The market will be focused on the Fed next week, on what the language of the statement might be.

Som Dasgupta

It was a very balanced statement and it struck, we thought, the right note between freedom of speech and responsible freedom of speech and it also called for greater understanding of Islam and Muslims and greater dialogue between Canadians and Canadian Muslims, so the initiative draws on that.

Riad Saloojee

It's a statement game, preseason or not. We are trying to make a statement for the rest of the world, so they can see that we are going to be the best defense.

Jevon Kearse

Until we've we get a definitive statement we'll continue to do things the way we've done it.

John Faulkner

There's a tremendous statement there about the universality of man. It's who the pope is.

Gilbert Levine

[Roberts' dissent is a] pretty big deal, ... The fact that he was willing to challenge the Endangered Species Act as a brand-new judge, when lots of his Republican colleagues went the other way, indicates that he really wanted to make a statement.

Cass R. Sunstein

Terrorists still prefer car bombs, you know. A car bomb still has a lot impact than a cyber-attack. But there is always the possibility that somebody could make some kind of dramatic statement by bringing down some aspect of the infrastructure.

Richard Power

This is a monumental step for Santa Rosa Junior College, because it is a direct statement that it is changing from a one-campus to a two-campus college.

Doug Garrison

It is the most distinctive and the most capable 4x4 in the Toyota lineup, and that's quite a statement.

Jim Farley

We're definitely trying to make a statement.

Beezer Molten

Each game is going to be a statement for us that we're ready, and whoever plays us is going to have their hands full. As long as we take care of business and do the things that we did in the Washington game, like fighting back and keeping our composure, down the stretch we should be OK.

Chris Rodgers

I don't think the Fed will surprise the market but it will see if there are any hints available from the statement.

Masamichi Koike

He's here to support us and here to support the journal, which I think is a big statement as well.

Dr. Noni Macdonald

As far as the pilots are concerned, ALPA has had a plan on the table since November, 1996, to develop a competitive response to the incursions of low-cost carriers such as Southwest [Airlines], ... Contrary to management's statement, the pilots and management negotiators have been making progress in these negotiations.

Jim Gardner

I completely disagree with his statement. That is not the case. My negotiating committee tried to get a deal, they've been more than willing to try to come to a compromise. And I don't feel we're getting that from the other side.

Chad Caldwell

They took it to us pretty good in game one. I told the guys after that game that they kind of made a statement for the district, and we'd have to see how we'd progress throughout the year.

Dale Scott

There's no getting around having to say the honest statement, that from everything we know or from everything the doctors know, this person will die. That (still) allows for the eternal optimism of hope and a miracle.

Joe Ferry

It's a a pretty clear statement that Blu-ray has got some major momentum going on. From a consumer's point of view, if you buy a Blu-ray player, you're going to have a much easier time finding content than ever before.

Andy Parsons

Market nerves are ragged. Its like Chinese water torture. We thought we'd have resolution from Blix, then we thought (U.S. Secretary of State Colin) Powell was going to give the definitive statement and now its dragging on until next Friday.

Anais Faraj

I spend my spare time watching film. That's a fair statement.

Demeco Ryans

It's a bold statement. The color (orange) is bold. You've got to be more than the words on the sign.

Andrea Park

He made the statement when the pictures were taken here that his son said he was 110, but he kind of corrected and said, by my recollection, i'm a couple of years older than a 110 so that would have made him 112 back in 2001.

Gloria Williams

It was kind of a statement game. But, it's early. I mean, we can't get too overconfident because things can change in baseball in a hurry. You can turn around and lose three or four in a row just like we're winning three or four in a row.

Bart Mcatee

The statement that the U.S. is addicted to oil has been resonating all over the world. But most of the rest is pretty insignificant. The bigger picture issue here is that there's no long-term push. In fact, he spent years offering policies that fed the oil industry, then now makes a statement that this is a problem and offers limited solutions.

John Coequyt

The president's budget is not the agenda-setting development or event that it used to be. They use it to make a political statement. It should in no way be taken as what they would actually do or what they actually want or what they're ultimately going to accept.

Stan Collender

On the margin, the statement reads as if the Fed has quite a bit of confidence in the economy. There's a fairly optimistic undertone about the economic momentum.

Jeff Young

[An attorney for Ladner said yesterday that he could not comment on the statement.] I haven't seen it. Someone on the board has obviously leaked it to the press but withheld it from Dr. Ladner, so he cannot respond, ... It is very disappointing that members of the board would harm the university by continuing a constant series of leaks that distort the truth.

David Ogden

All in all, developments on Rita and the G7 statement have not made me think the dollar rally will lose momentum anytime soon.

David Mozina

Floyd wants to make a statement on April 8. I've been with Floyd since the beginning of his career and I've never seen him work this hard for a fight.

Leonard Ellerbe

This statement can be described only as utter rubbish.

Sizwe Kupelo

It was a good match for us. We went out there pretty fired up and wanted to make a statement in the first round. I think they did with the shutout.

Derek Strobel

The only statement we've made this year is it's anybody's state championship to win.

Kenny Walker

And what we've been able to ascertain is that the bishop thought that he had hit a dog or a cat. That was his statement. However, we have additional information that shows that he didn't immediately report it to the police.

Rick Romley

He uses the magic word - 'cure.' That's a serious statement for people who are vulnerable and desperate for some sort of help.

Theresa Santiago

Mr. Harper begins his campaign with an unequivocal statement that, if elected prime minister, he would act swiftly to roll back charter rights.

Scott Reid

In the acquire-or-be-acquired corporate mayhem of the 1980s, the mantle of management has passed to investment bankers and number-crunchers whose vision extends no further than the next quarterly earnings statement.

Charles Fontaine

Neither I nor the governor can make a statement.

Antonio Fazio

Every dogma, every philosophic or theological creed, was at its inception a statement in terms of the intellect of a certain inner experience.

Felix Adler

We went from Dec. 10 to the 27th of February and only practiced our starters together seven times. To be here, it's been a real statement of perseverance.

Kirk Martin

It's always the case when you are up by 30 or so points, to keep up the intensity. Every team has that issue and it's difficult for them to keep the focus up. But we have to learn to punish teams and make a statement. I don't think this will be the last time we do this.

Jaren Jackson

Verification is definitely a problem. But to reach a new agreement they need progress, and today's statement is progress.

Jin Canrong

That was big. I think that was the play that got everybody going a little bit. Then, when I was able to tie it with a free throw, it made a little statement to them.

Marques Alston

More or less we've saved our season. We've also made a statement that we're not dead yet.

Jamie Rodriguez

I think the people, the working-man people, made a statement here, that you don't have to be a college graduate to be a good Canadian.

Don Cherry

You're the only financial institution that can't produce a balance sheet or a cash flow statement.

Richard Grubman

By Richardson, Conley said in his statement. ''The jury interpreted the evidence differently.

Robert Richardson

If they come away from your opening statement confused, you're in big trouble for the rest of the trial.

Dan Hedges

We are obliged to make a statement due to press speculation.

Alex Pagett

[The licensing board decisions are] not happy news, ... but it's also not an immediate and final statement that says, 'This stuff is going to start shipping the day after tomorrow.'

Bob Bennett

A statement like that coming from him opens eyes across the board. This is a milestone.

Ron Cogan

I don't think anybody really picked us to win 10 games and be SEC West co-champions. This is a huge game. It's a chance to make a statement that we are a pretty good team.

Ben Obomanu

This is a very good team. To only give them seven shots is a pretty big statement. That's a credit to our defense.

Kevin Boyd

He's a hard-nosed booger. Before he's finished, he'll be one of the best we've had here, and that's a bold statement.

Dale Mabrey

That really helped because the kids executed. We had a few minutes where we kind of went nutty, then we regained our composure. Being able to settle down and pull out the win, that made a huge statement for them, I think.

Karen Trent

The leader's blueprint speech is a statement of what Labor will seek to achieve in government. That was obviously thought through in the leader's office.

Martin Ferguson

I have heard nothing whatsoever about this alleged media speculation. This is a matter for the judiciary to decide on, not for politicians and Jalal should know better than that. Why should he make a statement on the accused to the public? The court, the judge need to decide on this.

Abdel Haq Alani

Actions do speak louder than words and they need to perform on the pitch. I was never a big believer in making outrageous statements - just little subtle hints here and there. Saying it is going to be 5-0 (referring to Glen McGrath's statement) puts enormous pressure on the guys when things start to go a little bit wrong and feel they have to live up to those expectations.

Steve Waugh

We definitely made a statement.

Michelle Harrison

He told me to steal the tip. I looked at his feet (the Jackets' Thompson) and knew he was going to tap it back(wards). Their guy didn't go for it and and I was able to get it. That's how you make a statement and we went on a 9-1 run.

Danny Sanders

That was a fun game for us. We knew we were going to need our top game to beat Ottawa with all the scoring they have. We showed we can play with them. This game was a pretty good statement for us.

Ales Kotalik

The markets would like to see some statement that the G7 are quite happy with the dollar-yen rate and if it stays at 120 yen they will be delirious.

Adrian Schmidt

Until I'm standing up there with my statement in my hand, I'm not going to believe it.

John Shanagher

One comes to believe whatever one repeats to oneself sufficiently often, whether the statement be true of false. It comes to be dominating thought in one's mind.

Robert Collier

At least one chamber of Congress has finally made a statement that it is not acceptable to hurt or kill transgender people because of who we are. This is a pivotal vote for transgender people who have been working diligently for years to educate Congress about transgender people and our lives.

Mara Keisling

No outsider has ever seen the profit and loss statement of a franchise or of the league itself.

Stan Chesley

I think it's a fair statement to say the advertising base has been wrecked. We're in the process of strategizing how we'll deal with that now.

Rick Keilty

The dollar is largely consolidating after being pummeled the last day and a half and as the market continues to digest the FOMC statement.

Michael Jansen

It makes the statement that women are equal to men.

Martha Burk

By bouncing a word, visually, you're putting in an inflection, you know, the way a sentence should be if somebody heard it spoken. And I think a lot of humor depends on inflection, how a person says something. Certain things you could say as a question, and as a statement.

Johnny Hart

There's nothing in this statement that we didn't already know, ... Telecom operators have not been spending and six months ago we thought Marconi would go bust. Its priority is to cut debt.

Mark Tinker

When the time is right, we will make a statement, so I ask that you please give the family their space and privacy at this point.

George Peterson

[After first ducking the issue on Wednesday, Schwarzenegger surprised lawmakers with his statement.] If this is true, ... it would be very disrespectful to the many millions of Californians who support this bill to make a decision without even allowing the proponents to make a case for his signature. This is not just another bill.

Mark Leno

First game back, making a statement like that is big.

Al Wilson

It's an opportunity to make a statement. If we win, we have 2½ days off before our next game. We have to look at this as a good opportunity.

Craig Smith

It's just a quiet statement and I think it should be left that way.

Beverly Martin

I don't think anyone really objected to the statement, but I don't think they thought it really belonged in a science textbook.

Ginger Davis

It's huge. That's making a statement. We're out here to win and to take league. That's just the beginning.

Catherine Hallada

The exterior changes are positive, they're not overwhelming. I don't think they have many opportunities there to make any dramatic statement.

Paul Pugliese

Dell had some very good numbers in what has been a weak quarter for tech, but the results are more indicative of their success in gaining market share. There is nothing in their statement that implies IT (information technology) spending has picked up.

Walter Winnitzki

After today's council meeting the European Central Bank sent a less hawkish statement compared to market expectations.

Joerg Kraemer

We are characterizing this as a threat. The two individuals approached our officers and ... made a statement alluding to the fact that they did have a suspicious package in their vehicle.

Jessica Gissubel

This sounds an extraordinary statement to make, but in fact all truth is very ordinary.

Brian Perkins

This would be the same as taking away the right to a hearing, or the right to respond to a statement of objections.

Horacio Gutierrez

We're satisfied with (Wells' statement).

Rich Levin

She made a statement to the co-defendants that if this didn't get taken care of, she knew somebody else that could take care of her husband and would also take care of them.

Mike Clark

The Fed statement hasn't made me change my focus on data. I still think that those that will be important are those that give us a sense of capacity constraints and inflation.

Sophia Drossos

As always, the outlook statement, however, is conservative.

Thijs Berkelder

Our kids talk about winning the league. If you want to be a serious contender, you have to go in and make a statement. Hopefully, the results will follow.

Jim Scheible

It makes a statement to our clients that this is a place where they can come and get better.

Chuck Hall

I seriously doubt the authenticity of the claim. Investigators will look into the statement but serious doubts are there over its authenticity.

Niaz Siddiqui

Every elected [Republican] official in this county supports Charlie Crist. We certainly want to make a very clear statement that this is Charlie Crist country.

Bill Bunting

The French court's decision and President Chirac's statement to call the ship back shows how a government when pressured by the public opinion can take corrective action.

Ramapati Kumar

The marchers were trying to make a statement, but some people wouldn't let their minds get bogged down in all that. They weren't paying attention. They could ignore it.

Bernice Sims

I had to get myself in the world's eye to make my statement.

Tommie Smith

Keith introduces most songs on guitar, ... But right before we started I asked Keith if he'd mind if I did a little cadenza up front on sax to lead into his intro. He said, 'Go ahead, man, do your thing.' I started playing, and Charlie immediately joined me. I had this short statement in mind, but then I thought, 'Charlie's playing with me; I've got to keep going.'

Tim Ries

If we get a lot of comments from the meetings and surveys I think the staff and our board is going to listen. (The feedback) is really going to help us move forward to prepare a vision statement and come up with policies.

Rob Hosack

There was a significant increase in the number of emergent CT scans performed after the release of the NCI statement in 2002, ... As physicians we should make judicious use of CT scans a priority.

Leslie Allen

Nice try. [T]his episode fits the usual MO of the Bush administration perfectly: a flat statement of fact about intelligence matters that's made with great fanfare even though they know there's significant dissent within the intelligence community.

Kevin Drum

This is a very strong statement of the Israeli economy and the aviation market.

Ido Hartuv

For me to say that that is a fair statement would be stepping out ahead of what this committee?s work is.

Geno Marconi

[Boykin was planning to talk about hostility toward homosexuals in the black community, Ray Daniels, communications director for the group, said Friday.] It's a groundbreaking statement and very forward thinking, ... It's the sort of thinking that will help heal our community.

Ray Daniels

To me, a statement and confession are not necessarily synonymous.

Leslie Ballin

[INDIANAPOLIS -- It's the kind of statement a politically safe Republican facing a perennial gadfly opponent in 2006 can make.] We're winning the war in Iraq, ... We've never lost a tactical engagement with the enemy. We've never even lost a platoon.

Mike Pence

He said it's only moving at the top, which it was designed to do. But I'm not taking his word for it, I'll be checking with county engineers to see if that's an accurate statement.

Michael Roth

We watched a couple of (Highlands Ranch's) games and confidence was what they built on. In practice all week, coach (Rudy Carey) told us we had to come out and make a statement.

Donell Wells

The police have summoned Anwar for a statement following a police report believed to be related to a election rally speech last year.

Sankara Nair

The statement 'we don't want to do business with you people' _ you people isn't anyone but John McDonald.

Allen Lichtenstein

The joint statement had less to do with Taiwan and more to do with the rise of China, and how Japan and the United States feel a threat from China.

David Huang

Absurdity, n.: A statement or belief manifestly inconsistent with one's own opinion.

Ambrose Bierce

I'm very pleased with our men's performances. It makes a big statement for the program with where we've been and the direction that we're heading in. Today has been a great accomplishment for our athletes and the school.

Darryl Anderson

I recall Mr. Lay saying that liquidity was fine, and then he strengthened his statement to say that liquidity was strong.

Paula Rieker

To coincide with Valentine's Day we were making a statement demanding roses and the dignity they stand for and bread in the form of affordable food for everyone.

Jenni Williams

This statement of intent is not a commitment to do any of those things specifically, it's an indication that we are investigating those matters and if anything specific comes out of it, in due course it will be something that is bought before the council.

Bob Lineham

If they have not issued a financial statement, that's a company to stay away from. You can't do any evaluation without looking at assets and revenues.

Harry Eisenberg

We need to get our head back in the game, ... It's going to be a tough one. We've got to go up to Clemson and really make a statement.

A.j. Nicholson

If you are someone who is traveling overseas for at least 14 days that includes April 15 and you are away on business, you get an automatic extension to June 15 to file your return, ... You just have to attach a statement to your return explaining that you were out of the country.

Arthur Andersen

I remember Charlie making a statement about it last year. But this [series] has been going on for 78 years. And chancellors sign off on everything at our universities.

Bill Hayes

Today's guidance ... is the clearest and most comprehensive statement and guidance regarding the consideration of race and ethnicity in law enforcement activities from any administration, ever, ... We've done our very best to get it right. We think we have.

Ralph Boyd

I think it would be fair statement, that his being late was becoming chronic. It was not the first time something like this happened, but it was the first time I took action.

Mike Russell

Yes, I would say that is a fair statement.

Scott Fawell

We've got three games left, hopefully, and we set the tone. This is a whole new season, it's playoff season, and expectations are higher. If we want to make a statement, we need to do it now.

Bryan Lynton

The statement will not tell the final story. I believe the Fed finale really is data dependent.

Jack Malvey

We're going to put out a statement to the membership and let them know what's going on.

Peter Gibbons

It's a huge weekend. It's important to make a statement. We have a whole half to go, but we definitely want to make an impression.

Candice Wiggins

Here it comes, in time for the elections, the voting statement of the Milan prosecutors' office.

Paolo Bonaiuti

[The chorus contains a statement of the principles behind the bomb, why it's practical and what it can accomplish.] It doesn't exactly say how to build a nuclear weapon, ... but it is a précis of the science involved.

Peter Sellars

The day I got hired, I made the statement then that without a World Series title coming to Chicago on the South side, it'll be considered a failed effort. We're at stage one, but unless we finish it out, personally, it will only mean a job unfinished and an opportunity lost.

Kenny Williams

The statement shows that the talks have got a clearer focus and are drawing closer to the actual actions.

Liu Jiangyong

Foreign exchange in the first quarter had a slightly negative impact on our income statement.

Ron Wirahadiraksa

It's pretty much universally expected they'll hike 25 basis points but I think what will be more important is the actual wording of the statement where people will look for further indication of further hikes.

David Powell

The Sept. 11 commission's statement that it does not believe a secret military intelligence unit discovered a group of future hijackers more than a year before the terrorist attacks is.

Curt Weldon

The truth is it can be a tremendous opportunity. You prove to the organization you can take criticism and you're able to turn it around. That's a very positive career statement.

Harry E. Chambers

The market has largely factored in another US rate hike this month. The focus is to find out in the accompanying statement whether the Fed will raise interest rates further.

Yasuhisa Ishida

The government has only made a statement saying there is no genocide in Papua, but what is their legitimate proof?

Welly Mandowen

May I finish my answer, please? ... Again, any person that has personal contact with a murder victim is a potential suspect until they are eliminated, until the investigation is completed. He may have taken something out of context. I have no recollection of making that statement.

Philip Vannatter

By selling, you're making an ethical statement. But don't cut off your nose to spite your face.

Mari Adam

While the President once again employed the dictionary definition of Genocide, we are deeply disappointed that he did not properly characterize the attempted annihilation of our people as genocide. The President had an opportunity to build on his 2000 campaign statement as well as the words of President Ronald Reagan who properly acknowledged the Armenian Genocide.

Assembly Board

It's coming home, to finish what I started. I've always watched the Raiders from afar. The old saying among the ex-players is that once a Raider, always a Raider. That's a true statement.

Art Shell

It's a basic statement that you can make that turkeys gobble year round. Depending on their mood and their notion, they will get with it periodically.

Randy Showalter

Making an outrageous statement, unless she can prove it, seems to me that she's trying to change the headlines.

Ron Gidwitz

Mike said 'I want to see you in your office' and he said 'I'm going to resign as head coach of the Bills. Of course, I was completely surprised at his statement. He seemed very firm about (it). He said he wants to move on.

Ralph Wilson

The Fed cut rates back in November as a growth insurance policy, and here we are, four months later, and employment is still declining. This is an important statement to makers of monetary policy -- you need to come in here and do something to get an extra insurance policy.

Steve Ricchiuto

It certainly left the door open for additional hikes. The statement was a little more hawkish than people anticipated.

Kevin Cronin

He keeps us in games. He's really stepped up recently and made a statement.

Mark Lerose

They're a top-notch program in the state. They're nationally recognized, and it's a great opportunity for us. It's a big game for us, a game where you can make a statement for yourself.

Calvin Baisley

This was a big statement game for us. People were saying we were overrated. They were writing us off. The only losses we have are to Duke and Tennessee.

Shay Doron

The market got ambitious in what they were expecting from the Fed. The fact that the statement mentioned energy costs having some impact on consumer spending led some to be a bit cautious on the future growth outlook.

Jeremy Stretch

I think even with it being their first match, they have a lot of confidence. I told them that it should be their year ... and also for them to show the crowd – and make a statement – that it is our year.

Jenny Williams

It is the people who own businesses here and live here that helped develop our vision statement.

Jeff Gray

The company has provided no outlook statement, so it is very difficult to form a view until we see that independent report.

Rickey Ward

Are you saying you didn't make that statement?

Philip Vannatter

I don't think we had a statement. We felt ready and we're prepared for whatever they need us for.

Neal Cotts

The fact that a player is very short of time is, to my mind, as little to be considered an excuse as, for instance, the statement of the law-breaker that he was drunk at the time he committed the crime.

Alexander Alekhine

I looked at it as a statement. They were ranked pretty high and they beat Maryland. I look at it like an NCAA tournament win.

Cedric Simmons

I'm excited at the way our team is developing in practice. I think for us, moving into the Colonial and beating a team that's in the top three is a real statement that our basketball team is getting better and that we're progressing.

Ron Everhart

[Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, was less impressed, saying in a statement that the guidelines failed to deliver] a single guarantee for consumers. ... nothing that really is meaningful.

Sidney Wolfe

Last year we felt we got cheated out a little bit, ... We were still happy where we were at. Now that we are here, we feel we can make a statement.

Darnell Bing

I began to concentrate on the issues of race and imperialism. As a political statement, the demonstrations were an absolute failure, nobody understood why I was holding them. I was told my activities were creating deep confusion about where I was coming from and why I was angry.

Henry Flynt

The market could react if the statement indicates in any way that the tightening cycle is winding down. But the possibility that the Fed will say anything that will shake up the market is very low.

Shigeru Komatsu

A sweeping statement is the only statement worth listening to. The critic without faith gives balanced opinions, usually about second-rate writers.

Patrick Kavanagh

Good question. The revolution isn't a political statement. The band is now going on 10 years. In 1996 ... it was our own little music revolution. It was a big statement for us that we were excited to be doing what we were doing, and starting.

Chris Culos

Explicit statement of who truly holds political power.

Georg Greve

They took it very seriously, the guys knew it was a chance to make a statement about getting into the lineup.

Bill Potoczny

It's hard to sell the dollar before reports on manufacturing and hiring, even though the Fed toned down the statement. Fed policy is now more data dependent. And data coming in a few days look strong, supporting the dollar.

Teruhisa Tsuji

Some parts and some elements of the Pentagon Report are correct. For instance it is correct to state that the PRC (the People's Republic of China) appears focused on preventing Taiwan's independence and also to underline this statement by quoting the 'Anti-Secession Law of March 2005.

Helmut Schmidt

The outlook statement talks of continued weakness in recruitment markets which management argue -- more persuasively than other peers -- is cyclical rather than structural given a softer public sector in late 2005.

Andrew Walsh

The (Fed's) statement is going to be critical. But the Fed needs to send the message that the economic recovery is on track and sustainable, that Katrina is not going to derail it.

John Waterman

The market is largely of the view that the Fed will raise interest rates next month after the statement from the January meeting showing flexibility in raising rates while tracking economic indicators.

Yasuhisa Ishida

That loss at Marquette was just a bad loss for us. We came back on the road at Syracuse. This was a statement game for us. We just went out there and played basketball and made a statement. The statement was that we're here and we're here to stay. We're not pushovers. We're not little boys. We're men out there.

Jeff Adrien

No. 1 is the clothes have to be comfortable. No. 2 is what we represent and how we convey that. The outfits make a statement about us and the Games.

Apolo Anton Ohno

Coach Sue found a mission statement that we wrote as freshmen and it was pretty cool looking back on what it said. It was about committing to Florida State and making a difference during our four years here. It is cool to look back and see that we were the ones that really wanted to take Florida State to the next level and to see that what we wrote, we actually followed through with.

Holly Johnson

We have said throughout the campaign that New Zealanders would pay for National's tax cuts through higher mortgage and interest rates and today's statement from the bank bears that out.

Michael Cullen

We had to kick off our two best players because of rules infractions, ... The kids probably didn't think we'd do that. Those two were doing things that used to be acceptable in the program, but not now. We needed to make a statement. And the (rest of the T'Wolves) responded real well.

Robby Robinson

It's a real statement that despite Enron, (the terrorist attacks of) 9-11 and the recession in the U.S., Japan is having a worse time. But beyond the symbolism, it doesn't mean much.

Mark Headley

The G-7 statement that pressed on Asian countries to allow their currencies to strengthen is still powerfully propelling the yen. The yen looks strong.

Nobuo Ibaraki

I think that even though it is early, you will see us executing much better this year than last. Last year we were in a new offense and this year we understand what the coaches want and we are ready to make a statement, and make it early.

John Weldon

I think the vast majority of people reading that statement believe it is political. I don't care what the politics are, it is not appropriate. It begins politicizing the forms that governments uses.

Sen. Susan Bartlett

To the extent that [Lay] is making a statement of opinion, the government has to show not only that that statement was false but that he knew it to be false.

John Coffee

He made a statement to this man that he'd just killed three people in Seven Mile Ford.

David Bradley

I think we've been making statements along the way. Seven and 0 can't not make a statement. That kind of speaks for itself, and it's the kids.

Tod Martin

It's that old statement, let them kill each other because it's gang on gang. And that is in fact not the case.

Ray Lepone

In the independent directors' target company statement - which included an independent adviser's report - they valued Capital Properties in a range of $1.48 to $1.72 a share, with a mid-point valuation of $1.60.

Mark Lister

This was a statement to the country that the Kenya Wildlife Service organization believes Meru is safe.

Mark Jenkins

There is nothing in the statement to suggest they're done.

Ian Shepherdson

This isn't the big one. They have made a statement that they won't sell the [Royal Bank] stake, so you have to ask what they are going to do with it.

David Liston

Preppy is being approached differently. In the mid-'90s it was urban, hip hop and baggy, now it's fitted, more sexy in a 1970s way, and a fashion statement for a designer customer.

Robert W. Burke

It's a very positive statement that the team is playing a majority of games in Louisiana. I think that's the right decision. The long term really has not been discussed. The league obviously is going to have to be involved in that.

Arnold Fielkow
