Stayed Quotations | Page 4

I got a job as an auto mechanic, and I would have stayed in that narrow kind of life if I hadn't discovered art. Music changed me completely.

If we stayed focused and disciplined, we should do well.

If Tim had stayed healthy, I think ultimately he would have been successful (in Cleveland).

If the golf ball and (club) technology had never changed, it all would've stayed the same (here). I don't think any of the golf-course changes would've been necessary.

If Steve would have stayed around until the end of the season, I think it would have been harder to get a deal done.

He's had better work habits in practice. I've stayed on his tail probably harder than anybody on my team. I do expect a great deal out of him.

He's had a very good spring. He's stayed healthy. He's hungry to learn the position. His enthusiasm is good. He's been a really good leader, and that's something the jury was kind of out on ? his ability to lead a team.

He was a man who upheld the tradition of the job, so having all the members there for him was truly a tribute. As sad as it was, it was a fitting tribute to him. It's the way he should have gone out. He stayed true to the department and the department stayed true to him. There were guys there who didn't even know him, but they were there to pay tribute.

I always liked having a good time. I got into this business because I got fired from any job I ever had because I stayed out late playing music.

He worked from 8:30 to 5 p.m., ... Some of us weren't so smart and stayed till 10.

He wondered what the mans name was and where he came from; and if he was really evil at heart, or what lies or threats had lead him on the long march from his home; and if he would not really have rather stayed there in peace

He had a real good fastball and good location. He stayed primarily with his fastball.

He had a pretty nice fastball and he was locating it pretty good and they just stayed with it all night. It was kind of an unusually pitched game. You don't see a guy use primary fastballs but he was locating where he wanted and they stayed with it and he did a nice job.

He had three pitches going today and he was throwing them all for strikes. I was really pleased with the way he stayed ahead in the count.

He has long stayed out of energy, and it's been the leading category. That really held the fund back, but more recently energy hasn't been a great place to be.

He had food poisoning at 2 a.m. Monday and was put on the drip in the morning. He has stayed back in his hotel room today so that he could rest and recover, and bat if needed later on Tuesday.

He did a great job in, by far, one of the toughest weight classes here. There were four returning state qualifiers. ... He gave up the first takedown early in each of his matches, which is very unusual, but in all the matches he stayed poised. He's very poised on the mat. It speaks to his experience.

He did a good job of sticking with it. He scored in bunches even when he wasn't getting as many touches as he would like. He stayed focused out there and composed. That's what an All-America does. You can't take anything away from him. He's a veteran that stuck with it.

He did a good job - he did exactly what he should have done. He did his best to describe his location and then he stayed calm, found shelter and frequently called in to report if he could hear or see rescue vehicles.

He did things I believe the right way. He stayed with his community, and it certainly didn't hurt him.

He did some straight-line running (Monday). He threw the ball some. He took some easy drops. So it's not like this guy is not at a point where he can't start doing some things. Now, I didn't see all that. I'm just going on what the trainer and the people doing the rehab with him did. But he was there early and stayed late and worked hard. We were pleased with what he did.

He has stayed with me, ... I haven't been able to stop thinking about this child.

He had always stayed in one place, right there in front of the fireplace, just playing. That first day, I put him in that spot and went to the kitchen for a minute and heard Terry call.

He had a good attitude all year long. He never got too high or too low. He stayed on an even keel. He faced a lot of shots and still had an excellent save percentage. He did an excellent job.

He had a fantastic camp and really caught the attention of the big league coaches. He stayed in camp longer than some guys who were ahead of him on the depth chart. That went a long way to increasing his confidence going into the year.

He had a couple (of) injuries early in his career that kept him from growing at a normal pace. But soon as he stayed healthy, which he has, he just really became a fine defensive lineman.

He got a lot of groundball double plays and he stayed away from the guys that could possibly hurt him, ... He's seemed like he tries to get you to chase a little bit and tonight, he was locating real well.

He felt good, he was throwing well. We stayed with him.

He gave me a lot of encouragement as a young man, as a baseball pitcher, and he has stayed in touch with me over the years up until the present time.

He looked good out there. He stayed strong after that first inning and pitched well for us.

He made us hit the ball. He kept it low and made us hit it on the ground. For the most part, he stayed ahead of us.

He needs to stay mentally strong. Kevin has driven in some big runs but he lets some situations get away that he needs to pick up. He's had some physical challenges but he stayed on the field.

He needed a place to practice so someone from those two families told him to come to Mt. Pleasant. They showered at the armory on Eagle Street and stayed at the National Hotel on Main Street.

He (Morales) said he did not have a girlfriend. He said he stayed up there (in New York) Christmas because of money and he would take a vacation in the summer and be able to stay longer when he returned to De Queen.

He might just be the ideal type for that race. He stayed two miles, five furlongs very well when winning at Cheltenham back in December.

He might just be the ideal type for that race. He stayed two miles and five furlongs very well at Cheltenham in December, and if he could hack along in the National he might be able to get home.

We talked all week about how we needed to come out strong and focused. They did that, and they stayed that way throughout the entire game.

We took daggers early, but we knew if we stayed with it, we would come back. We just kept going at them, kept fighting, and believed in each other.

We talked a lot going into tonight about how one loss to Oxford was not going to end our playoff hopes. They stayed focus on the task at hand and kept playing until the job was finished.

We're on a mission to win the West and get homecourt advantage and every four-minute stretch is important to us. We stayed focused tonight.

We're obviously very pleased that the District Court rejected the government's arguments and stayed the entire judgment.

When he stayed back this year it wasn't just to have fun. It was to put his signature on his work.

What I liked was the way the kids stayed together and kept working throughout the entire game. What I didn't like was that we made some mental errors. But our kids tried hard, and it's one of those things. We capitalized on some mistakes by Nogales, and the kids got lucky. Between those things, we pulled out the win.

We've faced some adversity along the way. The guys have stayed together and continued to work. I'm proud of the way they found a way to win.

We survived the first ten minutes where they really dominated play. The first and last minutes of nay emotionally charged game like this are crucial and our guys stayed strong.

We suggested they only count kids who started as a freshman at the school and stayed until they were seniors to graduate.

We thought we were getting ice but they only sent water. Some people have turned around but many have stayed in line for the water.

When I played, we all stayed in the same complex.

We are extremely happy to have someone of his ability and expertise join us. He brings not only his talent, but also his knowledge and work ethic. He still has a burning desire to play and he's showed that he's stayed in excellent physical condition.

Togetherness. Just the fact that these guys have stuck together. They've stayed with each other for so long, they've learned what it takes to win over the years.

What would happen to me if I stayed at Madrid? How much would I miss European football if I signed for Newcastle?

He (Reed) had a great night. He kept his composure throughout the game and stayed focused. Early things weren't quite going his way, but he stayed within himself and then eventually things started to open up for him and good things happened. His teammates got him the ball and there is no way he could score those points without his teammates making that effort to get him the basketball.

(Hawley) has a great ball club. They started four seniors and they're rated third in the section. We came out and played hard and we stayed as close as we could with them. I thought our girls put in a good effort.

Had I not gone to Japan in 1986, had I stayed home and majored in English literature as I'd intended to do, I might indeed have become an investment banker, an outcome that perhaps would have proved a more severe blow to the health of the U.S. economy than to the history of the novel.

He's a great back. Just look at the number of touches he gets a game. Not only from the running back position, but from screens and passes and you name it. I wished he would have stayed at Colorado.

Her family was really supportive. The athletes were really concerned. They stayed behind her. These guys train together every day. It's an incredible accomplishment for her to skate in an individual event.

He said he didn't hear the rescuers. They had just stayed inside, waiting for help.

He should have stayed at home and had people bring the stuff people need. We've had enough press conferences. Instead of flying around for picture opportunities, he should have his butt up in Washington sending people to take care of business.

He should have been locked up or stayed in the hospital.

He's got that calmness. You can just tell. He wasn't rattled throughout the whole course of that game. And we got a couple interceptions. He had some bad plays. But he stayed right in there.

History is not a long series of centuries in which men did all the interesting/important things and women stayed home and twiddled their thumbs in between pushing out babies, making soup and dying in childbirth.

He's going to be something very, very special. Right now, he is a terrific college basketball player, not the great, great dominating college basketball player that he would be if he stayed in college. I don't think the circumstances are going to allow it to come, unfortunately. I just think that's the way it is.

He's been outstanding since he's been here. He's focused. He came out tonight, located his fastball well, stayed ahead of hitters, kept the ball down, changed speeds when he needed to and showed a nice curveball, something he hadn't thrown too much before.

He's done everything we've asked him to do. He's adjusted, changed every technique. He's gone in a completely different direction. He's not scared to try something new. And he's stayed with it. And he's progressed daily.

When they said the storm was coming, I barricaded myself in the house and prayed. Many people in my neighborhood stayed because they didn't have resources. We did not stay because we wanted to be looters or martyrs. We stayed because we had to.

We made up our minds what we wanted out of auto racing, and we stayed with it. You look at where he's at, and at the end of the day he was true to his course.

We made key stops and key baskets and stayed focused throughout the game.

How will we handle that close ballgame? ... How are we going to handle being down 21 points at halftime to Boise State? Is everybody going to push the panic button, or can we stayed poised ... ?

(Hume) had opportunities to close out the first set. But he stayed on task. It's not always too easy to lose a first set like that.

He was ducking down, and he kind of stayed moving,

He was in an off-side position and he stayed in an off-side position. It is not as if he came back from behind the defenders. It should not have been allowed. It is as simple as that. If I was the manager of the Czech Republic I would've been very disappointed.

He was great. He stayed sharp and made some big saves when we needed them, especially on a couple of their power plays.

He was really hitting the ball clean and big and making me feel like I was a step behind on all of my shots, ... ... It was quality tennis and the tennis stayed pretty high throughout.

He was more patient. The guys stayed calm, didn't take chances. We just did our job. We didn't get caught up in trying to stop the running back, the quarterback or the receivers, we just played defense.

He was making 30-footers. I wanted to put the subs in, but they just stayed around. It seemed like the clock moved in slow motion.

He was loading Christmas trees. It struck me how college and football is so different from grinding it out in the real world. He had stayed in touch, and I knew that he had qualified. I was proud of him. I could tell by his voice that he was excited. He said, 'Coach, I can't wait to get started.' He had missed football.

I almost wish we could have stayed around till tomorrow. I'd love to see what the papers are gonna say about us now.

I aimed it right outside the right upright because (the wind) was going hard left. It just stayed out there.

I actually went to drama school at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music & Drama in Glasgow, so I stayed in my home town the whole time. However, I see more of my friends now than I did then. It's strange.

I actually talked with Peter when I was scouting locations. We stayed up until 2 in the morning.

I actually studied in college, for the three semesters that I stayed in school, I don't recommend that, but I studied theater, and in high school I was involved in the drama department.

He was a good kid. Stayed to himself. Did his job. Did a real good job.

He didn't want her to be around her friends. I used to call her everyday until she said 'don't, because he checks the caller ID at lunch.' I just stayed away because I didn't want to hurt her feelings.

He did everything right. Rado would get a gap on Seth by running low in a turn, but Seth knew better than to drop low with him. He stayed high, where he could ride the bank fastest, and just waited until he could pass him.

He did a very nice job. He had a pretty nice fastball and was locating it pretty well, and they just stayed with it all night long. It was kind of an unusually pitched game. You don't see a guy use primarily fastballs. He had a little life on it.

He didn't just played catch with me, he taught me technique and even some plays when I was like 5 years old. By the time I started playing football on a team around 8 years old, I was way ahead of everyone else. I kept pushing myself to get better because I loved the game and loved winning, so I pretty much always stayed one step ahead of everyone else.

He deserves it. He really does. He's worked so hard. He stayed with us. People told him to retire. Now look at him. Nobody's saying to retire and no more Joe must go Web sites. None of that. I'm just so happy for him.

He just stayed up every time. He had the respect of the gym.

He just stayed there . . . no one looked at him to see if he was okay.

He kind of set the curve on weekly newspapers and stayed on top of innovations in the newspaper business.

Greg chose bottom to start the period. I stepped into a turk and stayed there.

Guys just stayed with it and executed. We didn't execute down the stretch and came into overtime and just executed everything we tried to run . . . Guys are in shape. We've been running a lot in practice and preseason, so that was our goal, to come out and try to wear them down.

Hamilton wrestled a smart match and really stayed on the offensive. He really took it to J.C. and got the takedowns when he needed. J.C. is always in the match so it was competitive throughout. Hopefully that's the last time we see J.C. this year.

Grub Street Writers is the reason I've stayed in Boston. I started teaching for Grub back in 1997, when founder Eve Bridburg, a Boston University M.A. alumna, as I am, kindly gave me my first job out of grad school.

There are so many community leaders who came here to go to college and have stayed and given back to the community. Flagler College brought us here.

Kevin threw three picks early, but he stayed the course, ... He's our No. 1 man and he kept the rest of the guys pushing. He didn't let anything get to him.

Just to go in there and hack away at it is the key to that goal. And we stayed with it. It was easy to get frustrated after missing the amount of chances we missed. ... Just keep grinding, keep working.

Just one bad pitch. I tip my hat to J.T. because he hit a good 3-2 changeup. But my slider was not working well today and that's the pitch that beat me. It was supposed to be down to Feliz and it stayed up.

I survived because I never took on big responsibilities in my private life. In the early days, I lived on two or three pounds a week and learned to cook - and I'm a good cook - because I had to. Even when I went on holiday, I stayed in other people's houses.

I talked to Dan Marino. He told me to stay focused and that I'd get butterflies and be nervous and that there would be anxious feelings, but to make sure I stayed under control and not let it get the best of me. He said to enjoy it, have fun, because you never know if it's going to come back.
