Richard Feynman
The number in the first four years has basically been the same since 1998. Four years, $24, $25 million. So I assume they'd be very happy to keep that number there. The fifth and sixth years of a contract at that level are what would normally correspond to with a guy's free-agency contract. So that's why I don't think it's very unreasonable for the numbers to jump up then.

It would be totally unreasonable to impose this tax on the already-struggling family farmers of Wisconsin. Dairy farming is essential to our economy, and our agricultural traditions are high on the list of the things that define our state. We need to provide a helping hand to our farmers instead of trying to pick their pockets.
Tom Petri
We still have an open mind. We'll negotiate further if the government is willing to drop some of these unreasonable demands.
Mark Murray
You have to bear in mind that the chip sector was the first industry into a recession and its not unreasonable to believe it would be first to come out. When it comes out of a recession it should herald a recovery for the technology sector but chip inventories are critical.
Peter Oppenheimer
We have no problem with increased border enforcement in a reasonable way, or with reasonable requirements that employers verify the work status of who they hire, but we strongly oppose the House bill, as does much of the business community, because it is simply unworkable, unreasonable and fundamentally unfair.

It was pretty exceptional to watch. Something like that will be tough to match, but he works hard and is pretty focused. The playoffs are different than an 82-game regular season schedule. We know he'll be there for us this year, because he's the biggest part of our team. But hopefully people don't expect the same thing, because that would be pretty unreasonable.
Steve Rucchin
It ties in with their long-term strategy. In a bid situation, 350 pence does not seem unreasonable.
Angelos Anastasiou

This bill is like cutting down the tree with the bald eagle's nest in it when you could have just trimmed the branches, ... It proposes unreasonable solutions to reasonable concerns.
Rick Larsen
It's unfair to continue tapping the student for unreasonable costs.
Bruce Christianson
I believe that he really feels that everybody isn't hooked yet into the whole concept. You make it affordable, at a reasonable price, so they can learn about it. It's not an unreasonable position.
Jimmy Iovine
It is quite reasonable--although unreasonable--to expect prices will escalate for a few more weeks, probably through the Memorial Day holiday.
Ragina Averella

Rick Becker
His goal is to place at state. That's not unreasonable. I think it's something that is within his grasps. If he pursues it and peaks here soon.
Randy Pfitzer
Is it unreasonable to still assume she removed her clothing? It started out as a consensual situation and ended with him taking it one step further than he should have.
David Barron
Rushing into that deal with the Giants was a big mistake. We didn't know at that point if the Jets were going to be in play here. Frankly, we should have waited until we could have both teams at the table together. Now, I don't think it would be unreasonable to give the teams more time to work things out. We need to let them work out their issues and not take any one side.
George Zoffinger
Seeing what kind of person Dave is, now I know why they have never been able to do the reunion with him because he is unreasonable, ... He's a complete nut. He is not an average bear. He's on the moon. He's unreasonable and he's shot.

Robert Adler
That's not an unreasonable number.
Tom Pierson
Whether the police or a school want to search or seize a person, it has to be done in a manner that's reasonable. There was no reason to suspect any single person in that hallway, yet every single person in there was forced, with no choice, and seized by police in a completely unreasonable manner.
Graham Boyd
Where we have unreliable supply at unreasonable cost.
Robin West
It's absolutely unreasonable to think a school district can focus on all those things at one time and still keep the buses running.

David Mosrie
The performance numbers look good to me, and the power consumption is reasonable -- as opposed to unreasonable with many other servers.

Jared Fine
The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences.
Eugene Wigner
On the other hand, landowners need to be realistic when it comes to their expectations of what resources and how long it takes to reach their objectives, whether it's a crop of trees or an aesthetic view, ... Unreasonable expectation by the landowner can also result in expensive lessons.
Eric Taylor
One of the signs is that when companies do pre-announce, they haven't been hit as hard this time around, so that suggests the market is starting to look longer term and saying these values are not that unreasonable.
Edward Keon
I think it is totally unreasonable on the basis of every pandemic we've had. Every earlier pandemic seeded in multiple foci at the same time. Quarantine simply will not work.
