The quarter was good. Outlook was conservative for the full year which is good and we like the first-quarter guidance, ... I'd rather they start out conservatively (for the full year) and be able to move the numbers up rather than put a high bar up and set themselves up for disappointment.
Brian Modoff
Rather than blindly insisting there is zero error in fingerprint matching, we should acknowledge the obvious, study the errors openly and find constructive ways to prevent faulty evidence from being used to convict innocent people.
Simon Cole
There is definitely palace intrigue, ... why should Dorman stick around? This issue is going to come to a head sooner rather than later.
Scott Cleland
I'd rather see a park than a prison or homes. I particularly don't want the access. It does change the character of the community.
John Carmack
One thing that really appeals to me is this idea of music being a living thing that has an evolution that, in a way, enables the artist to sell a process rather than a piece of product.
Peter Gabriel
We all felt the huge disappointment for not qualifying for Germany. Now we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves down and look forward rather than back.
Steve Staunton
When you've got guys like Andruw (Jones), Chipper (Jones), Julio (Franco) and Marcus (Giles) in front of you, you have some RBI chances. A pitcher doesn't want to pitch to those guys. He'd rather pitch to a rookie any day.
Jeff Francoeur
With what's going on with the aftermath of the hurricane, I would expect prices to go up rather than down in September.
Sean Comey
My philosophy is to take back the word craft rather than get rid of it. I'm interested in design, art.
Karen Gilbert
We then go through an acquisition process that is rather complicated. It requires not only all the technical evaluations but in addition to that it's important to work with the elected officials to be responsive to the concerns and needs they have.
Lee Tashjian
We thought it better to pull him rather to risk further injury if he continued to wrestle.
Dan Southard
We're all rather surprised about Jean-Marie.
Phil Liggett
New [desktop] search tools aren't just about serving up information, but rather quickly analyzing and digesting the meaning of that information.
Shannon Sullivan
This gives us a second chance to prove that Tampa is a better place, rather than the impression we left. None of the things that happened in the past will happen this time. We'll keep our fingers crossed. But I don't think they will.
Charles Miller
For the meaning of life differs from man to man, from day to day and from hour to hour. What matters, therefore, is not the meaning of life in general but rather the specific meaning of a person's life at a given moment.
Viktor Frankl
The company disclosed one technical covenant breach that appears so small that it raised myriad questions among investors as to why the special dividend was canceled rather than just postponed.
Jake Newman
Mr. Chavez has fed off the people's rage, and it is dangerous to perceive him as a vindicator rather than as a president.
Andres Perez
The great end of education is to discipline rather than to furnish the mind; to train it to the use of its own powers, rather than fill it with the accumulation of others.
Tryon Edwards
Being a professor and working are not the same thing. The academic community is composed largely of nitwits. If I may generalize. People who don't know very much about what matters very much, who view life through literature rather than the other way around.
Robert Parker
I would much rather take a little extra time to make sure we do it right.
Sean Mcmanus
America has never seen itself as a national state like all others, but rather as an experiment in human freedom and democracy.
Brent Scowcroft
If they're not going to play good music, I'd rather him play no music at all.
Danielle Daulton
These tactics are so far backfiring, since UNMEE - rather than the border - is now the focus of international attention, and Eritrea is likely to be cast in the role of aggressor.
Matt Bryden
The problem of power is how to achieve its responsible use rather than its irresponsible and indulgent use - of how to get men of power to live for the public rather than off the public.
Robert F. Kennedy
The greatness of America lies not in being more enlightened than any other nation, but rather in her ability to repair her faults.
Alexis De Tocqueville
Mike Dow deserves more than a nod here. Rather than put (the property) on the market, he wanted to find a way to allow the community to use it.
John Noonan
Rather than thinking about it mechanically, I can go with my instincts. I'm 360 degrees since the day I started last year.
Clarence Curry
I want to put all my efforts into the Commonwealth Games. The World Indoors would be more of a greed thing. When people see dollar signs, it allows them to think about that rather than the bigger picture.
Jade Johnson
I don't interpret this as a sign of recovery in activity. Rather, the increase in unemployment of the last six to eight months has been too brutal and exaggerated not to generate this type of correction.
David Naude
This was an opportunity for them to keep the store going rather than starting up a new store or a new business.
Bill Hewitt
We need to take a little time and do this right, rather than have a knee-jerk reaction based on emotion.
Commissioner Elmo Richardson
It's good to win close games. You learn from close games. I think it's good to learn from them right now rather than to not have close games and then have them at the end of the season.
Derek Coleman
A man who's got a very nice tractor would rather perhaps have it inside with a blanket on it and perhaps put his wife outside.
Bruce Russell
I'd rather forget tonight, but the players and the fans stuck by me. I'll make up for it in Germany.
Djibril Cisse
It may be my rather puritanical upbringing at odds with my inborn laziness that makes me feel guilty at the end of the day, unless I am able to point at some achievement. But this need be no more impressive than cooking a meal or going for a long walk.
Ian McKellen
It was possible that a miracle was not something that happened to you, but rather something that didn't.
Jodi Picoult
They will probably need to do it sooner rather than later if the cycle turns, and the quarter looks much improved for memory, so timing would be good.
Scott Geels
We felt the pressure a lot from their press, and we needed to take our time out there. We needed to use the pass, rather than the dribble, in that first quarter. I think we were just rushing too much.
Phil Johnston
It's somebody staying on the balance beam rather than not staying on it. We have to have a very good meet.
Scott Bauman
The First Law of Journalism: to confirm existing prejudice, rather than contradict it.
Alexander Cockburn
It's different seeing your own hitters. You'd rather see different hitters, but you have to ... be as sharp as you can be. If they need you, it will be a clutch situation.
Neal Cotts
But I am not sure how much someone would be prepared to pay for James River, rather than buying a private company.
Ian Synnott
I'm sure they're going to crowd the box and not give much respect to our passing game. The first win was a much bigger deal (than the first TD pass). To get that first one is a big deal, I'm not going to lie, but I'd rather do the little things, not turn the ball over and help us win.
Alex Smith
These awards are not single season achievement awards, but rather reward coaches for a cumulative career of accomplishments, not necessarily all of which take place on the court or field.
Tim Flannery
For most hedge funds, everything - up and down markets -- should be an opportunity rather than a detriment.
Michael Ocrant
I'd rather make the cut in the Crosby than win another Oscar.
Jack Lemon
John has been designing kitchens forever. We decided rather than having other people build his kitchens we would make them ourselves in our Canada workroom. We've spent years perfecting our finishes there.
Bob Winston
I think it has a huge impact. It's become more important, rather than less, because mass media has become less effective. It's particularly more effective than an advertisement, because people's defenses are down.
Roland Rust
I'd rather get my brains blown out in the wild than wait in terror at the slaughterhouse.
Craig Volk
I'm going to college. I don't care if it ruins my career. I'd rather be smart than a movie star.
Natalie Portman
I would rather discover one true cause than gain the kingdom of Persia.
Democritus
Loss of hope rather than loss of life is what decides the issues of war. But helplessness induces hopelessness.
B. H. Liddell Hart
True popularity comes from acts of kindness rather than acts of stupidity.
Bo Bennett
We learn about these things in elementary school, but as parents we can forget to be teaching our kids about it, too. This gives them an opportunity to act rather than wait idle.
Jenny Pitkin
We are not always going to agree on doctrine, but we need to find more common grounds to serve rather than battlegrounds to divide us.
Fred Woods
My father taught me everything I know about handicapping, so he and I are rather excited.
Jerry O'connell
The outcome may not have been the best, but our girls tend to think it's better to lose by 30, rather than to lose by one.
Bruce Marthaller
I'd rather be known as the guy that won a tournament than the guy that played with Annika. It doesn't bother me, but I guess I have to do something. I have to win.
Dean Wilson
One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.
Henry Miller
I would rather not tell you here things which every German has at heart.
Albert Speer
I would much rather not have to deal with what Carmine has to go through.
Tony Garcia
We remain hopeful that when the attorney general's office has completed its review of the charges against him, it will elect to dismiss this case rather than seek an indictment.
Kevin Marino
A problem with a lot of job titles is that people focus on where the person will fit in, rather than concentrating on what the person is actually going to be doing.
John Lister
To play one of the main characters in it, it's not like the kind of thing you don't do. Oh, I'd rather not play Pippin in "Lord of the Rings". . . . in fact, I'm trying to think - what else would you rather do, you know? I can't actually think of another job that I'd rather do.
Billy Boyd
It is rather a slap in the face.
Maurice Flanagan
I longed to be bright and most certainly never was. I was rather hopeless, I suspect.
Maggie Smith
My mind-set is I'd rather go back out than them tell me I'm done. You can't get better if you don't pitch. It was a tough outing to swallow, but you've got to put it behind you.
Jake Woods
I think the XP issue is a rather small event in the big-picture rivalry between AOL and Microsoft.
Fred Moran
I'd almost rather think she's out there somewhere and not know where she's at than know something terrible has happened.
Shannon Tanner
I would rather see the portrait of a dog that I know, than all the allegorical paintings they can show me in the world.
Samuel Johnson
The thing to emphasize is that we're on a journey, and it's not for the destination. It's where we are, what we're experiencing, rather than trying to click off this place and that place. It isn't getting there, it's the process of being there.
Theresa Mellott
It's been said that nominations are based on performance. But if I'm not on the team now then that's not apparently the case. They should openly tell me that it's not performance but rather that someone can't stand my face.
Christian Woerns
People don't like other poor people, and rather than blame the people that make you all poor, you blame each other.
Johnny Rotten
We'd rather that be left up to the patient and their physician. With this, unfortunately, compromise has to be made in order to get something passed.
Julie Salz Greenstein
Normally, it doesn't influence immediately the assessment. For industrial companies, the impact normally is rather delayed. They don't look so much at the interest rate.
Gernot Nerb
I'd rather be with my unit right now. ... We feel like a real big family.
Christopher Nelson
It is more a change of attitude. Every investment now has to be measured in market terms against targets and expected return rather than alleviation of poverty.
Peter Walker
I'd rather work with someone who's good at their job but doesn't like me, than someone who likes me but is a ninny.
Sam Donaldson
You sometimes need help navigating through that process. And this way, when you call, you're calling a person rather than just asking if there's somebody who can help you.
Chip Cherry
She's a peacemaker rather than a front-and-center creator.
Rose Rosetree
The idea is that rather than knowing that a delivery guy dropped ten cases of cola in the store, they'll know that five cases went on one end-of-aisle display and five cases went on another. They'll know how the product is moving through the store.
Beth Enslow
Fate cast me to play the role of an ugly duckling with no promise of swanning. I have played my life as a comedy rather than the tragedy many would have made of it.
Marie Dressler
I think it's important, because we have so many children, who are, more or less like latch-key children, or children who are on their own. They need a plan. This gives them a plan, rather than keeping all this to themselves, which festers and causes more problems internally. Now they know who to go to for help.
Walter Cunningham
Now that I'm playing middle linebacker, I have a better idea of what's going on around me. I'm more on the same page with everybody. I felt comfortable outside also, but I'd rather be in the middle. I feel like I can make more plays.
Greg Wilkinson
We only live once, but once is enough if we do it right. Live your life with class, dignity, and style so that an exclamation, rather than a question mark signifies it!
Gary Ryan Blair
I'd rather win two or three, lose one, win two or three more. I'm a great believer in things evening out. If you win a whole bunch in a row, somewhere along the line you're going to lose some too.
Walt Alston
We will no longer endure these tactics in silence. It is beyond comprehension that law enforcement authorities prefer to leak information rather than interrogate the persons who they characterize as 'suspects' in this investigation.
Patrick Burke
To be willing to die for an idea is to set a rather high price on conjecture.
Anatole France
You are shooting for a few great weeks rather than counting on winning every week.
Justin Gimelstob
People and things do not upset us, rather we upset ourselves by believing that they can upset us.
Albert Ellis
From my background in construction, where you get paid for what you do rather than hourly, I've become as efficient as anyone can be.
Jerry Parker
I'd rather cede market share at $40 per month, than increase market share at $30 or less.
Thomas Eagan
The reason I?m playing here is because I feel I would rather substitute matches for practice, ... I think it?s really important to be out there in match situations.
Alicia Molik
I would have rather finished the match properly.
Mark Allen
This way I can get an adrenaline rush through the adventure, rather than through drinks and injections as some people do.
Alain Robert
We're looking for technologies or feature sets that give users tools to participate in the media rather than just sit back.
Ross Levinsohn
We are using Tom Wolfe's name as a brand, rather than the title of the book. He is an icon himself.
Tanya Farrell
We must be part of the general staff at the inception, rather than the ambulance drivers at the bitter end.
Lane Kirkland
Rather, we wanted to implement the applications in pieces.
Bob Berckman
The finding we made was that there's insufficient evidence to establish that his father knew. So it was really a not-proven finding rather than a complete exoneration.
Richard Goldstone
India has been so aggressive in bidding for other assets that this is the way to perhaps have the opportunity to make a co-bid rather than fight against them.
Lysle Brinker
Were hopeful they're going to hear the case and not cancel the hearing. If we're going to get an adverse hearing, we'd rather get that sooner than later.
John Stemberger
I don't want a whole meal on my handset. I would rather have an information snack.
David Chamberlain
I would rather put a phial of prussic acid in the hands of a healthy boy or girl than the book in question.
James Douglas
We wanted a fun way to end the silence. Everyone there was having a great time, and rather than just ending the silence by speaking, this was a way to celebrate the day.
David Bass
Fashion is the science of appearance, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.
Henry Fielding
Not win awards, win people. Win audiences. I'm honestly not surprised people like it, but I'm rather startled by the widespread, rapid word-of-mouth. We both believed it would be a film that would eventually find its way.
Diana Ossana
Do not protect yourself by a fence, but rather by your friends.
Czech Proverb
I'd rather they walk on a sidewalk, ... The road's not that wide.
Jean Craig
It is important that they are sporting sanctions rather than fines, which clubs have the means to pay.
Piara Powar
As long as our social order regards the good of institutions rather than the good of men, so long will there be a vocation for the rebel.
Richard Roberts
A lot of people find it interesting as a research tool, but in many cases they would much rather have a kit to modify an atomic force microscope they already own rather than purchasing a whole new instrument just to do dip-pen.
Michael Holman
The graying of America is certain to drive health care costs in the U.S. for at least the next 50 years, ... The challenge we face as advocates is to ensure the pace of research keeps up with the expectations of the American people, so we can ensure the miracles of science are brought to our benefit sooner rather than later.
Daniel Perry
The being without an opinion is so painful to human nature that most people will leap to a hasty opinion rather than undergo it.
Walter Bagehot
They don't try to be Wal-Mart. Small banks recognize they need to specialize, rather than try to offer the full range of products. And specialization leads to more efficiencies.
Keith Leggett
The old man said we are ready to give you the money we use to buy food for our children rather than kneel down because no one should compromise on their rights.
Aziz Dweik
It's a good problem to have. I'd rather have two than none.
Darrell Dickey
If I hadn't of had music in my life, it's quite possible I'd be dead and I'd much rather be alive.
James Hetfield
Individualism is rather like innocence; there must be something unconscious about it.
Louis Kronenberger
Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.
Franz Kafka
Microsoft is much further along than people anticipated and it's clear that it will rely on its own search technology rather than acquiring.
Marianne Wolk
Rather than pull the rug out arbitrarily, we could create a sunset that might be a year away, when the subsidy disappears.
Rep. Richard Woodbury
A good manager is a man who isn't worried about his own career but rather the careers of those who work for him.
H. S. M. Burns
It was a crazy dream, a dream that I never really thought I would be able to realize. Oddly enough it took an art gallery in Paris to make that possible rather than the aviation industry. It really was Boy's Own stuff.
Marc Newson
I will have to make sure that I don't go for too much, too early, but instead wait for the right opportunity. It should be a fun game to play as we both like to use angles, but I am rather taller than him so I will probably be hitting the ball harder.
Andrew Murray
We talked about his toe (and) rather than to keep trying to push it ... we decided to give it the time to get healthy again.
Jim Beattie
We are the products of editing, rather than of authorship.
George Wald
I had rather have a plain, russet-coated Captain, that knows what he fights for, and loves what he knows, than that which you call a Gentle-man and is nothing else.
Oliver Cromwell
I would expect an acquisition out of Citigroup in North America sooner rather than later.
Wayne Bopp
The fact of it is you get to sit and soak things in. It appeals to interests students have, rather than subjecting them to something they have to take.
Andy Heller
It is sad that Mr. Hamilton resorted to conspiracy theories rather than just accept the consequences of his doping.
Terry Madden
I think we need to do that rather than just talk about it.
Yvonne Johnson
I'd rather those conversations between Barry and myself remain private.
Jeff Borris
I would rather be the action than reporting the action, ... Unfortunately, I've played so poorly that reporting is my best alternative.
Paul Azinger
No one knew that the aftermath, rather than being a second-day story, would get worse and worse, ... The worst hasn't happened yet. The story hasn't peaked yet.
Marcy Mcginnis
I would rather be a servant in the house of the Lord than set in the seat of the mighty.
Alben William Barkley
I'd rather have a bad day doing something I like than have a bad day doing something I don't like. We just tried to come in here and compete.
Horace Broadnax
The main difference for the history of the world if I had been shot rather than Kennedy is that Onassis probably wouldn't have married Mrs Khrushchev.
Nikita Khrushchev
I think you kind of hope for people to gush over movies, but I think the opposite way is great sometimes, too. I'd rather have a movie that you're angry about and that you're talking about the next day, than something you forget about when the popcorn goes into the trash.
Gabriel Mann
There had to be something else happening that would explain this discrepancy. Rather than trying to compete, I decided join up.
Christopher Reynolds
[Analysts were stunned by Porsche's move, which they said was a radical departure for a traditionally conservative company.] Porsche told us that they were going to invest back into the company rather than pay higher dividends, ... Now they're investing in one of the least profitable car companies in Europe.
Arndt Ellinghorst
We felt it was important to have our message developed within that community rather than have someone in our office or in the Denver Traffic Safety office develop that message.
Randi Szabo
We know our friends by their defects rather than by their merits.
William Somerset Maugham
Vices are often habits rather than passions.
Antoine Rivarol
It's much better to do some planning rather than just buying. So many times you come home from the nursery and walk around and around the yard saying, 'Where can I plant this?' We really encourage people to plan now and buy later.
Rose Baglia
The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its value.
Charles Dudley Warner
But I have always liked bird dogs rather than kennel-fed dogs myself -- you know, one that will get out and hunt for food rather than sit on his fanny and yell.
Charles Erwin Wilson
Say not, 'I have found the truth,' but rather, 'I have found a truth.'
Kahlil Gibran
The associations are lobbying issues for their membership. The physicians and dentists and ophthalmologists would rather charge retail [rates]. Our program obviously works because the marketplace is expanding all over the country.
Ryan Jumonville
One of the nicest things about NBC is that Tom Brokaw is not Dan Rather.
Michael Gartner
I actually thought there would be less people here than there were. I would still rather watch this than go anywhere else on spring break.
Kyle Nelson
We know we're grown-up guys, and we have families and stuff, but we've taken that as a positive source of art, rather than as a detriment. You know, how we feel about the stuff that we've learned over the lives that we've had, and how we feel about our families. That's where we're writing from, and it's a good thing.
David Crosby
He's got a terrible attitude. Zach's something we'd rather not have. But really, you can tell he's just happy to play. He's playing loose.
Jim Murphy
There's no better game on the season, nobody else we'd rather play. We know it'll absolutely be a battle, but a battle with mutual respect.
John Sales
I would rather prevent what happened than issue an apology afterwards.
Donald Payne
This is a stunning surprise, rather like finding out that the key to your house also works in the ignition of your car.
Francis Collins
If you were plowing a field, which would you rather use? Two strong oxen or 1024 chickens?
Seymore Cray
No disrespect to the other players, ... but there is no other player I'd rather have behind me. I've been blessed to play with a guy like A.J.
Garrett Wolfe
What impressed me about Peter is that although he was a poet himself, he reviewed poetry for the love of the art form, rather than to promote his own work. He was, in fact, always very modest about his own work and very generous and encouraging to other poets.
Irene Clurman
Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.
Bertolt Brecht
We believe in personal choice, rather than society dictating how we must live our lives.
Mike Peters
He's opted not to continue his junior playing career and pursue his life after junior hockey sooner rather than later. It's a disappointment but fortunately the trade didn't involve us giving up a player from our active roster. It's not as though we had Macdonald and then lost a player in the process, or we had him and he left.
Bill Bestwick
I told Erica last year that I would rather be her any day of the week because she's going to win way more races than I ever did.
Tom Martino
What the insurgency is about is not a mystery. It's not a puzzle. They're not hiding it. They're broadcasting it. Let's try to understand it politically, rather than simply have [our] own preconceptions and dismiss it as propaganda.
Rob Malley
We owe it to future generations to work with landowners to enhance rather than destroy our heritage.
Andy Brown
I think there was always rather intense interest at the level of the [HHS] department. Influenza has always been at the very top of my short list of things to be concerned about.
Anthony S. Fauci
It's inevitable that we will some day have a motor fleet that gets 40 miles to the gallon. And if it's inevitable, we ought to be doing it sooner rather than later.
Randy Udall
The happiness of every country depends upon the character of its people, rather than the form of its government.
Thomas C. Haliburton
For the ECB it's about inflation risk management rather than inflation fighting. That's a crucial difference. If it was about fighting inflation, he could be much more aggressive and pre-commit.
Rainer Guntermann
We're an oil and gas company. In times past, when we tried to get into other businesses, we didn't do it well. We'd rather re-invest in what we know.
Dave Gardner
Our knowledge base is still rather fragmentary, and we need another year or two of research before we can say to pharmaceutical companies you should do this or that.
Robert Weinberg
Little towns tend to do a very bad job in these things. They tend to be driven by politics rather than what their own planning staffs may recommend. Another thing: They sometimes just copy what a neighboring community has done, and they have to be so individualized.
Gary Edinger
At least it's here and available rather than having it gone altogether, because that's the other choice.
Valerie Jones
I honestly can say that I would rather be the way that I am. And I'm totally happy - than to be that guy down on the beach. He's having a good time and so am I. Life is good.
Cameron Clapp
What is needed is an all-out science project to get vehicles off of gasoline, rather than off of the earth.
Brad Sherman
There are adjustments that can be made. We'd rather hear from students than see them open windows, because that lets all that warm air outside.
Nathan Prior
Our emergence in the industry standard marketplace may get to the point where we are driving that marketplace rather than being driven by it.
Jonathan Schwartz
Caused excitement recently when he uncovered evidence in China that indicates anthropoid primates may have developed fist in Asia rather than Africa.
John Macarthur
Vietnam is very excited, of course it's too early for us to make any conclusions to say that in Vietnam the situation is under control. But … this rather silent period may indicate, partly, that their commitment paid off.
Dr. Shigeru Omi
We have taken a very hard look at ourselves. ... [The mistakes] are very easy to see now, but rather than dwell on that we're moving forward. We understand what it is we're about to go do.
Leroy Cain
Rather than viewing a brief relapse back to inactivity as a failure, treat it as a challenge and try to get back on track as soon as possible.
Jimmy Connors
I think they're more anxious to get in there and see what they can do against them rather than be tentative because they think a veteran corner will jump them.
Tyrone Calico
I got this rather cross letter, something like, 'Your infernal noisemaking is robbing me and my family of our sanity,' ... It's not as pleasant as some people fantasize, all this wonderful music cascading next door.
Garrick Ohlsson
Thus, there is a high probability that the new parliament, rather than being a venue for discussing development goals, will be an overheated venue for anti-Karzai criticism.
Ahmed Rashid
Not having one voice isn't a weakness; rather we have a lot to pull from.
Jerry Gonzalez
The Central African Republic is free to close its border, but we regard the decision only as a gesture of courtesy with Chad rather than an objective move.
Jamal Mohamed Ibrahim
To follow without halt, one aim; there is the secret of success. And success? What is it? I do not find it in the applause of the theater; it lies rather in the satisfaction of accomplishment.
Anna Pavlova
