I once asked a hermit in Italy how he could venture to live alone, in a single cottage, on the top of a mountain, a mile from any habitation? He replied, that Providence was his next-door neighbor.
Laurence Sterne

You must dare to disassociate yourself from those who would delay your journey... Leave, depart, if not physically, then mentally. Go your own way, quietly, undramatically, and venture toward trueness at last.
Vernon Howard
The objection has been that people living in the far north couldn't have gotten across the Atlantic because they didn't have boats; that they didn't venture out into the ocean ice. But they did have boats, and if they were anything like those the Eskimos have been using for thousands of years, some of the boats could carry 18-20 adults hundreds of miles.
Dennis Stanford
I have real dilemmas at times in trying to understand what I really think about the things that are in films and how people respond to them. I flip back and forth from going, "It's a slice of life. This happens in life. A film is an artistic venture. It's expressing life, so why not?"
Guy Pearce
Venture capitalists wouldn't fund us because it wasn't wireless.
Donna Dubinsky
The two towns are very much interested in doing this as a cooperative venture.
Tom Maziarz
The need for some venture of faith still remains; one must stake one's life upon something.
Henry Norris Russell
DBS is one of the most promising areas of OCD research because early studies show that it may help many within the approximately 20 percent of OCD patients for whom neither psychological nor drug therapy works. Some patients have been able to venture out to work and school for the first time with DBS.
Suzanne Haber
Entrepreneurs are risk takers, willing to roll the dice with their money or reputation on the line in support of an idea or enterprise. They willingly assume responsibility for the success or failure of a venture and are answerable for all its facets.
Victor Kiam
We're not going to see any return on our investment in this program. But it's so much more important from a strategic point of view to see what really interests people. And honestly, some of the ideas that students have come up with are better than things we've venture-funded to the tune of $2 million.
Dan Scheinman
With my new venture, Club Mom, we want to empower moms to feel their value and also build their collective power to make their lives better and easier. We want to bring them together as a community to share experiences and information.
Andrew Shue
We are providing a service that can save the federal government lots of money and help some local governments make money. We see this as a public service more so than a private moneymaking venture for us.
Dwight Luton
It's a great deal. A joint venture doesn't cost (AT&T) as much as a merger would and it gets them into homes and businesses. Michael Armstrong is trying to win the battle from a different angle.
Philip Wohl
A 47 percent increase in venture capital investment is a very strong sign we're doing things right.
Justin Wright
The joint venture and the licensing agreements bring together the strength of two industry leaders to deliver new technologies to the market more quickly. We are excited about making the results of our research investments in both genetics and traits available to more farmers, sooner.
Dean Oestreich
BRANDY, n. A cordial composed of one part thunder-and-lightning, one part remorse, two parts bloody murder, one part death-hell-and-the- grave and four parts clarified Satan. Dose, a headful all the time. Brandy is said by Dr. Johnson to be the drink of heroes. Only a hero will venture to drink it.
Ambrose Bierce
We are delighted to be associated with this new sporting venture. These are exciting times for Bahrain sport. It should be a good week of golf, with some real stars on show, and we look forward to playing our part in making it all happen.
Paul Yates
The IPE's Brent Crude futures contract is a global benchmark for pricing of the world's oil. We are delighted to enter into this co-operative venture with NCDEX, which we believe will reinforce the significance of the Brent Crude futures contract.
Richard Ward
In order to evaluate your [venture capital] potential you have to have a lot of validation from a lot of internal organizations within Microsoft saying, `This is an important thing for us strategically,' ... Our access to people at Microsoft is good, and to other people of strategic importance outside Microsoft.
Steve Petrucci
This partnership provides us with the opportunity to extend the reach of SelectionSage ™ and realize its potential for employers as well as venture into new geographic territory.
Michael Butler
It was a venture.
John Dennis
Tomorrow, at dawn, we will venture out. Of course, we will see the size of the waves that are coming in and see if it is possible to get out, which hopefully it will be. And then we will get back to the routine, which has worked very well for the first two legs.
Mark Evans
The window of opportunity for Internet startups to get in before the big guys is closed in most cases. There's a difference these days from the heady early days. The cost of entry is getting higher by the week, and the venture-capital firms are more rigorous about their funding decisions.
Kate Delhagen
They finally have bitten the bullet and decided to sell, ... They are cloaking the effort by saying they are going to maximize shareholder value by going through the motions of looking for a joint venture partner, a minority investor or possibly even spinning the business out to the public. But they are really shopping the studio.
Porter Bibb
We're something of a petri dish, and want to see what comes of this venture.
Scilla Andreen
We believe management continues to explore strategic alternatives, including potential acquisitions and joint venture opportunities, and as a result, we expect WMS to participate in the consolidation of the equipment industry over the next 12 months.
Jason Ader
These results are a great achievement for Call-a-Car, and indicate that the consumer is becoming more technologically advanced and is starting to rather venture online than physically go to various vehicle dealerships.
Brand Pretorius
There is a tremendous amount of money chasing venture investments everywhere. As long as the returns are there, the venture business is going to get a bigger piece of the pie. We think that trend is definitely going to continue.
Tracy Lefteroff
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
It's not known how the male got out there, but it's likely that the tide was lower at that time. It happens a few times a year where people venture out, and then of course the tide comes up quite quickly and we have fairly high tides right now.
Martin Ernst
Venture has reached a certain scale and maturity - so you can't expect rapid growth as witnessed in the past.
Dharmo Soejanto
The joint venture structure allows us to judiciously use our cash resources and to maximize our shareholders' value by obtaining a strong return through our management fee and minority interest, which includes a provision for enhanced returns based on exceeding certain targets.
Bill Sheriff
Tech Industry job losses in New York slowed dramatically in 2004. We are seeing positive indicators for the future. With tech exports up and venture capital soaring by 47 percent in the Empire State, we believe we will see growth in the high paying jobs that will drive the state's economy in the future.
Justin Wright
I'd venture to say there aren't too many other programs in the country where the head coach of a Division I football program checks class. And it's an eye-opener for those student-athletes, I guarantee you, when they're five minutes late for class and there's the head football coach standing at the door tapping his foot looking highly displeased.
Don Oberhelman
Technology has looked like it's quite immune to the machinations of the Fed but I think people have gotten complacent. The Internet companies are very dependent on a constant flow of venture capital.
Lisa Cullen
I see architecture not as Gropius did, as a moral venture, as truth, but as invention, in the same way that poetry or music or painting is invention.
Michael Graves
There are lots of people who think open source is a quick way to form, so they put out marginal business applications and try to get venture capital funding.
Jorg Janke
This new venture will aim to meet the growing demand in that region for accurate and insightful business journalism - both in terms of covering Indian business, as well connecting the dots between India and the rest of the business world.
Raju Narisetti
Spinning it off kind of just gives the problems to your shareholders, and a joint venture really doesn't do much for you. The optimal plan would be to sell it and use the cash to reduce debt.
Cai Von Rumohr
When we heard about the Bay Street production and how wonderful it was, we knew audiences would love this musical and that it would be perfect for our first touring venture across the country.
Michael Price
The Web-presence frenzy that drove many of the global 2000 projects during the past year has subsided, ... Venture capital firms have become much more selective in their funding practices. Large companies are now taking a more deliberate approach to implementing Web strategies.
Stephen Mcclellan
KBR remains committed to assist in the rebuilding and restoration of Iraq to help restore needed services for the Iraqi people, ... The company would comply with other bid requests should we determine the opportunity was a good business venture. KBR is proud to offer the company's global resources at this critical time.
Wendy Hall
This is another example of people not knowing the terrain well enough before they venture out. If you've never been in an area and there are no tracks, it's important to stop right away and ask yourself, 'Do I know where I'm going?' before you continue making turns.
Mike Bandelin
A very important misconception is that some think we are a venture-capital firm.
Charles Alexander
Whether they work for dot-coms, whether they own dot-coms, a lot of them work for investment companies, banks, venture capitalists, ... I can look at people's e-mail addresses and there's very few AOL or Hotmail e-mail addresses. You see Price Waterhouse addresses and Andersen consulting e-mail addresses.
Philip Kaplan
The perception was it was a college movie, but it really wasn't, ... It was a completely professional venture where we formed a limited partnership and gave out shares. It was all above board. And we're so glad it was, because 25 years later we can still keep track of it. No one's suing anyone because we all know what happened.
Bruce Campbell
I'd thought they wouldn't want to sort of venture there again, given that all is not perfect on the commodity price front.
Michael Gregory
Turmoil in the Nasdaq has had just a minor ripple effect in the venture capital market.
Tracy Lefteroff
But the only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
Arthur C. Clarke
The traditional definition of an executive is normally associated with an individual who heads a corporation or is at a high level of a particular business, whereas the Black Executives of the Mid-Hudson Valley will not exclude, say, a young entrepreneur embarking on his first business venture.
Gilbert West
What is the feeling when you're driving away from people, and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? -it's the too huge world vaulting us, and it's good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.'
Jack Kerouac
The stock market may be uncertain about the economy, but venture capitalists aren't. They're betting on the future.
Tracy Lefteroff
I would venture that we are now outside of gentlemanly territory.
Mark Landy
This is emphatically an age of discoveries; but I will venture the assertion, that none but an American slaveholder could have discovered that a man born in a country was not a citizen of it.
William Winters
I would venture to say that if you want to buy dollars, they would be cheapest here because of the volume of remittances.
Ferdinand E. Marcos
This is seen as a high-risk venture.
Alfred Chan
One project I identified last year as a potential source of new revenue through a joint venture with a private firm to construct a planned community on university property stalled, but still has potential.
George Dennison Prentice
Stones Throw produces consistently original, globally acclaimed music. We're thrilled at the opportunity to work with their artists on our next music venture.
Jason Demarco
We have appreciated David's efforts over the past two years. He has made a decision to move on to a new opportunity, and we wish him success in his new venture.
Paul Hoffman
The issue that arises with respect to this airport is whether or not this airport is a single government entity or whether the joint venture of ownership would be ignored and this would be considered five Tennessee entities that would have liability limits.
Bill Bovender
The aim is to agree on the details during the first half of the year and then in the third quarter the new company (joint venture) would start to function.
Arja Suominen
When an actress takes off her clothes onscreen but a nursing mother is told to leave, what message do we send about the roles of women? In some ways we're as committed to the old madonna-whore dichotomy as ever. And the madonna stays home, feeding the baby behind the blinds, a vestige of those days when for a lady to venture out was a flagrant act of public exposure.
Anna Quindlen
We're at an important point in our development. We don't require any additional [venture] capital to fuel the company, but if we decided to grow at a quicker clip, we could go out and raise more capital.
Jonathan Tang
Women have been taught that, for us, the earth is flat, and that if we venture out, we will fall off the edge. Some of us have ventured out nevertheless, and so far we have not fallen off. It is my faith, my feminist faith, that we will not.
Andrea Dworkin
Perhaps the best function of parenthood is to teach the young creature to love with safety, so that it may be able to venture unafraid when later emotion comes; the thwarting of the instinct to love is the root of all sorrow and not sex only but divinity itself is insulted when it is repressed. To disapprove, to condemn /the human soul shrivels under barren righteousness.
Freya Stark
Jenny is a trusted colleague and an important asset to our team. Her expertise and hands-on experience working in the venture capital industry, particularly on-the-ground in China, enables her to identify and invest in high-potential opportunities that are essential to the continuing success of Granite Global Ventures.
Jixun Foo
It's an odd arrangement of competition and cooperation, ... Because [the joint venture] is Netscape branded, they're hoping to build the Netscape brand rather than the Excite brand.
Andrea Williams
There's a stench of burnt toast coming out of all these news reports, ... It's very, very thought contagious. And if it spreads across the techs and venture capital companies in Silicon Valley, it will make Enron look like small change.
Donald Luskin
But journalists rarely venture into impoverished neighborhoods these days, except for quick-hit features.
Howard Kurtz
This partnership provides us with the opportunity to extend the reach of SelectionSage™ and realize its potential for employers as well as venture into new geographic territory. It's a logical next step for Valtera, and we're excited to take that step with Bond International.
Michael Butler
We are pleased to introduce Blue Lane and also announce the completion of our Series B funding and the leading venture capital firms that, with their industry and technology insights, have chosen to support us.
Jeff Palmer
I am leaving Javelin in a good place -- well capitalized with a strong management team and on the brink of commercialization of its first product. Over the past five years, I have taken great pride and enjoyed helping to build Javelin and intend to return to the venture capital community to help entrepreneurs create earlier-stage companies.
Douglas Hamilton
What our overriding concern is that this is a market that is shrinking and this has impact on all levels of our business. This venture is a way for us to maximize the available revenues that are in the marketplace for baseball.
Paul Dolan
Today?s (venture capital) money chases older, more-established companies with real cash flows, rather than pie in the sky projections. Silicon Valley has evolved.
Red Herring
Overall, the first quarter numbers point to a positive start for the U.S. venture market in 2006. The renewed IT activity is a sign that investors are recognizing the significant potential of new information technology innovations and are supporting them once again. But investors also remain committed to existing portfolio companies as the predominance of the capital investing shows.
Steve Harmston
You can see we're not trying to operate it as a money-making venture, ... It needs to pay for itself, but the Council did not want to try and recoup 20 years worth of expenses in one year.
Paul Barnett
Both partners are already known for their strengths and skills in marketing, and the formation of this joint venture offers us an outstanding opportunity to grow our business in the world's largest ice cream market.
Peter Brabeck
As a venture investor, the sentiment now is that we can finally begin to make money again.
Michael Greely
This move reflects the fact that Fidelity, while not directly acknowledging it, is tacitly admitting what we all know: that the fund business is maturing, while the other two areas affected by today's announcements, namely the venture capital side and retirement services, have long-term prospects for significant growth.
Jim Lowell
Technology in general and the Internet in particular are entirely responsible for the increase, ... A solid U.S. economy, a sensitive but wildly volatile stock market, and a receptive, though selective, IPO market, combined with the ever-expanding opportunities for technology, create an ideal environment for venture capitalists and entrepreneurs alike.
Paul Weaver
Japan has one of the largest concentrations of multinational companies in the world. It's an extraordinary growth opportunity for all three companies and it is essential that the global venture have a strong distributor in this key market.
C. Michael Armstrong
The venture capital business is a batting game. If you hit one out of four, you're a solid player. But in the equity buyout business, since we're putting larger chunks of money into each deal, we can't afford to swing and miss.
David Roux
Fuse and Ozzfest go together like tattoos and piercings, ... We could not be a true multi-genre music network without metal, and Ozzfest is the ultimate metal event. We're thrilled that our commitment to metal has culminated into this joint venture with Ozzy and Sharon , and look forward to bringing viewers the concerts, back stage interviews and exclusive content from the tour.
Robert Weiss
There is a very high growth of new companies, which are backed by venture capitalists [and] are starting out as software-as-a-service companies. Also, there are vendors like SAP that offered a traditional license that are moving to hosted offerings.
Buell Duncan
To go down and offer solace to victims of a natural disaster is probably a low-risk venture for a first lady.
Frank Newport
It was the first time I'd raised venture capital. I was fairly familiar with VCs from my time at Microsoft, but [in raising the money] I learned a lot about how they think about exit strategies.
Tom Evslin
I think it's a good overall environment for venture capital right now. It's a much more rational market right now.
Jessica Canning
It is evident that VCs are hungry for new opportunities to invest in the entrepreneurs of the 21st Century, as firms are quickly signing on to participate in Venture Showcase at Sand Hill.
Bill Musgrave
This is the best venture I've ever gone into, when it comes to actually getting something out of a program and seeing the kids grow and watching it's eighth year now. It's amazing and great to see.
Bruce Murray
We are disappointed that Sears has made a change in its approach at this late stage and won't be part of the beComing venture, ... We have always viewed retail as a long-term strategy for Avon. We are as committed as ever to our retail initiative.
Andrea Jung
Even if we did get a cold spell, it takes quite a few sequential days to get a good freeze, people should really use caution and be extremely careful if they venture out on the ice.
Mark Michaud
This is a unique and exciting venture for Hard Rock. In both the Hard Rock Park and Hotel we will be working with some of rock's legendary artists to create a unique entertainment venue.
Hamish Dodds
Atlanta's fast growing business market and diverse population provide the ideal location for this venture, ... The economic potential of the community continues to grow and creates the perfect climate for launching a community bank.
Betty Siegel
The legacy retailers are really waking up and going after the Net big time, so the competitive landscape has changed for the pure dot.com companies. Huge venture funds have been formed to help traditional companies create Web operations.
Steve Bengston
I think from my standpoint there was nothing stopping Ptarmigan Medical from moving forward from our side. Any time one gets into a new business venture there's going to be a due diligence period to see if that works or not.
Steve Lowry
Having a venture of this magnitude fills two obligations: One to the state to get as much usage of the stadium as possible, which is a hard task; the other is to our suite holders, who we try to get a couple of extra events for the buy they make.
Dennis Mannion
We're currently planning a private-public venture to help get people acquainted with the concept. We're just trying to get all our ideas together.
Fritz Gampe
Good venture capitalists create deals, and that's what San Diego needs. The entrepreneurial activity in Silicon Valley is the highest in the world because it has a higher percentage of venture capitalists than any other community in the world.
Stan Fleming
We are a venture-capital-funded company, so of course we need to make some money.
Bart Decrem
All Patrick employees who went to Pacific National when the joint venture was formed in 2002 were required to resign from Patrick and did not receive further options from Patrick.
Chris Corrigan
I am sure that this will be a successful venture and will continue to grow from strength to strength.
Bill Rammell
It'd be a much more expensive venture, because then you're looking at the Department of Public Aid possibly picking up the tab.
Lynda Vogt
Obviously the main focus right now is on establishing the venture in the auto sector, but eventually they'll be able to move beyond the sector. This name makes that somewhat easier than if we had 'auto' in the name.
David Barnas
Virgin is progressing on a deal to launch a mobile venture in the United States.
Will Whitehorn
I would like to be able to have an idea for a business and get the city to put up the land and several hundred thousand dollars for the venture.
Wayne King
If Russia and China back Iran on the compromise option [the joint venture], then the issue will not be pushed on to the UN Security Council without consent from Moscow and Beijing.
Vladimir Yevseyev
Our new Joint Venture will allow GM and its dealers access to consumers who are interested in an all makes/all models independently branded online experience.
Bill Lovejoy
Russia?s proposal to Iran on the creation of a joint venture for uranium enrichment on the Russian territory is on the negotiating table.
Sergei Novikov
A little research can go a long way to stopping the con artists who try to turn this tragedy into a profit-making venture. By making sure a charity checks out, those who are giving can make sure their valuable contributions reach the countless victims of this devastating natural disaster.
Charles E. Grassley
This venture has the potential to provide tremendous value to our hotels, their owners and to the operations of other industry participants, ... It is a powerful example of how e-commerce provides opportunities to improve business performance in today's fast-paced environment.
Scott Miller
We're thrilled to be selected by a venture capital firm like Spark, whose founders have a combined century of experience in building and backing leaders in media and technology. This latest round of VC financing will help fuel the next stage of our rapid growth, as we expand our development of digital media content management, syndication, advertising and mobile solutions.
Ian Blaine
Each artist goes through the next step in their career, and the soundtrack is the first joint venture Beyonce has with her own label.
Matthew Knowles
We don't believe that this is a sign that the deal is jeopardy. We still feel that we can better service the government and produce significant cost savings through the proposed joint venture.
Tom Jurkowsky
It is not based on her decision to stay in or drop out — a decision I'm not privy to, nor would I even venture a guess. She's a strong person and she makes her own choices and I've always respected her for that.
Anne Dunsmore
For myself, if I am to stake all I have and hope to be upon anything, I will venture it upon the abounding fullness of God - upon the assurance that, as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are His ways higher than our ways, and His thoughts than our thoughts.
Henry Norris Russell
I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman.
Virginia Woolf
If they're going to get a venture-capital rate of return on what has traditionally been a slow growth business, they will have to revolutionize the educational publishing market.
Stuart Rossmiller
There are certain areas where the rental market is being totally depleted. I would venture to say that a significant number of the Red Rock Station employees are going to be renters, where are they going to rent, we don't want people to live on the east side of town and work on the west side of town.
Steve Wolfson
The market has changed significantly and is really buoyant and positive now. Companies like us are generally first into and out of a recession, and we felt the time was right to re-enter the venture activity.
Patrick Pordage
I'm actually surprised how well we've done. We've made more progress in the first 100 days of this one than any other joint venture I've been involved in.
Thomas Nagel
The Vegas Venture Forum is a perfect opportunity for an affluent individual looking to provide capital for business start-ups.
Mike Ballard
At a fundamental level, political will is the most critical challenge facing those who wish to venture into space in this century. It is even more significant than the technological issues that also present serious challenges to returning to the Moon.
Roger Launius
Venture capitalists are like lemmings jumping on the software bandwagon.
Adam Osborne
We are turning away money at this point. We will raise about $25 billion this year. In talking with many venture capital firms, I think we could have raised $100 billion if we wanted that money.
Mark Heesen
We've raised a lot of money, and learned how different it is raising money for a profit venture versus a non-profit one.
Andrew Shue
The congressman is from the Capital region and has been known on occasion to venture outside of his congressional district. They need a better strategy to see success in November than this.
Melissa Carlson
Interested in a joint venture in the securities area when an opportunity comes up.
William Rhodes
The joint venture in China is doing very well .... The problem is, the rest of the business is continuing to do worse than I was expecting.
Manuel Recarey
There is a greater demand for these services. By providing a regional service, we can keep our costs down because we're doing a joint venture. Our agreement also has provisions for additional counties to join. As we go into the future, we think regionalization of these services is what's going to happen.
Ken Day
There is always going to be demand for electricity and the only problem [for Orion] is attracting consumers. This is not a high-risk type of venture like a software company.
Steve Tuen
There might well be further pressure downwards in the next couple of months with pressure on earnings estimates in the UK. But there is a lot of cash out there in the hands of venture capitalists looking for acquisitions and that will support the market. Look at the Hilton talks announced today, and the likes of E.ON looking at ScottishPower.
Stephen Adams
The venture with Biztravel.com extends our existing strength as the leading resource for business news and information.
Craig Forman
Mrs Giri had told me about this interesting project. And she'd asked me to help her find the right people to work out the venture. So I simply carried out the initial introductions. I'm glad this venture is finally on its way to being performed.
Manisha Koirala
The need for global PR is increasing as more U.S. companies of all sizes venture into overseas markets. Not surprisingly, the survey data shows there's a gap between the need and execution of international programs, and it's tied to poor communication between the various global PR hubs.
Todd Defren
Our venture with The Washington Post will add a new dimension to radio in Washington. It will be smart, savvy, provocative and thoughtful. News hungry Washington is the best town for this new format.
Bruce Reese
If Peugeot or Renault came back and sought a joint venture, (Ford would) do it.
Krish Bhaskar
You also don't have a huge concentration of venture capital funds here in Arizona.
Kevin Mcholland
I think it's very gratifying that venture capital is starting to discover the deep sources of intellectual capital in New Mexico.
Brian Birk
This framework will allow the joint venture between Falconbridge and SMSP to be formalized and the next phase of the project to commence. The project is now in a position where the requirements to allow the project to proceed are now completed or will be completed by the end of the year.
Aaron Regent
The key here for any innovation is that there has to be a level of consistency -- in terms of academics, in terms of incentives for venture capital, and in terms of new category development. Regardless of the administration, when you see areas of the country like Silicon Valley going through roller-coaster cycles, that's what's harmful.
Robin Abrams
If you're going to be successful in any venture, no matter what it is, you better hire the best people possible. Whatever it takes to hire them, you're either going to be a player or not. And we intend to be players in it.
Pete Boone
If the pathetic level of funding in the proposed budget continues, restoration of the dead zone in the Sound will continue for a quarter century and raw sewage will flow into the Connecticut River and Sound for at least another hundred years. This is totally unacceptable to Save the Sound, and I venture to say, every member of the Coalition.
Curt Johnson
Today most open-source-related companies, whether they seek venture capital or not, need to define their market and objectives in the context of technical maturity, commercial support and partnerships with system vendors and independent software vendors, licensing, and the vibrancy of their respective open-source communities.
Stacey Quandt
Over the past 10 years, the majority of value creation in the venture community has been in consumer Internet.
Bill Gurley
The joint venture is strong; we are not likely to be divorced.
Miles White
It's significant as a milestone. . . . But remember, [at] each thousand points, a venture is worth less of a return.
James Pizzo
I started going by myself; I was a single girl, and all my friends were married. It was a great way to meet new single friends. Most of my friends are now from Venture Outdoors.
Linda Powell
The joint venture puts us in a clear cost-leadership position in a mature market.
Gerard Kleisterlee
We are delighted to be associated with this new sporting venture.
Paul Yates
If you're doing retirement planning you realize it's a long-term venture. If you have some extra money, now is the time to buy something for 20 years form now.
Don Blandin
The event was a who's who of biotech, ... The mayor's focus is on venture capital and the need to bring venture capital to the fore for biotechnology.
Paul O'connor
The partnership with ODC, Odessa Industrial Development Corporation, the Chamber of Commerce and the City of Odessa has made Quail Run Energy possible here in Odessa. We all look forward to this new venture together.
Neil Mcdonald
We are very pleased to bring a bowl game to the great college sports fans of New Mexico and provide national exposure to the participating conferences, the state of New Mexico and the University of New Mexico. Albuquerque is a fast growing travel destination and a strong college football market -- a terrific foundation for this exciting new venture.
Pete Derzis
The establishment of this joint venture breaks new ground for the mining industry.
Leigh Clifford
We're really interested in the high-tech start-ups; companies literally started in garages, basements, university labs and spin-offs from bigger businesses. They are the ones that need cash desperately and can't go to the venture capitalists or the banks unless they want $5 million, or have a prototype ready or a fully developed process.
John Tesoriero
You don't have to turn over management decisions to your children, even if you feel it's right to give them the company's stock. You could sell the business, transform the business, do a joint venture, or sell it to an employee or outsider.
Andrew Sherman
I quit being afraid when my first venture failed and the sky didn't fall down.
Allen Neuharth
The joint venture appears relaxed, it is there to do business, not be political.
John Doran
[After taking a critical hit in his first non-solo musical venture on Broadway with the short-lived Laughing Room Only, Mason noted the return to his roots.] I am excited about getting back to what I do best and what my audience likes best, ... I am writing new jokes every day and soon Ill be telling them every night. Just me... one Jew talking and that's it.
Jackie Mason
It's a disparate mix--there are so many different styles of joint venture; there's huge pressure on the U.S. It's a real tricky job. It's a noble task to try and gather all those places under one roof, but Paul Donovan has got a lot of sleepless nights ahead of him.
Robin Hearn
Looking long term and assuming the LVMH joint venture comes to fruition and actually starts to generate value, then I would perhaps have put a long term valuation on De Beers of $60 a share.
Charles Kernot
The venture capital investment into seed and start-up companies, the percentage of the overall investment number has dropped from 26 percent from last year to two percent this year.
Scott Thoreau
One of the things we liked about Venture Outdoors was the way they really seemed to reach out to the community. That is one of the chief jobs of the host organization, and they do it well.
Seana Strain
If there's the possibility of developing these resources through a joint venture, then we can discuss that also.
Shen Wenquan
I have been very surprised as to how many people have been supportive of our venture. Students have been very nice about it all, even if they don't necessarily want a mascot. Some have been apathetic to our cause, but most have been very supportive and very inquisitive.
Kyle White
Venture capitalists are taking a longer view of that industry sector; they're willing to wait longer for an exit because they're getting in early. They have to be both willing to take risks and willing to be patient.
Kirk Walden
Adelbert deserves this much. This venture is by the people of St Philip but it is also on behalf of the people of Barbados.
Trevor Alleyne
Although not immediately, the joint venture will help us to become a meaningful player in the market, one of the top three. We also expect the Chinese government to be auctioning 3G contracts in the next 12 months, which is bound to increase the demand for billing services.
Yair Sakov
What is going on today is a baby step to what might be coming, and that's going to be the fun of this venture, (to) see what kind of products we can develop.
Jim Robbins
We're in talks with about three to four Chinese candidates for a joint venture brokerage, and we should be able to set it up sometime this year.
Peter Wong
Now the Arctic Snow Goose Venture has reconstituted a working group, asked them to give a progress reports and analyze all the new data that has been collected because there are a lot of ongoing research. We'll look at all the new stuff that is out there, check the population models and make whatever improvement to the information and come back with more recommendations of where we go from here.
Bruce Batt
This would be a new venture for us. Many of the most prominent nonprofit theaters have a history of developing work that have moved to commercial runs, Broadway being the most prominent.
Robert Hupp
The biggest thing we can offer in the new band is broadband [data] speeds. You can't even get close to that today. Since the FCC has decided to move us out, we made the decision that it made a lot of sense to pursue a broadband venture.
Bill Pallone
South Florida is a terrifically rich pool that venture capitalists have not yet found the best formula for monetizing. I think Scripps will be a real focal point that will attract talent and act as a huge catalyst.
Betsy Atkins
The Russian-Iranian basic agreement to establish a joint venture on uranium enrichment on Russian territory is a positive but not final step in the solution to Iran's nuclear program. This agreement is just part of the solution to the problem, which Russia is trying to find. Russia is moving in the right direction.
Konstantin Kosachev
I would venture to say that it was about the political situation.
Ricardo Diaz
The bid is not generous and the battle between shareholders, management and the (venture capital firms) will continue.
Gert Potvlieghe
We weren't very interested [in venture capitalists]. If we were going to have a business we were going to have one that was consistent with our values.
Jerry Greenfield
We are extremely excited and optimistic about our venture with the Coffee Beanery and are exploring additional product ventures and business growth opportunities as we continue to work to increase revenue and profits.
Larry Twombly
A venture capitalist would rather work with three large institutional investors who give him $50 million rather than 10 individuals who give him $5 million each.
Mark Heesen
I would venture to warn against too great intimacy with artists as it is very seductive and a little dangerous.
Queen Victoria
Warner/Chappell is known for some of the greatest & most timeless music in the world which inspires us to create the most innovative music-driven fashion. They instantly recognized the vision of our company and we're thrilled to work with them on this unprecedented venture.
Hanna Rochelle Schmieder
David is uniquely qualified to head our new business, ... He has experience in launching successful start-ups, and in running multi-billion dollar businesses, just what we need to head a global venture that, on day one, will be a $10 billion company.
C. Michael Armstrong
Belief in oneself is one of the most important bricks in building any successful venture.
