For a first time for a seventh-grader, she was very aggressive and came out of the box. She did well.

Tim Haskins

When I first faced him in '98, I knew he and (Roy) Halladay both had special stuff.

Jeff Conine

You won your first check yesterday.

Steve Kroft

What we hope ever to do with ease we may learn first to do with diligence.

Samuel Johnson

It was very volatile in its first year [because] we tried to accommodate everybody's requirements.

Steve Butler

Get there first with the most.

Nathan Bedford Forrest

The tempo of the first half was so amazing. We were having a lot of fun on the field.

Kate Parker

There's no doubt about that. This is our first road trip, so it's going to be different for us.

Vance Belew

I have to think long-term first for the Islanders and myself. That is what is fair.

Alexei Zhitnik

The Bourbon King was first ambassador of reason and human happiness.

Heinrich Mann

The first duty of an historian is to be on guard against his own sympathies.

James A. Froude

That's super for a 15-year-old sophomore in her first trip down here.

Dave Holmes

When revenues are short, one of the first things you can do is cut back on services.

Craig Evans

We plan to add an additional 33 centers in the first quarter.

Babatunde Osotimehin

I can't believe we won that first game.

Katrina Solomon

To be honest it is a relief to get the first win out of the way and we can kick on from here.

Laurie Wilson

I'm really happy to win my first WTA title.

Richard Krajicek

Starting from the first quarter we expect to be profitable.

Li Dongsheng

It's the first time it's actually shown the difference.

Mark Gurwell

I really want to see where I'm at with this first meet. For a change I'm actually pretty healthy.

Courtney Jones

The first game was fantastic. We were right with them and had the lead for awhile.

Jon Giordano

It's the first step to federal recognition of credit freezes.

Chris Hoofnagle

We weren't physical enough in the first half. We needed to be more aggressive.

Brad Ulland

We're not known for our dancing. At first it was difficult, we didn't know if we could handle it, but now it's amazing.

Nick Rodriguez

Basically what we're trying to do is allow a consumer to build a digital library for the first time.

Jim Ramo

We're not going to try to win the national championship in the first game. We really believe it's about what we do.

Cassandra Yancy

If you didn't e-mail us first, it is not from us.

Dan Boone

We can all be proud we're the first here, and cutting new ground.

Chris Bevilacqua

We were picked first, and Will reflected those expectations. So I was surprised he didn't win Coach of the Year.

Lee Mcelroy

First publication is a pure, carnal leap into that dark which one dreams is life.

Hortense Calisher

Frankly, we didn't believe the results at first.

Rudolph Salganik

We started fixing the place up, probably in October. We put our first turkeys on the place in early December.

Rich Rogers

Remember that you are an Englishman, and have consequently won first prize in the lottery of life.

Cecil Rhodes

Brian Calhoun is definitely one of the best running backs we have ever faced. We have to shut the run down first, no doubt about it. He's an incredible athlete.

Will Herring

If we are to understand emergency department wait times in Canada, we must first understand how emergency departments are used.

Jennifer Zelmer

We had more steals in the first half than we usually have in an entire game.

Jon Strebe

Self-confidence is the first requisite to great undertakings.

Samuel Johnson

It was kind of bare when we first came here.

Margie Achman

We can't go in and make first-game mistakes that you'd get away with against a team of a lesser caliber.

Kyle Wright

When I first came here some five years ago I could see that, when things were being done, John was behind it.

Sue Johnston

The markets were wrong in the first place to worry about inflation, ... will not let inflation run out of control.

Geoffrey Dennis

For those travelers lucky enough to fly business or first class, beware of the feeding frenzy.

Lisa Wheeler

He's not the first coach there to have to deal with this standard. You really have to overcome the party-school atmosphere that Colorado has ... it's something that was there before him.

Terry Bowden

They got 19 the first night and 3 the second night.

Jeff Rosenthal

The first casualty when war comes is truth (speech, 1917).

Hiram Johnson

I had to step up big because it was my fault they got down there in the first place. I took it upon myself to get involved.

James Shannon

Girls, you can't be the first, but you can be next.

Ric Flair

We had a very good first quarter. We got out and got going an hit those threes.

Doug Pesicka

We've played well in the first half in a lot of games.

Travis Niesen

We came on the first night and it was really fun, so we just kind of kept coming.

Mat Guida

It definitely helps when you score two goals on your first game back.

Milan Hejduk

Why should I be nervous? We've got the best car and the best driver out there, and he was in first place.

Darian Grubb

We should have never gotten down that far in the first place. That just gave us more intensity to come back.

Brian Parker

My first rule of consumerism is never to buy anything you can't make your children carry.

Bill Bryson

They don't have a permanent license, but they do get first shot.

Rob Mullen

In the first half we just stifled them on defense.

Dennis Melcher

We're dirty pop. It's a trend now, but we were the first ones to do it!

Justin Timberlake

After that he was fine. He just needed that first one to go down.

Skip Mills

This is our fourth major redesign. But this is the first designed for the customer.

Gary Marshall

We've already had mid-season sales. I'd argue that punters are doing what they do at Christmas and waiting to see who blinks first.

David Stoddart

This is believed to be the first time that criminal charges have been brought against national exchange members.

Jo White

Now, the essence, the very spirit of Christmas is that we first make believe a thing is so, and lo, it presently turns out to be so.

Stephen Leacock

The first report is always a little off. It's really too early to tell.

Jim Pollard

We played our first game in 1986. When we first started, we couldn't hit the ditch.

Jim Batchelor

We had a really warm winter, and then we get snow the first day of spring.

Lori Worley

Everyone feels like it will probably be the first priority because of the concerns that have been voiced.

Hugh Mcguire

If at first you don't succeed, give up.

Homer Simpson

Alley was devastated at first. But he now knows how common it is to return from this injury.

Brent Bankston

I never anticipated and never applied. It (a head coaching job) is nothing I ever really aspired to. I?m a teacher first and a coach second.

Glen Bernard

It's something we've gone up and down with so it was nice to see we could finish in the first half.

Marie Muhvic

At first, we had mostly cosmetics, then we kept expanding our gift area.

Nick Spanos Jr

I think he spent most of the first term coughing up the nicotine from his cigarettes.

Duncan Larcombe

When I first came to New York and saw Italian families and their displays of affection, I was taken aback a bit because it was uninhibited.

Frank Mccourt

To be first in a place had always been important to us.

Richard Dean

It was my first heat of the year and I felt really good.

Chelsea Georgeson

We have to have a real hunger and be more prepared [than our first game against Canada].

Hannu Aravirta

We had legs of cotton in the first half, but we did what was needed in the second half.

Jean Fernandez

The team is playing for first place in the wild card now, so we've got to keep fighting.

Livan Hernandez

One of the first decisions we had to make was whether to keep the existing building or raze it.

John Coleman

As soon as the first sign of a little bit of cool weather comes around, and people start calling.

Larry Hill

If a team wants an inside backer, I should be the first one they look at.

D'qwell Jackson

You'd think he was the first person to ever lose a tooth!

Judy Blume

In Q2 we will most probably see the first signs and I expect in Q3 to have everything at place to see the full impact.

Niklas Savander

It's the first chapter in a book and the Republicans won't tell us the rest of it.

Sander Levin

I won't say we would have won, but we would have gotten on the board first, and maybe manufactured a run or two more.

Mark Brookes

Fear was the first thing on earth to make gods.

Lucretius

We came out strong in the first half on both ends of the court.

Rodney Vigil

We have to be on top of our game when we face them. There's a reason why they were picked to finish first.

Holly Brown

It took me five years before I saw 100 grand. My first contract was for $40,000, with a $42,500 bonus.

Morten Anderson

That's what cost us the game. We were all over them in the first and then we have difficulty keeping going.

Chris Heaney

In my opinion, they didn't have anything. We felt it shouldn't have gone to trial in the first place.

Robert Harris

We had so much talent and depth, our third team was as good as anyone else's first team.

Terry Brennan

First of all they are not going to manage any ports. Even after this deal's done they're not managing ports.

Richard Wainio

She was the first punk woman.

Jean paul Gaultier

Our first goal is to get people to the event and inform them.

Anabella Hedman

We will first determine whether these are criminal allegations or whether this is a civil matter.

Paul Murphy

When you start a farm up, you don't expect to make a lot at first. You cover your expenses.

Philip Kilpatrick

Our team isn't used to being in first place. Everybody is gunning to beat you when you're in first.

Roger Opsommer

Marching is a big thing for me and my family. I'll be the first person in my family to graduate from college, so it is a big thing to march.

Troy Irvine

It was in the mid-'80s when he first came out. That's been 20 years ago, and the people listening to him then were 18 to 21.

Mark Jeffers

The avantgarde are people who don't exactly know where they want to go, but are the first to get there.

Romain Gary

It was a silly idea in the first place.

Shareese Deleaver

They were the first team to do that in a while.

Craig Brehon

The paper was sold out before the first copy was printed.

Robert Moore

The First Law of Journalism: to confirm existing prejudice, rather than contradict it.

Alexander Cockburn

The first ones are going very smoothly, but they're often the easiest ones to catch.

Terry Palmisano

First deal with your own tears; tomorrow do something about acid rain.

Betty Jane Whylie

Our offense responded well on the first two drives.

Kent Briggs

Every Monday the first thing we do is run our roads.

Phil Trenary

Then we're off to Chicago. You spend a lot of your time traveling, but in the NBA, it's all first class.

Dan D'antoni's

We got what we deserved after our first 20 minutes, so we have no complaints ... it isn't going to change anything now.

Craig Bellamy

It's the first time we've been in a grand final so to win it is fantastic.

Adam White

He's touching 98 (mph) in the first inning and didn't really back off at all. Great job.

Marty Brown

Take them to the well and drop them in head-first.

John Held

Chess first of all teaches you to be objective.

Alexander Alekhine

We kind of knew (Savannah) would be the first. I was the only one up there ready to deliver.

Wendy Lavallo

I was about to cry. It's exciting that I got first. I would have been thrilled to be in the top three.

Katie Nelson

This is awesome for me since this is my first year winning the event.

Tim Lawson

We don't expect to see rejection in the early phase. Our big concern is in the first three months.

William Jones

What I find is that if I get it right on the first try, there's something wrong.

Gregory Kozak

Our first thought is that we're just glad there's this many deals on the calendar.

Kyle Huske

It is impossible to see the angel unless you first have a notion of it.

James Hillman

Since this was our first one, it was extremely important to show that UND could handle this.

George Seielstad

First dedicate all of their attention to protecting their lives, their health and their family members.

Vicente Fox

Your work is first, learning is first, winning is everything because without it there is nothing.

Orson Scott Card

The first thing I'm going to try to do is outrun it. I do everything I can not to get caught in a storm.

James Plaag

He didn't have his best stuff. But after the first, he settled down and pitched comfortably.

Pete Meyer

They're like two animals facing one another. Who is going to make the first move and what's it going to be?

Walid Phares

I think that's the third time our first defense wasn't scored on.

Bis Bisbee

The first game was the big one. It was probably the best game we played from start to finish this season.

Roger Spring

Tommy gave me my first chance on stage. And I won't forget it.

Frankie Valli

If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style.

Quentin Crisp

It could be her first large setback but let's wait and see.

Gerd Langguth

I think the first half is an indication of what we could be.

Bob Murray

First it was al-Qaida that was going to kill us, now it's our bridges.

David Walters

That's the first time they've gotten the stick all the way around ... wow.

Jason Goings

The main thing we hear is they can't see the child. A lot of them have a second family, and they forget about the first family. Or they don't have a job.

Donna Gilbert

If we played in the first half how we played in the second half, things might have been different.

Dave Todd

It's every bit as sweet as the first time. I'm just rejoicing. I feel very blessed to be here.

Teri Rosinski

I take the blame for it in the first half. I was very emotional. The way things were going, I wasn't pleased.

Howie Hewitt

The family is the first essential cell of human society.

Pope John Xxiii

The is the first day I've been able to walk around and get up out of a chair.

Mark Kotsay

I'm not happy with the tie. Especially the first half, we had the game controlled, and we should have put two more away and we didn't. But that's how it goes.

Amy Litteral

On the first catch, Troy kind of looked at me and grinned.

Ryan Hamby

Its a chicken-and-egg argument as to which comes first.

Joe Gill

Every artist was first an amateur.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

We certainly have the door open to new ideas, and these are the first two serious ones we've seen.

Rose Davis

That first touchdown, it was just bad technique on my part.

Juran Bolden

This is a first step, so we're not constantly looking at the general fund.

Nina Trasoff

He put it about where I thought he would. Luckily, we had one of the fastest guys in the country on first.

Carson Kainer

We'll do a couple more [eight-round fights] first.

Hector Alatorre

This is huge for Lego. The first thing we're asking them to do is really bang on the product.

Soren Lund

Everyone wanted to know why she did it. And I said because her boyfriend broke up with her. He was her first real love.

Andrea Cooper

Being the son of a school board member doesn't automatically make you all-district, all-state, and certainly not first on the depth chart.

Pat Wozniak

This is one of the first things we learn to do.

Sue Wilson

Always school first, golf second. There was never any question.

Rudy Duran

We've been trained, first thing you grab is your video camera.

Sara Barker

It's the first case in which the redistricting was for a political gerrymander. It wasn't a byproduct. It was the goal.

Rolando Rios

And in the inter-school chant section we were also awarded a first place.

Chris Rushby

I was stunned. I thought he was messing with me at first.

Zac Taylor

The first closest person will drop everything. A boat taking somebody off to the hospital is a big deal.

Richard Ramsey

Why would you make a decision that could affect many people's livelihoods and put them out of business without even consulting them first?

Jim Morton

Business conditions in the first half have been some of the most difficult that we have experienced in recent years.

Charles O. Holliday

I'm not sure why they didn't have the Q&A session today or even a conference call with analysts when they first announced the restructuring.

Sean Mcgowan

I was the first DJ to make the turntable an instrument.

Grandmaster Flash

First thing was to give my wife a big hug.

Sergeant Daniel Halemano

I'm pretty excited about being the first choice. I had some stiff competition and didn't know if I was going to get the nod.

William Donahue

The conference is always our first goal.

Neal Nelson

There were a lot of games that I could have taken but I had fun out there. In my first U.S. Open I couldn't have asked for any more.

Sania Mirza

As happy as I was with the first half, that's as disappointed as I was with the second half. I don't know how to explain it.

Shawn Stenger

The first thing I noticed about him was that he had a different attitude.

Patrick Mouratoglou

I'd want my own children to choose what they feel comfortable with. I feel I could marry a Christian or a Buddhist because I believe love comes first.

Tim Campbell

Family programs tend to be the ones the green-eyeshade people go after first.

Charles Abell

This is the first step toward a retail distribution channel for digital music.

Charles Jennings

Rocks and gravel will come down sometimes. But this is the first time there's ever been a mud event.

Michael Hofmann

She was the first to commit, and her decision changed the complexion of our program at a very important time.

Patrick Baker

I've seen the first-hand effects of one thing leading to another.

David Lapointe

My No. 1 goal is to be No. 1 in my first Boston Marathon, and I always run to win.

Meb Keflezighi

We have a limited amount of space, so we're thinking that the first 100 entries will be able to get in, and then after that, if we can't fit it, we'd have to say no.

Jody Johnson

I admire young Tim for doing what he did — having had a young family. Family is first in my book.

Robbyn Tumey

My control wasn't exactly where I want it. But it's definitely good to get the first one out of the way.

Chuck James

We played bad. For as bad as we played, we were still in it for the first four innings.

Albert Flores

We discourage people from taking it because it could be contaminated. If you must use it, then boil it first.

Simon Muhumuza

A very important first step.

Paul Ryan

After there are no more leaks, we will do interior work. And one of the first things we have to do is get those pigeons out.

Joan Smith

Alan played very well in our first game. He was all over the field and he was the best defensive player on the field.

Ron Hilliard

It was a huge thrill to come in first. One of the Olympic dreams is down. A couple more to go.

Jay Hakkinen

It's the first time Nordstrom in its 100-year history has ever done something for an athletic conference.

Hade Robinson Jr

After that first batter hit a home run, she had the mental toughness to bear down. She did what she had to do to win.

Judy Westgate

It's limited enough that you're not unduly focusing on anyone's First Amendment rights.

Mayor Scott Slifka

The first goal of the BRAC is to improve the war-fighting capability.

Gary Heckman

Our defense was a little shaky at the start, but it was the first game of the year.

Jeremy Trill

We start with the object work, because the object is the first partner.

Daniel Stein

To get a chance to come back and defend your first win is something you only get one chance of doing.

Nick Dougherty

The first quarter was like a boxing match, with a big punch here, and a punch there.

Tom Jones

The first thing his lawyers will do now is to fight to get him out of detention and on bail.

Jose Miguel Vivanco

Ugly. We couldn't make a basket the first quarter, and they were really beating us on the boards.

Tim Wolf

The first thing I have to do is get them over that game. Then we get ready for the next one.

Vince Catanzaro

You must see first before you can believe.

Raymond Holliwell

I did that because I put my family first. We did what we thought was best for our baby at the time.

Mark Hunt
