary driver behind the miss looks to be net interest margin compression, which we have seen from other banks that have reported this quarter. But it seems more pronounced with Sovereign.

The pricing model seems to be somewhat questionable here. People will ask why they need to spend that much money for a box.

The price seems on the high side, especially when taking the growth of this company into account.

To protect our freedoms, it seems like we're going to relinquish some of our freedoms for a short period of time.

To power the country by building 186,000 fifty-story wind turbines - and running 19,000 miles of new transmission lines - just seems impractical and preposterous compared to the idea of building a hundred new nuclear facilities primarily on the sites we already have.

We were certainly surprised. It seems the worse it gets, the more people trade.

When you consider that our technology has advanced from the first telephones to smart phones in roughly a century, it's easy to understand why it seems like tomorrow is arriving faster than it ever did.

When you coach against him, you feel like he's getting all the calls because he's working the refs so hard. It seems like he's always whining to the refs and falling on the ground, and he's got the clock operator in his back pocket. But it's fun to play and coach against Coach Marcum's team, because you know it's going to be a battle.

When we started the season, even though we were losing, I thought we were making progress. Now, it seems like we're not making progress. It's hard to put a positive spin on it.

The place seems to exude family fun and a relaxed atmosphere.

The place of residency seems to determine more likely the place of practice than the place of medical education.

There are times where it seems like we don't have enough people to do what needs to be done, and sometimes it seems that CERT performs that. There are several different roles for them to play in an emergency situation, and we're always looking to expand that and involve these people as much as we can throughout the year.

There are times when parenthood seems nothing but feeding the mouth that bites you.

There are times to cultivate and create, when you nurture your world and give birth to new ideas and ventures. There are times of flourishing and abundance, when life feels in full bloom, energized and expanding. And there are times of fruition, when things come to an end. They have reached their climax and must be harvested before they begin to fade. And finally of course, there are times that are cold, and cutting and empty, times when the spring of new beginnings seems like a distant dream. Those rhythms in life are natural events. They weave into one another as day follows night, bringing, not messages of hope and fear, but messages of how things are.

We're seeing tremendous pressure at all levels to get ready for an imminent hurricane season, but on the federal level it seems frantic, not thoughtful.

We're competing really hard. At the beginning of the year it seems we were getting blown out a lot. Now we're in every game. We know that we can win every game. It's just a matter of finishing off strong.

We're just going to be targeting those areas where crime seems to be most rampant and do everything under the sun to change the environment so it's no longer attractive to those preying on the community.

Like a graceful vase, a cat, even when motionless, seems to flow.

Maintenance seems to be extremely high and there are spec changes in the United States. It's not that there are absolute shortages of products, but there is a concern about how much there is going to be.

Making an outrageous statement, unless she can prove it, seems to me that she's trying to change the headlines.

Madrid was a big wake-up call to us, yet we did relatively little. It really seems to me a matter of time before it happens in our country -- in part because it's so easy to do.

Life coaching has received a lot of press recently; it seems you can hardly pick up a newspaper or magazine without reading a quote from a life coach.

Life has no meaning any more does it? The wine has no taste, the food sickens you, there seems no reason for any of it, does there? But what if I could give it back to you. Pluck out the pain, and give you another life, one you could never imagine, and it would be for all time. And sickness and death could never touch you again. Don't be afraid, I'm going to give you the choice, I, never, had.

Levee failure is not an 'if', it's a 'when'. There seems to be a willingness to tolerate the human suffering and property loss that might come with these events.

Let's say you find (one) who can really play the game and deliver bone-crunching checks and fight with the best of them. If you can find a guy who can do that, you would definitely go after him. But it seems the heavyweights are going by the wayside.

Let's Roll. We can't forget what brought us together and what we're living for, what makes us who we are, even though to protect freedom it seems that we're going to have to relinquish some of our freedoms for a short period of time.

Lenders now feel the agenda has changed, with inquiries looking at virtually every source of income. Some aspect of these inquiries appears to be based upon an assumption of excess profitability. This seems dubious when you look at the numbers.

Let the stuff where it is -- it seems like they might have a pretty good handle on the water now -- and take care of it right here.

Losing is hard, and they are kids. As we get older, we have a different perspective about these things. Sometimes in the moment, the match seems more significant and important than it really is.

Looks like a people plan as opposed to a business plan. The emphasis seems to be improving peoples lives by improving social infrastructure. I don't know if there are enough goodies to have an impact on financial markets although if the whole country feels better it would be good for markets.

Layoffs are still very high, and the economy seems to be showing little sign of pulling out of the doldrums, ... These lower cuts may just mean that we aren't seeing any further dips right now -- that we're just in this kind of steady, low-wattage kind of state.

Last year we expanded. But to do it in the time frame we have got and do it right? This seems to be the right amount.

Late-19th-century America, with all its chaotic change and immense potential, seems to have been the perfect place to become not someone else, but someone new.

Lee had an injection on Friday and he won't be in until tomorrow. Dennis seems to be a bit better, but we'll take a closer look at him later in the week, while Jon probably needs a couple of days treatment and could probably do with the rest.

Less than 10 years ago, Delray was home to several blues and jazz clubs. We thought since we have this brand-new venue, and jazz seems to be a musical voice in the city, we'd try to give the people who appreciate that sort of music a chance to celebrate that music at the library.

Many of the most successful coaches and managers have come from players who never reached the highest level. The one exception seems to be basketball, where many of the greatest stars at least tried to coach a team.

Many people have been able to return to their homes. We expect to spend most of today assessing damage, but it seems like it was not as bad as we expected.

Many retailers use their television advertising to entertain consumers as a way of engaging them but it doesn't appear that it is translating into influence to shop as far as shoppers are concerned. Based on the consumer's choice of media of influence, it seems that consumers want information and direction. Engaging commercials on TV appear not to have impact on the cognitive domain called purchasing.

Many U.S. organizations believe that I am being barred from the country not because of my actions but because of my ideas. The conclusion seems inescapable.

Many users will now delete an e-mail attachment that seems suspicious rather than open it up, so it has become more difficult for viruses to spread quickly.

Many countries are preparing for the future economy, and this country seems to be trying to erect new barriers to making us more competitive.

Many barriers have been broken down in female employment but it seems that for whatever reason, when it comes to computing, girls are deciding to stand back.
