Selig Harrison

Tom Shannon
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Arthur C. Clarke
In many ways, the Christian conservative element of the Republican Party is sufficiently large that they have an effective veto over the eventual nominee. They may not get their first choice, but candidates they're opposed to are not going to get through the system.
Stephen Farnsworth
The talks are sufficiently constructive and serious that we're going to continue them. President Ahtisaari and I have accepted an invitation from Mr. Chernomyrdin to return next week. So we're continuing them.
Strobe Talbott
The situation in Iraq is sufficiently sober [that] I think this has given the Iranians a boost of confidence that they didn't have two years ago, ... They're not scared of us as they once were.
Geoffrey Kemp
At the end of the day, if the package is not sufficiently attractive to take on this, then it is a relatively simple decision. There are other places where we can do similar things.
Alan Rosling
This case must be sufficiently confusing for two juries not to be able to agree. One mistrial may be a fluke, but there is something about this trial that is not inspiring a jury with any confidence to convict.
Arthur Donato
The issues involved are sufficiently important that courses are now moving out of the philosophy departments and into mainstream computer science. And they affect everyone. Many of the students attracted to these courses are not technology majors, and many of the topics we discuss relate to ethical challenges that transcend the computer world.
Michael Quinn
I like the idea of bringing cartoon characters to life... and although the Americans have already attempted this, their culture is not sufficiently humane to make it work.
Gerard Depardieu
The issue on the table is whether Microsoft will make a proposal with sufficiently extensive behavioral provisions to satisfy the government's concerns.

Sir John Vanbrugh
Since declining over the past week, it is our opinion that the shares of each microprocessor supplier sufficiently discount potentially slower PC sell-through as well as the potential for aggressive pricing this winter. We continue to receive confirmation of strong notebook PC and server demand, even if desktops are less clear.
Rick Whittington
His symptoms will go into remission sufficiently enough to stand trial. There is a high likelihood that he will regain competency. His interest and his interpersonal functioning has been improving. (But) his delusional thoughts have continued.
Sally Johnson
(GM and Ford) have now sucked up all of the available customers through year-end with their employee pricing scheme. And with gasoline, even though it has come down from its highs, at current prices people are sufficiently concerned about heating their homes and putting gas in their car that they're going to buy more sensibly, and they're not going to buy big sport utility vehicles.
Maryann Keller
The impact of pollution on these clouds is sufficiently strong to completely shut off precipitation from them.
Daniel Rosenfeld
Unemployment is sufficiently high, and the economy has just come out of a relatively mild recession, so inflation pressures are relatively soft right now. It will take a while of solid growth before we have upward pressure on inflation, so the Fed can be a little relaxed about it.
Charles Lieberman
His poetry was sufficiently important that it helped to put the university on the map from a literary standpoint.
William Andrews
School boards are seen as the lowest rung of the political hierarchy, especially by other elected officials. But what that means is they are closer to the electorate than most officials. That to me is a position of influence, and it's not being used sufficiently to advocate policies and programs the schools need.
Pedro Noguera
We believe our evidence is sufficiently robust to argue that we need a diagnostic paradigm shift.
Dr. Matthew Thompson
Oh, the ignorance of us upon whom Providence did not sufficiently smile to permit us to be born in New England.
Horace Porter

Paul Valery
I'm trying to come up with an idea that meets the (president's) criteria, but which is sufficiently dramatic that it moves people off tax rolls and makes it very difficult for Congress to bring them back in.
Michael Graetz
ANOINT, v.t. To grease a king or other great functionary already sufficiently slippery. As sovereigns are anointed by the priesthood, So pigs to lead the populace are greased good. Judibras.
Ambrose Bierce
It is well established that the authorization to use force given by the Security Council in 1990 may be revived if the council decides that there has been a sufficiently serious breach of the conditions laid down by the council for the cease-fire.
Jeremy Greenstock
It's a sign that the market has matured sufficiently to support that level of product.
Peter Yesawich
We feel that the information provided to us was not sufficiently detailed to help us enforce or supervise the cleanup of the site.
Irwin Huberman
Whatever the reason -- whether Hitler thought he might get away with what he had got without fighting for it, or whether it was that after all the preparations were not sufficiently complete -- however, one thing is certain, he missed the bus.
Neville Chamberlain
If the investment climate has not improved sufficiently to maintain capital inflows by the time BI cuts its rates in the second half of 2006, then capital outflow will be the likely result.
Fauzi Ichsan
Was he deprived of oxygen for a sufficiently long period of time? We don't know that. That is something that time will tell.
Dr. Lawrence Roberts
The computer remains a sufficiently complex product that consumers still need help in picking one out.
Ursula Moran
They're not dropping out because they're not sufficiently Chinese, but mainly because their parents put an emphasis on work.
Pedro Noguera
We have seen ongoing momentum in domestic demand and persistently tight capacity constraints, ... We remain concerned that inflation pressures are not abating sufficiently to achieve our medium-term target.
Alan Bollard
It is obviously disappointing when a decision like this has to be made. We are not prepared to go into detail but the breaches were considered sufficiently serious to bring about this action.
Gary Hetherington
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
But I don't think people are sufficiently concerned about this situation ... If we don't have enough nurses, a lot of things don't work well in health care.
Carolyn Williams
Judy's view is that any purported waiver she got from anyone was not on the face of it sufficiently broad, clear and uncoerced.
Floyd Abrams
It certainly seems to me that the warnings are not sufficiently clear to the general public.
Laura Liddicoat
Our hospitals are taking a hard line on that. The law is sufficiently vague on that point to allow them to do that.
Pete Rodda
The goal of achieving a diverse student body is sufficiently compelling to justify consideration of race ... under some circumstances.
Lewis Powell
Whether it is sufficiently meeting systemic needs is largely left up to whether we trust the government.
James Seals
Since the prime minister has not given any specific instructions, I want to sufficiently confirm his intentions.
Toshihiro Nikai
I do not think that the effect of good environment, of fine buildings, of pleasant homes, upon the character, temperament, will, disposition, and energy of the people sufficiently dawns upon the average citizen.
Thomas Adams
There's no system foolproof enough to defeat a sufficiently great fool.
Edward Teller
Hopefully, we'll see all our favorite bounty hunters from Empire and others including Aura Sing searching the galaxy in the hunt for the scalps of any remaining Jedi, ... Maybe we'll see how Yoda ends up on Dagobah and what Alderaan does to annoy the Empire sufficiently to have it destroyed.
Mark Hamilton
It is probable that there is no one thing that it is of eminent importance for a child to learn. The true object of juvenile education, is to provide, against the age of five and twenty, a mind well regulated, active, and prepared to learn. Whatever will inspire habits of industry and observation, will sufficiently answer this purpose.
William Godwin
It is a relatively fragmented marketplace. They seem convinced that the two lines are sufficiently differentiated that they don't constitute antitrust problems.
Martin Sankey
Compare all this ribaldry, blasphemously called the Word of God, with the Almighty power that created the universe, and whose eternal wisdom directs and governs all its mighty movements, and we shall be at a loss to find a name sufficiently contempti.
Curtis Mcdougall
We know that we can steer it sufficiently to sample another region of the crater.
Daniel Andrews
With waits of up to 8 weeks for a routine screen for STI in some parts of the country and some people being turned away who may never get seen, STIs will continue to rise until capacity is increased sufficiently in specialist services with the experience to deal with cases efficiently and speedily.
Angela Robinson
While the data indicate inflationary pressures remain well contained, we continue to anticipate a Fed rate hike on Nov. 16. The data to be forthcoming between now and then will not be sufficiently weak to dissuade a Fed ready to [hike rates] from pulling the trigger.
Marilyn Schaja
You don't have to be a fantastic hero to do certain things – to compete. You can be just an ordinary chap, sufficiently motivated.
