Money's the same, whoever gives it to you. That was the point of money, after all: crisp and clean or wrinkled or disintegrated into quarters - a dollar was always worth a hundred cents.
Scott Westerfeld
If you want to win friends, make it a point to remember them. If you remember my name, you pay me a subtle compliment; you indicate that I have made an impression on you. Remember my name and you add to my feeling of importance.

Chuang Tzu
A strong passion for any object will ensure success, for the desire of the end will point out the means.
William Hazlitt
I'm at the point I want to feel good after a game. We've got a bad taste in our mouths. We've had it there for weeks.
Trey Teague
States have the right to draw the line between abortion and infanticide. [This Act] defines the point at which a child is a person under the law and therefore entitled to rights, including the most basic right to life.
Robert Muise
When we got to a certain point of weakness there were buyers and that's been one of the characteristics of the market recently ? the re-emergence of the 'buy on dips' crowd. It's a more disciplined crowd but they are certainly nibbling at excessive weakness and that's a good undertone.
Charles Payne
It is only six weeks until the next meeting. I doubt they will have to go between meetings. There is the probability of at least a (0.25 point) cut and more likely a (0.5 point) cut in June.
Carol Stone
On arrival, we had heavy fire showing from the top floor apartments in the center of the building. At one point, we had flames through the roof.
Thomas Rutledge
I like to be creative, and this is a chance for us to do something different and watch everything from a different point of view.
Andrea Heinbaugh
We made three consecutive mistakes on offense that allowed North Allegheny to tie the game. The whole match shifted from that point. It would have been a whole different match if we could have won that game.
Jeff Beavers
After my last solo album in '93, I got heavily into the film-composing thing. I didn't really have much to say... I was going through a divorce at that point, and to be quite honest, I really wasn't in the mood for making a CD then.
Stanley Clarke
We just need to let our horse run his race and not worry about what anybody else is doing. At some point, you have to believe Lawyer Ron is not going to run out of the bridle.
Danny Peitz
We real took control of the game at that point.
Andy D'alessio
Nothing is impossible at this point. Who knows what kind of response we'll get ... if any.
Chuck Webber
I think the dedication and experience level here is enormous, and the challenge is to get everyone focused on the same point, which is the customer.
Allen Questrom
It was great doubles and could have gone either way. It's tough to lose the doubles, because you always want that first point, but we're playing well, and now we just need to win four singles matches.
Lesley Sheehan
Sometimes it takes an expert to point out the obvious.
Scott Allen
That's a huge advantage going into overtime knowing we're on the power play. Basically the game was in our hands at that point, and luckily we capitalized.
Tom Preissing
We're in the middle of our migration season now where birds are flying. Are they going to bring it back to the Midwest on their flight patterns, we don't know. They're monitoring the birds closely--Alaska is the primary spot where they're watching the birds because it's the closest point where we would see contact.
Deb Steffen
[Artifacts, whether publications or oil field equipment, are] the physical manifestation of dreams, ideas, and great deeds, ... some point to successes, some point to great mistakes.
Bruce Wells
That play was the turning point. Brittany's a finisher, and she has a left hand like few girls have.
Karen Garmon
When I pulled up, I saw a construction crew on the guardrail pointing to a truck just beyond the King Street overpass.
George Andrews
I'm not at the point I want to meet the recipients yet. But I want to know they're OK. It's scary to write to us, but let us know how you're doing.
Susan Spiegel
At this point, things couldn't be any better. But, in reality, you don't win pennants in January and February. Reality will set in in another week or two.
Gerry Hunsicker
I think Democrats might want to be a little bit careful before they start pointing fingers. This is something that has ensnared both parties.
Sean Spicer
Cycle after cycle, like the ticks of a clock, we get closer and closer to the point where one of these mega-thrust earthquakes are going to occur like happened in Indonesia last year. You can almost look at these slip events as ticks of that clock.
Bill Steele
It doesn't really make any difference to me if I go out and shoot 64 or 74. Obviously, I'd like to shoot 64 more frequently than 74. There's really no point in me getting annoyed about it. There's other things, more important things going on.
Darren Clarke
If it needed emphasis, underline and exclamation point, Katrina did that.
Gerald Grinstein
Surfing is not my strong point. And... I don't really have a tan. I go to the tanning place, the one that sprays you with color.
Lori Loughlin
At 14-7, we've had a nice turnaround from 4-5. The kids are enjoying the ride. At this point we can't overlook anybody. We might have overlooked St. Bernard and almost got bitten.
Gary Ballestrini
I think they've gotten to a point where it's no longer a goal to make it to the state tournament. Their goal is to win state.
Pat Bennett
We aren't at the point yet where we have figured out that when things are going well for us we need to stay with that. I think that we get kind of bored, like things are getting easy, so let's try something on our own.
Joe Cravens
Social change is a messy process. We need more men with the guts to stand up and say abusive behavior is abusive behavior, and it's not right, and it doesn't make me less of a man to point that out.
Jackson Katz
Our point is not that television should avoid the topic of sex. Our point is that we need to be aware of the kind of messages about sex that we are sending our kids.
Victoria Rideout
We believe that we're moving closer and closer to the point where we wake up in the morning and worry about how much money we're going to make.
Kevin Payne
We haven't reached a crisis point yet, this is just Day 5.
Doug Brandy
At this point, I can't suggest buying their stock. They need to complete a drastic overhaul of their operations under the close watch of Daimler.
Yoshinobu Muraoka
It's really the networks that are the bottleneck at this point, ... the digital networks are not really built up yet.
Ross Rubin
Most companies are looking for a 12-month return on investment, or payback in the same fiscal year. It may be that the price point is too high.
Richard Barrett
Now, it's getting to the point -- in particular with the (bird) flu thing that we may see something happen that we need to be ready for. When you have the likelihood of a pandemic...that's scary stuff.
Bob Landry
It's been pretty exciting lately. It's taken kind of a while for us to get to this point. It's nice to see our guys playing like we know they can.
Rich Kolimas
The doubles point is always big. To come back from that far down … it's unheard of for fast indoor tennis.
Michael Starke
It all at this point lies with the kids. If they make some changes and work on some things, they have the opportunity.
Doug Kunde
ICD sales were up 30 percent, so they gained about a point of market share from Guidant.
Jeff Jonas
I think he's really undermined his credibility at this point, and it really saddles him with the kind of problems that Johnson and Nixon faced.
Robert Dallek
At this point of the season, where they is so much at stake, there is no excuse.
Bhawoh Jue
This will set us up in the future as a larger player nationally in sports marketing. Down the road you might point at the Sunshine State Games as our next goal.
Jeff Mielke
It is probably not going to happen, ... At this point, I have had no indication from the members that we need to have a formal hearing to adequately explore this matter.
Gerald Garrett
Some of the markets we are competing against are able to offer some attractive financial packages that we at this point are not in the position to offer.
Bruce Schedlbauer
The point of quotations is that one can use another's words to be insulting.
Amanda Cross
We came to the point where we have differences of opinion we just can't get past, ... I just feel she's taking the town in the wrong direction.
Thomas Farmer
We feel at this point that they've not expressed it yet, but they're not intending to bring him back.
Tony Agnone
I have absolutely no regrets coming to West Point. The military, I think, is a good fit for me. I am very much looking forward to getting out into the Army and putting what I learned to good use.
Andy Yakulis
We're just trying to piece together the last few days, hours of this woman's life. [The former doctor] is a person of interest at this point. We would like to speak to him about the fact we found a dead body in his house.
Lt. Jenell Atlas
Life is always at some turning point.
Irwin Edman
That?s a really good point.
Judyth Zahora
At this point, we feel that this is where wireless really becomes mainstream in most corporations.
Jeremy Burton
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There's no point in being a damn fool about it.
W. C. Fields
I don't think we would do anything any differently at this point.
Robert Larsen
The state has deposited its offer into the account at the courts. Basically, at this point, it's going through the appropriations process.
Cindy Brown
As we add preschool, we will do a school-by-school analysis at that point to see how many classrooms they have and if we had a preschool class do we still have room for child care. If not, this (the centralized daycare) becomes an option.
Walt Spencer
The essence of the methods (used by the Kremlin) is to remove from power those leaders that are too independent from its point of view.
Nikolai Petrov
It's getting to a point where, I'm just hanging my head. I don't know how to respond to it.
Terry Brooks
It becomes personal, especially with our operations folks out on the line. They get to the point where they want to beat it.
Steve Hart
He has the right to go to trial, but it would be a moot point by the time he did, because his shares will be gone.
Jeremy Miller
Love is like handing someone a gun, having them point it at your heart, and trusting them to never pull the trigger.
Michael Gardner
Our defense has been our focal point all season. They made solid plays for most of the game.
John Hochstetler
I'll talk to the kid when he gets here, and we'll have some direction at some point.
Trent Jewett
It was a real disappointing loss for the kids. We expected to win going in. It's just a tough loss when it comes down to one point. There are so many different things to look at, but Bret Harte deserves credit. They wrestled really well.
Vince Bicocca
The first thing I did when he pulled out the gun is try to take it from him. It was just kind of like instinct. I just tried to point it away from my head and get control of it.
Carl Rathburn
It was around midnight when the two men broke into my house. They bound my hands and both raped me at knife-point.
Sandra O'reilly
Are trying to concentrate our efforts on finding the kids, there are other aspects of the investigation that we're pursuing that I can't get into at this point.
John Bankhead
I've never really had problems controlling my temper. I am an intense guy on the football field, and sometimes I get carried away. I got carried away two days ago. I'm just going to make the situation right from this point forward. Can I move forward? I have no choice.
Bill Romanowski
It's a big turning point in the field of human genetics and understanding risk factors to disease.
Tom Hudson
At some point this will become so annoying that someone will want to change it. I'm quite confident that people are not going to be happy with multiple leap seconds per year.
Dennis Mccarthy
His backhand is much improved ... as well as his transition game and his volleys. He's getting to a point now where he's very comfortable up at the net. And now it's just getting the confidence to be able to do it in big matches.
Dean Goldfine
They really need to get going. Their whole proposition is they're in better position than phone companies...but at some point they have to show they can deliver.
Matt Harrigan
This star constellation will be our guide and point of reference from the beginning to the end.
Andrea Vogel
She will be out for at least a week ? anything after that is just speculation at this point.
Scott Collie
There's only one thing that's going to help, and that's the flow-way. It needs to flow, and it needs to flow south. We need to get out of this at some point in time, instead of digging deeper and deeper.
Charles Grande
This whole thing is a house of cards. At some point, you're going to have to sit down and talk reality, instead of farce and politics.
Sander Levin
At one point, we were told by Fire and Rescue that we had about two minutes or this gentleman was going to die.
Jeff Morgan
A single-digit percentage gain looks more likely this year. We had a great '03, a great '04 and a great '05. I think we're due for a pause at some point.
George Vasic
This got our point across at almost no cost.
Burt Odelson
Because of the cool, early season, we are not even to the point where we are able to sex the plants.
Steve Bailey
As a coach, you have an idea of how you want your team to play. I think we've finally gotten to that point. It was a matter of getting to know each other, finding a whole new chemistry and mending some things.
Mike Freitag
A new school is a reasonable point of discussion, but other items should be covered in a normal budgetary process.
David Harvey
I was never that much a focus of interest that I became a 'thing' at an earlier point in my career. I'm aware of having become a 'thing' now, which doesn't give me a lot of pleasure.
Matt Damon
From a financial point of view, it's bad news for them in the near term.
Jim Penhune
There will be a handshake at some point, and that's about it.
Jibril Rajoub
You can't dig a 20-point hole in the second half and think you're going to come back and win. When you're behind you have to play perfect.
Brent Norberg
It was a tough match. She played good and she had good results lately. So I had to fight hard for every point to win the match.
Shahar Peer
Dan just mauled him. He didn't even think about scoring a point against Danny.
Jeff Slayton
We lost to Craig twice. Once by one (point) and once in overtime. We haven't beat them in forever. They are serious about basketball over there.
Paul Draper
They just don't get to that point of thinking. I guess it's too novel for them in some ways.
Marco Gonzalez
That's just a little taste of what's liable to happen at some point in the not-so-distant future. There's no reason why a much bigger earthquake couldn't happen there.
Martin Chapman
All that a city will ever allow you is an angle on it - an oblique, indirect sample of what it contains, or what passes through it; a point of view.
Peter Conrad
I'm delighted to be a part of this national celebration. Rock 'n' roll began in Memphis, and the city continues to be a focal point of enormous musical creativity today.
Isaac Hayes
I had a really strong background to work with, but learning the technical aspects of racing has been really fun. I've actually exceeded my expectations. I'll be 42 in March, so this is a fun thing to be doing at this point in my life.
Wendy Lapham
In that first half, they gave us their best shot and we were right there. With the exception of a couple rimmed-out shots on our part, we were a point or two away. We played our guts out.
Todd Rogers
From this point on, we'll always be involved in it. It's kind of our thing.
Brenda Young
We thought we had some momentum going to start the second half (back to a 10-point deficit), but they kept hitting their shots.
Mike Chere
At this point, the perception is that Linux is viable (only) for servers.
Dan Kusnetzky
I work hard, I do my homework, and my strong point is to bring teams of people together in a bipartisan manner.
Dale Groutage
When a guy banks in a 3, that's a huge momentum swing. I think we knew things weren't going to go our way at that point.
Tim O'shea
I believe some of the trinkets and some of the things offered are either embarrassing or they're silly or they really miss the point, ... And the marketplace has to sort that out. I would hope there are enough common-sense donors out there that won't buy that kind of material or encourage it, but to the extent they do, it's the American way.
Paul Nelson
At this point, I don't think we've made a decision.
Melissa Walters
There is still some work to do in our doubles because it is important to get the doubles point in matches. We need to focus on the match and play like we can.
Olga Klimova
You just have to give Dallas the credit. They have a good team. They have been playing well this season. They ran into a team that has not been playing well, and trying to learn things that they are doing. At this point, it didn't show.
Jalen Rose
At this point we are offering opinions, and I will get facts at the next board meeting.
Chris Black
We're just stewards of the heritage asset for the community at this point. That's why there needs to be a society. It's above and beyond the cash flow.
Ann Nelson
Concentrated attention is the collection of units of power on a chosen point of intention.
James Arthur Ray
I wanted to prove a point: Why trade me? I am still one of the best backs out there.
Troy Davis
That match could have gone either way. There was one point where they were up 5-4 and they hit a [30-15] lead and a kid hit a shot really close to the line, but if we get that point, it's [40-15], we get two match points, we probably win. It really just could have gone either way.
Tim Matacio
The important point today is that the government of Ontario was a very effective catalyst in bringing the parties together.
Greg Sorbara
I knew it would happen. Just when was the question. But at this point in time, it doesn't matter if it happened last year or now. It's done. That's the most important thing to me.
Dominique Wilkins
It is an honor to win again this award for our annual report, which is our prime marketing piece. We are pleased that the judges agreed with us that the report does an excellent job in highlighting the many recent economic development successes of High Point.
Loren Hill
We know that one point is all that we need to clinch. We're not going to take these guys lightly, and we don't want any bad habits going into the playoffs.
Drew Omicioli
The atmosphere was just unbelievable all night... now we travel to Ajax and I'm convinced from our performances so far that we will be able to get at least a point there.
Urs Schoenenberger
I would try to settle all the outstanding liability claims at this point in time, so that it doesn't take Boston Scientific off course in integrating Guidant.
Allen Michel
It got to the point that within two hours of entering the building, I cannot breathe at all.
Sally Reed
Gossip harms relationships and that's why it's bad. While we all do it at times, there's a point where it crosses the line and becomes bullying if it damages friendships and causes people to dislike someone.
Rachel Simmons
We've signed agreements with all of them. I think they're all pretty much happy campers at this point. When we couldn't give them an answer, it was frustrating for them.
Melinda Johnson
One of the main objectives is to make them successful from this point forward, whether they file or not.
Betty Parker
It was an effective p.r. effort by the Cowen group, I don't think there's any doubt about that. All things being equal, we wouldn't have gone to a fifth bowl. ... Although we were moving in an evolutionary way toward more inclusion, whether we would have gotten to this point, I doubt it. I think we were pushed to this point.
Jim Delany
There may be a point, if this storm decides to make landfall, that a county may decide it doesn't want anybody at the beach. But that's a local decision.
Renee Hoffman
We see the writing on the wall of some changes that could be taking place in the copper market. However, at this point, we're not necessarily at a point where we can call for that yet.
Dave Meger
It's part of the past that we have between us now. We can't get away from that piece of it. So what we're hopeful of doing is perhaps using this first anniversary of it as a point from which to move forward.
Joseph Prueher
She has a very patron-oriented point of view.
Bob Griffin
I'm at a point where probably in the next couple of years I'm gonna go coach football. It's something I enjoy. I don't need a paycheck for it.
Pat Knight
Brian's career is at a very wonderful point now.
Gary Gittelsohn
I'm hoping they'll come forward and tell us what happened, but at this point it's very hard for me to make a judgment because I have very few facts.
Howard Safir
It was one of those nights where they got to Johnny in the first couple of innings and got two runs right away. They got off to a 4-0 lead after six. At that point we felt like it was time to get Johnny out of there. Maybe save his arm a little bit.
James Frisbee
The whole point is why the mountains, the land, still determines our culture. The mountains sort of drive how we live.
Jeff Biggers
Learn to adjust yourself to the conditions you have to endure, but make a point of trying to alter or correct conditions so that they are most favorable to you.
William Frederick Book
He's a great team player and a leader as a point guard. He's a good player. That's all something any coach would want.
Joe Sitkowski
The key point here is the wireless coverage it gives us, from Creswell north to basically south Salem. We figure we have the largest wireless footprint of any locally owned company (in Oregon).
Michael Reding
Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything, or creating anything. Period. If you ain't desperate at some point, you ain't interesting.
Jim Carrey
I'm not going to look at it as if it's a bigger tournament, I'm just going to go out there and play every point.
Marc Spicijaric
At one point, I thought that maybe humor was the best way to deal with it.
Marc Levin
We've gone way too far with the First Amendment. Everybody hangs their hat onto that - the First Amendment. At some point we have to look at what's best for youth.
Fred Harran
He was unbelievable today. It was probably the finest Yasser has ever played. He came out from the first point with his 'A' game. It was just a devastating performance.
Bob Callahan
Fighting back is the sign of an experienced team. We didn't panic when we got down by eight in the second quarter. Instead, we kept playing hard and got a two-point lead by halftime.
Mark Atherton
Simply put, there is no reason to buy shares aggressively at this point.
Alvin Teng
(Braun) scored the first goal of the second half and it was a man-up goal, too. That was a huge turning point in the game.
Derek Reichenbecher
Once they get through the traditional fact-finding period, it is after that point that they would have public hearings into the matter. They will go through the normal course of their investigation, which is the fact-finding period.
Tom Hunter
I feel privileged to be able to carry on something that's had such a good reputation. Hopefully, we'll get to the point again where you won't be able to get in the door on Friday nights.
Dick Fazio
In the final 12 to 13 minutes of the game, we were just hoping and praying that we could pick balls up that were dropping. But they did a better job picking them up, and the game was theirs at that point.
Steve Burns
A referendum ...by High Point residents would certainly be a guiding force.
Gary Adams
No one wants to go home at this point. We're fighting to keep our season alive, and we'll come with everything we've got.
Freddy Robinson
Our teams over there interviewed North Vietnamese or communist soldiers that actually participated in the attack and they were helpful in pointing out what they knew about the battle site.
Larry Greer
We have had an awesome year in doubles and are hoping we don't drop the point this whole season. If one team has an off day, we have two others that give our opponents difficult doubles matches.
Catrina Thompson
The last thing we say before we come out of every huddle is 'one, two, three, family,' and from a spectator's point of view, we weren't looking like family out there on the court. That has to change.
Jeremis Smith
I can't point to anything else.
Henry Schafer
We've got the goods out, and we're just at this point trying to find the little gaps.
Hugh Smith
At this point, it's so uncertain ... that it would be foolish to speculate on a date.
Bill Gerstenmaier
This is a critical point for NHS dentistry.
Steve Webb
I gave my shots to him from the first point. He took everything he could possibly get.
Bobby Riggs
The important thing to remember, ... is that you will lose money in the stock market at some point - but the overall rewards are hard to beat.
