Terribly Quotations | Page 4

If each of your time steps is one week long, you are not modeling the stock price terribly well over a one-week time period, because you are saying that there are only two possible outcomes.

I don't think they (SUV buyers) are terribly concerned yet. I'm not sure buyers believe this price increase is permanent.

I don't think the market is terribly worried about inflation but there is an expectation that corporate profits might just struggle a little more.

How these companies sound isn't a terribly good basis for investing right now, ... The fact is that in an incremental cyclical recovery, capital spending will recover at a brisker pace than the overall recovery, and technology spending will recover at a faster rate than capital spending.

I could not be more proud of that defense. Last night (Friday), we played world-class defense and shot terribly and it was kind of more of the same today.

You could, in theory, get a hole-in-one off two banks. It's not terribly complex. I was less worried about the course than the scenery.

This idea that privilege comes with position is something that's terribly antiquated and doesn't belong in a democracy. These are elected officials who chose to serve the public, and the idea of serving the public doesn't include taking gifts from someone who obviously wants something in return.

The idea is to try to get relationships developed because it's my thought that when an athletic director has to hire a major coach, he doesn't have time to really start meeting people. There's the statement made that ADs hire people they know. Well, it's true. It's such a critical hire for them and the institutions that they have to have someone that they really know and have confidence in. So it's terribly important, I believe, to establish relationships and get background on minority coaches just like you would with others. So we took some extra effort to make sure that occurs.

Ah, Scotland. I am three-parts Scottish and terribly proud of it, although maybe we should divide it into eighths, because my two-eighths are Danish and English, the Lumley part. But the bulk of the rest of me is Scottish - and Scottish ministers especially.

The current system is terribly secretive. ... It's over-complicated and it's certainly out of date.

The market is not terribly bullish in the short term because crude inventories are still high.

The market is clearly responding to the drop in consumer confidence. It's hard to be terribly optimistic when it cost you $60 to fill up the car.

The market is always dealing with uncertainty, and this particular piece of uncertainty is not terribly complicated. There will be a President Bush or a President Gore, and neither will have a strong mandate from voters.

The main impetus for being a writer is thinking, 'I could invent another world. I'm not terribly keen on this one.'
