Henry Ford

Beware Of entrance to a quarrel; but being in, Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee. Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice; Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment. Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express'd in fancy; rich, not gaudy; For the apparel oft proclaims the man.

Andrew Busch

The starters know that they can come out of the game for a rest, and that the others won't let it slip. The reserve players know that they'll be counted on to help contribute, as well.

Richard Suttmeier

Randy Rosen

Maintenance is for the unexpected repair, while capital reserve is for future projects. There is a limit done by formula. The problem for districts is having the money to put in those reserves.

Matthew Wickens

The fuel in reserve would be owned by the city to be used during a natural catastrophe, terrorist attack, any number of things. If that should happen ... the city would automatically take over the facility.

Robert Fox

Stephen Brown

There's a little more drift to the downside over the next couple of days. We'll probably trade in a range downward unless there is something to indicate no [Federal Reserve] rate hike.

Paul Diamond

If the exchange rate pushes inflation expectations permanently higher, the Reserve Bank will have a tough job on its hands. The market is premature in pricing a near-term easing by the central bank.

The sentiment on interest rates can swing. It really depends on the stance of the Federal Reserve.

Brian Redican

Far better to think historically, to remember the lessons of the past. Thus, far better to conceive of power as consisting in part of the knowledge of when not to use all the power you have. Far better to be one who knows that if you reserve the power not to use all your power, you will lead others far more successfully and well.

A. Bartlett Giamatti

Fresh worries about rising inflation in the US and the extent to which the US Federal Reserve will raise interest rates are weighing down the market heavily.

Francis Lun

What is not appropriate is for the central bank to talk about the details of how the fiscal balance should be achieved. That's a political issue. It's something that the Federal Reserve should not be involved in talking about.

Frederic Mishkin

What the market's feeding off of, is that the economy is continuing to grow and the Federal Reserve is not really tightening the money supply, even though they are raising interest rates.

Jim Welsh

Common experience is the gold reserve which confers an exchange value on the currency which words are; without this reserve of shared experiences, all our pronouncements are checks drawn on insufficient funds.

Rene Daumal

The theory behind previous research is that people with higher education have a higher brain or cognitive reserve, maybe a larger number of brain cells or more efficient brain systems or networks.

Dr Nikolaos Scarmeas

We want to hold or reserve judgment on that until we've been through this, but we know there's growing interest in playing regular-season games.

This is probably the most threatened the Arctic refuge has been since 1960, when it was established as a reserve by President Dwight Eisenhower.

Bill Meadows

We need to be prudent about where our money goes. Our cash reserve balance is the lowest it's ever been and we're expecting to miss our projected cash flow this year.

What we are experiencing now is the best of all possible worlds, but it is an element of concern for the Federal Reserve that we don't spill over from inflation, moderate as it is, to outright deflation, which could be a very dangerous development.

Philip Braverman

These numbers are suggesting that a future Federal Reserve tightening will be coming to a theater near you quite soon.

Anthony Chan

There wasn't all that much of a surprise there. Clearly the risk is still there for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates.

Michael Gregory

Dave Mellor deserves a lot of credit. This isn't the sort of thing where you can just call Home Depot and put in an order. He had the sod on reserve and it was there when we put the order in.

Mike Dee

Our concern we have about the economy is that the Federal Reserve may overdo tightening.

Rod Smyth

There is not a national energy crisis, there is a tight reserve margin which we are addressing.

The near-term inflation outlook will cause the Reserve Bank some short term concern.

Every now and then they'd ask, 'So what do you think of the Federal Reserve?' I wasn't up for the Federal Reserve. It was awful!

The board has generally been very reluctant to dip into the long-term reserve.

Nevertheless, fourth-quarter growth was far more than anybody was looking for, and it is something that's going to keep the (Federal Reserve) on notice that growth is eclipsing their expectations by a visible amount.

Kevin Flanagan

The numbers today raise the odds of a rate cut in January. It looks good for purposes of wondering about the Federal Reserve and what it will do next; it is a signal the Fed is likely to move sooner rather than later.

Paul Christopher

Wall Street has embraced the news in a positive manner, exploiting the fact that the U.S. economy is in robust shape rather than dwelling overly on the fact that this news paves the way for further rate hikes at the Federal Reserve.

Jimmy Yates

He's really been able to establish confidence in the Federal Reserve. He's been able to keep expectations about inflation in check.

Sean Snaith

There is both good and bad news, ... But the big negative from our perspective is the asbestos reserve review. That will leave a cloud over the shares.

Patrick Callahan

Basically, we put millage into building projects, ... We thought we should build up our capital reserve fund so we can better stand the construction once it gets started.

Ray Fleming

We are still seeing solid jobs growth and incomes are improving. That helps demand for housing, along with the Reserve Bank of Australia sitting on its hands for rates.

Brent is a good heads-up player in the outfield. David got a lot of work in a reserve role last year. He was an outstanding pinch hitter for us. He got four or five game-winning hits for us.

The Reserve Bank can just about shut up shop until 2006...the two remaining board meetings (this year) will prove nonevents.

Craig James

Derek Holt

Were we to continue we would have to keep on reserve A$300 million of capital. We just don't want to do that.

Peter Yates

The jobs number was fuzzy, even though on balance it helped to perk up the market, ... Based on that number, the market is now factoring in that the economy is not weak enough for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates in its Sept. 24 meeting.

Alan Ackerman

If the Bank of Canadian continues to hike rates after the Federal Reserve pauses, it will narrow the rate differential between the two. This will make the Canadian dollar more favorable.

Michael Woolfolk

We are in a mess and in a normal situation one would expect that someone at the ministry of finance or the Reserve Bank would get fired for failing to do their job.

Tony Hawkins

These results demonstrate a strong economy in Ontario and our commitment to strong financial management. As we stated in the 2005 budget, the deficit will be eliminated no later than 2008-09, or a year earlier, in 2007-08, if the reserve is not required.

Greg Sorbara

The advice of friends must be received with a judicious reserve; we must not give ourselves up to it and follow it blindly, whether right or wrong.

Pierre Charron

Right now there's concern again reemerging in the market that the Fed (U.S. Federal Reserve) is going to become more aggressive.

Doug Porter

The market is still feeling good after the Federal Reserve minutes yesterday. Between now and the end of the week, we have a lot of economic data coming out.

Duncan Taylor

Any time we do a custom project, we reserve the right to put the developed code into a general product.

Jeff Graham

Wages appear to be at the top of the Reserve Bank's watch- list.

Scott Haslem

That's when the reserve officer went for his weapon, ... And apparently everything got out of control.

David Kramer

Never reveal all of yourself to other people; hold back something in reserve so that people are never quite sure if they really know you.

Michael Korda

The Reserve is at 80 percent staff and National Guard is at 56 percent. There is a great need for chaplains, and the ability to serve families is limited.

Mack Griffith

No one should interpret the remarks as being a prelude for the Federal Reserve raising the Fed funds rate at the December or February meeting. That's not going to happen. If that was going to happen, the chairman wouldn't have made a speech to puncture the exuberance.

Wayne Angell

The suicides were not a reserve issue alone. It's very much a shared issue.

Roxane Snyder

We all discussed this with the Reserve Bank along with our proposed structure and they showed us what is required of banks and how they operate under the Banking Act.

Ratu Osea Gavidi

In these early years, if we keep the Reserve Fund and use that it shouldn't affect our budget. It eventually will if we don't wean ourselves.

Wendy Moore

We always reserve the right to get better.

Michael Callahan

What we're seeing is aggressive taking out of insurance by the Federal Reserve to make sure we don't have anything like the 1920s or 30s happen.

Allen Sinai

The housing group will be fairly stable the next six months, then later will react to opportunities after various regional markets find stable levels. It's looking like the Federal Reserve may be done with raising interest rates in the spring and rates will have peaked, removing the fear that they were going to keep drifting further up.

James Q. Wilson

Some people are very family-oriented and reserve units are in their communities, whereas regular army bases are often in remote or far-away parts of the country. And then there's the whole notion of deploying overseas, which can be unattractive.

David Rudd

U.S. durable goods orders suggest the (U.S. Federal Reserve) is almost certain to raise interest rates two more times. That should support the dollar.

Akifumi Uchida

Win or lose, the money is theirs. Each player, reserve and other members of the rugby delegation will be included in the donation.

Jale Baba

This may be the realization after a long period of time that gold is no longer the bedrock of the world's financial system. And if it's no longer required as a reserve currency, then it makes sense for central banks to reduce their holdings of gold and convert to more profitable investments.

Victor Lazarovici

The fear here is the economy is overheating. And this points to a Federal Reserve with a much tighter monetary policy.

William Sullivan

I hope people will reserve judgment. The indictment represents one side of this thing. We have another side we'll present at the appropriate time.

Joe Hollomon

Increasingly, it seems Asian countries are wanting to slow the pace of reserve accumulation, given how high they have gotten.

This is an industry in crisis. Every oil company will reduce their production forecast as lower spending will immediately be followed by lower production and lower reserve replacement.

Fadel Gheit

When a program has a reserve, that money is for spending.

Jon Slaughter

Interest-rate support for the Australian dollar will lessen quite substantially as the year progresses. We see a steady outlook from the Reserve Bank of Australia and a higher Fed rate.

Sentiment will swing back in favor of a Federal Reserve rate hike in August if June retail sales rebound.

Marc Chandler

We don't have as much home anymore, but there's the exercise room and a community room to reserve when the kids come home.

Rick Sawvell

There is much on the horizon to support household incomes, which may well prevent the slowdown the Reserve Bank expects.

Craig Ebert

We will try to do our best to truly live within the appropriations. If its not sufficient, money will be pulled from the reserve fund.

Steve Kennedy

Since the Reserve Bank of Australia raised rates in March, the housing market has just been going sideways. Rates are on hold until the third quarter of this year.

Michael Every

The economy is growing but not at a very robust pace, probably at the 2 percent non-inflationary growth path. Inflation is very much contained. This is a very good story. It doesn't mean that the Federal Reserve is going to ease monetary policy in the immediate future, The Fed right now is on hold.

Marilyn Schaja

If you've got a loss in refining capacity even if you released oil from the Petroleum Reserve, the fear is that it doesn't have any place to go.

John Kingston

Without question, the rate changes by the Federal Reserve will have influences on peoples lives.

Michael Moran

[The Air Force unit had a mixture of active duty, Air Guard and Air Force Reserve personnel.] The reservists were able to use their civilian occupations while we were deployed, ... We had people from all walks of life that were able to maker things better.

George Campbell

The central bank is an inflation fighter, not a growth defender. It would be nothing short of negligent for the Reserve Bank to move away from a tightening bias.

Stephen Toplis

Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all.

Hypatia of Alexandria

The people that are over in the combat theaters are about half from the Reserve components.

Tim Bowring

The New Zealand dollar is at risk of disappointment at the Reserve Bank of New Zealand meeting and the New Zealand economy is likely to slow sharply next year.

Ashley Davies

The Reserve Bank may shift to a very mild tightening bias which won't be enough to support the Australian dollar while the Fed is pushing up rates.

John Kyriakopoulos

If we do have other funds available, the capital fund reserve will be used for equipment purchases and building renovations.

Nick Morelli

The expenditure formula reflects both regular and special education costs, excluding tuition and assessment costs associated with educating students out of district. It should also exclude land, buildings, capital reserve and debt service.

The market is still expecting two more rate rises from the Federal Reserve, which will keep improving the dollar's rate advantage.

Fumihiko Kawano

For as long as the Federal Reserve maintains its current course of monetary policy.

Michael Farrell

The US Central Command Air Forces is sending 300 Active Duty and Air Force Reserve Airmen home who were assigned to Keesler Air Force Base (in Biloxi, Mississippi) so they can attend to their families' needs after Hurricane Katrina.

David Small

When we'd look at our budget for the last couple years, we were unable to pay our operating services ? standard services? without going into our reserve funds to balance that budget.

Wendy Krajewski

As we stated in the 2005 budget, the deficit will be eliminated no later than 2008-09, or a year earlier, in 2007-08, if the reserve is not required.

Greg Sorbara

The story is one of continuing boom conditions in mining and very strong nonresidential construction activity, ... The Reserve Bank is still very much on hold, watching both the inflation outlook and domestic demand.

Alan Oster

Many a man is praised for his reserve and so-called shyness when he is simply too proud to risk making a fool of himself.

Joseph Priestley

...look at the percentage of reserves held by central banks in gold. It always has had an important role to play in their reserve asset management.

Simon Weeks

It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. For there is a reserve of latent power in the masses which, if it is called into play, the minority can seldom resist. But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.

Lord Acton

We use the reserve games for a reason.

John Ellinger

Clearly you can speculate that 4.75 percent is not the end of Federal Reserve tightening and there is a good argument now that they go to five percent. People don't want to be dollar short at the moment.

Michael Klawitter

The bond market has an influence on the longer term CDs [greater than 12 months], while the shorter term CDs, along with checking and money market accounts, are influenced more by the Federal Reserve.

Randy Rosen

Energy prices really have fallen to a distant second as far as concerns for the market. The big concern is whether the Federal Reserve is going to keep raising interest rates and, if they do, whether that's going to slow the economy too much.

Scott Wren

China's foreign exchange reserve hit 818.9 billion dollars at the end of last year but what China really needs should be no more than 250 billion dollars.

Xiao Zhuoji

People can call as early as they want to that day to reserve a slot for their order. Some will call at 1 in the afternoon and tell us they plan to pick it up at 5 or 7, or whenever they want.

Tracey Renault

Everything out of [Federal Reserve Chairman Alan] Greenspan and the White House has been good. We're at a key inflection point. The fundamental issue is: Are we going to have another Tyco or Enron? And when?

Tim Heekin

If you are Alan Greenspan, it's hard to make a rule that would do any better. On the other hand, we have had 12 chairmen at the Federal Reserve since 1913, and some of them have made massive blunders.

Allen Meltzer

Under a Kerry administration we'd likely have a much more interventionist SPR (Strategic Petroleum Reserve) policy.

Jamal Qureshi

We are fortunate the city is able to release two units, and that we had them in reserve and we could help out, ... We are eager to get them going.

Correggio

His reserve of disdain appears endless. He could no sooner shut it off than a vampire could forgo his nightcap.

R. Z. Sheppard

You look at corporate earnings, and I think the bulls out there are looking ahead and saying this market can go higher. The only thing holding us back right now is the Federal Reserve.

Neil Donahoe

The economy will slow more quickly than the Reserve Bank assumes.

Shamubeel Eaqub

This case is important to help explain the extent of municipal workers' compensation coverage for reserve peace officers, and the financial liability of cities in that regard.

Sam Mamet

Many of these countries are struggling to match rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.

David Gilmore

In order to keep our fleet going, we should rotate some of these vehicles that are 10-years-old into reserve or trade them in.

Dave Long

Signs of financial stress still are present. The persistent interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve and record high gas prices in the third quarter provided a one-two punch that continued to inflict pain on personal budgets.

James Chessen

M&A in insurance was bleak this quarter. Equity market jitters combined with accounting and reserve issues will likely keep M&A sluggish for the next couple of quarters.

Bjorn Turnquist

There's no substitute for these (Reserve and active-duty troops) training alongside each other.

Sam Skinner

The Russian Space Agency is prepared to cooperate with Venezuela in all space projects and is ready to help to train the main and reserve national astronauts.

Anatoly Perminov

With Guard and Reserve units, you can end up with a lot of people from one part of the country dying in one day, and that gets people's attention.

Lawrence Korb

A lot of the good news is already priced into the Canadian dollar. It's possible before the year is out that the hurricane season will be over, the Federal Reserve will still be hiking rates, and oil prices will come off, helping take some of the juice out of the Canadian dollar.

Greg Gibbs

Ahead of the Gulf War the price of crude oil jumped up to about $40 a barrel, but when it was announced they would use the reserve the price immediately plunged back. After that not much was done. The intended objective was accomplished.

Dennis O'brien

The differences in expectations of construction executives versus their peers in other industries is striking. Growth in the construction sector, coupled with higher costs for construction materials and hiring pressures, will be watched closely by the Federal Reserve as it determines future interest rate policy for the economy in general.

Gregg Steinberg

The budget committee felt that we should have some more reserve fund money (emergency or unanticipated expenditures) and added $32,000 to that line item.

Bruce Shull

Forget the interpretations of recession. We're still talking about a relatively stretched economy. There is no justification for the Reserve Bank to abandon the firm interest- rate outlook.

Craig Ebert

This report backs the Reserve Bank remaining on hold ahead. Weakness in retail and transport is being mitigated by a pickup in mining and construction.

Michael Every

The Federal Reserve raising interest rates earlier this month prompted financial institutions to slightly increase interest checking rates.

Randy Rosen

We're in a bit of a hiatus period here. Earnings for the first quarter are out and that's already in the market. The Federal Reserve did what it was going to do and that's in the market and we've got a neutral position in the short term for a lot of stocks.

Phil Roth

The disappointing GDP means the Australian dollar will be vulnerable. This takes the Reserve Bank's finger off the rate trigger and confirms my expectations of no more rate increases this year.

Clifford Bennett

That's a big slowing. It's evidence that the Federal Reserve and Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan are being effective in their efforts to cool the economy.

Amy Cutts

Ohio has 300 years of coal reserve.

Sen. Joy Padgett

This outcome (0.2 per cent growth) makes it more certain the Reserve Bank has finished lifting rates.

Brendan O'donovan

We're assessing information and determining whether there is more tax liability. We reserve the right to take any action we need to get information.

Terry Stanton

Harold feels the company needed to set up an escrow reserve with a local roofing company to cover the normal percentage of defective roof warranties they issued while they were in Jackson.

Larry Butler

Sitting on the market has been this 800-pound gorilla, King Kong of the Federal Reserve, and when you remove this gorilla ... I think stocks can work their way higher.

Jon Brorson

If the Federal Reserve board doesn't cut interest rates, I think we're looking at a 300- maybe even a 400-point drop in our stock market.

Robert Froelich

Businesses will be adding workers, so productivity growth will stay modest in 2006. The increase in unit labor costs is something the Federal Reserve is aware of, and it adds to the case they're going to continue raising rates.

Michelle Girard

The dollar is under pressure. This started early in the Far East, with news of South Korea's plan to change reserve ratios.

Andrew Busch

If the core rate shows lower inflation than expected, it will give a hint that the Federal Reserve is close to the end of its rate hikes, and this would give equity markets a boost overall.

John Person

It is difficult to see the New Zealand dollar stage any kind of sustainable rally. Data is likely to portray softer growth than the Reserve Bank's projections.

Sean Comber

With damage to crude production, releasing oil from the strategic reserve would be a real buffer and could alleviate the situation.

Tor Kartevold

Gas prices are clearly reaching a level where it's a political problem for people, ... unless you empty [the reserve], it is a very temporary expedient. It does not affect the basic supply-and-demand problem.

Daniel Yergin

The New Zealand dollar continues to find friends. The less negative tone of the most recent economic data and a growing realization the Reserve Bank will probably not be easing in the near term have lent support.

Danica Hampton

Philosophy goes no further than probabilities, and in every assertion keeps a doubt in reserve.

James A. Froude

There is such tremendous consensus in the markets that the Federal Reserve will not move rates.

Robert Froelich

We have a 60- to 80-year (limestone) reserve. I think this investment proves our commitment to the community.

Les Geralds

The Federal Reserve must deliver -- again and again -- on its commitment to price stability.

Janet Yellen

It does take a lot of pressure off the Reserve Bank. It's hard to get persistent inflation without wages pressure, and hard to get wages pressure with employment easing.

Stephen Roberts
