Areas Quotes
Obviously, it is very comforting to know that David McKee returns, ... Having David back gives us a real solid base to build our team around. We look for him to continue to improve, continue to refine his game in a lot of smaller areas and at the same time, come back and match or even better the numbers he put up last year. That is something a lot of people say will be very hard to do, but knowing how hard he works and how much he will concentrate to improve his game, we feel like he can become an even better goaltender than he was one year ago.

Bills Quotes
I wish the Legislature would give us the latitude to take these raises at a later date or take a smaller amount. It really puts the monkey on our backs. If we don't take the raise, we run the risk of not receiving another one for four or five years. But if we take them, there's always going to be this perception from the public that we're stuffing our pockets full of money when we have bills to pay.

Athletes Quotes
I have empathy for these kids because I've been in their shoes. I heard all the comments at school, and I was the guy who was ignored on offense during the game, didn't get the ball as often as smaller players, and was criticized the most. We've drawn on that life experience to design a program that helps our big athletes be more confident, accountable and aware of their big bodies and the powers they hold within.

Care Quotes
I don't care if it's the two, but I like playing out on the floor, ... I'm not big and bulky so I like being able to run and move. I've always said that those big guys have to catch me. If a guy is 270 pounds, he's going to have a hard time catching me. Then, I feel like I'm quick enough to stay with the smaller guards so I like being out there.

Access Quotes
Basically this merger will mean even less competition for broadband Internet, and frankly that makes a Net neutrality requirement even more imperative. If there was real competition in the provision of high-speed Internet access we might not be having this conversation, but now the world has gotten even smaller than it was before.
-
Air Quotes
Base station component makers are being asked to make cheaper components that last as long or longer than previous versions, and to develop them when the unit volumes required aren't fully known, because demand for base stations isn't known. Base stations continue to grow more dense, with more channels per card and smaller overall form-factors, while consuming less total power and requiring less air conditioning, or no air conditioning in many cases.
-
Action Quotes
I can tell you that this year, we've actually decided to go smaller with the story line as compared to last season. We'll see a collision between Jack's former self and his current self. And he'll be at the center of the action as opposed to on the outside looking in as he has the past few seasons.

Additional Quotes
If a 92-page tax swap is a necessary prerequisite for accomplishing what the public really wants the Legislature to do, then we've completed it. Now we must get started on the required course work for this session providing additional funds to public schools so that they have the resources to fully fund existing proven programs, providing teachers with a pay raise, and providing smaller classes and up-to-date technology.

Against Quotes
For us this was very big because everybody saw Cuba as a smaller team. They thought of the other teams, greater teams, bigger teams, powerful. They thought we could never win against Venezuela, that we did not have any possibility or any chances. And here you have it. We know how to play under pressure.

Argue Quotes
For the smaller services, the challenge is to make some kind of a case for why people would want to stay with them, ... They can argue today that they are more mature and they can offer more tools. This isn't a death knell for the smaller services, but this is a door slamming for them growing more.
-
Amount Quotes
For those that have fixed exchange-rate regimes, you will need a greater amount of foreign reserves. That's the case in Belize, it's the case in the Eastern Caribbean zone and it's also the case in Barbados. In those cases, the level of reserve coverage is one of credit weakness. Where you have a bit more flexibility in the exchange rate ? for instance, Jamaica ? you would require a smaller amount of international reserves.
-
Alter Quotes
If we wish to preserve the diversity of natural ecosystem processes, we must preserve the larger ecosystems where the longest food chains are found, ... As ecosystem size decreases (e.g., through the fragmentation of forest patches), we may see the loss of large, often rare, top predators. Those top predators that can survive in smaller ecosystems will likely feed lower in the food chain, which may alter the feeding relations and community structure through out the food web.

Alter Quotes
If the City Council does not radically alter the trend in housing, then Davis in 2020 will become a much more exclusive community and ... a larger percentage of its workforce than today will be living elsewhere. ... And that, in particular, if we do not require a good portion of the new houses to be permanently affordable, then while we may have smaller homes, they will be very expensive homes.
-
Bad Quotes
He had good range, ... much farther than a smaller person like him should have had. Because he wasn't as big as most players, he had to learn more about the game, too. He always seemed to make the right pass and never seemed to take a bad shot. And I'll tell you, he was a god in San Francisco's Chinatown.

Areas Quotes
There is a huge ethnic market. The increase in the ethnic market for goats has been due to the increase of immigrants coming from places where goat meat was the primary meat staple. The other primary meat staple from most of these areas was sheep. So the ethnic demand has increased there, too. There's more growth (in sheep) because the sheep industry started out smaller (than goats) so it's been a more rapid growth, a kind of a catch up situation." ()

Against Quotes
He's a different type of back than what we see over here. In the Pac-10 we have smaller guys who are quicker and shiftier. He's a real straight-ahead kind of guy, real fast with a great combination of size and speed. I like playing against him. It's fun tackling a guy who's bigger. It makes for a bigger hit and he packs a punch.
-
Ability Quotes
The packaged food manufacturers' ability to raise and maintain prices to offset rising commodity costs will be a key test of the shifting of power to the retailer. Moreover, escalating costs have negatively impacted the small and midsize food companies more than their larger counterparts due to the smaller companies' higher proportion of fixed-costs and limited economies of scale.

Academics Quotes
John Carroll started talking to me, so I kept talking with their coach and I applied there. The coach said, 'I want you over here next year.' It's a smaller program with high academics and a good wrestling program. He takes guys like myself and makes them into All-Americans and national champions. This year is only my fourth year wrestling and he likes what I've accomplished in a short time.
