We are selling vodka left over from last year but those stocks are getting smaller all the time.

Vera Bragina

That's the challenge for Seattle. There's new competition on the horizon. It's more likely to come from a smaller market.

John Boyd

The bigger-is-better form of evangelism may have past. The emerging generation has been so advertised, media-tised and oversold that the smaller, quieter and more authentic is the growing edge of their experience.

Craig Detweiler

The values are in the smaller companies.

Lou Dobbs

Many of the plans that set out into this market, set out with expectations that they would have a larger base of beneficiaries. I do expect you will see some of the smaller, newer plans dropping out.

Dan Mendelson

When you want to save money for seniors, that may mean smaller profits for drug stores.

Mark Merritt

We're trying to raise a lot of money for Easter Seals and the reason why we're doing it is when Rick was smaller he used to go to the swim program, all the different camps, and we just feel it's payback time for all the things Easter Seals has done for Rick.

Dick Hoyt

We're hoping to find someone who might have been caught in a spot where there was some air, ... But ... as we get farther down and (the search area becomes smaller) it does become less of a possibility that they'll be alive.

Thomas Von Essen

What we're finding is that there are some smaller stores that go away when the big boxes move in, but for the most part, they are the marginal operations that would have gone away anyway.

Scott Wright

The survey also underscored the fact that smaller firms are also catching up with large-sized firms in terms of improvement in business sentiment.

Osamu Katano

Segment your architecture so you have lots of smaller machines ... handling one application.

Dan Woods

A simple thing that people can do is look at the dishes that you have at home. Your cups, glasses, and bowl sizes and use smaller ones. Getting smaller ones is an excellent strategy to loose weight and keep it off.

Regina Dick

When they've got a smaller block, Debbie handles it pretty well. Christina played great on the left side. She had eight kills in two games with only one error. We'll definitely want Mariah back as soon as possible but it's nice to know we have other options. I also thought Ashley Miller did a nice job for us defensively tonight.

Travis Hull

We have a much smaller team this year, so I've made some changes to our offense. We will be speeding our offensive attack at times to keep our opponent off guard.

Terry Borkovic

Whereas there's a wealth of galleries in Australia, everyone's got a gallery in Australia or wants your work. Because the art scene is smaller in Indonesia, there's not so much competition.

Andrew Jack

It's gotten out of control. It's taking bigger and bigger names to make smaller and smaller films. I worry that important films without a big name attached won't get made at all.

Glenn Close

Not only does it play as a mobility domain for domain, authentication and RF management, but we introduced some new features that make it more attractive not only to enterprise customers but also smaller businesses interested in wireless switching.

Howard Rubin

This season has really been different coming off the national championship. It's actually been a lot easier. Initially, the fans' reaction was to go get another one, not understanding how big a deal that is. We've kept things in perspective, setting smaller goals and then larger ones.

Chameka Scott

The movement to notebooks for people who are largely not mobile workers and were doing it because of lower heat and smaller space requirements, that part of the trend flattened out a bit as we got to very small form factor desktops and LCD monitors becoming more affordable.

Peter Sutherland

The answer obviously has to be in diversifying the customer set, drilling down deeper into the smaller and medium-sized companies.

Bob Djurdjevic

I think the overwhelming likelihood is that in the next Congress, you'll see even smaller majorities than we have now. And we weren't really able to get anything done in the last few years.

Ron Brownstein

We're 99 percent committed to continue with a smaller show, but we'll make the final decision in two weeks.

Chip Decker

We are arriving at a new frontier in our pursuit of ever-smaller structures.

Lloyd Smith

In the past, this role was common in areas of smaller population, where priest shortage was more prevalent. But now you are starting to see this role in heavier populated areas.

Mary Foley

In the 1980s, we responded to what we were seeing in the market from an investment opportunity point of view. We really were developing this practice on our own. It was complementary to PNC's focus on the smaller end of the middle market, but in terms of our context, we were building sources for deals and deal referrals on our own.

David Blair

It's not need; they have smaller families. It's lifestyle.

Gopal Ahluwalia

The next acquisition may more likely come in, say, the U.S., in a community, a similar style business, probably a smaller size.

Roger Burrows

We're developing robots that will cost $150-7,000. They are a smaller, but smarter approach to farming than current machinery.

Tony Grift

I can play anywhere on the court. Going against bigger guys, I can often drive past them and get good shots. If a smaller guard is on me, I can turn my back, post them up and get good looks.

Taurean Temple

They [the disabled] are often taken advantage of, and are forced to work for longer hours for smaller salaries.

Sahar Tabaja

I just think the smaller schools have caught up to the larger schools. The top teams have two or three good players. In the old days there was players like Magic or Michael Jordan, a real good player that could carry a team.

Jeff Rivero

This transaction is a good fit for the long-term strategies of both BP and Apache. Though we are much smaller than BP, we share its desire to focus capital and talented professionals on assets that will provide the maximum return for shareholders.

Raymond Plank

We were one of the first in the area to offer the service. The computers allowed us to take smaller samples and, in turn, save more lives.

Virgil Kelly

They're definitely smaller. The pace is a little slower.

Jackie Herbach

It's been a tradition for years. There used to be a lot of us that would come out. Now it seems the older we get, the smaller the group.

Mike Barthole

The whales are so many. They eat all the smaller fish and we fish all the smaller fish.

Oscar Robertson

While it is easier to set up internet-based businesses now, a certain level of technical knowledge and investment is required, but a minority of smaller businesses are still learning these disciplines.

Chris Potter

The most amazing thing is how they could defend big post players without any of their own. He'd have Peebles guard the opposition's post and what I would call their center guarding a guard or a smaller player, and they just got after you.

Vic Binkley

It's literally a lack of people. Baby boomers are getting older and retiring and people are having smaller families.

Shannon Martin

We started connecting with some of our passes. It's tough on this field because it's smaller, but we made the passes we needed to and made the most of our chances.

Dan Favreau

The character, a poor factory girl, would have something much smaller, much simpler.

Francesca Zambello

Given the strong consumer sentiment, merchants have been offering much smaller discount or even no discount compared with last year.

Daniel Chan

I'm really concerned about the deficit. It's much too large and it has to become smaller.

Robert Kimmitt

You know what you want and you go in and get it. If you need more time, explanation, help with your financial goals, these smaller banks can help you, but they may not be able to offer the Wal-Mart pricing.

Sir John Holt

Many exploration projects require a gold price of $350 or higher to be profitable, and I believe that larger companies will look to grow through acquisitions of other smaller companies which are making money, have mines, and ongoing projects. The trend will continue.

Amaury De Barros Conti

Jessy gave us the offense off the bench when we needed it. I put him in for our center (McNair) and it gave us a smaller and quicker team.

Vic Ortiz

I'm going with a smaller, more gas efficient car.

John Kim

[When Confidential magazine published a story in 1955 that implied he was gay,] I wasn't angry, I was more fearful, ... I had very, very few close friends and even a smaller number knew what my sexuality was.

Tab Hunter

It's a part of history. Where we lived in Ireland these boats plied the waters like for hundreds of years. We used to sail them as kids, nearly everybody had one of these boats only smaller.

Steve Mulkerrins

GM's announced plant closings do little to address the underlying problems, ... It will be smaller, but its per-unit costs will still be too high to compete.

Peter Morici

There is no question that films that we would have considered viable just a few seasons ago are too risky to undertake these days, ... Small films are smaller than ever and titles that would have done decently a few years back would almost certainly be doomed to abject failure these days.

Mark Urman

We started with a smaller class in August. Adding some (students) in February won't be precipitous.

John Towers

I think a sheriff must be street smart. In smaller departments like Geneva County, the sheriff is the one to train the deputies.

Greg Ward

The Iranian issue is hanging over the market. There's a big bogey there in the form of Iran and these smaller issues that are making real impinges on supply.

Tobin Gorey

It might end up being smaller than that.

Justin Mcnaull

It wasn't as good as expected but it doesn't change the outlook for the economy. The impression is that the recovery is spreading to smaller companies.

Seiji Adachi

Robert Morris is a smaller team and we could have used John, but I needed to make sure all my players know that is not how we do things here. The immediate impact might hurt us, but as a coach you have to think about the future and that is what I am doing. It will hurt, though.

Dave Calloway

I think if you lower the limits on money it would encourage our elected officials to get into their districts, ... to interact with the average citizen to encourage more people to contribute smaller amounts to get their message across.

Rufus Jones

We're not sitting on our hands waiting for someone to hand us money. With smaller watershed groups and state and local government being open to new ideas, our job is to see that other solutions are being put into practice.

Tom Rathbun

No-cost loans are pretty popular right now, especially for people with larger loans. The larger your loan, the smaller the penalty for no-cost loans.

Chris Larsen

It is now possible to distribute high quality programming that has been produced by much smaller entities.

Jeremy Allaire

He was all over the field in that game. Notre Dame took the attitude at that time that they were going to run the ball with Air Force being smaller on defense. But that's what Anthony takes pride in -- being a great run-defender. We tried to free him as much as possible.

Jappy Oliver

A big man who's athletic will eventually wear down a smaller man but if you have a big man that can't stay on his feet, can't get to the ball, who is always on the ground, then you have problems. You can't play with guys like that. There's a fine line between the good players.

Jay Hayes

There's consensus. There's clarity. There's cash. There is much better coordination. We should be able to deal with the bird flu epidemic much quicker and ... if the pandemic comes, it will be smaller as a result of what's gone on at this meeting.

David Nabarro

Motorola is putting up a good fight - the only real challenger to Nokia, while the other smaller players are falling behind.

Jussi Hyoty

After consulting with all of the school districts in my Assembly district and talking with parents that have school aged children, I have decided to introduce legislation that will continue to increase the cap on open enrollment, ... This bill will help smaller rural schools where students currently enjoy small class sizes.

Brett Davis

I would guess that the percent of women practicing law in Athens is smaller than the percent in law school, but I think if you looked at it on a larger basis, it probably isn't substantially different.

Beth Ferrier

I've been back there with smaller guards. It's exciting because you have two guys that can play defense and really get the offense going. Lindsey's experienced and it helps me out when I'm on the court because he can help me with the plays.

Tony Delk

We have put farm raised channel catfish in the large one and are expecting another load of fish Thursday. The large lake has three springs feeding it. The smaller one relies on rain water, but it is almost full.

Dawn Kelsch

Especially smaller sports like baseball with coach Chris Wells and basketball with Greg Elliott, where you have like 15 guys, they are brutal. They know all the kids' teachers.

Obie Schramm

The Houston Endowment is smaller in scope than UT-Austin, but the activity is large, ... It is extremely important to the education scene, the arts scene and the medical scene in Greater Houston.

Larry Faulkner

We've already felt the ripple effect of donations leaving, ... I was in New York when 9/11 happened and many smaller, local nonprofits actually folded. We need help now more than ever.

Vicki Lutz

It's really quite an eerie sound to hear the Earth ripping apart like that. We hear it on smaller earthquakes quite frequently but something of this scale that goes on for eight minutes is very much unprecedented.

Maya Tolstoy

We're going after the incentives market, and we're going to be going after the smaller, upscale groups business.

Rob Varley

With a smaller browser, you leave more room in your RAM [random-access memory] for data. And with the file size as small, it opens the door for Opera to run on smaller devices.

Jon Von Tetzchner

I know it's good when I see a smaller film get recognized because it means more publicity for them. When you start producing and directing the movies become a little more like your children.

Campbell Scott

I used a scroll saw for cutting out the legs and the edges for the top of the bench, and a table saw to cut the wood into smaller pieces. Then I used a belt sander to sand it down.

Marla Sacks

I know for a fact that most of our smaller wineries would have to close up under provisions of that bill.

Rick Coates

On the one hand, this is good news for the community that it was a relatively smaller number than anticipated. Now, the question is, are these jobs only the beginning? Honestly, I was surprised. I thought the number would be in the thousands.

Jim Jacobs

I'd much rather hit. I hated pitching, ... When you have my dad's name on your back, it's like wearing a bull's-eye. It's smaller if you're not on the mound.

Koby Clemens

If you choose to be an independent community hospital you have to figure out how you're going to deal with ... the fact that you're smaller.

Robert Morrison

The smaller the town, the better the food and the more you get.

Gayden Metcalfe

My philosophy is that small is beautiful. Instead of having one $70 million company, we will have smaller units that will operate as separate businesses. These changes will allow Morningstar to be more nimble in responding to the needs of investors.

Joe Mansueto

I'm not trying to turn the J. Garcia brand into something you find at Target, but I am trying to broaden it. There are J. Garcia carpets that my mother would be happy to have in her house, and she's not a Deadhead. If you were to position it only for people who were fans of Jerry's music, it would be a much smaller market than what we're going for.

Christopher Sabec

That means the acoustical beam has to be smaller.

Jim Larsen

We have had as many as nine or 10 smaller children in it at one time. We have had everything from a 400-pound man to a 9-month-old baby in the chair.

Francis Skrenes

There is a smaller margin for error today in hiring and promoting people into key positions, and a greater need to target development efforts to ensure that they really make a difference. A bad senior-level hire or promotion can severely damage a company's external brand, affecting customer trust and loyalty, and resulting in lost commercial opportunity.

Brian Clapp

They're going to have to wrestle well, but they all could place. Right now, they're in the top 32 in the state and every match they win that number gets smaller. It's a good accomplishment to get to the final 32, but let's build on it.

Mat Sprague

You've got to prove yourself when you're a little bit smaller, because the first thing when you do something wrong they're going to say it's because of your size or something like that. You're going to have to prove yourself and show you can play with anybody.

Sam Olajubutu

Their budgets are much smaller than ours and they don't have an airport of our capacity.

Yvonne Hester

We think we can keep everything in there, just a smaller portion of it.

Bob Consalvo

In real estate terms, 90% of all transactions are 10,000 square foot deals or smaller.

Ron Bowman

We knew they (South Carolina State) were smaller. We wanted to get the ball inside and take advantage of our size.

Debra Clark

This decrease is largely due to smaller-than-expected fruit size.

Andy Lavigne

The houses that are built have to look like the other houses. They can be smaller, but everything has to look the same because you want the individuals who live in the houses to be part of the community.

Shirley Wilkins

I think gas consumption may be an element, but accessibility is the primary reason for considering smaller shuttle-type buses.

Jayme Kunz

We found that, on average, men aged 64 years have smaller brains than men aged 60. However, despite this shrinkage, cognitive functions -- like memory, attention and speed of processing -- are unaffected.

Helen Christensen

I've asked the sheriff, and he told me I don't need a motorcycle license for the smaller one, and I take his word for it. The bike is a fun, quick way to get around. It gets about 70 miles to the gallon, so it's economical, too.

Bo Dedeker

In all of the options there is a range — we looked at smaller- and larger-sized elementary buildings.

Steve Bauserman

Interconnects and file systems are critical to what we do, the availability of a smaller advanced development system will ensure our users a positive first experience when they get onto the larger production machines.

Tom Kendall

We are creating smaller camps at parish level.

Felix Kulayigye

We live in a smaller and smaller world, but the capacity to misunderstand each other is enormous.

Kishore Mahbubani

We're talking about a smaller city, but a safer and hopefully more sustainable one, ... The alternative is to continue as we are, losing 60 acres (of wetlands) a day. By 2090, New Orleans would be exposed to the open sea, with no protection at all.

John Rennie

The new rule will allow them to keep up to three of these smaller fish while protecting the rare ones that fall into the middle range. Right now, Lake Kerr anglers are catching bass all day long that are less than 14 inches, but few in the 15- to 24-inch range.

Sam Mckinney

All the consequences of global warming will occur more rapidly. That's the scary thing: the amount of time we have got to do something about it is smaller than we thought.

Guy Kirk

For all kinds of reasons, the labor pool is smaller.

Bill Caylor

Banks tend to shy away from smaller loans, startups, certain 'riskier' industries, or less than perfect credit scores. A brand-new business, running for a month, few banks want to take that on.

Luz Gomez

Credit unions and smaller banks were actually quicker than most large banks to offer online services because of the relationship they had with vendors and their capability to integrate web operations into their systems at a reasonable sum. A bank like Citibank had to do a huge internal thing to get the system up.

Jim Bruene

There is some fabulous new work being done here, especially by some of the smaller companies, ... But without the classics, you are really working in imitation of your own current culture, and the work of others who are working in imitation of their own current culture.

John Wright

This new regulatory regime for cable could potentially have devastating impacts for our proverbial 500-channel universe of diverse cable offerings. It very well could be the case that government regulation here could destroy that diversity and drive out some of the smaller niche channels out there, which would find a difficult time surviving on their own in a la carte world.

Adam Thierer

In the past six months, we've gotten a much larger piece of a much smaller pie.

David Jacobson

It makes the world a lot smaller.

Gary Cobb

If a player isn't getting the playing time, he transfers to a smaller school. That is best for the student-athlete, but then it costs me a point.

Kevin Cooney

My girlfriend has a smaller car, if it wasn't for her I probably wouldn't be able to make it to school.

Charles Roberts

The water table is so low. The smaller ones are drying up as the plants come to life and start to draw down the water. That's not good.

Bob Prescott

We have changed our plans and are taking out smaller protests away from the main venue because of the curfew.

Yogesh Bhattarai

Children eat 10, 20, 30 times greater in amount than adults, and they have smaller bodies. So in a milligram-per-pound body weight, they are exposed to much, much more of the pesticide placed on these products compared to an adult.

Michael Shannon

The smaller shopping centers, the leases were too long and way too expensive and pretty much ironclad. The mall offered a short-term six-month lease, and were very willing to work with new businesses to help us get up and get going. That was really a determining factor for locating here. Plus, there's more exposure and longer hours.

Jim Shaw

To create smaller parcels would go against the General Plan. We have had proposals to split 80-acre parcels into smaller lots but we don't allow it.

John Bencomo

Instead of the smaller billboards and ads we'd been doing, we decided to go big and bold. People can ignore the smaller ads.

Rob Grady

It especially suits modern Chinese families, as families are becoming smaller nowadays.

Rudolf Zarth Geschaftsleitung

We've got to adjust our usage, whether it's buying smaller vehicles or using fuel more efficiently.

John Efford

There is a huge amount of consolidation in the industry, and that consolidation is smaller companies all becoming larger through mergers or acquisitions or any kind of arrangement. So what's really going on is there's a huge pressure to lower their costs.

David Manning

The packaged food manufacturers' ability to raise and maintain prices to offset rising commodity costs will be a key test of the shifting of power to the retailer. Moreover, escalating costs have negatively impacted the small and midsize food companies more than their larger counterparts due to the smaller companies' higher proportion of fixed-costs and limited economies of scale.

Ronald Neysmith

Our experts came up with numbers that were substantially smaller than that.

David Kolata

It's not so easy to get people in smaller towns to spend money, but they still come to the store, all dressed up with their families. It's an outing for them.

Kishore Biyani

Lenders are always looking at the borrower in terms of ability to pay off the loan. If the borrower is going to have a much smaller loan, it's more feasible for the lender. It's less risky and a better transaction.

Patrick Ford

One of the key features for Oracle in supporting large databases is the partitioning feature, where you can break down large tables into smaller, virtual tables and make them easier to manage. Data partitioning has really helped database administrators to manage very large databases more efficiently.

Noel Yuhanna

If the smaller cities don't have reserves if they have problems with city budgets they could very easily have to curtail operations.

Richard Spruiell

Some smaller providers get nervous when you start talking about a rating system.

Chris Duggan

We are trying to set up 30 helicopters to run 24 hours for the next couple of months for $100 million, and right now we can only run one giant MI26 and eight smaller helicopters, ... We just don't have the money.

Simon Pluess

Background noise definitely made it harder to recover accurate text, but the differences became smaller after several rounds of feedback. Given enough tries, the computer algorithm will eventually come up with a pretty good estimate of the text that was typed.

Doug Tygar

The mechanized apparatus was much, much smaller about the size of a good-sized pickup truck today.

Fire Chief Dennis Baron

We had searched high and low for something with a slip without any luck. We were looking on Siesta Key, but they wanted $800,000 to $1.3 million for older, smaller places . . . We're boaters, and that was something that we definitely wanted. To us, that was worth the money.

Mary Swanson

Attackers are moving away from large, multipurpose attacks on network perimeters towards smaller, more targeted attacks directed at web and client-side applications.

Arthur Wong

If the City Council does not radically alter the trend in housing, then Davis in 2020 will become a much more exclusive community and ... a larger percentage of its workforce than today will be living elsewhere. ... And that, in particular, if we do not require a good portion of the new houses to be permanently affordable, then while we may have smaller homes, they will be very expensive homes.

David Thompson

I think the greatest assets we have are the people we have. There's very little as a group we can't solve, and that's the biggest thing. If there's something I don't know, I can look to my right or to my left and there's someone there who does. Sometimes (with smaller teams) you're scratching your head and there's no one there to ask.

Scott Maxim

With events like the Super Bowl, you see a polarization. You're going to get the big guys, but you're also going to see smaller guys blowing their whole ad budget just to get top-of-mind awareness.

Dave Stone

Yeah, you look at film, and here's a guy with size, speed, can run and match up with smaller receivers. It takes a unique guy to do that, and we're fortunate to have a guy who can.

Rod Perry

My aim is to be in the team. The squad is a wee bit smaller than it was and it's up to us to push and if we get the chance, take it.

Paul Lawson

War will never cease until babies begin to come into the world with larger cerebums and smaller adrenal glands.

H. L. Mencken

For Indianapolis, in a smaller market, to come up with such a deal is quite an achievement.

Dennis Howard

If you come with a vision that does not exclude, but includes the populace in a smaller community, you have the opportunity to make a difference for all the best reasons. We intend to shake things up.

Jay Lebow

It was huge. It was a lot of fun. My husband said, 'We could do this on a smaller scale.

Janet Schichnes

High-volume manufacturing has shifted to other regions so there is a greater focus on smaller accounts in North America than in the past. When we talk about expanding, we mean paying more attention to customers who have less than $100,000 a year in purchases from us.

Roy Vallee

The penalty for failing to pay is much smaller than the penalty for failing to file.

Jesse Weller

I think that the smaller the social group a person belongs to, the more likely they are to feel pressured to conform. For example, I think high school creates a worse environment than most colleges for generating poor body images in most girls.

Michael Phillips

The ice broke off and they started floating out and the ice was getting smaller and smaller as it melted. We had to get rescue personnel out there.

Mark Latti

We're pretty confident that we're heading into a place where there's a void. You have smaller consultancies on specific issues, but you don't have a comprehensive firm in education like this one.

John Danielson

It's an honor to join those guys, but I really haven't paid attention to the home runs because I just want to win. I always knew I could do it. I'm a smaller guy, but I have some power in my bat. I like it when people underestimate me. It's like a challenge.

Felipe Lopez

With newer bone-fixation methods, there are smaller incisions to minimize tissue damage and bleeding and accelerate the healing process.

Matthew Dairman

Even though they'll be value priced, they'll still carry hefty profit margins. They'll have better fuel economy and should do well. The market will be smaller, but it's still a big market.

Joe Phillippi

It is a wonderful competition that was set up to allow smaller countries like ours to compete on the International circuit.

Christina Williams

Dark alley, near midnight, silent door, loud knock, moment of silence, footsteps groping down stairs, rattle of key in lock, door opened -- and there lamp held high above his head, stands your dark Celtic velvet inspired mystic eloquent refined W.B.Y. himself, the William Blake of this smaller generation.

William Bliss Carman

The evidence is fairly convincing that smaller schools are more effective. At the district level there are some modest benefits of having a larger organization, but those are more than offset by the deficits of larger schools.

Paul Peterson

The group has evolved its product offering to provide a greater number of smaller, more affordable, private homes.

Malcolm Harris

Ethanol-blended fuel is available at thousands and thousands of America's gas stations, literally from coast to coast. E85, the alternative fuel that is 85 percent ethanol, is available at a smaller number of stations and that figure is growing very quickly.

Ron Lamberty

Sometimes, they are smaller works, but this one has many parts.

Debbie Edwards

The thing is lately we've moved to a smaller lineup, and that gives us much better spacing for everybody. It's opening things up for a lot of people.

Bart Manson

When it went to a smaller shop with no particular experience in this area, I was surprised, ... We were the only one of three finalists with this kind of experience.

Harry Davis

It's a good way to make a small fortune smaller.

Joe Ogilvie

There's going to be advantages of scale and if you can't compete on that, you're going to get left out of some areas, ... You could see some of these smaller guys get muscled out of some of the markets and actually lose market share.

Richard Watson

The nano-particles in the coating strongly attract the water droplets and force them to form much smaller contact angles with the surface.

Michael Rubner

We should all share I guess, ... Or we're going to lose some of the smaller teams down the line, and we've all stuck together.

Wellington Mara

I think people just will be more careful and work in smaller cells.

Steve Best

We've gone from being able to observe and analyze 100 square-kilometer (62 square-mile) plots in the past down to 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) and even 1 kilometer (0.62 mile). The clarity of the picture we're getting is analogous to a digital photograph becoming clearer as the pixels get smaller.

Dev Niyogi

Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were.

Cherie Carter Scott

Their memory's like a train: you can see it getting smaller as it pulls away And the things you can't remember Tell the things you can't forget that History puts a saint in every dream.

Tom Waits

A smaller core orchestra must be part of any mediated solution.

Scott Provancher

Nokia Networks will be smaller than this new entity. They will have to at least acknowledge the fact that organic growth won't be enough and that there is a need for acquisitions to strengthen product portfolio and market share.

Karri Rinta

The fire is getting bigger but that does not mean that it is a bad thing, sometimes we expect that to occur, but one of the ways that we fight the fire is by actually lighting smaller fires between the containment line and the larger fire.

Julena Campbell

In the enterprise, you already have all these libraries, but a lot of midsized companies want smaller automated tape products. The PX500 series plays into that market -- the lower end.

Dianne Mcadam

In smaller classes, he is the kid who everybody knows for being loud and hilarious.

Kyle Barnoff

Because of all the money that was spent, it got voters more interested. If it had just been candidates who couldn't self-fund, I think turnout would have been much smaller.

Jack Orr

Our horses look exactly like draft horses, but smaller. Our cows look just like cows, but in miniature.

Bret Sellers

We're not trying to hurt anyone out there, the smaller guys (independent gas station owners). We're asking for competition.

Sen. Nancy Argenziano

A lot of things need to be done concurrently. Some people have said wait. We don't have time to wait. This is the last marsh land in view of the capital. A marsh protects itself by its size. Dyke Marsh is growing smaller and more vulnerable. This can't be on the back burner.

Dave Eckert

The higher than expected catch rates combined with a run size that appears to be about 20 percent smaller than forecast have brought us to this point.

John North

To operate successfully in this business, you need to be big; you need to have scale. The European market has many smaller IT service providers that will need to grow in size or hook up with a larger partner to survive. We will be looking at acquisition opportunities in key markets.

Lothar Pauly

If Steve had suggested it earlier, we might have done it. But I looked at it as a slam dunk because smaller cities were paying more.

George Stewart

We're a smaller team so we can't go down the court every time and try to post them up. We have to try to beat them down the court and we did a nice job of that tonight.

Chris Kitchen

The Achievement Scholarship Award was originally founded during the 1960s Civil Rights Act and is specifically for African-American high school students. It's a much smaller program but operates in a very parallel way.

They are already passable but in some area you have to weave between fallen pine trees, ... The major highways are already totally clear. We're just talking about smaller roads.

Mike Cox

I've been very happy serving in a smaller school. It's a way of life for me. The interests of mine and the community have been the same. Rural schools have been my life. Montana is one of the most rural states. There's a need to educate every kid in the state.

John Mcneil

They put in a catheter and it went up to the aorta of my heart. The best way I can explain it, you have a nose in your heart that makes the pulse go. There's a little circuit that goes around. Well I had an even smaller circuit and it would make the pulse go really fast. So all they did was burn that little circuit.

When we have an opportunity to play the larger schools, they see the difference is just not there. Basketball is a home-and-road sport and, traditionally, the big schools have always played at home. Now when the smaller schools get them on a neutral court, the gap is not what the public perceives it to be.

Dana Altman

We are seeing smaller increases in both than we have previously. But it can be a gradual process. We are predicting — and we are going out on a big limb here — a slowing of the increases, possibly leading even to a decline in the future.

Kathy Deck

It causes less damage to the brain because it's a smaller probe, and you would be able to get to precisely where the tumor is rather than overshooting and undershooting it.

Silicon in its bulk format we all know is not an efficient emitter but when you get down to the quantum-confined sizes, you get very different effects. For the smaller sized particles you can get blue emission and for the larger particles you can get red emission. By having a film of these devices, you can electrically stimulate them.

Conrad Burke

When we had 3,000-person meetings, a lot of the people were not there to work on things. The meetings that we have are smaller. The mailing lists are more contained, and the work is actually proceeding better.

Fred Baker

Where the Mike's concept started was in smaller towns and has continued to develop in smaller towns, and we have done well with that.

Madison Jobe

In humans, this is like saying, 'The longer you are pregnant, the smaller your baby will be,' which means the womb is no longer a nurturing environment.

Tyrone Hayes

The governor's agenda has always been one of smaller government, less spending, more choices for parents and government restructuring. The fact that the House shares that agenda with the governor in the coming year is welcome.

Joel Sawyer

If anything is going to get around a quota, it is those big projects. What is not going to make it in, is the smaller product.

Jean Prewitt

I can only see the [energy] market expanding. As energy becomes more expensive there are going to be smaller players out there: with oil at $70 (£38) a barrel they can raise money for oil fields that are now economically viable.

Herbert Smith

We didn't adopt them for a day. We just adopted them. We had heard that so many smaller areas were not getting help because of the focus on New Orleans. We all know what it's like to be a little town.

Mary Alexander

She is a new Mrs Thatcher, just with a smaller handbag.

Michael Fuchs

Oxford's newly designed and proprietary Video On Demand system allows smaller hotel properties to offer first run Hollywood hits with a much lower cost system than previously available in the industry making this underserved market accessible with profitability to our clients, as well as Oxford Media.

Cliff Hall

While our customers generally look to manufacturers to provide them with accurate product data, we are in constant contact with our suppliers and have the resources required for an effective due diligence program. To create a program similar to ours would be especially challenging for our smaller size customers.

Paul Tallentire

We even had to ship a 27-by-15 customized rug to a customer in Florida. Before, she just had two smaller area rugs and just wasn't happy with that look.
