Ten Quotations | Page 4

She was supposed to be back in ten minutes and when she wasn't back in 45 minutes, we began to worry.

She's banged up and she'll be the first to tell you, but she plays her butt off every game. She plays as hard as anyone out there....She's in great shape and as we enter the Big Ten tournament, that's going to be important because she may have to play every game, every minute. She'll rise up to the challenge.

Somebody figured it out / we have 35 million laws trying to enforce Ten Commandments.

Somebody figured it out -- we have 35 million laws trying to enforce Ten Commandments.

Simon Jones bowled exceptionally well in the first innings, so after losing him, the bowlers in the second innings deserve a lot of credit, ... They kept running in on a placid wicket that was really very slow. We had to use all our resources to whittle out those ten wickets and restrict them to a total where we only had to chase 130.

Since those things broke we are 7-2, and five of those wins have come against top 25 opponents. There's a Big Ten title in there, and I think that tells everyone where our energy and focus has been.

Sixteen Hundred Pennsylvania Avenue should follow the example of Ten Downing Street, and focus national attention on this.

Since Sept. 11th, we've provided more than ten billion dollars in funding to states and urban areas for these types of measures.

Since introducing the first automotive destination on the Internet more than ten years ago, we've put a lot of effort into creating a functional, intuitive Web site. We intend to continue applying innovative technology and motivating our talented employees in order to stay ahead of the competition.

Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe.

Most people look better with their clothes ON, and those ten people who don't look better than you, so why bother.

Men are willing to talk about these things in ways that were inconceivable less than ten years ago.

Maybe your anxiety and nerves are different. Every year it seems we're on the brink and not knowing how many games we had to win or in '01 knowing we needed to win all of them to get in. It's a different feeling this year. There's the pressure that we think we're a pretty good basketball team and winning one of the two Big Ten championships is out there.

Megan probably gets to the ball quicker than anyone in our outfield. Offensively she has good instincts and loves to hit with runners on base. Liz became our starting centerfielder by the end of the year last year and became an even better hitter through the fall. She has as good an arm as anyone in the Big Ten in centerfield.

My friend Josh Glenn compiles terrific lists of genre novels from the mid-20th century. His latest is a list of the ten best adventure novels of 1966. Josh also includes the cover art of early editions of the books, which are always much better than the art on newer editions. I want to read every book in this list!

My first was in 1994 and it's ten years ago already. It's been ten years and I'm still around. I won a stage again, like I did last year and the year before.

One pound of learning requires ten pounds of common sense to apply it.

One of our federal judges said, not long ago, that what the American people need is ten per cent of thought and ninety per cent of action.

One dog yelping at nothing will set ten thousand straining at their collars

One of the best ways to motivate consumers to try new products is through sampling. Ten percent responded they 'always' buy new products they sample, and an overwhelming 81 percent of consumers said they 'sometimes' buy new products they sample. Once a consumer tries a new product through sampling, it's more than likely they will add it to their shopping list.

One thing we put on our maps was population in the next ten years. Half of us said there would be a 10-15 percent increase, to about 28,500. The rest of the group said it would be more in the 30,000 to 35,000 range.

My first in, my first break, was I met a director and got to talking with her, and she happened to be casting this movie that she had written. That was ten years ago. That got me to Hollywood. I got paid $700 bucks.

My crew and I airlifted nearly 100 people from the roof of a building and onto a field where ambulances and buses were waiting for them. Ten of those who we rescued couldn't even walk; my crewmen had to carry them.

Morehead State was only averaging about maybe 60 or 63 points a game. Once we scored 70, you knew they were going to have a hard time beating us. We had 70 points with probably ten minutes to go in the game.

Money doesn't always bring happiness. A man with ten million dollars is no happier than a man with nine million dollars.

My heart is in Coventry City now but I do have a twinge. It's a bit like when your dad takes you to a football ground and you grow up supporting another team, you still have a little bit of affection. I played for Burnley for ten years but things have changed and now I'm at Coventry.

My home had ten feet of water and I had nine-foot ceilings. The first month was easy to keep your spirits up, because it was like, this adventure ... But now, we're over two months in and the fun's gone out of it and I just want to go home. I lost a couple of cars and the roof was gone from my house. Both of our drummers, their houses were submerged under water completely. They lost everything.

My grandfather took me and my brother to the roof of his house, ... He took out his rifle and he blew rounds into the sky for ten minutes to celebrate. Then he took his bugle out and he blasted the whole neighborhood with his bugle, he was so thrilled about his son. Then he took us to the circus, and then he took us to the movie 'Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves.'

My grandma actually put me in girdles when I was around nine or ten because I had hips even then, and she didn't want boys to be attracted to me. Having hips meant you were a full-grown woman, and I was too young for that.

No, I live in Algeria, but I often come to Switzerland. I had lived here for ten years, after my quarrels with the Algerian military powers.

Now that which was prepared for me daily was one ox and six choice sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in ten days store of all sorts of wine: yet for all this required not I the bread of the governor, because the bondage was heavy upon this people.

Now you see MAC teams playing a lot of Big Ten teams tough. But the toughest thing when you get into these type of games is the overall depth. Recruiting-wise they still get, most the time, who they want. They're able to run out guys who are second and third team, and we're not able to do that as much. Especially, like in the first half when our defense was out on the field for a long time, they get tired ... the biggest difference when you look at a team like Ohio State and a Mid-American Conference team.

Now, who shall arbitrate? / Ten men love what I hate, / Shun what I follow, slight what I receive; / Ten who in ears and eyes / Match me: we all surmise, / They this thing, and I that: whom shall my soul believe?

Obviously Seven and Ten will be able to show more free-to-air games which I think is very important, and I think they'll be able to take it to a wider audience than Nine on its own.

Nothing is ever easy here. It's nice to walk out of this building (with a win). It's the one place in the Big Ten that I haven't won.

Riding a motorcycle is ten percent hands and feet and ninety percent mind and eyes.

Ride ten thousand days and nights,Till age snow white hairs on thee.

Peter Marshall: In one state, you can deduct $5 from a traffic ticket if you show the officer...what?Paul Lynde: A ten dollar bill.

People who are offended by the Ten Commandments have a deeper problem than the stone that it's written on, I think.

Ninety percent of all politicians give the other ten percent a bad reputation.

Nine times out of ten it is over the Bridge of Sighs that we pass the narrow gulf from youth to manhood. That interval is usually marked by an ill placed or disappointed affection. We recover and we find ourselves a new being. The intellect has become hardened by the fire through which it has passed. The mind profits by the wrecks of every passion, and we may measure our road to wisdom by the sorrows we have undergone.

Nine out of ten time we play this team, the would beat us. But not tonight because tonight is our night, tonight we win.

Nine out of ten people who change their minds are wrong the second time too.

On our second night there, we heard of a ten year old girl being raped and murdered. There was violence there, we heard stories,

One of the most painful things in the Western States and Territories is the extinction of childhood. I have never seen any children - only debased imitations of men and women, cankered by greed and selfishness, and asserting and gaining complete independence of their parents at ten years old.

One of the most delightful parts of being a writer is connecting with people via social media. I devote ten minutes out of every writing hour to Twitter, Facebook, Goodreads, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and other sites. I don't use assistants for that. It's me and all of my friends, fans, readers, and colleagues on the crazyboat.

One of the most competitive battlegrounds for our platform as we face the next five to ten years is the embedded space,

I was ten and a half and my mother saw this little thing in Variety that said they were looking for an Indian boy for The NeverEnding Story.

I worked with him for ten years until he died and it was the most wonderful time of my life.

I was really pleased with the team's performance against Illinois last weekend. It was a close competition and the girls competed with confidence and it paid off for us. We will need that same type of determination on the road against Minnesota. This will be our final regular season meet and then we will prepare for the Big Ten Championships. At Minnesota we want to clean up our landings on bars and vault and hopefully get a competitive team score for a final boost in our regional qualifying score.

If we don't get better in the Big Ten tournament it's going to be hard to get better in the NCAA Tournament.

If we don't act now, if we don't start thinking about what the river's going to look like five years, ten years, 50 years from now, then the opportunity will be gone.

If we know there is enough money in there for nine or ten months, we won't worry too much. They can come back and get more-not all they want, but a large piece of it. So you always have the supplemental as a safety valve.

I got to revisit everything I'd done for the last ten years and I remembered that I just loved doing all that handwork, all that embroidery, anything by hand. It's really extravagant this season.

If they run a promotion and have a real low price, then that's going to lower in the whole area the prices. It doesn't mean that ten miles, twenty miles away it might still be a little bit higher.

I have had the opportunity to work with her for over ten years, and find her a creative and inspiring sales partner and product marketer who really strives to understand her readers.

I didn't really think they were going to score. I just felt it was going to be our day, particularly when Kenny Miller put one over the bar with ten minutes to go. It would have been interesting if they had got one back with 20 minutes to go, but fortunately we stood firm and held out.

I don't even worry about that anymore. .Ê.Ê. Ten years it hasn't happened.

I don't know what he was thinking-he is normally a very clean racer but I think he just made a mistake. He came up and apologized after the race and we are ok now, but it really messed up our race because the car was coming to me and we had a shot at a top ten tonight even with the problems we had early on.

I can honestly say I think we are going to have our best season in ten years. We have a lot of experience coming back and a lot of young kids that are willing to work hard. It's a very strong freshman class.

I can easily come up with ten really iconic stories/trade paperbacks for Superman, Batman, others... name me ten equally big, iconic Wonder Woman stories. Much harder. That ain't the character's fault, that isn't sexism, that's just not servicing the character.

I am excited to bring these six young women to the IU Bloomington campus to help the Hoosiers compete for the Big Ten title. They bring size, speed, skill and a high level of experience. Coupled with their academic prowess and wonderful personalities, they will play a huge role next season.

I am excited about this recruiting class. It is talented and deep on the track and in the field. I expect each of the recruits to make an immediate impact on our team and help us finish near the top of the Big Ten this year. We have a young team, but we are talented and that is what excites me the most.

I always wanted to beat Michigan. When you come into the Big Ten you always want to beat the teams like Michigan and Ohio State. After what happened a couple of years ago, it's really great to get this win.

I am going to get out of this chair, throw it away and walk, ... We are on the threshold of a cure -- maybe in five, seven, eight, ten years.

I am the one that exposed the situation last November. I will get my five minutes of fame in seven to ten days now.

CCF will provide a single unified portal, taking one, two, three, ten or 15 presentation layers and consume them into CCF.

Basically the top ten industries were those that are economically sensitive and are bouncing back from their deeply oversold condition last year as a result of lower interest rates. We do believe the Fed will remain aggressive with its easing interest rate policy but we feel the earnings are going to be pretty bad for the first quarter, so the market is likely to tread water for awhile.

I'm a little disappointed with the effort tonight. This meet was a step back for us because we didn't look like a team in the running for a Big Ten championship. We have a lot of work to do this week in order to prepare for the championships.

I look for our freshmen to contribute a lot in the relays. We also need them to get into the finals in their respective events, to knock other people out of position to score. Some of the younger athletes, like Lauren Scott , Steven Bach and Terrell Thompson , have the ability to do that. At the Big Ten meet, I tell all of our athletes to focus on beating bodies, not on jumping a certain distance or running a certain time. If you focus on beating people, those things will come.

I live my life a quarter mile at a time.For those ten seconds or least I'm free nothing else matter

I love dancing and practiced ballet for ten years until I realized I wouldn't make it professionally - then I started taking salsa classes. I learned to dance samba in Rio and Salvador when I lived in Brazil.

I feel like every team in the Big Ten wants to kick the other's butt. So whenever you come into a game, it's war.

I feel like we worked hard all season, whatever the committee decides they decide. We stayed focused, we think the Big Ten title helped.

I can tell if someone is talking to me because I'm on ""Friends"" or cause they just think I'm neat. You know I don't think I've ever spent more than five or ten minutes with somebody who was ogling me because they recognized me from the show.

I can?t put myself in that situation. New Yorkers would chase me all over New York State. Ten or $12 million (per year) ... what?s the difference?

If one person in a group of ten is missing the tip of his little finger, I will notice it almost immediately. This extreme attention to visual detail is not a virtue, just a fact of my person. It happens seemingly involuntarily and strikes me as neither good nor bad.

Getting these three wins puts a staple on the fact that we're a different team. But these were three wins we were supposed to have, and the Big Ten is a whole different season in itself. We're starting over now.

Getting into Sundance is a certain sort of passport to a level of anxiety I've never experienced, even having had a baby in the NICU for a week. For about ten minutes, you're a world-class director. Then you become an entry-level, harried, low level concierge with absolutely no juice.

Gil didn't know us well, which was good. It made us step up and really make an effort. We had only made albums with one person in ten years. It helped to have an outside perspective.

From an early age, I knew I would become a scientist. It may have been my brother Sam's doing. He interested me in the laws of falling bodies when I was ten and helped my father equip a basement chemistry lab for me when I was fifteen. I became skilled in the synthesis of selenium halides.

From every blush that kindles in thy cheeks, Ten thousand little loves and graces spring To revel in the roses.

From where we're standing to the house was about ten feet. I'd say nine or ten feet of debris. 'Cause we were climbing close to the knot on that tree up there.

I don't think a generalist firm can move into financial services because it's hard to find the valuable startups without having worked in the field for ten years.

If all of the sudden there are ten people living next door and five bedrooms and the village code says there only has to be one parking space for a one family house and there are ten cars, then it?s definitely a concern of mine." ()

I don't want Indian youngsters to go through what I experienced, hunting for sponsorships and trying to find my way up. Ten years ago, most people would have laughed at the thought of an Indian making it to Formula 1. But I've changed that and I believe I've paved the way for Indian youngsters. We're a country of a billion people and I'm sure a lot more racing talent can be found here.

I don't understand why he cannot spend ten minutes of his time to talk to somebody whose life he has devastated.

I expect 70-80% of the next ten years to generate good job offers for India's best institutes.

I exercise every morning, no matter what. Sometimes it's tough to do right when you get off the plane, but after ten minutes you start sweating, and you always feel better.

God help me. I'm so tired. I need my sleep. I make no bones about it. I need eight hours a day, and at least ten at night. . . .

For me to have that opportunity to coach a young lady that talented, that doesn't happen very often. When you have a kid that's going to play in the Big Ten next year, with that comes high expectations for the team. She brought high intensity to a group that was already pretty intense, and lifted our play to where we were one of the better teams in state over last two years.

I got a little girl, she's 4-years-old. Ten years from now, when she asks me about the Chicago Bears, I'll tell her about a championship, and I'll tell her about great teams, and great teammates and great coaches. But the first thing I'll tell her about is Walter Payton.

If ten people get some information out of it, and it helps one person, then it makes the whole night.

If the builder is going to try and resell in a couple of years, he is not going to build a slum. Ten years ago, affordable housing accounted for 80 percent of the market; today, it's only 5 percent. We need affordable housing. And this is going to be a way to get people into housing affordably.
