We dance in a circle and suppose, while the secret sits in the middle and knows.

Carl Sandburg
He seemed like a cool person to me. He sits by the benches with us while we are playing.
Ashley Johnson
He makes his way around the clinic and we rarely see him run into things. He still goes in the lobby and hops on benches and greets people as they come in. He sits back and senses if he should approach when a dog comes in; he will make a judgment call. If it's a high-energy dog, bouncing around, he'll leave.
Connie Maute
You might think that since you are a busy, active family that an active dog might best suit your needs. But if your activities mainly consist of going to soccer and ballet practice while the dog sits at home by itself, that most likely isn't a good fit.
Stephanie Shan
Sometimes I sits and thinks, and sometimes I just sits.
Satchel Paige
We are struggling getting guys in. We had runners all over the place and guys aren't scoring. Leaving guys on base is not something that sits well in my bones. We have to fix that and get guys in and be aggressive.
Darrell Butler

Richard Kissel
He just kind of sits there, and he sleeps a lot. Poppy is being really good with him.
Jessica Hardy

Lauren Traczykowski
Is it a man walking on the beach, winking at the girls and looking for going to bed? Is it someone who wears a lot of gold chains and rings and sits at the bar? Because this is not me! I am very, very Latin, but not so much lover.
Antonio Banderas
So this new government committee is still limited to what it can really get accomplished. I think if the minister sits to the table and negotiates in good faith with the union…we could do this more expeditiously.
John Pinder
Because we have a dome now, instead of a flat roof, the telescope sits a lot higher on its mount. They built a platform that surrounds the base so that it is the perfect height for students to look into it.
Steve Lemoine
The bacteria gets in their mouth and it sits there. It's nasty. But humans are not on their dinner list.
Mark Schick
Having another set of eyes on the bench with me is unbelievable. She's picking out things for me, and we truly coach as a team. I sit on her bench, she sits on mine and we listen to each other.
Reid Hoffer
He's a cat's cat, he climbs trees and sits on people's roofs but now he's forced to be in the house all the time.
Ruth Cisero

John Young
He speaks when he's got something to say and when he does, everybody sits up and listens. He does a lot of little things that add up to big benefits for our club.

Virginia Woolf

Nadine Boon
I am not the type who sits back and accepts life. That's someone else not me.
James Holzier
There are federal judges who have ruled elsewhere in the U.S. the exact opposite of the way this federal judge has, ... this case only affects the area of California in which he [the judge] sits.
Andrew Napolitano
When it rains here, it pours. Because our soil has a lot of clay in it, the water just sits on top. You need rain gutters to get it away from the house foundation. They protect the concrete, siding and walkways around your house.
David Dewitt
This is not going to be something where a jury sits down in a jury box with a clean slate, listens to only the admissible evidence and then makes a decision. That's not this case.
Marvin Miller
If you have six chairs open, you need 12 guards on duty. One sits in the chair, and the other patrols the beach.
Kelly King

Dick Gregory
[John Montgomery, director for the Developer Division at Microsoft, laid it out even more simply.] The story, in a nutshell, is there's a complex ecosystem that sits around developing applications and making money off of them, ... And Microsoft has shown itself [to be] pretty good time and again at figuring out how people can make money off of its products.
John Montgomery
I'm board-certified in juvenile law. The county judge sits as chairman of the juvenile board, so I can be a benefit in that regard. As a lawyer, I can better understand the contracts and legal issues that come before the Commissioners Court. There are probate matters, guardianships, and mental health commitments. Those encompass at least a day or two in court (per week).
Joel Baker
It's a unique bar. The room was originally a 1910 train station passenger lounge, and it's got a 35-foot-high dome, all done in the original architecture. The bar will seat 22 and is an 8-by-16-foot rectangle that sits directly under the dome.
Karl Pastie
We reserve the ultimate punishment ... for the worst of the worst. And folks, he still sits right in front of you without a shred of remorse.
Richard Conway
Kenyon Martin is sitting on the bench when a fan begins to heckle him. Martin stands up, turns around and addresses the fan. Then he sits back down.
Detective Virginia Lopez
I don't think you ever forget it, really. It's one of those things that sits with you, and it makes you work harder to get back, especially when you lose like that.
John Goldsberry
The story in a nutshell is there's a complex ecosystem that sits around developing applications and making money off of them ? And Microsoft has shown itself pretty good time and again at figuring out how people can make money off of its products.
John Montgomery
One of the criticisms in the 9/11 Commission's report is [that] agencies failed to connect the dots [and] bring pieces of information together that possibly would have prevented the 9/11 attacks. [Today] when somebody sits down at a computer and starts trying to check information, there are too many places to look.
Bob Fox
What I'd like to do for summer is bring in some color, but always keep the grey, ... Because right now, the collection sits on the edge between lifestyle and fashion but the minute it goes over to fashion, it kind of loses the lifestyle feeling.
Norma Kamali
Nobody sits down together here. When do people sit down and enjoy each other?
Gabriela Forte
We've definitely had some significant beach erosion. The longer the storm sits, the worse the damage.
Scott Petersohn
Reno sits or lays down at the area where the drugs are located. A dog who has been trained for aggressive response will scratch at the location, which often leaves marks on vehicles.
Mike Bloomer
I think the best analogy is the pair of law school students where one sits for the Bar exam and the other doesn't. Who are you going to choose for your lawyer?
Joe Bittner
I've known Jerry a long time, and he isn't a guy who sits back, or tries to 'get along' with everybody. He's a pleasant enough fellow, but if he's unhappy about something he's going to blurt it out.
Gerald Meyers
It's difficult, obviously, when you have a course that sits out here with different wind conditions than the other three. Being able to adapt and able to strategize based upon the wind, I think, is the key here.
Tom Pernice Jr.
The glittering structure of her cultivation sits on her novels like a rather showy icing that detracts from the cake beneath.
Louis Auchincloss
CH5+ has five hydrogen atoms scrambling around a carbon atom that sits at the center.
Anne B. Mccoy
At this point, Michael's better. Marcus still has some growing to do as a player. But Marcus is a better passer, he sits in the pocket more and looks like a quarterback. Michael looks like a running back playing quarterback.
Brandon Meriweather
Tankers would pass right over the area where the ferry now sits.
Bruce Hill
We've had people tell us that they have roomfuls of stuff that they've set aside for selling on eBay, but the reality is it never gets done. And every day that it sits there, it's losing value.
David Chen
We have space planning consultants working with us that have been looking at the layout of Paley and where it sits on the campus.
Carol Lang
Haven't you felt a peculiar sort of worry about the chair in your living room that no one sits in?
Nicholson Baker
We made all the iron that the cushion sits on, and the outside of the aisle. The inside of the aisle comes from China. That's a pretty labor-intensive casting.
Jim Gartland
We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it--and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove lid. She will never sit on a hot stove lid again--and that is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one anymore.
Mark Twain
If they don't move to a neutral position, the bond market will react negatively. If the Fed sits there and reiterates the same risk on inflation, the bond market is going to look at this and say the Fed is way behind the curve.
John Silvia
Horses run for him. I don't know if he knows what he's doing or is just a natural. He's learning quicker than most bug boys. He sits on a horse good. He pays attention and listens.
Roberto Gonzalez
She tells us to order from Taco Bell and she sits there and likes to smell and see the food.
Jenn Davis
He sits at the kitchen table, which is the only authentic way to touch down at home in Queens.
Francis X. Clines
These are 10- to 12-foot (3- to 4-meter) waves. They can literally pile-drive you into the bottom. The longer it sits nearly stationary, the more problems it's going to cause in the long run.
Scott Petersohn
She sits next to the head of state at every dinner.
Letitia Baldrige
He has the ability to score, the question is if he can do enough of the other things to get playing time. You score when your coach is confident enough to put you out there enough to let you score. The bottom line is all he has to do is be a little responsible. I'm not asking him to check the No. 1 center in the league. If he sits in his end even a little bit, he'll be OK.
Mike Babcock
This is a big win for us. It gives us a stranglehold on the conference (Sandburg sits atop its conference with a 5-0 mark and is 7-3-1 overall). We still have our work cut out for us though, when we play Stagg.
Brian Boll
The coach is pretty confident about where he sits and what he needs to do. I heard a presentation he made recently about the club's future. It was very impressive. He's got a fantastic plan and he'll stick with it.
David Parkin
What our trainer said is that he thinks if she sits out for a few days, she'll be good to go. I think it's more of a bruise than anything.
Theresa Adams
It's a funny feeling without him being there. He sits in the same spot every day, and he's not there. It's kind of awkward for us now.
Justin Cage
[Leningrad] sits astride the Neva, frozen in time, a haunting mélange of pale hues, glorious façades and teeming ghosts.
Serge Schmemann
Unless the audience sits through the credits, they're going to assume it's Wyoming. This has a great impact on us.
Michell Howard
It's very high margin. And Yahoo! just sits and waits for the checks.
Martin Pyykkonen
It has an automatic reset on it, in case somebody forgets to reset it after they have locked it off, ... The first time a person sits in it, through the use of gravity, it automatically resets itself.
Jerry Ford
It sits in a bowl. When we have hurricanes, it floods.
Dan Mcintyre
No matter what way she runs it, whether she sits in or goes from the front at about half distance, I just can't see anybody beating her. She must have been sitting there this week feeling very confident and just looking forward to it.
Liz Mccolgan
He just sits there and smiles through all this.
Tammy Porter
It sits as a force in your hand. You can change stations with a button. You change advertisers' income. You force networks to think about every fifteen minutes of programming now.
Don Hewitt
I wanted to do it in the best possible way with great integrity - get rid of the bits where the audience sits through and yawns and keep it moving but not Reader's Digest.
Martin Fredmann
There is a lot of gas-fired capacity that sits around not getting used. That could end up being an important factor over the next decade.
Martin Edwards
Wisdom sits aloneTopmost in Heaven.
Nathaniel Parker Willis
I like to see somebody who sits on the front of the chair when they're talking about something they care about.
David Russo
Garrett, of course, has had his struggles, but he is a super jockey. I've always had faith in him and when I heard he was coming back, I called him and told him that I'd always have a spot for him. He has great hands and he sits quiet on a horse.
Beau Greely
Everyone sits on the floor to have food, whether you are a king or a pauper. You are supposed to be eating a holy meal with your brothers and sisters and don't need the luxury of eating meat. It is not necessary here. So why do it? We are allowed to eat meat at home. It is not forbidden.
Priya Paul
Superstition Vistas sits out there vacant, not because there aren't buyers for it, but because we can't plan it. We don't have the money. Our inability to plan the land has caused development to leap over it. That's not supposed to happen.
Mark Winkleman
After a year of transformation Foster's Group sits at the doorstep of a period of sustained strong earnings growth.
Trevor O'hoy
She sits down and plays defense. She has good timing on steals. She is able to contain people on the perimeter and gets a lot of five-seconds calls because of her pressure defense.
Kerri Brown
You may have mistaken this for your meeting of the ignorant tight-asses club but in this building, when the President stands, nobody sits.
Martin Sheen
Is fine the way it sits.
Thomas White
He sits there with a lot of lino and a very sharp little chisel and cuts out those incredibly detailed little lines and gouge marks. That's really taking it back to the processes of [German Renaissance artist] Albrecht Durer, a simple technique that makes very complex images.
Roger Butler
The new Tennessee location sits in a strong labor market and has an extensive transportation network to support our growth businesses.
Paul Hanlon
We've got a group of guys that comes in for breakfast that sits at the middle table and they were discussing (the team). How hard they play. They say they just play their little hearts out.
Shirley Bailey
When somebody sits and tells you that you can't do this and that, or that you cost the team because of this and that, he hasn't let it get to him. Which, I think, is what people are trying to do.
Ted Sundquist
That is a burden not just on people struggling to make ends meet, it becomes a burden on taxpayers, it becomes a burden on communities, and Wal-Mart sits back and counts their billions.
Tracy Sefl
China sits in the United Nations and they are the determining influence of our foreign policy.
Alberto Romulo
When a pianist sits down and does a virtuoso performance he is in a technical sense transmitting more information to a machine than any other human activity involving machinery allows.
Robert Moog
We are also receiving help from many other church members of other denominations throughout the community. The mobile cannery sits out here and people see it. Some people just stop and want to help.
Jeff Lehman
There is no excuse for Wyoming to be so far behind, 20 years behind, in the energy race when your senator sits on the Senate energy committee.
Dale Groutage
Rather do what is nothing in the purpose than to be idle, that the devil may find thee doing. The bird that sits is easily shot when the fliers escape the fowler. Idleness is the Dead Sea that swallows all the virtues, and is the self-made sepulcher of a living man.
Francis Quarles
Some say the church experience has lots of flash and very little depth, or in other words, a mile wide and an inch deep. But many (large churches) have small groups, and that's the key. You can't preach to a crowd of 1,400. The worship becomes a performance and the crowd sits there, very few people are active.
Albert Miller
It sits on an east-west axis, so the sun comes in all day long through floor to ceiling windows.
Barbara Candee
My mom's house, which had no water because it sits up really high, she's got no water in the house, but the oak tree in the front yard fell and landed on top of her car and smashed her car in half. It smashed two of her neighbor's cars and her neighbor's house.
Jonathan Ruffin
At the moment we think AU$1.01 is a fair price for the information we have had available to us prior and post bid, so that is where it sits at the moment.
Adrian Coote
The hare sits snug in leaves and grass, / And laughs to see the green man pass.
Heinrich Hoffman
There has to be a better understanding of where the athletic department sits in the university scheme of things.
John Gerdy
It's pretty big. It's got 41 buildings which contain 468 apartment units, and it sits on 21 acres.
Dave Parker
For they say there's a Providence sits up aloft,/ To keep watch for the life of poor Jack!
Charles Dibdin
The NCAA sits there and says, 'Hey, you can't make any money. And then it's, 'Oh, by the way, good luck trying to sue us because we'll drag you down on the legal expenses.' That's how much money they've got. At that point, Jeremy got himself into a hole.
Andy Carroll
One's need for loneliness is not satisfied if one sits at a table alone. There must be empty chairs as well.
Karl Kraus
Religion is not ours till we live by it, till it is the Religion of our thoughts, words, and actions, till it goes with us into every place, sits uppermost on every occasion, and forms and governs our hopes and fears, our cares and pleasures.
William Law
One sits the whole day at the desk and appetite is standing next to me. "Away with you," I say. But Comrade Appetite does not budge from the spot.
Leonid Brezhnev
I'm a fan, not a spectator, and there's a huge difference. A spectator sits and merely observes, but a fan is someone who gets into a game and tries to help his team win.
Lance Smith
One hundred and fifty thousand Cambodian people in the United States now were either born in a refugee camp or their parents were born in a refugee camp. The person that sits next to you in class may be a refugee.
Sarun Chan
It wasn't until they mentioned [these behaviors] to us in the training that we all went, 'Wow'. None of us had experience where we noticed someone was being physically abused. But with a number of people, it was more mental abuse. A guy comes in and sits next to his wife while she's having her hair done. It's kind of creepy.
Linda Rutherford
Possibly he knew, as he wrote this, that he was mad - because inside every madman sits a little sane man saying 'You're mad, you're mad.
Graham Swift
I love to deal with people. I'm not the kind of person who sits behind a desk all day.
Kathy Barnes
He sits there and absorbs everything and does better than us on calculus tests.
Jeff Bolling
The staff sits in and hears things from the patients' perspective.
Rhonda Bright
That's now becoming more well known so that when a landowner sits down with a tax adviser and says, 'I wish I could preserve my property,' a light bulb goes on in their head.
Michael Nardolilli
We really don't go into market areas and try to convince people that they need to be building hospitals. Rockwall Hospitals Inc. goes in at the invitation of physician groups, sits down with them and helps them develop whatever plan or vision they may have for their various communities.
Terry Fontenot
Everybody sits around a table, with the judge seated at the head.
Michael Woods
He handles himself very well with people, and he rides a very, very clever race. He lets horses run away from the gate, and he places them. And then he sits still, and he watches. If somebody goes outside, he goes inside. Or somebody goes inside, he goes outside. He knows how to cover all bases.
Steve Bass
I get out there once in a while. I don't want to be the old guy who sits in the corner, and everyone wonders what he's doing there.
Ernie Harwell
He was very generous to me. It was extremely beneficial because you can always learn some things that are not on the page or not expressed - things that he might say, or things that he might not say. It all sits in your subconscious and affects the character in the end. So being able to meet with him was very, very interesting.
Eric Bana
They don't really know who they are until someone sits them down and gives them the chance to think about it.
