[Talks have reached a critical stage and negotiators need to reach a deal on agriculture in the next two weeks if efforts to restart the Doha round by the end of the year are to succeed.] Some speak of a deadlock in the talks, ... I prefer to talk of a padlock, and the key is in the hands of the EU.

Celso Amorim

All I would say is the talks are constructive and progress has been made. But I'm not going to speculate on how close an agreement is. In my experience in talks like these, close and near are awfully subjective terms.

The meeting was about starting peace talks and stopping the violence.

Talks are in a tough period.

Luo Bingsheng

James is running scared. James has the biggest mouth in boxing but he has no heart. He talks a lot of trash. He keeps bringing my name up. They say they need a tuneup. I haven't fought since November. Who needs a tuneup?

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.

Helen Keaney

I think in addition to the fact that there's no progress to report, I think the MTA is very concerned that we are down to the wire. Obviously the MTA does not have any deadline on these talks. We have said we will continue to negotiate for as long as it's fruitful.

Through the talks, we hope to make our position clear to the DPRK and get further knowledge about their stance.

We strongly urged (North Korea) that it is important to return to the six-party talks in a swift manner.

They have made her whole life. She talks about them all the time. They send her care packages, which are probably the first things she had ever received by mail. The whole situation is surreal because I never knew these people existed.

Christine Martin

It talks very frankly about evaluating your motives for doing this, whether or not you're just postponing reality.

Margot Lester

I love Las Vegas. The people here are a lot nicer than they are in San Fernando Valley. Nobody talks to you there, not even my neighbor.

Felix Silla

The North Korean foreign minister told me what he had in mind, what had caused North Korea not to be able to participate in the six-party talks scheduled for Monday.

A professor is one who talks in someone else's sleep.

Anette Einarsen

If I had to give a grade to Howard Stringer, I'd give him a C-plus. He talks a lot about restructuring in cost reduction. He doesn't really talk about stirring growth.

John Yang

When we talk to God, we're praying. When God talks to us, we're schizophrenic.

Jane Wagner

I would support a recall of the mayor. I'm really troubled when a man talks about sunshine and hatches deals in back rooms. I'm very concerned that the process is being manipulated by some very wealthy people.

Paul Spiegelman

It can be a problem if you don't control it. Mark always talks about having controlled aggression. You have to be able to channel the energy. When that happens, sometimes it makes [the gymnasts] do things that you normally don't see them do.

Both sides agreed to consult their respective leaderships with the view of holding another round of talks in January with the aim of agreeing on a framework for (formal) negotiations.

Stanislas De Laboulaye

The question is, is he a skilled-enough politician to get his agenda through the Legislature? And when he talks about paying for his programs by growing the economy, it makes me leery; if there's a downturn, he's going to face some very difficult choices.

Joseph Marbach

We'll continue talks with [them]. This doesn't necessarily shut the door on their future with the Rays.

Andrew Friedman

If someone talks to a bail bondsman, they are not viewed as a snitch, but if they talk to a cop, they are viewed as a snitch.

Wayne Pollet

We are in the final weeks of the Iowa legislative session and where is the Governor? He's been in Florida, Washington D.C. and New York, just in the past four days. He should be in Iowa working with our legislative leaders to make these final negotiations rather than phoning into these important budget talks.

Cullen Sheehan

This is a good start for future similar talks.

Hua Jiang

There's something pretty miraculous when she talks about how that dog went and laid down on the grave. It just is very, very special and you know, she's got a good puppy dog.

There's not enough inventory, regionally speaking. That's why I do a back flip every time somebody talks spec - because we desperately need it.

Maureen Halahan

I had talks with my American colleague, (Treasury Secretary) John Snow, which created the basis on which the forgiveness of Iraqi debt can be settled mutually in the Paris Club.

Tim Amundsen

We are in talks and I'm very confident that we will reach an agreement with KDG. It will help us to reach more viewers and exploit the rights more efficiently.

Ken Bacon

We have also been in talks with game publishers and developers who are looking to help. It's been incredible, and it's just the start.

Nancy Lee

The mainland will not agree to maintaining the status quo then. Talks will be on reunification ... We can't let Taiwan provoke us every day.

Xu Shiquan

I have had a few chances to play with Michelle, ... I think she is a sweet girl. She is a wonderful player, very strong and got great skills. But to me she is still a 16-year-old. When she talks to me she is like a little sister. We'll have fun playing together.

Grace Park

Both agree to continue with these talks.

Manuel Marulanda

The U.S. side has politicized the trade issue and largely neglected international practices, which makes it very difficult for people to expect any substantial results from the talks.

Mei Xinyu

We've sat down and had some nice talks and set some definite goals with this group. We should be the team to beat in the conference.

Paul Pautsch

He brings the attitude that we need — a leader. The way he plays, the way he talks, you can tell he has a lot of passion for this game.

Fred Bennett

The talks have moved forward a few inches but the question is who will benefit? Issues of vital importance to developing countries are still being ignored.

Celine Charveriat

Only then, after the violence will drop down dramatically, then finally we can resume the peace talks about the constructive solutions, what to be done between the two people.

Avraham Burg

I'm not convinced that talks would lead anywhere. (But) in the short to medium term, they would take the pressure out of the system that's driving oil prices.

Cliff Kupchan

It is very interesting. There were a couple of times this year when Coach Caldwell was having some serious talks and Naomi or Mariah came over and did something funny. It's hard to get serious. (The kids) bring so much joy to the team.

Chris Ratcliff

You don't love science if someone just talks to you for 45 minutes a day.

George Wolfe

He talks to a variety of groups from across the political spectrum and reaches out to people from all walks of life.

Scott Mcclellan

We've got Jacksonville and Lon Morris on the road. Obviously, the primary goal is make the tournament, and, if possible, improve the place that we go in instead of going in at six. I think all that talk's very premature at this point. We got to get there.

Tracey Stellato

We should fight terror, by all means, but not at the cost of cutting off any chance of talks with the pragmatists.

Ami Ayalon

We should think very hard whether it makes sense to continue the talks under such circumstances. A grand coalition without Merkel at the top is completely unthinkable.

Friedbert Pflueger

It is better to have talks about talks than have nothing at all. I think by the middle of this month we should see some movement.

Harry Gunatillake

When an informant goes in and talks about jihad, and that you will be at the hand of Muhammad, and rattles sabers and builds up the religious fervor, to me that's a form of entrapment -- but legally it's not.

John Ransom

We've actually talked to (West Florence coach) Billy (Andrews), and Billy talks to the team.

Neville Files

If there is no solution in sight by then, we will be forced to say that talks have officially failed.

Marta Tucker

Had a lot of honest talks in that last week, reflecting on ourselves and the organization and the job, and whether it was right for me and for the team.

Theo Epstein

In the first interview, she talks about what Port Arthur was like.

Morgan Hallett

Bore, n.: A person who talks when you wish him to listen.

Ambrose Bierce

Not really. Jon has never asked me for anything and if he hasn't asked me I don't want to go and stick my nose in his business. He has done a pretty good job on his own. The Busch cars drive a little different, and I'm sure he's got guys on the Busch side that he talks to.

Jon Wood

The talks are still on-going with the chairman. But he is our club captain, a great player and we want to keep our best players at the club.

Paul Barber

Everyone always talks about (a lack of) size being a disadvantage. Size doesn't matter if you know how to play, know how to use your skills, know where your deficiencies are and try to hide them. It's the same with a 6-3 kid who's slow and can't defend someone on the perimeter.

Doug Pickarts

We all have voices in our heads which talks to us on an almost constant basis. Our voices give us messages continually, and what they say to us affects us.

Juliene Berk

Every day I'm intrigued and sometimes outraged by things that no one talks about. Current is a chance to be heard, and send think-bombs out into the world.

Catherine Hardwicke

The Syrians are going to the negotiations in Washington with full seriousness and the intention that these conversations will bear fruit and succeed. They are very interested in having these talks begin and go in the right direction.

Azmi Bishara

It's a fun aspect of the Weather Channel. It's a bit of an armchair travel thing, where Jeff talks about aspects of the area that are weather-affected and they go to different landmarks in the area.

Kathy Lane

We talk a lot, and he talks about winning. He's not talking about minutes played or how many shots he got. He's a winner. That's the key with Mike. His ego doesn't get in the way.

Henry Bibby

Had not been seen in the talks before.

David Trimble

When it talks about education, it depicts a normal educational process, where children in Cuba are subjected to propaganda and Communist indoctrination.

Frank Bolanos

I think if he was traded because of any potential talks with Playboy or anything like this, then that's a dirty, nasty, rotten trick. That's really a freedom-of-speech infringement on me. He's my husband. I'm his wife. He's not responsible for what I do and I'm not responsible for what he does. I have my own career, and it should be separated.

Anna Benson

[Oxfam, the international aid agency, said in a press release that] renewed deadlock in world trade talks due to lack of movement by the E.U. could scupper the chances of a deal being done by the end of the year and signal continued suffering for millions of poor farmers. ... Rear-guard action by the French and other E.U. member states is undermining even the minimal progress made.

Celine Charveriat

Within a reasonable space of time, I think after the summer, we can start multi-party talks on certain issues and plan our priorities.

Juan Jose Ibarretxe

We've been in talks with movie studios and record labels, and they know, we've got this great primarily male, 18- to 34-year-old demographic, which is highly sought after for them.

Aaron Greenberg

After the talks with the Europeans they know now that we haven't been planning to defeat Europe ... I think the talks (with the EU trio) will be resumed.

Ali Aghamohammadi

Everybody always talks about his shot, but they certainly underestimate how well he read the game. He could make even the most skilled forwards look silly on occasion.

Jamal Mayers

Proximity talks can be enormously useful. There are people who don't want to talk face to face and who, when they talk face to face, they don't have anything productive to say to each other.

Peter Rodman

I'm very disappointed. I thought from some of the talks we had earlier in the month we'd get something accomplished. We've been led on, a little bit, to believe we were going to get a settlement and we didn't.

Shaun Rinier

Hubert Humphrey talks so fast that listening to him is like trying to read Playboy magazine with your wife turning the pages.

Barry Goldwater

We've moved considerably forward in our talks and the chances of an agreement soon have grown significantly.

Xander Heijnen

Everyone always talks about this. Every cultural group beats at it.

Jason Sanders

The three nations plan to review the current status of talks with North Korea and exchange opinions on future policy toward North Korea.

Foreign Ministry

Climate change is the biggest threat to hockey since the NHL labor talks.

You know these people � all the people he talks about you know from your town.

Jessica Fuller

We are also ready for an immediate start to official talks with the United States on SALT 3.

Javad Vaeedi

We hope they come [to the talks] without a closed mind.

Gene Orza

It's ironic. The President talks about global competitiveness, then they cut funding.

John Twomey

He arrives early and talks to people, getting a sense of Americana.

Alfred E. Newman

The Tigers are looking for an exit and I think the next few weeks will be very, very crucial. Unless we are able to have direct talks with the Tigers soon, war will be inevitable.

Harry Gunatillake

We are not leaving Brussels without a result, and I will let it take the time it needs...If not, we will not be able to conclude the accession talks in December.

Anders Fogh Rasmussen

Ukraine has wasted time in these talks, and now there can be no talk of US$160. The market situation has changed, and it's continuing to change.

Alexander Medvedev

We are committed to peace in Sudan. So we'll keep pushing and pushing and pushing on the peace talks.

Jendayi Frazer

However, after a long pause in talks, which lasted more than a year, it would be too optimistic to expect any radical breakthroughs.

Alexander Alexeyev

We number the current economic damage at roughly 140 million euros ($167 million). We are currently in talks with federal and state governments about financial support measures.

Thomas Janning

Nobody talks so constantly about God as those who insist that there is no God.

Heywood C. Broun

Corey gives us a nasty post rotation with K.J. Sherrill and Wesley Turner. He's one of those guys that talks on the bench and communicates on the floor.

Mike Gurley

Dan is the only person that talks faster about pinot than I do.

Kevin Furtado

I've not heard of any such talks for Canadian oil sand projects. There've been so many reports recently about Chinese companies buying up assets globally.

Liu Weijiang

It's an event which entered political historical consciousness. If you think back over 20th century Australian history, there are probably only two dozen events which every Australian knows about and talks about, no matter what football code they follow or what side of politics they are on.

Guy Hansen

Although there were some very serious arguments during the talks ... still we agreed that these working-level talks were profitable, and we decided that we will arrange more talks in the future.

Akitaka Saiki

We remain in talks about what should be decided there, and what the role of the United Nations should be.

Gernot Erler

These talks were meant to deliver for development, ... It's not good enough for the big players to strike a last-minute deal that suits them but leaves poor countries out in the cold.

Celine Charveriat

From Iran's point of view the subject of the talks is to remove the suspension of the uranium processing facilities and this must happen within a clear timetable.

Hossein Entezami

It appears that options traders are bracing for volatility in Heinz and the increase in call volume suggests that many are positioning for a move higher. This might be due to the acquisition talks, but also an earnings report due out before the opening bell on February 28.

Frederic Ruffy

As a whole, this process was essentially completed by the time those talks occurred. I'm confident that when the public understands the process ... everyone will understand that nothing inappropriate has occurred here.

James Lynch

We had to arrange more people to request talks with the government. We had tried for more than two years without any response from the government.

Qu Jianping

He's always making jokes in meeting rooms and jokes on the field. Sometimes, he even talks to me when the play is going on. It's really a fun environment.

Alan Branch

You're always hopeful in contract talks. Both sides want to reach a settlement, but at this point nothing has changed.

Candice Johnson

[When he talks to Christian Zionists about the destruction of the Dome of the Rock, some say,] 'Well, this is all prophesied — it's bound to happen,' ... in an Arab-Israeli war a surface-to-surface missile aimed at Jerusalem will miss and hit the Dome of the Rock.

Timothy Weber

I was worried about a little nerves. It was either start her and get it out of her, or let her get comfortable and come in. We had a couple interesting talks on the sideline, but when it came gut-check time, we finally got it done.

Tim Kohlbecker

I had thought that North Korea might compromise even a bit in order to speed up talks on normalization of diplomatic ties, but as always our message fell on deaf ears.

Sakie Yokota

It talks a lot about the loss of rights, things we're starting to see in day-to-day politics.

John Byrom

The talks with Ukraine have dragged on for more than nine months and, regrettably, no progress has been reached.

Alexander Medvedev

He plays the game the right way. When you play the game the right way, the game comes to you. He's really quiet, but he talks with his bat and glove.

Magglio Ordonez

Sometimes it's the way somebody handles themselves and talks that lets you know. People can con you.

Heather Bishop

The union talks a tough game, but I don't think they're going to let anyone walk out. Everybody is in the same lifeboat. They're not going to start to fence with each other in a rubber lifeboat.

Sean Mcalinden

The Philippine government is deeply satisfied with the talks. We see on the horizon growing popular support in Mindanao and in the entire country for this peace process.

Silvestre Afable

We're likely to discuss things with David. We will sit down with David and his representatives, probably later this month or next month. His statements are accurate. But we're not going to comment on the nature of those talks.

Jed Hoyer

When a community is grieving and going through a mourning, when you have more than 65,000 people showing up for services and people are burying these kids, you shouldn't have a meeting that talks about selling more guns.

Wellington Webb

Based on the blood that was shed ... on the historic, political and legal arguments, these talks are imposed and unjust.

Sherif Krasniqi

David even has a list of facial expressions. He tells you which one he wants you to use for a specific moment. David never talks about character. He talks about how we're going to get a laugh.

Anna Faris

Formal talks ended last week. This week was designed to exchange final offers.

Doug Church

Our position is consistent that (North Korea) cannot return to the talks in the midst of the continued pressure (from the U.S.).

Ri Gun

With North Korea reneging on a key issue of the new disarmament agreement, U.S. negotiators are trying to keep the six-party talks going because nuclear brinksmanship makes all nations nervous.

Pamela Falk

Japan-North Korea talks would not move forward as long as the six-party talks are stalled.

Noriyuki Suzuki

[[But Portman also warned that expectations on the final outcome had been pared.] I think we have to lower expectations because the talks have lagged, ...
