Murakami has said that what always fascinates him most are the things he doesn't understand. And his work is filled with people who are in that somewhat inchoate state of being on the threshold of knowing, but not quite knowing -- which can be maddening, but which can also make you giddy.
Frank Galati

Scott Miller
I'm structuring a program that's going to be individualized based on 'X' pitcher. We're going to create an inning threshold, a pitch count based on that certain pitcher. There may be some guys that have a 100 pitch count or he may have an 80 or 75 pitch count. It all depends on the person's strength, arm action and mechanics. All of that will play a role in our decision making.
Johnny Almaraz

Byron Paulson
In law, in general, there is an obligation and duty to maintain and preserve evidence if you have reason to know that litigation could ensue. That doesn't mean you have to wait to the day the complaint comes across the threshold.
Gregory Johnson
I was surprised, because I was assuming that either the no-limit would raise conversion so high that it would win, or that just keeping the threshold high, which would keep the average order value high, would win. I didn't expect the middle.
Brian Platter
Lowering the threshold for use of atomic weapons is in itself dangerous.
Sergei Ivanov
As you have acknowledged in your letter and public comments, there are a number of issues that need to be addressed in connection with your proposal.

Angela King
We got to (the bidders') threshold a little faster than we thought.
Rick Maddalena
Don't expect a new government to arrive and somebody to flip a switch to make everything look just fine again. We're at a painful threshold that we need to cross in order to see an improvement later. In the short run, the measures will burden private households.
Ralph Solveen

Vic Santoro
Increasing the small-business threshold from $300,000 to $400,000 is terrific news for any small business owner, and decreasing the small business rate from 12 to 11 per cent, again, good news.
Shannon Martin
The relaxation procedure helped both groups cope with pain. Additionally, our tests showed both groups had higher physical pain thresholds after the relaxation session. But the obese participants still had a lower threshold for tolerating the pain.

Marc Racicot
We're standing at the threshold of a new era in high-performance computing.
Linton Brooks
The enemies of the state will always test a new threshold of destabilization but they will never dent the rock steady foundations of our constitutional democracy.

Ignacio Bunye
By making transportation more convenient for our parents by reducing the threshold from a mile to three-quarters of a mile, we believe that it will be an incentive for families to stay within Cincinnati Public Schools and maybe even return to Cincinnati Public Schools from charter schools.

Richard Tomlinson
Interest in reading memoirs is universal. What has happened is that people are writing about more and more outrageous things. Our threshold for weirdness - you can't have just a normal childhood - has gone way up.
Sara Nelson
Hope smiles on the threshold of the year to come, whispering that it will be happier.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
The capacity of the human organism to bear pain is, for our own protection, limited. All attempts to overstep this natural threshold by resolving repression in a violent manner will, as with every other form of violation, have negative and often dangerous consequences.
Alice Miller
I think the most important point of this preliminary study is that obese individuals may have a lower threshold for pain [possibly due to chronic inflammation associated with obesity], which is not evident if we rely solely on self-report of pain.
Charles Emery
Obviously, under this approach, the scope for mergers would be far greater in metropolitan areas than regional areas, where there are many markets that would already be close to, or at, this threshold.

Jim Smitham
For us, this is a glance of what the future is going to be like, where 300-pound linemen, give or take 10 pounds, are going to be the norm. It's a fact of life, but what we're seeing is the threshold of some of these bodies.
Jeff Hogan
Like it or not, there is a very high threshold for what is 'crossing the line' in terms of being overly suggestive. These teens today are exposed to a lot in popular culture.
Michael Wood
It is not unprofessional to give free legal advice, but advertising that the first visit will be free is a bit like a fox telling chickens he will not bite them until they cross the threshold of the hen house.
Warren E. Burger
Anyone that is around our children, there has to be a thorough background check. If we value our children, surely we can put a higher threshold on (teachers).
Laura Hudson
Sixty per cent seems like a high threshold. But if it requires sixty per cent provincially, I'm not sure what the rationale is to say that if you can get it passing at sixty per cent of the districts with a threshold of fifty per cent plus one, there just doesn't seem to be a rationale that carries through. It may be somewhat confusing to the electorate.
Leonard Russell
In a system like New York, we want to create a variety of choices. As long as they meet a minimum threshold of performance, they're addressing the needs of parents and families who have a preference for that type of education. One size doesn't fit all in a system like this.
Bob Hughes
We are still going to be collecting to make sure we are well over the threshold, but we have the 500.
Joe Ganley
The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail, its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter, the rain may enter -- but the King of England cannot enter; all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement!
William Pitt The Elder
[It is yet to be determined, for instance, just how much of a role the federal government will play in picking up the tab.] It depends on a threshold question: What are you going to rebuild? What is the federal responsibility for rebuilding a city, a metropolitan area or a region? This is where it gets really confused, ... Federalism is a messy business.

Joe Mclaughlin
Because BCD galaxies are metal poor and very compact, the intense ultraviolet radiation from young stars will destroy PAH molecules even if they are formed. The threshold for when these PAH molecules stop being destroyed is still uncertain.
Yanling Wu

Masuhisa Kobayashi
Seattle has not adjusted the tax threshold since 1994, ... The raised threshold offsets the effect of inflation since that time.
Greg Nickels
My teammates' energy was fantastic and we fed off each other the entire game; that's really what pushed us over that threshold. We hadn't had a 90-point game in a while, hadn't had this kind of enthusiasm and effort. So it was great to have, especially considering what tomorrow is.
Angie Brown
This opens up a myriad of possibilities for us to develop programming that we have never heretofore been able to offer, so it's a very exciting juncture for us. It's the threshold of a new day for us.
Michael Ballam
The results suggest the threshold is close to the end of this century, and it could come sooner. The Arctic is already warming much faster than we thought it would. To think we're not going to get 4 to 5 degrees warmer in another 50 years is wishful thinking.
Jonathan Overpeck
Recent statements by some commentators may have led remaining shareholders to expect an imminent higher offer if AMP Property Portfolio does not reach the 90% threshold. This is a false expectation and reliance on it could have negative financial consequences for those shareholders.
Stephen Costley

Don Meredith
Previously, I believe it's been an individual effort but I see signs among my colleagues and I that we do have genuine interest in working together as well as competing when necessary. There was a day where we always saw ourselves in competition. I think we've crossed the threshold of seeing each other as only competition.
Lowell Junkins
We are at a critical threshold. We are going to make decisions within the next year that are either going to fix the delta, or we are going to use it essentially as a way station to transport water to Southern California.
Bill Jennings
Alabama now has become the only state with an income tax threshold below one-half of the poverty line. Every other state that taxed the incomes of the poor in the early 1990s has reduced or eliminated this tax burden. Alabama stands alone in its failure to act.
Nicholas Johnson
It's diabolical. Every dollar you make above the threshold isn't taxed as $1; it's taxed as $1.50 or $1.85.
Lonell Spencer
We may be at the threshold of a whole new wave of terrorism. This information getting in the wrong hands, obviously, would cause quite a lot of havoc to ourselves, and to our country, and to our allies.
Tony Villa
I have no doubt that the threshold [of suffering] may be crossed if a late applicant with no means and no alternative sources of support, unable to support himself is, by deliberate action of the state, denied shelter, food or the most basic necessities of life.
Lord Bingham
The problem is these dogs are bred solely to fight, so they have a very low threshold of tolerance of other dogs and if they feel as though they're threatened in any way, this genetic conditioning kicks in and they become a raging beast.
Hugh Wirth
Never have I found the limits of the photographic potential. Every horizon, upon being reached, reveals another beckoning in the distance. Always, I am on the threshold.
W. Eugene Smith

Jeff Rubin
At the end of a run you often hear people say: 'I'm ready to start working with this group of people. You just get to that threshold where you feel you are really cooking and it's over.
Pamela Rabe
Most likely the whole of the front section has been flooded and the staff in those sections died in the first minutes of the accident. In fact we have crossed the critical borderline of survival which we have allocated to the crew according to our guidelines. We've been crossing this threshold yesterday, today and maybe tomorrow.
Mikhail Motsak
The real issue is how high does that threshold need to be.
John Freeman
The process is slow in happening. The level at which the consumer starts making changes is pretty inelastic, In other words, it takes a high threshold of pain before they start making changes.
Carl Steidtmann
[Gabriel points out that Jackson also appears to be a victim of the new NBA economics. With so many teams at or near the expected luxury tax threshold, there just isn't the same demand for players seeking mid-level money.] A lot of players think they can get it, ... But they find out the market just isn't there.
John Gabriel
We've crossed a threshold today. We're going to have a comprehensive smoking ban approved by early next year.
Phil Mendelson

Stefan Willich

Rob Brzezinski
Actually, he was over the threshold of dying. Doctors told me to make final arrangements.
James Davis
We're at the threshold of a whole new way of thinking of what it is to be a Christian.
James Carroll
Above the 800 a day threshold we would have to produce the car in Europe. We will reach a decision in May, but we cannot say yet in which country it might be produced.
Ferdinand Piech
We should definitely be looking at something lower. The exact value is unclear, but somewhere between 65 decibels and 75 decibels. It is particularly important to focus on people with known cardiovascular disease to improve prevention for them, either by not exposing them chronically to heavy noise or by lowering the threshold for protective wear.
Stefan Willich
You can reduce the risk, but you're not going to eliminate it, and you're not going to bring it down very far, ... Last year in the U.S., we crossed the threshold: There are now more former smokers than current smokers. People can see there are 47 million people who are now former smokers, so it's not impossible.
Thomas Glynn
My boredom threshold is low at the best of times but I have spent more time being slowly and excruciatingly bored by children than any other section of the human race.
Jill Tweedie
Once we cross this threshold, we've lost something we can never get back.
Bill Edmonds
These are the best of times for the San Antonio housing market. We are on the threshold of our best economy ever, and that, in turn, is the primary reason for grand expectations for our housing market over the next couple of years. San Antonio is turning into a big city and all the greatness that goes along with it.
Jack Inselmann
I see the student turnout being incredibly important as far as putting me over the threshold for getting a seat on the council.
