Slightly Quotations | Page 7

It should be thrown, with the wrist and grip set, just like your fastball , slightly off center - with the same velocity and intensity.

It's hard to look at this report and be even more convinced that if housing slows down, there's nothing to replace it in terms of labor income. It leans slightly more to the bearish than the bullish side for the market.

It's a very cheap company in the sense that if you look at multiples on both sales and earnings, it's slightly less than a market multiple, ... For 40 years this company's been near the cutting edge of technology. And more than any other technology company, you're seeing acceleration in earnings.

It's been a very undecided market. When the opened, it entered a slightly softer period, which was nothing more than a result of profit taking after Friday's enthusiastic buying. After that it turned positive as it got closer to the UK opening.

It's been a slightly negative day, but after three good days and three good months, I fail to see how this is going to be a significant problem. It's just a breather today.

Dermatologists often talk about people who seem 'addicted' to the sun people who know it's not good for them to be bronzed all the time, but don't seem able to stop tanning, ... It's interesting that by slightly modifying tools used to identify substance-related disorders, we can see an objective similarity between regular tanning and those disorders.

Dollar/yen is slightly higher, perhaps as a consequence of that, with some of the comments sounding a little bit more hopeful in the sense of them not pushing on the anti-China trade legislation that they've brought to Congress. But we'll have to see what happens when they get back (to the U.S.).

Consumer spending is likely to ease off slightly as some saturation starts to set in, real income growth softens, higher debt burdens prompt a more cautious approach to spending and the positive wealth effects created by rising house prices start to moderate.

Considering everything, I think the picture is a little bit brighter for the second quarter and some of our fears on the economy in context of this soft patch scare are at least slightly alleviated.

You try to overcome this day to day, primarily through communication. They have understood that as much as it hurts, there are things you must slightly turn away from.

The nose on the helicopter hit the ground at an angle slightly less than vertical,

The numbers produced a slightly firmer dollar: they weren't dismal and as a consequence people are taking back some of their short dollar positions.

The numbers look OK. The EPS (earnings per share) is slightly better than what people were expecting due to lower depreciation and lower leavers costs, but trends in the business remain weak.

The numbers look okay. The EPS (earnings per share) is slightly better than what people were expecting due to lower depreciation and lower leavers costs, but trends in the business remain weak.

The numbers came in ahead of expectations and they offered a slightly better third-quarter advertising outlook, but there remains concern over the audience share having declined so dramatically this year.

The numbers are slightly down, but are nothing to be concerned about.

The numbers are lower than we had anticipated, ... but they appear to be up slightly at the beginning of February.

Everybody has lots of books that are slightly used and garden magazines. You used it once and don't need it anymore, but somebody else could use it.

Everybody has basically the same family, it's just reconfigured slightly differently from one to the next.

That's pretty good. It's slightly softer, but it's just a continuation of the trend.

That's really the defensive effort we've been looking for all season. Hopefully, it's a sign of us coming together. It's our first road win and we're at the point in the season where we badly needed it. The kids realized that and showed up with a slightly different mentality then we've had the last couple of games and it showed on the court.

It's still slightly unstable. It does create a potential for isolated and heavy showers, but anything that would occur is expected to be brief.

It's still early to call it a crash. The indices are expected to rebound slightly sometime soon, but this appears to be a long-term correction cycle. It may continue for two years.

It's something I've had before. It slightly swelled up, so I'm getting a little bit of treatment on that.

It's slightly better than expected. Returns on the existing business are good ... But value added by new business doesn't look so good. There was rather much of a drop.

It's not good that they don't have any minorities in the final pool because our research shows there are a lot of qualified minorities out there and available for these types of jobs, but it's slightly less bothersome because New Mexico has had such a good record when it comes to minority administrators.

Eight of the teams believe one interpretation and Ferrari have a slightly different interpretation.

The big X factor is the weather. I would expect to see a slightly lower day if it continues to be pressured by the gas market.

The bigger the crowds get, the more nervous I get. I actually am very comfortable with a half-filled room of people who are slightly disinterested and are irritated at a Barnes & Noble.

The biggest difference is that the Core version is directed to a different population of students. It measures the same types of skills as the advanced version, but the tasks are slightly less complex and there is less of a reading load.

The best start-ups might be considered slightly less extreme kinds of cults. The biggest difference is that cults tend to be fanatically wrong about something important. People at a successful start-up are fanatically right about something those outside it have missed.

Stocks are down slightly because investors are worried about two things,

Stock markets can still rise. Earnings are still growing. Investors shouldn't be worried about slightly slowing earnings growth.

The Bank has chosen to follow a steady course. This is particularly understandable given current mixed economic signals. The slightly less negative recent news from the housing and retail sectors contrasts with increasing pressures on manufacturers from the high cost of fuel and materials. The MPC should stay alert to further weaknesses in the economy and must remain on standby to cut rates over the coming months.

The back hooves are in the same position, the tail is flaring in the same way, the head is identical although the horns are slightly different. One hoof is going through the snow in both cases, while three hooves are visible. And the water scene is virtually identical.

The audience was primarily under 18 (with) slightly more males than females. The film crossed ethnic boundaries very well. Kids loved it and it will be around for a while.

The attacks slightly wounded one person and caused major damage in a building used by money changers, and in another building used by Fatah,

That is where people start doing things that are slightly different to just doing spots and billboards.

Taken together with the buoyancy of the service sector, the manufacturing figures leave us on track for trend GDP growth, or even slightly better, going into this year, which is consistent with the MPC keeping interest rates on hold.

Taken slightly historically, the turning point in the E.U. was actually the Single European Act, the Thatcher/Maastricht-era stuff, which was turning the E.U. into very much a market system.

It was a pretty good day, I think we are just probably slightly ahead,

I've experienced (more times than I like to admit) avoiding slightly uncomfortable conversations with others I should have had on the front end and then endured much more excruciating ones on the back end.

Oil production has been constant or slightly increasing every year since 1999. The last time oil production increased annually was from 1979 to 1985, another period when energy prices were up.

New York is on a grid system, so it's slightly less challenging logistically, but Londoners are more relaxed in their selling approach. With that intense shopping service in New York, it's easy to get carried away and make a wrong purchase. Here, there's a different flow. You are left to explore, and individuality is key.

Not everyone came from the exact same place. While many came from the same general area, each member of the church would have brought with them slightly different traditions from their individual home churches and those were melded into something new here.

It's very quiet and lackluster. I was looking for the markets to come up slightly because of a modest rally in the Deutsche mark-dollar. But even that has started to come down again.

I want to feel I have the energy I will need as an older mother having a younger baby. It's really important that when I'm 51, and my daughter is 10, that I feel I can still run around and do things with her, and feel the energy of a slightly younger woman having their kids at school.

It was a curious experience, ... I felt nothing, and I felt odd feeling nothing. Absolutely no emotion whatsoever. I found him slightly pathetic. He said: 'I have waited a long time for this moment.' I replied: 'Well, you might have sent me a postcard in the meantime.'

It (the jobless rate) is probably at or slightly below the level the Fed is thinking is full employment, so it will strengthen their resolve to lean against inflation pressures. We expect another quarter-point hike in March.

It will be critical given that it is only in the second half that they expect to put though some off their redundancy expenses. But this result was slightly better than the market was looking for.

The volume was slightly higher than we were expecting. And they're passing through costs.

The urban heat-island effect does help to create thunderstorms. But mostly downstream from a city. Rainfall maps across Texas show slightly higher precipitation amounts downstream of most Texas cities, but it's more noticeable with cities the size of Dallas-Fort Worth.

The upward revision results from the slightly lower than previously estimated trade deficit. We've already seen in July data that trade deficit has worsened in the third quarter.

They asked me if I would accept and I felt slightly embarrassed.

They were slightly more dovish than I expected. There is a bit of a conflict between the bank's statement, and the numbers they gave.

They have slightly different strengths, so it's going to be very interesting when they come together.

They have won breathing room for negotiations to take place to maintain a slightly reduced presence.

They've packaged it just slightly different enough so that it's more of a utility vehicle -- a smaller crossover. It represents a much better value than Neon ever did.

There's very little good news to spur buying, but a slightly weaker yen gives support to exporters.

These numbers are slightly dated, but they show that the inventory liquidation period is over, and that (the) drag on the economy is probably behind us.

Again, it is not a good idea to lengthen stride, but use a lighter touch and quicker turnover. You can go faster that way. You might increase your forward lean slightly that will increase your speed.

It's not all 'Jane Eyre' out there. In her sweet, honorable, slightly passive-aggressive way, Jane was as perfect as a protagonist can get while remaining interesting; in fact, she's one of my favorites. But most characters are more morally ambiguous.

It's not at all untypical for multiple groups to form among Christian conservatives or other groups as well. There may be slightly different goals.

'Snowpiercer' is a little bit more experimental, I think, and crafted for a slightly different audience. 'The Giver' is more about teen angst.

Slightly higher inflation says to the Fed they have to remain with a tightening bias. The market is going to remain focused on payrolls at the end of the week. That's likely what is driving dollar strength.

Slightly embarrassing. I'd probably eaten too much dinner.

So core inflation is still rising slightly but doesn't appear to be a problem, and I think this is good news for the Federal Reserve . With energy prices declining it reduces the risk that fuel costs will be passed on to consumers.

At this point we're assessing the damage to the equipment and how we return equipment slightly tilted up back to the track.

The Koreans will move slightly higher in the market and the Chinese will come in and find their place in the sub-Korean market.

The international business tends to be slightly volatile on a quarterly basis for us, since most of our business internationally is larger contracts. Overall, our international orders are down over 15 percent year to date. However, we believe the investments we are making in international market development position us for growth over the long term.

The ISM manufacturing index came in at a decent level in January, just slightly below expectations, but still high enough to suggest that the manufacturing sector is expanding at a steady-as-she-goes pace.

The Federal Reserve raising interest rates earlier this month prompted financial institutions to slightly increase interest checking rates,

The Fed statement is a neutral to slightly friendly development, ... The fact that they maintained neutral directive helps, but doesn't mean they can't tighten again.

The federal government is basically saying that the price of gas could go up slightly through Labor Day weekend. It could be another couple of cents between now and next weekend. Maybe as much as four or five cents.

The Canadian currency is still performing very well especially in the face of a slightly disappointing retail number. The Bank of Canada's meeting next week will be the focus. A rate hike next week is most likely.

I'm going to need to shoot six under to have a chance to win because there are a lot of guys up there but hopefully there will be a bit more breeze to make the course slightly more difficult.

I'm not going to lie, I'm slightly rusty. Every other year I've been able to come out of our sectional with about a month between basketball and tennis and go to the Sports Center and hit with my family or a friend. Now, we've only had a week in between. It's definitely frustrating because I'm not where I want to be with my tennis game.

I'm excited. Slightly disappointed, but not really. If I could have caught a bag like I did the first day, I could have won. That bite was diminishing. It was going away.

I like causing trouble. It's the teddy boy in me. I used to be a teddy boy. Feeling slightly inferior and wanting to cause a bit of bother and get some action going on in the room rather than get bored stiff. Does that make sense?

Increases in oil inventories and a firmer dollar put a dent into gold prices early Tuesday. Gold fell about 1% before recovering slightly and stabilizing.

I like reading biographies because most of them are slightly similar, and it's voyeuristic, looking into someone's life.

I kind of like things slightly out of tune. It makes me feel... intoxicated almost... but in a good way. Like I'm at a carnival in a dream. Not sure that makes sense, but I do have pretty good pitch recognition. I see colors for different key signatures, notes, etc.

improvisation is about finding your own voice. When you prepare a dish, even if you make the same one just moments later, the rabbit loin will be sliced a little bit differently, or the composition will be slightly different.

I'm very much against the notion of the Great Man, the Great Figure who is telling us all how to behave. Writers are just like other people, except slightly more obsessed.

I'm used to thinking a certain way, making my reads and my throws a certain way, routes are run a certain way - now all that is slightly different, ... It's basically the same offense, but there are enough differences that a lot of the things I'm used to doing I have to learn in a different way. That's what takes so much time.

I like what I see. We're up 27 schools from last year and we've balanced the regions a little better. We're using a slightly more challenging lane condition, not as tough as Sport Bowling, but something that's tougher than the normal house shot, and we have some new bowling centers participating.

I like to think I cover over as a slightly over-the-top enthusiast. It is a very exciting sport, after all.

I had 116 yards and it was slightly downwind. I hit a good shot, maybe just a touch too flat. I thought it would have landed shorter than it did, but it landed pin-high.

If you can find a place to rent that's close in quality to something you'd buy, the cost of renting tends to be slightly less.

If you are a 19-year-old woman, there are very specific things that directors and the people in positions of power in the industry - who tend to be older men - are going to want you to be and do. They are not going to want some chatty, difficult, slightly spoilt girl.

If you have a sense of irony or humour, you're usually cut down, as you're usually distorted or misinterpreted. So it does lead to us being slightly more dour and staid and predictable than would otherwise be the case, which I personally find quite frustrating - because if you don't laugh occasionally in my job, you cry most of the time.

If you imagine writing 1,000 words a day, which most journalists do, that would be a very long book a year. I don't manage nearly that... but I have published slightly too much recently.

In the immutability of their surroundings the foreign shores, the foreign faces, the changing immensity of life, glide past, veiled not by a sense of mystery but by a slightly disdainful ignorance; for there is nothing mysterious to a seaman unless it be the sea itself, which is the mistress of his existence and as inscrutable as Destiny.

Intel revenue and earnings per share were in line with our expectations, but consensus for 2001 will be slightly down revenue, which has not occurred since 1986,

In taking aim at the music pirates, Sony succeeded only in shooting itself in the foot. What they did was not intentionally malicious. If anything, it was slightly inept.

In some ways, I'm slightly like a single parent, so I need to be able to provide for my family.

I like this shot. It just has a lot of perspectives in it. It looks sort of festive at first, but then you figure out that there's something slightly ominous about it.

I remember the early meetings leading up to the Good Friday Agreement and the slightly bemused astonishment of all and sundry as, by a mixture of determination, charm and sheer life force, she bowled everyone over,

I'll read a recipe but then decide, 'Well, it's sort of like this, then.' Or I'll go to the fridge and think, 'I'll see what I can put together,' and I'll combine beetroot and sausage and prawns with goat's cheese sprinkled on top and think, 'I like that they're all slightly pink. It looks fine and... actually, it is fine.'

I'll do it very quickly and spontaneously. I expect that it will be slightly strange and bizarre, but catchy at the same time.
