Mike Young Quotations

Many investors in the United States will look abroad (next year) on concerns that their own market is overvalued, ... The general feeling is that they've done very well in the U.S., so their upside is more limited.

She and Lloyd never made it back home.

Political honeymoons have a way of ending with a vengeance. This poll reflects that. You don't expect Republicans to be skeptical of one of their own. They like his persona, but the poll shows cracks in the armor.

I would have loved to have gone to England,

I would be less than honest if I said we expected to do that.

Fundamentally, it's what's happening with the Nasdaq in the U.S. - the concerns about interest rates and earnings in the technology sector.

He's been around the block a few times. That (low-key) persona can be somewhat misleading if you assume there is not a tough politician inside. It's going to be a dandy race.

He just cursed at me and was yelling, 'Get away ... save me, Jesus. At that point, he was lying on his stomach and kept trying to roll into the road.

I think a lot of people confuse something new with innovation, and it's two different things.

Latin America is not a key issue for European earnings in aggregate.

Our kids played their brains out. I just don't know how much more we could have done.

I think the team will think this was an O.K. year. Some guys had career years, but the reality is that we didn't get it done at the end of the day.

That was unbelievable. Thirteen threes is awesome. But Ames made threes from three or four steps from behind the 3-point line right there. He has a quick release and wanted it tonight so give him credit. But it was not us not covering them, especially in the second half.

We investigated one incident and it turned out to have been shooting on the ground, not at the helicopter.

We were very focused tonight. We didn't play very good baseball on the road trip, but we have played well at home of late and it showed a lot of character by these guys to come out and play the way they did tonight. It was a big win for us.

We tend to get more inquiries right after the Olympics. Kids get excited by what they see on TV, but at that point it's usually late in the season and the enthusiasm cools down.

I've made no bones about wanting to work more on a full-time basis with cricket, I gave up my baseball career to do this because I believe in it,

All of us are used to being frugal.

It's a series of games, that's all it is, and those other games don't count.

This is closer to home, ... It's really touched their hearts more.

Once last week's (loss) happened there was just a sick feeling in our stomachs. Tuesday was such an upbeat practice because we didn't want to feel like that again. We just want to run the table.

That's a luxury of having a guy like Thompson who demands so much attention. We helped over on him. Drew had it played perfectly. The shot comes off and we don't get a box and the kid makes a big play.

A rise in bond yields will have a more negative impact on technology stocks, unless they're accompanied by more-optimistic earnings numbers from the tech companies, and we haven't seen that yet.

I really don't think the records play a part in this,

In the near term it has probably played itself out.

If you think it's embarrassing to drive around with a mannequin in your car, think how embarrassing it would be to get caught stealing one.

I don't think this is going to be a high-scoring series. I think the first couple of games might be very close and low-scoring.

I do increasingly feel like becoming a better writer is about trying to find new ways to solve the same problems over and over again, and I'll maybe be a good writer after I have solved the same problem ten million times.

Poetry is a way of always paying attention to the world for me; a way of letting the world stick to me instead of being anxious or estranged, just being present in the world.

I think no matter how snarky you try to be, poetry will always find a way to make a spiritual goal out of what you're doing.

If anxiety is the major force of our contemporary condition, a lot of poetry - including my own, mostly - sort of tries to escape that, fly off into magical thinking or bewilderment or whatever.

All poetry is political, to some degree.

All is context. Choose yours carefully, where you have a choice.

I think the team will think this was an O.K. year. Some guys had career years, but the reality is that we didn't get it done at the end of the day.

The guys battled tonight, they battled all year,

And it was probably the best thing that happened to us.

The market seems to be less prone to panic when there's an earnings warning. There's the idea out there that perhaps the bad news has already been discounted in the market.

The market is finally realizing that the earnings in these tech sectors have cyclical sensitivity - and the risks in the business cycles both in the United States and Europe are going up. Our latest assessment is that even at current levels the sector could still be 15 to 20 percent overvalued.
