Russell Baker
Progress might have been all right once, but it has gone on too long.
Ogden Nash
Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.
Sir Winston Churchill
Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.
George Bernard Shaw
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

Lauren Mecham
I don't see there has been any progress as far as incubating new businesses.
Bill Forsyth
Progress Energy has long been recognized as a leader in the areas of corporate governance, transparency, board independence and accountability. We believe these proposals are consistent with those same high standards.

I have some very good athletes on the team. I'd like to see the guys go five hundred in the conference. That would be a great step for them. If they could go five hundred and then bring all those guys back, that would be a good step for us. We can look at that as a year of progress.

Tanya Vanasse
It is not strange ... to mistake change for progress.
Millard Fillmore
We're making excellent progress. It was a very informative meeting and it was good for us to be able to hear from residents that live in both the north and south ends of the city. It was very interesting to hear what they had to say.
David Scurto
UPS' performance in 2005 was exceptional, including a well-executed peak season. All of our people pulled together to achieve the growth and financial goals we set for ourselves. Our momentum accelerated during each quarter of 2005 and we look forward to more progress in 2006.

Margarita Carrillo
'Growth' and 'progress' are among the key words in our national vocabulary. But modern man now carries Strontium 90 in his bones ... DDT in his fat, asbestos in his lungs. A little more of this 'progress' and 'growth,' and this man will be dead.
Morris K. Udall
We've made progress. We're taking it step by step.

Nick Bennenbroek
I don't want to read that any more. [Getting past .500] is important to me, but I don't want to overstate its importance. Whether we finish 82-80 or 80-82, there were gains this year. I think there has been a lot of progress and our fans should be feeling good about where we're going for 2006.
Rick Schlesinger
They are all going to reopen as something, but what they are going to be is still a work in progress.

I'm pretty delighted with what's going on, but I'm also still very concerned. He's a long way from being healthy. When they move him up to the surgical floor, I'll be feeling a lot better.
Terry Greene
We made so much progress over the year, going from No. 26 in the preseason all the way to the final eight. But we should have had it. None of that means anything unless we're up there with the final four.
Mike Burke
We are pleased with our continued progress in meeting strategic goals and continue to see good customer flows across many business lines, ... It is clear, however, that the increasingly weak economic environment is making it difficult for our efforts to show up on the bottom line.

Red Schoendienst
But no concrete progress has been made in the case.
Ajay Kumar
We've seen a lot of progress.

Ron Slaymaker
The mid-cap area of the market has been pretty strong so I think you might see a change of emphasis away from mid-cap to large-cap in 2006. I think the market should make progress somewhere in the 5-10 percent range.
David Cumming
Progress was definitely made. There are things happening right now bringing about a this (renewed) awareness, but it's going to take much, much more.
Nettie Coad
The question of intergenerational progress is, 'Are you doing better than your parents? Often when immigrants come, one of the reasons is so that their children will have better lives, and having a better life in California and the U.S. is often associated with more education.
Deborah Reed
I know how he feels now, and he knows how I feel. We know we're both doing pretty well. It's one of those things that we both hope we don't have setbacks and can keep going forward and make progress.

Change is scientific, progress is ethical; change is indubitable, whereas progress is a matter of controversy.
Bertrand Russell
I think they've made more progress on product coverage than anything else.
Cass Johnson
We're off to a good start with first quarter results and very good progress on integration activity.

Henrik Larsson
The height of progress, when people's propensity to strive for what is dispensable begins to interfere with what is indispensable, is called luxury.
Immanuel Kant

Kathy Purdy
We thought we needed a publication base for works in progress that deserved some light at this point, or for works that didn't fit other publication categories.
Bruce Jackson

Sean Maloney

Tom Stoppard
Despite the sea of bad news lately in sector-wide demand, we see key progress at Oracle with its long-troubled 11i applications suite.
Bob Austrian
We are gathering important evidence and following a number of significant lines of inquiry. I am pleased with progress and remain confident that we will catch those responsible.

Robert Arballo
I'm regretful right now that there does not appear to be any progress made toward that goal. When does that conversation begin?
Wayne Gray
All I would say is the talks are constructive and progress has been made. But I'm not going to speculate on how close an agreement is. In my experience in talks like these, close and near are awfully subjective terms.
Paul Krell
They're showing progress. They promised us they would cut costs.
Stephen Kamman
You have to present documentation of how you meet the core areas, ... It then goes through a committee, which evaluates progress of who did best in each overall area.
James Irwin
It hurt [Saturday] enough that I couldn't play anymore. Before the Rangers game I didn't actually feel it at all. I knew it was there but I felt good. I thought I was making progress with the groin, but unfortunately I wasn't. The thing is with the groin, you have to be 95 or 100 percent to play, that's just the way it is.
Petr Nedved
Movement isn't progress.

Jim Zemlin
We're making good progress on finalizing the design.

Norbert Walter
Knowing a person's HIV subtype is important for the management of the infection because the disease can progress more rapidly in those infected with subtype D … than in those with other subtypes.
Oliver Laeyendecker
The implication of not knowing exactly how many species there are is that we can't tell if we are actually making progress on the 2010 target.
Jeff Mcneely
The news here for us is the progress, the trend line, the strong upward tilt of the numbers.
Michael Casserly
I think the most important message there is those kind of partnerships work. If this community and this broader community of the central Basin feels that that is what it wants to do to help progress, then that's what will happen. But it will be up to the group.
Karen Bonaudi
There's been a lot of progress between me and Mike. When I came in last year, he didn't know how fast I was and I didn't know how far he could throw it.
Roddy White
Simon is continuing to make progress in his recovery from injury and we will give him as much time as he needs in order to prove his fitness.

Hanna Skandera
The progress is such that we can have a provisional separation.
Robert Schulz
Progress was slow at first, but the evidence is mounting that restoration is working.
Michael Hendricks
We clearly still have some work to do and fair gaps to compensate. We see some progress in 2006, but this will be multiyear progress.
Brady Dougan
My impression is that progress, if there will be progress, will need time. But we must not consider words which if interpreted literally might induce pessimism as barring future developments.
Antonio Martino
They have made remarkable progress.
Shinji Tanimura
Every clique is a refuge for incompetence. It fosters corruption and disloyalty, it begets cowardice, and consequently is a burden upon and a drawback to the progress of the country. Its instincts and actions are those of the pack.
Madame Chiang Kai shek
Talks are constructive, and progress is being made.
Paul Krell
Coach has given me confidence to get out there and play. It's just been a matter of time before I've been able to turn it on and get comfortable out there on the court. I think I've showed a lot of progress to this point.
Rashad Mccants
By the end of the year, I hope the kids will think some of the ideas I had were good and that they are happy with the progress they've made. We're going to try and compete as well as we can. By the time the sectional comes around, we'll see what we can do.
Ian Battles
Today's settlement is positive proof of the continued progress we are achieving in the grain industry, through the co-operative enforcement efforts of federal, state and local agencies.
Kelly Johnson
I think we're making some progress but tonight we ran out of steam in the third period.
Scott Sutton
I think in addition to the fact that there's no progress to report, I think the MTA is very concerned that we are down to the wire. Obviously the MTA does not have any deadline on these talks. We have said we will continue to negotiate for as long as it's fruitful.
Gary Dellaverson
We've made progress, but obviously the work is not done.
Mark Siegel
The mean level of lead in children in the late 1970s was 15, something that would trigger an intervention today. By 2003, it was down to 1.6. We still have a ways to go, but we continue to make great progress.
Dan Symonik
The progress Mike Rogers bill is making in Congress is the closest we've ever been to letting states have a voice on foreign trash flow.
David Palsrok
Despite plenty of progress, tissue engineering has not achieved tremendous clinical success or commercial success.
David Williams
We know we have to abide by the law, but this is still a tough thing to do. I know it's progress, but it's hard for a small community like ours.
Brandon Hamilton
While it's true that power is being restored and schools are being painted and progress is being made.
Kathleen Carroll
There's been significant progress, but that progress is not quite enough.
Masahiro Kawai
We need to scale up what exists in Africa, in various parts of Asia. There has been remarkable progress in China and that's a reflection of the booming economy there, there's been less of that progress elsewhere.
Shashi Tharoor
We are optimistic about 2006 and believe the financial markets can make moderate progress.
George Roche
My phone has been red-hot and we are making some progress.
Ray Wilkins
We can never be totally 100 percent prepared. But we're making extraordinary progress over the past year.
Anthony S. Fauci

Jonathan Epstein
He's up and walking around a little bit. He's doing so much better. We are very happy with the progress and grateful for the support.
Heidi Jasso
I am satisfied with the progress of most land-based operations. Some were obviously expected to take a long time to produce profits.

My colleagues at ICC are pleasantly surprised at the progress. They were here in December and the difference in the quality of the workmanship since then has been extraordinary, especially with the weather conditions Guyana has had to face.
Don Lockerbie
The zoning ordinance is always a work in progress and is amended from time to time and will be amended in the future. After so many years of amendments you have a document that is inconsistent. At some places it contradicts itself.
Steve Owen
It was an interesting experience. We made a lot of progress last year and ended up winning states.
Jessica Haight
We made some progress and agreed to arrive at a conclusion quickly. We could set a direction to our discussion and share a common ground.
Fukushiro Nukaga
What I focus on is not the ribbons and the trophies but the progress the girls make as athletes and people, developing a respect for the sport and for the other athletes. To me, that's what coaching is all about.
Sarah Robinson
Despite our best efforts we were not able to reach a broader agreement. The US remains optimistic that we can continue to make progress on the remaining issues.
David Spooner
The good news is that there's been a lot of compliance with requirements in terms of trial registration. It's good progress and we're encouraged by that, but there's a long way to go.
Dr. Jeffrey Drazen
We have not advanced the process much further. We are desperately anxious to avert a catastrophe for the airline. We have made some progress but not sufficient to regard a settlement as imminent.
Bill Morris
We continue to make considerable progress in our anti-terrorism and force protection program, ... Our people are better protected today than in the past.
Henry Shelton
Thanks to the cost reductions we have achieved and the competitiveness of our products, we're making steady progress.

Curt Johansen
We need to see how things progress before we make those sort of predictions or scenarios.
Ross Brawn
Every little bit of progress from Cameron is exciting news. He's getting some strength back now, regaining some motor skills and he's pushing himself. Cameron is a determined kid.
