Scott Bender

Gia Russo

The students have planned the entire show from conception, to deciding what theme it would be, to selecting the models, and selecting the stores that we will be featuring. They write the commentary, they are the commentators, and they are physically making the clothes.

The color theme is very, very fall.

Preston Bailey

Each show is theme-based. For example, one of our shows is called 'Recess,' so it's a pretty clear flag and indicator that we're doing very family-friendly products on that one. Then we have another episode called 'Swank Attire,' which is everything about how to throw a cocktail party.

Cathie Filian

People will still come to the theme parks, and, in Florida, we have the Keys. I get requests for the Keys all the time. But what I get a lot of is outside-of-Florida destinations, like Las Vegas and New York City.

Adrienne Anderson

Theme-park approach to nature. We judge plants and animals by whether they're entertaining to us. We gravitate toward animals and plants that are big, dramatic, beautiful and at eye-level.

John Abraham

It's education outside of the classroom, not from a book. The students and adults have the experience of being there as opposed to looking at a picture. The central theme was children helping children.

Don Cairns

He was a visionary. He was a genuine theme-park pioneer. He had great creativity and tremendous drive and stamina.

Bob Gault

Composers in the old days used to keep strictly to the base of the theme, as their real subject. Beethoven varies the melody, harmony and rhythms so beautifully.

A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what's behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.

Stanley Kubrick

My secret ambition was always to provide music for animation films: something with an Indian theme, either a fairy tale or mythological tale or on the Krishna theme. I still have a very deep desire, but these sorts of chances don't always come.

Ravi Shankar

I'm not real sure people are too interested right now in more taxes for a water theme park. If they want to go to one, it's still cheaper for them to drive to Magic Springs.

Phillip Brown

[The theme of the two-hour film is,] What is true love, and how do you know it when you see it? Is it that passionate, romantic, crazy feeling, or the history you build together over many years of being with each other? ... Emotions run very high in this movie. It's like a comic opera.

Patricia Heaton

We don't set out to have a particular theme, but sometimes certain themes emerge.

Every city has something unique that something nice could work out. This is something that is not in town right now, this type of structure or this type of theme. I am really going for a Charleston look in a small town.

Guri Sandhu

The theme is absolutely important. We don't realize how much of our lives are absolutely random.

Robert J. Shiller

What used to seem inappropriate has become commonplace. The question is: Is Discovery going to make clear about whether Disney funded the programs or provided any services? Essentially, if it's nothing more than an infomercial, will it be presented as such? Or will it be presented as an independent production that's separate from promoting a theme park?

Craig Aaron

This theme is continuing and not just in the mining stocks, but in any related sectors. This is a macroeconomic trend.

We are getting the investment we need to see, ... It continues the theme of rebalancing in the economy: slowing consumer spending and housing being replaced with stronger exports and investment.

Those kids were the pioneers, but this team felt the same goals were realistic even though we lost some good kids. Their theme since the beginning was, 'It's our turn.' They believed that.

Pat Fitterer

That was one of the elements. Just getting older and also I'm a New Yorker, so 9-11 on a broader level had something to do with it. I work as I go so I have a file of things that go back a few years and I think probably the last Steely Dan album, (2003's) Everything Must Go, had some things on this theme, too. But this is on a more personal level.

Donald Fagen

Let it be understood, in the first place, that a science fiction story must be an exposition of a scientific theme and it must be also a story.

With M&A still a key theme for equity markets, this methodology can continue to outperform.

Every year organizer of the cultural night is different, so every year theme of the night is different.

Charles Ogletree

He'll keep up the Greenspan theme that the Fed's no. 1 goal is to keep inflation under control.

Alexandre Louzada

Branson is located within a day's drive of 1/3 of the country's population and this makes us very accessible to families looking for world-class entertainment, theme parks, shopping, and outdoor and lake recreation.

Robert Kindler

The whole theme of the project is exquisite -- exquisite and expensive.

Simon Snellgrove

The theme of the play is strict fundamentalism vs. the freedom to think. My vision was to try to recreate that as best we can. The audience will be bathing in it.

Luigi Speranza

All the speakers have some connection to the Vatican and have different insights on a common theme.

Kathleen Hohl

The whole arena theme was a little intimidating at first. But we got used to it once we started playing.

Antonio Jeremiah

We have been hoping to (build the Disney theme park) for quite a long time. Shanghai has the right conditions all the preparatory work is in the pipeline.

[But after an immediate uproar here, the Brazilian Foreign Ministry began backpedaling.] There is no accord yet, only an idea, ... This is a theme that needs to be examined when we receive a concrete proposal.

Celso Amorim

One guy whose phone was programmed for the theme song from 'The Sting' was getting calls every five minutes. We couldn't figure out which phone it was to turn it off.

Bruce Patterson

Inflation is a massive theme because we are in a rising-interest-rate environment. I think there is enough pressure for the European Central Bank to raise interest rates fairly aggressively.

Jane Foley

The one line that connects it all is the theme of myth and resurrection.

Daniel Valdez

I think we chose the Mardi Gras Masquerade theme as a result of the influence of Hurricane Katrina earlier this year. It will be sort of a Cajun-Louisiana effect with the combination of arts.

Jeannine Lipez

You'll notice the common theme is the grill. That way we'll only have to wash a limited number of pots.

Ralph Brennan

The era of conglomerates is out of favor - the market favors corporate clarity and generally discounts conglomerates. The theme here is a focus on synergies.

Robert Kindler

We are the only garden I know of that has such a diverse display as this. Other gardens have native areas, but they are largely variations on a theme.

Paul Cox

It will dispel the notion that the U.S. is a permanent occupying force, a theme used by the insurgents to justify their continued attacks.

Frank Pallone

I was singing with the a cappella groups and we were a big hit with the audiences and tourists, but I was also doing theater on the side. I would be talking to theater audiences afterward and I realized those theater audiences had never seen an a cappella group at a theme park before. They'd never heard anybody making music with just their voices.

René Ruiz

Heating fuel stocks are going to be a theme all through winter. Every single refinery outage will feed concern.

Geoff Pyne

I researched speak-easies in D.C. -- on Georgia Avenue and in Northwest -- during the Prohibition Era. I wanted to stick with that theme.

Joe Englert

(Comdex) got so large it had to move into other convention halls. If (CES) does it right, I don't think it will be a problem. Having the separate (theme) areas so people know where to go, it's easier for people to adjust what they want to see.

Heather Skinner

This bill fits very nicely into the theme that the governor has been pounding, and it comes down to one simple message about preparedness. It's up to you.

Bill Herrle

This year, the theme of the cookie sale is Be Brilliant. Girls will be coming up with brilliant and creative ideas to sell Girl Scout cookies. And in the process, participants will learn finance skills, public speaking, marketing and customer service, goal planning and a variety of other life skills that will help them succeed in the future.

Belinda Wright

We're all born with natural talents for something. Trying to match up those natural talents with their dreams, that's the general theme. Kids go to school and they do school work, but no one tells them why it matters.

Rep. Marco Rubio

In every bit of honest writing in the world, there is a base theme. Try to understand men, if you understand each other you will be kind to each other. Knowing a man well never leads to hate and nearly always leads to love.

John Steinbeck

The theme parks know what their expenses are. I'm sure they're trying to appeal to as many people as possible with the range of pricing. And Florida resident prices were hiked because they were pretty low.

Jerry Aldrich

Burying Katrina is the theme, getting some closure, just putting it to rest for a minute.

Michael Stanton

If there's one selection that presents our theme it is 'A Gift for Every Child' performed by the sixth grade chorus. It really reflects everything we're trying to do with this project.

Ron Beers

The AIDS 2006 theme recognizes the need to accelerate scientific research while also dramatically expanding access to the knowledge and tools currently available to prevent new infections and prolong life among people living with HIV or AIDS.

Helene Gayle

Our organization was founded in 1955 so it stood to reason that we would do a '50s theme. This event is meant to take us back to honor the founding families of our United Way.

Julie Martineau

It could change, but at this point Democrat dreams of corruption being a central theme are not there in public opinion.

Glen Bolger

We are going for a flat market in aggregate for next year, with a bit of upside in the first quarter running through to the last Fed rate hike and then a growth slowdown theme.

Ben Funnell

We're hoping to cover different decades over the last 50 or 60 years. We're trying a musical theme.

Andrea Cooper

It's a real honest-to-goodness hard-luck town in a lot of ways. But it's a hardy town. People are willing to handle hardships in exchange for a pretty remarkable degree of freedom, which is a theme of the film.

Chris Deaux

It's a theme that encourages us to deliberately seek experiences and conversations that extend our understanding, that challenge our firmly held beliefs, that honor the new and the unfamiliar and that take us a bit out of our comfort zones.

Larry Vanderhoef

Every presidency has a main theme, a central purpose, ... Different presidents have different strengths.

Richard Freeland

When I go to Florida for Christmas I always take my nieces and nephews out on excursions, ... I become like a big kid again. We go on all the big rides at the theme parks or I stick them in go-karts where their feet can't quite reach the pedals. I think that if you can continue to have the child at heart you may grow old physically but you will stay young mentally.

John Barrowman

It's called 'Cry Traitor,' which I may just let the Internet take because it fits with the theme of the tour. 'So you wanna cry traitor every time we disagree.' That's what they tend to do.

Stephen Stills

That was our theme all along — survive and advance. We pretty much had our backs to the wall the last two weeks. We just managed to find a way to win.

Tony Taylor

It began to complement the ski hill and the (Badger State) winter games. It was focused then mostly on winter sports. It has since evolved to a winter theme.

Ann Jaroski

That?s funny that you say that, because I was trying to think, what's the theme of this record really, and I would say passion and frustration. New rock is frustrated. I'm an incredibly frustrated person. I think you could see that in my performance. That?s how I vent my frustration.

Chantal Claret

I think the dominant theme is the extraordinary strength in the PC market and obviously the microprocessor market in the fourth quarter.

Charles Boucher

We kept things in the Olympic theme because there was so much excitement when the USA men's curling team won the bronze.

Nancy Haggenmiller

The intent on doing this was to try to get around the faddish diets. The theme is based on behavior, nutrition and physical activity.

Robert Eckel

Their last shipment of barley had some green peas in it. We like green peas mixed in here in America. Their theme was they don't want any green peas in the grain. With feed barley, all parties need to pay more attention and take extra care.

Bob Candee

The theme is, 'We're the PGA Tour, we're supporting New Orleans, we look forward to seeing you, we look forward to coming back and we believe in you. We're not trying to script it, but picture six weeks of commercials, with 15 to 20 players saying they're coming to New Orleans. We think it will make an impact.

John Subers

The tale is probably over 100 years old and told all around the world. Its theme is common among all races and people -- you have to overcome fear on your own.

Nancy Davis

Gum-chewing Americans, loaded with money and ignorant of history, might succeed in appropriating the country as the 51st state [or] the United Kingdom Theme Park Inc.

Steve Lohr

Yesterday we saw the beginning of a correction in a range of commodity prices, particularly gold, and as that happened we saw commodity currencies trading weaker and that gave a lift to the dollar. That theme is still valid.

Teis Knuthsen

It's not so much about a French theme. It was to give the casino an air of sophistication.

Joe Yung

Each group has something to offer. They all identify with the theme of 'One Love.' They all come with a love of their culture and who they are.

Jessica Marshall

We're a bunch of geeks, ... We're not cool at all. We're the geekiest band out there, let me tell you, so it's an honor to do the theme song for such a cool international spy.

Butch Vig

It was an easy transition for me. Much of the park's entertainment is theatrical, which is my training, plus I used to go to theme parks a lot in the US when I was growing up. This is also a chance to work with brilliant people and create new material.

Bobby Garcia

The booking trends at theme parks are still quite hard to read. As we look forward ... in the near term it's difficult to read the signs.

Tom Staggs

We have a great time during our campaign. This year our campaign theme is the American Bandstand. The campaign kickoff will be a lot of fun with bandstand music, food, and dancing.

John Coulter

That's kind of a theme when we play Colorado College. They're trying to get under my skin a little bit.

Kellen Briggs

The preacher, too, his Sunday theme lays down, To know what last new folly fills the town; Lively or sad, life's meanest, mightiest things, The fate of fighting cocks, or fighting king.

Charles Sprague

Everything to do with travel and leisure and theme parks and hotels and casinos is just getting mashed. But I think once people get over their shock and sadness, a vacation might seem like a good idea.

Ralph Wanger

There's a lot of class spirit, school spirit. There's not a lot of pressure to dress up. This year, our theme is 'Neon Nights.' Everything is going to be blacklit. The students wanted to move away from tradition.

Greg Miller

The themes have to do with immigration, our past, and are we guilty when we're 6 years old, ... For me, the big subject is not what my husband in the film (Daniel Auteuil) has done as a child, but in not recognizing his fault, he's damaged someone's life. The theme is universal; it doesn't just belong to the French-Algerian past, but triggers something we all can share.

Juliette Binoche

[The theme of his upcoming album, which follows his short Christmas CD released last year, is] pretty much love, ... Not sexual love, but love as in 'love your neighbor.'

George Huff

A theme that has always interested me is the difference between how thing appear and how they are. Image versus reality, etc.

Curtis Hanson

For (Far Away Blues) I wrote a bunch of half songs on the piano and the guitar, and then I had kind of theme going because I had it in mind who I wanted to have on the CD. And that was my grandfather, so I had kind of a family theme going. It's different for everything I do.

Adam Carroll

As long as the theme is virulent, we will keep asking the question.

Bernhard Schwank

In a sense, this book tells two stories. One is the history of bridge engineering that explains, in sometimes technical terms, how bridges are designed and built. The other is the story told by the images, far more revealing than any body of writing. Both stories are intertwined in the theme that bridges are very distinctive features on Vermont's landscape.

Robert Mccullough

The theme is the theme of humiliation, which is the square root of sin, as opposed to the freedom from humiliation, and love, which is the square root of wonderful.

Carson Mccullers

We believe that any immigrant — any immigrant — residing in this nation has a right — a right — to have access to the process allowing U.S. citizenship. No ifs. No buts. And, we feel that the underlying theme is that there is nothing more un-American than to be anti-immigrant.

Alvaro Cifuentes

It's playing on a familiar theme, a familiar theme for Republicans, that no matter what Democrats say, they are going to tax you.

David Rebovich

That was quite significant and had the potential of giving him a theme for his administration.

Bob Benedetti

[A slight nautical theme rounds out the experience with some port hole windows and a light tower. Then there's the large balcony overlooking the lake.] It looks nothing like the old building, but you can't save some of the buildings, ... ...You can't preserve history entirely. It's impossible.

Richard Willis

Our theme is, ?Every walker counts in a community that cares,? because a walk like this shows the number of people who do care. I think the numbers speak loudly and are overwhelming that this is a great place to live.

Jen Schlegel

UMSL has a huge multicultural base and we wanted to incorporate not just the traditional homecoming theme of stars and the moon, we wanted something kind of different this year.

Tanzeena Hossain

The one regret I have about my own abortions is that they cost money that might otherwise have been spent on something more pleasurable, like taking the kids to movies and theme parks.

Barbara Ehrenreich

Karl had expressed his horror in the past at the thought of a rectal examination, and I thought this 'fear' was a nice theme.

The whole entire Office of Student Life and UPB decided on the theme. We wanted something catchy.

Shanna Carpenter

The most obvious image and the way the theme is used is Blair as Bush's poodle.

Dave Brown

I'll publish right or wrong. Fools are my theme, let satire be my song.

Lord Byron

We're changing the theme from welcoming in 2006 to the start of a Giants' run that takes them all the way to the Super Bowl. Let's just say the decorations will be a lot bluer than they would normally be.

Tim Morgan

This is probably not going to meet muster. That seems so preferential that it doesn't seem to me that it would stand up. How can you single them out to exempt them from taxes and not every other theme park?

Dexter Douglass

That (the previous theme) was a huge topic and this time we want to narrow it down a little bit.

Debra Kocher

This is a theme that I think investors are missing, because as tech and retail companies continue to warn about profit shortfalls, there are no revisions in the drug area.

David Saks

As a fan, I want to read a lot into it. But being on the inside of negotiations and knowing their (Super Bowl) theme, I can't read a lot into it. They originally wanted to have it at Hollywood and Highland, but they couldn't get the permits to close the streets as long as they needed.

Pat Lynch

The theme of mergers and acquisitions is going to remain a real motor for stocks. No industry is sheltered from it. Today is another demonstration of that.

Christophe Donay

Only the most acute and active animals are capable of boredom. - A theme for a great poet would be God's boredom on the seventh day of creation.

Lewis Cass

We've done a 'naked' show, Christmas in July, a beach theme during the summer there's usually a theme show, although there's also a lingerie show next Saturday.

Shannon Sawicki

Pick a theme and work it to exhaustion... the subject must be something you truly love or truly hate.

Dorothea Lange

Discrimination is a very delicate theme in Mexico.

Virginia Jaramillo

I just don't believe in theme nights. The alcohol is already cheap; if we lowered prices any more, we'd be out of business.

Craig Kempton

The market will move relatively sideways in the absence of any stimulus. There's a lack of trading theme.

Ben Kwong

I think it's just a coincidence that we're Ringside and the theme of the video is a boxing thing, ... It's more a metaphor for what the song is about.

Balthazar Getty

We see (the theme) as an explosion in all directions... It symbolizes that we all start in the same place and move in our own direction.

Daniella Caranci

If you look across all markets, there seems to be a common theme of reduction of risk.

Mark Chandler

Charter schools are raising the bar about what's possible-and what should be expected--in public education. This National Charter Schools Week we recognize charter students, parents, teachers and advocates around the country who demonstrate the theme of ensuring Quality for Kids.

Nelson Smith

A common theme among this year's CPG & Retail Excellence Award winners, which we've seen among best-in-class CPG companies, is leveraging new and innovative ways to develop deeper consumer insights that drive organic growth both for manufacturers and retailers.

Scott Langdoc

I approach my work musically a lot in terms of the way maybe a jazz musician would approach an improvisation on a theme.

Andy Garcia

That's been our theme lately, comebacks. We've got to start playing better basketball in the first half. I guess we're a team that doesn't play well until the chips are down.

Russell Stephens

I played, like, a year of piano until I learned the Pink Panther theme. That was my goal. Once I was good enough, I quit. Now my music has to have some rock.

Jack Black

We wanted the space to be very much centered around the theme of an old mansion.

Shaun Treacy

We decided to go ahead and change the theme. Picking the name probably took longer than anything else.

John Limberopoulos

I knew it would be. Our theme for this week was holding on to the rope. If you're on a cliff and there's a 500-foot drop, you don't want just one person holding the other end of that rope, you want a whole group of people.

Bill Tribou

There are moments when you feel trapped, ill at ease. A year later the same feeling can turn out to be the theme of a book.

Francoise Sagan

We are very excited about this opportunity. The response from schools, community groups, and local artists has been extensive. Based on the interest we have received, outstanding student and community art will be displayed - including photographs; oil, watercolor and multimedia paintings; quilts; poetry and music - all with the theme of forests.

Terry Mcateer

He made evident that a jazz pianist can translate to popular culture. He wrote the theme to the TV show 'Taxi,' that's him playing the piano at the beginning.

Steve Bailey

It's not meant to be faux; it's meant to have a very upscale, sophisticated Italian theme. It will give us two properties in one location.

Rob Goldstein

With the Texas Teacher of the Year (Karen Shepherd of Plano Senior High School) right here in Plano ISD, a Texas theme is most appropriate.

Karla Oliver

Like Disney's other theme parks and resorts around the world, Hong Kong Disneyland will offer the excitement of a day and night full of magic and begin what we hope will be a lifetime full of memories that will touch the hearts of millions. We will put a new face on family entertainment in Asia and bring smiles to the faces of all who come to visit us.
