Sir George Savile
I don't care if I'm cool or not. I've always been an awkward person anyway.

He's given himself as much potential as he could. There's been nothing really bad that's happened to him, and he's got a budget surplus and a lot of popularity.

Exercise tends to go as popular culture goes. Dance as exercise has probably started popping up in more gyms across the country recently due to the popularity of dancing shows on TV.
Brooke Correia

Kjell Magne Bondevik
Popularity is the pocket change of history. The true measure is courage. There will never be another Charlton Heston.
Tom Selleck
Information is a treasure for our people. The promise of the journalist is not with popularity. It is with the truth.

Faye Klein
Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet.
Dave Barry
It's very encouraging to be included. Last year, we played one date in Nashville and it was our first experience. But in light of the popularity of 'Kiss Me,' it worked out again this year. And it's amazing to be on such a great bill.
Leigh Nash
We know that 'Monday Night Football' is really popular out here because people bet on it. People who lose on the college games on Saturday and the pro games on Sunday try to make it all up on Monday night. That's a major factor in the popularity of 'Monday Night Football' across the country. People who have lost over the weekend try to get back to even. Whether they do or not is another story.
Dick Davies
We are here to help a friend in need. We'll worry about the popularity contest later.
Ryan Crocker

The popularity has really developed on word of mouth, and it lives up to it. It also has that universal appeal.
Nancy Parrott
It's not about conservative or liberal. It's about the full selection of radio programming which is based on popularity here in the States.
Allison Barber
The popularity comes from the fact that these radio stations play a real broad catalog of music, so they aren't as repetitive.
Alfredo Alonso
People don't come to your games to see your manager. I can understand why some people will feel that this was based on Alan's popularity here. But really, we could not afford to make this decision based on that, because we need to right this ship.
Dave Dombrowski
Slogans shouldn't just be popularity contests.
Tim Calkins
Preval has quite a bit of popularity in the West and it is the first department that we processed, and therefore he was ahead of everybody. As we include other departments his percentage is going down.

If the people raise a great howl against my barbarity and cruelty, I will answer that war is war, and not popularity seeking.
William Tecumseh Sherman

Rodney Knox
The popularity in keeping and breeding birds is rising rapidly in the UK and we are one of the main players in the bird trade in Europe.
David Bowles
Camilla is a million miles away from achieving the popularity that Diana did. ... They will need all the PR expertise they can muster. Prince Charles and Camilla getting married and living in a house on one of his estates is one thing, her ever becoming queen is totally different.
Max Clifford
Database archiving is gaining in popularity, but I think there is confusion in the terminology that has not helped to differentiate active archiving from simple data backup.
Dianne Mcadam
The amazing thing about the popularity of these loans is that people are paying triple-digit interest to get their refunds back only a few days earlier.

Diane Quinn
What we're seeing is a result of Koizumi's diminishing popularity -- the 'Koizumi effect' is wearing off.

Judge Moore doesn't have very large coattails. He went too far when he refused to obey the court order, and that was sort of a turning point and his popularity has been dropping ever since then.
Larry Powell
People in South Dakota are angry. Gov. [Mike] Rounds' popularity has dropped by 14 points.
Sarah Stoesz
I would say it is a declining number of chain installers because of the popularity of the SUV. We have seen a real drop in the number of people (applying for permits).
Mark Dinger
The French Revolution and the rise of the middle class signaled the end of the harpsichord's popularity. The middle class began attending performances in large concert halls, and a keyboard instrument with a bigger sound that could fill a hall was needed.
Kathleen Mcintosh
The actor's popularity is evanescent; applauded today, forgotten tomorrow.
Harrison Ford
He is riding the nuclear wave with great skill to bolster his popularity at home.

Michael Kotzin
The popularity of the line tells us that we are definitely on the right track.

Jodi Whitaker
He has kept his popularity amid all the troubles. That is his major success this year.
Indria Samego
More and more people are taking advantage of these plans. They seem to be growing quite rapidly in popularity, mainly because people are just now finding out about them. You still find a lot of people who just don't know much about them.
Joseph Hurley
In terms of popularity, what hobby compares to being a sports fan?
Christian End
I think it'll be a good proxy for a popularity contest for James Cramer.
Gail Bronson
Traditionally, I don't think we've put the focus on it (the Hispanic market). Our popularity is soaring there (Mexico). There is a great deal of interest in American football.
Roger Goodell
That's not to say that these procedures may not increase in popularity in the future. But right now, they are not as popular as they have been portrayed in the media.
Bruce Cunningham
We've got the critical mass of urban dwellers for them, with all the new building and conversions we've had. ... But with their popularity, their trading ring would be 60 or 70 miles, which would include Boulder and Colorado Springs.
Larry Black
Not about my popularity. People have been supporting me since my childhood. They are supporting me because they want a change not about my popularity.

Keith Gile
The portable MP3 player category has seen the most growth in popularity and Apple has been a very important driver of that.
Susan Kevorkian

Charles Gillespie
God's using the popularity of the band as a way of saying Casting Crowns is doing this for youth pastors.

The election has proved his popularity has gone down. His legitimacy was greatly affected.
Panitan Wattanayagorn
The response to this competition just shows the huge popularity this event enjoys among the people of the UAE.
Colm Mcloughlin

Greg Raymer
This shows how the global popularity of rugby is expanding. Even countries that don't play the sport want to be involved.
Bernard Lapasset
To have six is a bit unreal. I hope that this boosts the popularity of rhythmic gymnastics in Canada and people take it more seriously. Not many people even know what it is.
Alexandra Orlando
We are closely monitoring several trends in the market. The Mac is gaining popularity and as they gain a bigger share of the desktop market, they become a bigger target.
Rev. Roger Woodard
Sharon got his great new prestige from leaving Gaza and founding a center party; the party and the evacuation did not derive their popularity from him. Given Israel's globalizing economy, the logic of this party is much stronger than Sharon.
Bernard Avishai
It means their focus groups and polling are telling them that he is not a compelling source on these topics, and that is linked to his popularity ratings.
Barbara O'connor
We fully knew coming in that they were going to be a developmental program, but that's the kind of thing we like to see. I want to see wrestling gain popularity all over this area, not just at my school.

Dale Stump
For each new generation of teenagers, Dean offers sympathetic personas of youth struggling to carve out their identities. That's why his popularity goes on and on.
Dennis Stock
A weaker yen is definitely positive for Mazda and other automakers. Mazda's earnings are also helped by the rising popularity of its vehicles.

Aaron Schatz
Ever since the design of snowshoes became updated, the sport has grown in popularity.
Heather Atwell
His decision is a most precarious one because he has a home base there. Every time you have a flop movie, you can always go back to the show. So he's taking a chance on eroding his popularity.
Matt Roush
The popularity of BET especially with the minority community probably had an effect on mainstream networks. Not only did you see them focus on sitcoms with black characters, but you would also see shows that had an all-black cast.
Mark Kelley
The workplace is not a popularity contest. It is about getting your job done effectively. But you can get it done more effectively if you are likable, if you have people skills.
Peter Handal
But that's not so with John. He was very much at the height of his popularity and his creativity. It's a tragedy.
Buddy Holly
I think the popularity of last year's throwers has brought more attention. It will bring more of a fan base to Aaron.
Jayson Duffy
Obviously, with the increase in technology, piracy has increased. It is so much easier to burn a DVD or a CD. Because of the growing popularity of our music on the world stage, it is important to protect our musical creativity.
Ronald Young
We decide on what items to replace based on the demand and popularity of the item and also if it is our only copy of it. We are not going to replace CDs, however, since they are a large ticket item. As you can see, this causes a problem because we cannot replace everything and that means that our community will have to do without.
Deb Beisell
It's like he gained a lot from his popularity, but he suffers a lot for it too.
Peter Guralnick
We're delighted at the success, but honestly not surprised at Jake's popularity. He makes you feel good.
John Jacobs
The popularity of these loans has exploded.
William Mccracken

Jay Kornegay
Auto racing is rapidly growing in popularity in urban communities, ... and FUBU wants to be at the forefront of this movement.
Carl Brown
Tables are hot, there's no doubt about it. A lot of that is fueled by poker's popularity and its popularity on TV, which is showing Americans that table games in general are fun.
Joe Weinert
Think back to the popularity of fitness offerings 20 years ago: That is the spa industry today.
Lynne Walker Mcnees
But this is not a job we do to win popularity points, ... I was elected to enforce the law. And anytime a grown man has sex with a child, it's not a close call for me.
Jon Bruning
His influence and popularity among the core constituency of the revolution and the government ... [has put him] in a situation where other figures cannot contradict him.
Mahmoud Alinejad
The way Apple is approaching it is very smart. They're able to leverage the popularity of their players… and experiment with non-music video content.
Susan Kevorkian
It's only going to help increase the popularity of indoor track in the area. It's going to bring in big teams to run here.
Gerald Mosley
We could have a governor who is empowered and chastened at the same time. He'll be empowered if some of his measures pass, but chastened because he had to work hard for it and his popularity was cut in half.
Bill Whalen
I think Elvis was dismissed because of his popularity.
Peter Guralnick
We looked at the popularity of Roots in the last Olympics and thought this was something to get into.
Carolyn Brookter
There's been a lot of interest in it. I think that with the popularity of NASCAR, the type of racing that we do is similar. I think that appeals to a lot of families.
Ralph Hernandez
I want to help the communities spread the popularity of soccer. We have talented athletes around. These players will be our future leaders.
John Matin
We are proud to see Bangkok Airways joining the growing list of launch customers for the A350. This really demonstrates the popularity of our new wide-body in the market place.
Gustav Humbert
The demand for digital textbooks has increased since its introduction to the marketplace. As students become more familiar with them and computers get faster, larger and more portable, this product will gain in popularity.
Jeff Cohen
Popularity is exhausting. The life of the party almost always winds up in a corner with an overcoat over him.
Wilson Mizner
It's normal for a new prime minister to enjoy rising popularity in the first months. The difficulties run very deep. The context is profoundly depressed.
Emmanuel Ferry
The popularity of the game will increase once the publicity of it goes into affect, Parents beware!
Ed Schultz
This is not only an unadulterated lie, but a cheap attempt at scoring popularity points.
Zizi Kodwa
We try to bring something new [to the festival] every year. We've seen the popularity of chef competitions at other festivals and on television and we said this was something we had to do here.
Erin Molloy
The popularity of poker is absolutely phenomenal. It is head and shoulders over other types of college gambling.
