Beginning Quotes
Ford is trading at eight times earnings while DaimlerChrysler is at 12 times earnings. We think Ford has a strong and stable management team while we're seeing turmoil at DaimlerChrysler. And Ford is increasingly investing in products that make a lot of money, whereas Daimler is beginning to try to make vehicles that don't tend to make a lot of money.
-
Attached Quotes
For comparison, there was a nation over there and all they had was a grappling hook and a line, ... When they found something they would have to drag it to see if it would blow up. Whereas at the other end of the spectrum, we had the remote control robot that could take pictures and has all kinds of weapons attached to keep the operator himself from having to touch it.
-
Active Quotes
For Active Explorers, 52% say internet advertising and 49% say email advertising are the most influential media for making a purchase of a car, whereas Independents say that word of mouth, reading an article about the product or TV are the most influential. Active Explorers also use media in different day parts and engage in simultaneous media use differently than Independents.
-
Businesses Quotes
It shouldn't come as any surprise that ING is interested in buying the financial services and international business. I think the surprising thing is that Aetna would consider selling the financial services and international businesses because it generates a huge tax liability for them, whereas they could have done a deal two months ago that was tax positive.
-
Bounds Quotes
Students have less rights. They can be drug tested and can be searched on reasonable suspicions. Whereas with adults, you have to have a warrant signed by a judge or probable cause. The consent degree in this case will hold the police to a higher standard, which will help prevent them from overreaching again. The message it sends to everyone is that you need to be good at self-governance and don't overreach the bounds because you will be held accountable.
-
Alter Quotes
It was good to come out there defensively and stop them and it also gave our offense confidence that they can go out and do what they need to do and execute the game plan they came into the game with. Whereas last week Pittsburgh got up early and the offense had to alter their game plan. This week they just stuck with it. They drove and pounded it.
-
Areas Quotes
This is a very interesting point, so what we ended up doing for exactly that reason was we collected sand in areas that had no contact with sewage. What we found was the fecal bacteria count in that sand was actually zero, whereas in areas that was actually exposed to the sewage we were finding incredibly high fecal bacteria densities.
-
Almost Quotes
Once a Marine, always a Marine. The challenge and the camaraderie with players and coaches, no one experiences anything like that but in team sports, especially football. It's almost like a chemical dependency. Whereas losses used to destroy them, now they have the wisdom to be able to move on easier.
-
Billion Quotes
Their smaller size gives them less diversification, less geographic spread. So you have a little bit more risk with them. Those companies are about $16 billion market cap companies, whereas BP Amoco is a $200 billion company. So you can compare BP Amoco to a GE in terms of its size and diversification.
-
Among Quotes
I meet people from really grand backgrounds who had horrible parents who took no interest in them, whereas I'm a working-class boy from Deptford who was worshipped by all my rellies. Everybody in my extended family helped to raise me, and I realise now how lucky I was to grow up among kind folk.
-
Couple Quotes
I'm actually in the process of studying film and trying to tweak a couple of things in my game. Whereas I may have gone two dribbles and tried to go all the way to the bucket, I may try to go two dribbles and try to pull. The difference from being a good player and a great player is consistency, so that's something I want to work on.
-
Best Quotes
In Formula One, the car can make a difference in a way that a driver cannot. Whereas Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna spent their early seasons in second-rate machinery, Hamilton walked into the equal best car on the grid. His first season none the less has, by any standards, been extraordinary.
-
Approach Quotes
In boys, it's ingrained in their heads that to dunk is just the highlight of basketball, whereas for girls, our shooting technique, making baskets and free throws is taught more. It's such a sexist approach to the sport sometime. Men aren't encouraging their little girls to try to work on their hops. They're encouraging them to work on their jump shots and the fundamentals of the game.
-
Best Quotes
I'm into the old-school mode of production ? getting the right people to make the best product, ... That's what Quincy Jones would do: Get the right people to do everything, like on Off the Wall for Michael Jackson. Tim is a super musician, whereas I've never had training or anything. So coming from that point of view, I may play a chord the wrong way, but it really doesn't matter if it's wrong or right.
-
Liked Quotes
I never really liked weightlifting because there is no problem solving, whereas when I am fighting, I am trying to solve a problem, so I don't think about being tired. I box, wrestle, do jujitsu, run up sand dunes; every single day is something different so that I am mentally engaged. That's what makes me want to train longer.
-
Ahead Quotes
If you look at why we failed, three things stand out. The bar has been lifted and while we haven't slipped back the others have gone ahead quicker. There's a question around the shooting because clearly we haven't delivered. And there's a breadth and depth issue. We tend to have events where we've one dominant athlete, whereas Australia, England and even the Scots have two or three.
-
Earnings Quotes
In the very short term, you are seeing a response to the economic news, and that can give the market some buoyancy. Whereas in September and October, the above-consensus earnings enabled the market to perform better than it traditionally has, in November the focus switches to the economy.
-
Among Quotes
I just read an article that cocaine is back among certain groups, Wall Street people and so forth. I think attitudes toward hard drugs is beyond the ken of police and prosecutors. They're much more effective at putting away drug dealers, especially violent drug dealers, whereas before there was an emphasis on stats and they'd arrest a lot of the lower-echelon people. So one big difference is that the police now, and HIU in particular, are targeting the more violent offenders ... and getting the message out.
-
Apparel Quotes
Investors should be excited about teen apparel stocks because most of the merchants in that space are competing for a huge $70 billion pie. Whereas the overall retail apparel space is suffering from overcapacity and increasing competition, the teen space is really a niche segment of that pie and has a lot more room to grow.
-
Commercial Quotes
I never understood using Kickstarter for commercial purposes. If you want to raise money for commercial purposes, I think you should give someone a dividend. They make money, then you make money. It should be an investment, whereas I think Kickstarter's true purpose is raising money for things that are in and of themselves justifying.
-
Football Quotes
I don't regret giving up football for acting. I love football and am very proud I played for Morton. But the truth is, I wasn't going to get much higher in football. At the same time, I sensed I could go somewhere in acting. I'm 28, which is young for acting, whereas in football I'd now be near the end of my career.
-
Cast Quotes
If I can iron out my accent, it opens up another world of possible jobs. Whereas if you have that very strong European accent, it leaves you always being cast as the Hungarian maid or the stripper or whatever. I have voice lessons, and my coach has given me different tongue-twisters to rehearse at home.
-
Admission Quotes
I'd heard the first track on the Rufus Wainwright record (Want One), Oh What A World, which is worth the admission fee alone, ... It's just the most audacious thing I've heard in a long time. It's on a sort of Pet Sounds level. It's refreshing to hear that kind of thing. So Marius' philosophy is very much 'more is more,' whereas mine is 'less is more.'
-
Additional Quotes
For the players, it will allow them to get an opportunity for playing time that didn't exist under the older system. For the teams, it provides them additional flexibility. It allows them to monitor and evaluate players in a competitive situation, whereas before those players were relegated to a practice situation.
-
Athletes Quotes
You usually see guys make more money in endorsements as they get older even if their skills are diminishing. By then they're known quantities, not just to the public but to corporations. These corporations are very risk-averse, and they like to know that they can trust these guys. Athletes who have already had long careers without scandals are safer, whereas a 23-year-old is seen as more likely to get into trouble.
-
People Quotes
YouTube is so quick and so instant, and you make a video, and you can upload it the same day, whereas with a book, you have to go through a lot of time and a lot of people and a lot of processes. So it was weird to sit down and work with other people on projects, because I'm so independent with YouTube.
-
Above Quotes
All year long, it's been a tale of two markets. The momentum on the Dow is declining, and the Dow last week failed at its 200-day moving average, which is declining, two things that are negative for the Dow and for 'old economy' stocks. Whereas on the Nasdaq, since the big correction that we had, the Nasdaq momentum is now rising, and it traded back above its 200-day moving average, which is still rising. Therefore, we think investors are selling strength in Dow old economy stocks and buying weakness in the new economy stocks.
-
Access Quotes
The geographic location offers us more access to public transportation. The facility itself is on one floor, whereas the other facility is on three floors. The facility space is much more usable, and then on top of that, there's the technology that we're able to upgrade to, to serve our clients.
-
Defending Quotes
The distinctive feature of my family was intolerance of sensitivity and emotion - 'Everything's great, it all has to be great all the time and why do you have to spoil it?' Whereas probably the most fundamental and important thing to me has been defending my right to tell the truth about how I feel.
