In general, I tend to favor teachers over school boards in conflicts.

The politically ambitious rarely become kindergarten teachers.

Folks tend to understand that a pipeline is a temporary inconvenience.

Patrick Alvin

My performances tend to be a little bit off-centre, whatever that means.

Rachel Weisz

Sara Banaszak

Iowans tend to like mavericks. Grassley is pretty much a down-the-line Republican, but with a maverick streak.

Josh Morgan

Even at the universities that have tens of millions of dollars in licensing income, there tend to be a few (patents) that are blockbusters that make the effort worthwhile.

Theresa Walker

It smacks of unfairness. School board members don't come into the hearing with a clean and open mind. Their bias is to support the superintendent. School boards hire superintendents, and they tend to want to support the guy they brought in.

Michael Simpson

It tends to happen more often in the heavily populated areas because that's where the parties tend to be more active. It's no longer unusual.

Allan Hoffenblum

One of the things I actually learned to some extent from Doc Watson – most of us hate amplification anyway, and I think a lot of people tend not to spend a lot of time working with that. He won't start until the sound is right, and that's exactly what he needs to do.

Doug Trantham

The medium does convey a large part of the message. There is a ladder of emotional temperature attached to communications, and e-mail tend to the coldest of the lot.

David Lewis

We have found ... that they tend to wait until they have sought legal counsel or financial counsel.

Jim Haynes

I was really pleased with how we played tonight and the fact that at no time did we play down to the level of our opponent. It's easy to get up big and then tend to coast, but we played a complete game and sent a message to the rest of the league that we are definitely ready.

John Wicks

I tend to live in the past because most of my life is there.

Herb Caen

The real estate transaction is fairly complex and one of the advantages of using a professional is that they are knowledgeable of the market and they have the ability to negotiate the contract agreement. They ensure that all the details that people tend to overlook are taken care of.

Denise Garcia

When times are busy, fees tend to trend up in Asia.

When you don't have this stuff going on, people tend not to think too much about it.

Scott Moeller

Generally, though, these people are quite healthy, ... Perhaps there is an auto-inflammatory component because they tend to be tremendously resistant to infections. But if they happen to get a cold or respiratory infection, it's more likely to become a complicated issue.

Fred Kaplan

The wins against Melbourne away and Newcastle away were games we had to win to keep us in contention and we got the result. The same happened last week (in Perth) - we had to win and we got the result. When we know it's our last chance, we tend to play a lot better.

Tom Willis

You're working out, you're training. It's development for next year. If people don't play, then tend to get bummed out.

John Mott

We have been after a second revenue stream from the start, ... Advertising is always going to be cyclical. And businesses that have only one revenue stream tend not to be as healthy as those with multiple revenue streams.

Frank Kelly

Consumers tend to believe that the energy-enhancing properties are inversely proportional to the taste.

Little towns tend to do a very bad job in these things. They tend to be driven by politics rather than what their own planning staffs may recommend. Another thing: They sometimes just copy what a neighboring community has done, and they have to be so individualized.

Gary Edinger

Macintosh users tend to be a very independent type, and they tend to be very loyal to their product. They've been threatened with [Apple] going out of business and being put out of their schools and out of their companies, and they've got to fight. There's so much passion for it.

Steve Wozniak

The major key would be taking care of the ball. If we take care of the ball we tend to play a lot better. We never gave up they were just on.

Amber Fiene

Sprint often tries many technologies. In the end, we tend to see eye to eye about what the technology road map should be.

Paul Jacobs

Chinese Internet users tend to focus on online games and spend a lot less on e-commerce.

Frank Shi

The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be.

Robert Fulghum

I was drawn to them both for similar reasons, ... They're both complicated characters who are struggling with their lives. People say that Marion, the girl I played in Requiem for a Dream , was pretty dark, too, so I guess I should be careful. I tend to get offered a lot of drug-addict parts, women on the verge, so I think I'm going to do a comedy next time.

Jennifer Connelly

We have found that when companies establish a physical presence, and locate executives and senior people in a market, they tend to be successful. When companies try to manage a market remotely, they tend to be spectacularly unsuccessful.

Maurice Stilwell

Most kids who use (steroids), tend not to be real athletes. They are body-building types. That's why you can still find it in the local gyms.

Frank Sandomenico

There is a ton of research on student behavior that shows positive reinforcement and rewards are more effective than kicking them out of school. We tend to use the carrot rather than the stick.

Tom Ettel

We need a lot of work just untangling computer cables. People tend to just throw them into a box, and it comes to us like a big ball of spaghetti.

Stephen Baker

You tend to have less hearing loss listening to something you like versus something that's just scrutiny.

Joseph Smaldino

Reading it will help explain why small-town elections are best-served tending to their own knitting and not trying to ape the national stage.

Plants pollinated by bees tend to have heavier pollen that doesn't fly around as much. Wind-pollinated trees and plants tend to cause more trouble.

Sandra Mason

With the example of a Chinese stir fry, they do tend to have a lot of vegetables which is good, but you have to watch out for the oil - sunflower, corn or rape seed oil is much better than blended vegetables oils.

Nia Williams

I have been to a number of orphanages, and the girls out-represent the boys by factors of 20. Girls are much harder to place. The boys in orphanages tend to be those with severe health problems. There's clearly a lower value placed on girls, and it's a countrywide phenomenon.

Scott Baldauf

If anything, people tend to modify their travel plans before canceling them.

Cathy Keefe

Still has an opportunity to reach out to blacks during the reconstruction, giving the displaced people a role in the project. But there is a problem. Already, he has made some mistakes. No-bid contracts are going to firms with close ties to Bush, and those don't tend to be minority-owned businesses.

Ron Walters

It shows you that everything is trading-desk oriented. They tend to move in packs.

John Vail

It will give us an advantage as far as injuries. We'll see fewer, I think, because the artificial surface is softer and has more give than grass. We won't have to worry about someone stepping in a hole and turning a knee or ankle. And we won't have to worry about Mother Nature as much - when it rains, there won't be the slipping and sliding that you tend to see with grass.

Brian Woodley

There are a number of segments of the marketplace that I'd like to see us continue to reach out to and Latins is one of those. Kids from the ages of 12 until the time they get out of college are an area we need to focus on. They're great through Little League, and then through high school we tend to lose some of them.

Bob Dupuy

The regions of the brain we tend to use in our default state when we are young are very similar to the regions where plaques form in older people with Alzheimer's disease.

Randy Buckner

Graduates tend to stay in the same county. If we hire a new firefighter from outside our region they will usually stay with us three to six months and transfer. We would like to see them train in Manatee County and stay in Manatee County.

Mary Cantrell

Beware of men who cry. It's true that men who cry are sensitive to and in touch with feelings, but the only feelings they tend to be sensitive to and in touch with are their own.

Nora Ephron

We want residents to take the time and refresh the information, if it has changed. People's cell phone numbers tend to change or business phone numbers, and they may have changed jobs.

Denise Barrett

It's something that I definitely don't reflect on. I tend to look on what's ahead and try to capitalize on that.

Vernell Brown

Students shouldn't take every credit card offer they get. Students with credit cards tend to spend more than their income. Always spend within your limitations.

Valerie Henry

The market has shifted. Instead of land prices tending to push upward, more than likely, they're flat or downward.

Brad Hunter

The oil market is possibly at that dramatic stage near the end of a big run, when price swings tend to be very dramatic, and the euphoria and panic levels are at extremes.

Joe Duarte

Asian institutions tend to be more conservative than their Western equivalents. And Asian high net worth individuals are much less likely to give their money to be managed by third parties.

Mike Coleman

[The RI has a prestigious history: 14 of its resident scientists have received Nobel prizes. Yet its buildings in Albemarle Street, London, have gradually evolved into a complex, inaccessible warren.] The scientists, the admin and the public activities have become mixed up, ... And things like modern disabled access tend to be difficult for us.

Alan Winter

I don't see how you can avoid the fact that the books are riddled with sadism, racism, sexism. In books, readers tend to skate over all these horrible ambiguities. The moment they're put on film, it's very difficult to duck them.

Peter Hunt

I'm very happy to have this out of the way. It's a very emotional process and people tend to get stuck thinking about money or a lack of appreciation rather than focusing on our core work, which is teaching students.

Bart O'brien

She was always writing, tending to business, up until the last few months.

Carol Adams

From the time this game started, the guys in the middle of your lineup have hit the home runs and driven the runs in. Now, those guys tend to strike out, too.

Milt Thompson

They tend to have eye issues and can have skin allergies because of all of the wrinkles. They were originally raised as Chinese guard dogs and can be more aloof than other breeds sometimes.

Julie Quinn

The statistics seem to be in Jill Carroll's favor. People tend to lead to the conclusion of the beheadings we've seen on television when they hear of someone being taken hostage or kidnapped because those images are the most vivid.

Peter Mandaville

Children tend to eat their own lunches and are less likely to swap if they are involved in the planning stages.

Tina Thompson

My look hasn't changed in years. It's a uniform of T-shirts, ripped jeans and cowboy boots. I have a black fitted suit that I wear on the odd occasion when I have to dress up, but I tend to have rocky things in my wardrobe that I pull out and recycle.

Suzi Quatro

It just means gridlock. Whenever our beloved elected leaders are handcuffed, the markets tend to do all right.

Art Cashin

I decided to use black-and-white for the film, because that is the image of adolescence to me. We see teen films all the time where the colors are very bright and always changing. But teens tend to look at things in very specific terms. They believe in things one way or the other, and they see themselves and the people around them one way or the other.

Fernando Eimbcke

The larger fish tend to spawn earlier, but the big fish will suddenly decide to move and that's going to occur in a fairly short period of time.

Dave Terre

Of course, it'll probably be north of $100 million, as they tend to be, because these days, ironically enough, there's an awful lot of films that are costing that, but beyond that, I can't tell you.

Martin Campbell

Principals and other administrators tend to have a good idea about people who could benefit the process. We're fortunate to live in a community where there is no shortage of people willing to help.

Richard Sundblad

We expect to see continued, although slower growth in housing. Higher interest rates will tend to dampen home sales somewhat. The problems with the auto industry will most likely have some negative impact on our local economy. However, the positive initiatives happening at Purdue and in the Purdue Research Park may tend to offset any negatives from the auto industry.

Bill Connors

Juries tend to be offended by the idea that consultants are watching their every move and predicting how they are thinking. Nobody likes feeling manipulated.

Jacob Zamansky

[The salt in the wounds for the industry: Short-haul flights tend to command higher fares.] There's a lot of business travel in short haul, ... That certainly hurt us.

John Heimlich

People tend to like it here.

Hank Fishkind

It's the idea that people living close to nature tend to be noble. It's seeing all those sunsets that does it. You can't watch a sunset and then go off and set fire to your neighbor's tepee. Living close to nature is wonderful for your mental health.

Daniel Quinn

We tend to build for the last storm.

Craig Colten

What happens is that women tend to panic when they're losing it. Whereas, generally speaking, men, rather than panic, go to another place: resignation. At a U.S. Open, panic is worse. Your brain floods, everything slips away, and there is nothing you can do.

Carol Mann

Like anything else in venture capital, you tend to allocate capital to those companies that can yield the highest returns. It would have been a mistake to invest substantially when it was apparent that we would not be receiving great returns.

Mark Booth

Now the tobacco grower has more to tend to. I got more business looking at some of their secondary crops. So my success here does come indirectly from the growth of contract farming.

Warren Hardy

We didn't want to penalize the kids who tend to get really involved.

Shelly Korengel

The guys were just going from one crash to the next crash. We tend to get two to three times more collisions on a wet day than we do on a dry day.

Kelly Baraga

We tend to reduce it to something simple like the Internet is good or the Internet is bad.

Linda Jackson

Teams like to pressure us. We tend to get frazzled. We have excellent ball-handlers, but we didn't pass the ball the way we should. That is how you break the press. We just were out of step all night.

Brittany Grice

So long as they don't threaten a nuclear exchange, some differences between India and Pakistan do not worry the Americans. Pakistanis also tend to expect too much from the Americans on such perennial issues as Kashmir.

Professor Jafar Ahmad

I think it's human nature that we all tend to do much better in groups than we do alone.

Richard Young

There remains uncertainty Multinational companies often tend to show lower profits through 'creative accounting' practice.

Nazrul Islam

Typing is an essential skill, but it can be painful. Some children just don't know where the letters are. Typing a three-page story, when they have to spend minutes hunting for every letter, can take forever. Yet we tend to assume that children can type, partly because quite a lot of us know where quite a lot of the letters are, so we assume that children do, too.

Susan Mitchell

This is a very rare incident to happen. Mountain lions tend to be very elusive. Typically mountain lions don't want any part of people.

Tyler Baskfield

Behaviorally, kids tend to have noisy activities. They tend to crank up the volume.

Christa Nuber

We've always felt that when you change coaches, you become like an expansion team, because you're starting over, in a sense. Football is our family business, and we tend to believe that you're better served [with stability]. We kind of think that patience isn't such a bad virtue to have.

Dan Rooney

It's really a problem of appearances in most cases. In 99 percent of the cases, it's something that looks bad, but you don't frequently have legislators who are necessarily swayed by this. But it is a concern. It can undermine public confidence. What people see they tend to believe, whether or not at its core it really is as nefarious as all that.

Cindi Canary

People tend to vote the present tense -- not the subjective.

Diane Sawyer

As a result, you need to keep a close eye on these investments to make sure, for example, the discounts do not pose a threat to performance and the trust is not overly geared. For reasons such as these, advisers tend to shy away in case their recommendations backfire.

Justin Modray

That certainly does not parallel previous estimates. It may be that communities where blacks live tend to be heavily policed. Black parents may rely upon police more (than other groups) when their kids go missing. There also may be simply more missing-child episodes among black families.

David Finkelhor

When you tell people at a convention that you're from New Hampshire, they tend to hold on to your hand a little longer and look into your eyes a little deeper, ... But beyond that, there was no overt, 'Are you with me if I go?'

Tom Rath

I would tend to believe you have a combination of factors. I think in general it seems the smaller restaurants . . . have an advantage over larger restaurants because they turn the tables over several times a night.

Dewey Mitchell

Men tend to be attracted to online activities that are far more action-oriented, while women tend to value things involving relationships or human connections.

Deborah Fallows

This is not something that's been studied systematically. It's more of an impression. But it's an impression by enough people that it makes you wonder what's out there. It could be because twins tend to be biologically premature, then maybe they don't achieve as highly as non-twins.

Nancy Segal

The Bay Area is shaped by fire. We tend to forget it.

Jennifer Chapman

Whenever you get a traumatic event happening in society, you tend to see certain reactions to it, such as irritability, depression, confused thinking and sleep problems, ... In that context, rational decision-making becomes very difficult. People tend to begin to let their thought processes be guided by their anxieties.

Richard Geist

Dividend tax relief and low interest rates tend to buoy some of the stocks, but the sector's fundamentals continue to deteriorate.

Patrick Brogan

We think the market will tend toward a normalized range in 2006.

Tony Polito

Concerns about ethics tend to be episodic, and those episodes are stimulated when there are horror strikes. And, of course, Tennessee Waltz was a real horror story.

Bruce Oppenheimer

Just her work ethic rubs off on everybody else. She's always going 100 percent, and I think people see that out of her and tend to pick it up, too. The main thing I like out of her is if you need a person who's going to go get rebounds and get in there on defense and get on the ball. A lot of kids do that, and Danielle thinks that's her role and she does a good job of it.

Bobby Ervin

Tea can have just as much caffeine, we just tend to find that it takes longer to hit you, it's more of a steady buzz. Where coffee brings you up then down pretty quickly.

Courtney Kammerer

Matteo does running to build up physical endurance. Drivers who don't tend to come out of their cars very drained. They become vegetables after a race. That's how exhausting it can be, it isn't at all about merely sitting in a car and driving.

Noy Jopson

Generally speaking, when we get better rains the pig numbers tend to go up; when we have droughts the pig numbers tend to go down.

Terry Palmisano

Women tend to share experiences. From Day 1, you're talking about problems you've had with kids or other areas specific to women. We talk a lot and share a lot, and never consider it complaining.
