Keith Marshall
It's a very important message to get out because this is a long-term trend, and it's not going to go away. The cross-your-fingers, close-your-eyes and hope-for-the-best strategy that we used for [Hurricane] Katrina isn't good enough. We need to assess the risk and figure out how to manage it.

Michael Thun
If only 20 percent or even 30 percent of seniors sign up, that is every negative for the future of the program because the people most likely to sign up are the people with high drug expenses, and you don't have insurance if you don't spread the risk among people who are healthy.

Paolo Costa

Stanley O'neal
What we found was that maturational timing -- onset of first period -- was not an important factor for adult obesity, once we accounted for the earlier overweight [as children]. So, it appears that the timing of menarche is a consequence, rather than a risk factor for adult overweight.

George Twigg

Charles Tennes

It's too bad that one has to conceive of sports as being the only arena where risks are, [for] all of life is risk exercise. That's the only way to live more freely, and more interestingly.
William Sloan Coffin
We have an idea of how we're going to use him, but we don't have an idea of where he is in terms of how much we'll use him. There's a difference. You try to bring players back role-wise without putting them at risk for injury.

Cheryl Brandon
This is a clear win for mobile e-mail users everywhere as it provides them with a viable alternative to RIM that protects them from any NTP litigation risk.

Richard Rathvon
The problem with writing about religion is that you run the risk of offending sincerely religious people, and then they come after you with machetes.

We will sum up lessons from the issue and further strengthen our internal risk control system by sticking to good corporate governance to guard the safety of banking assets and maintain the bank's health.

Terry Giles
People are interconnected and their health is too. We pay a lot of attention to other risk factors for ill health: tobacco exposure, poverty. Here's another risk factor: having an ill partner.
Dr. Nicholas Christakis
People drew a lot of assumptions about that accident. There's a lot of things have to be established before you send down a mine rescue team or you risk other lives.

Christo Erasmus
Immigrants, quite frankly, are falling into the highest-risk jobs. And they find themselves without the training and safety precautions necessary.
Ali Noorani
This is a turbo-charged moment. If we don't pick it up, there's a real risk of not succeeding here.

Julio Cesar
An incoming ninth-grader who hasn't passed algebra is certainly at risk of failing the exit exam.

Bradley Belt
This is the worst record I have ever seen for a young driver. Lives are being put at risk because of idiots like this.

Larry Larson
A lot of people are not aware that they could be at risk of heart disease until it's too late. This basically acts as a early warning system for people who can then change their lifestyles or habits down the road.
Peter Salgo
A broker-dealer cannot place the financial markets, and its customers, at risk by its own inadequacies, especially in the areas of anti-money laundering and customer accounts.
Susan Merrill

Huey Lewis
I'm not going to lie to you and say to you that we're super-safe and no one ever gets hurt and it's the safest thing I've ever seen -- because it's not. People get hurt, but we try to minimize that risk as much as we possibly can.
Brutal Bob Evans
Sarbanes-Oxley requires that public companies report these exposures on their 10Qs, so the reserves shortfall is right out there in the open.

Scott Pales
People should find out their cardiovascular risk and make decisions about preventive treatment based on that risk.
Michael Pignone

Bernie Schaeffer
We didn't buy it before because there was always a risk in investing in Chinese companies. We will look at it and reassess the company again. We're not rushing to buy now.
Teo Chon Kiat

Debby Reynolds
I don't see much risk of inflation, partly because the Fed will do whatever it needs to do to keep it low.
Sharon Lee
If you do both of those at the same time in an economy that is already contracting, you do run a serious risk of pushing the economy over the edge.
Jeffrey Young
While there is a lot of focus on children the numbers tell me that the magnitude of the excess risk is quite profound in adults.

John Goodman
The only risk we run, ... is by doing nothing.
Brian Higgins
There was selling for weeks in anticipation of something possibly happening. Just the risk of something happening made people want to lessen their exposure.
Pete Boockvar
It seems to be a law of nature, inflexible and inexorable, that those who will not risk cannot win.
John Paul Jones
The data reflect that main concern that Mr. Greenspan has voiced in his recent comments, i.e., that with labor markets this tight, there is a real risk that compensation costs will accelerate faster than the ability of productivity gains to offset those costs, thus boosting unit labor costs and thereby generating price increases.
David Orr
Even in long-term use cases, the plaintiffs are going to have to show that it was this drug and not their pre-existing risk factors and medical conditions that caused their heart attacks. That's just going to be a steep hill for these plaintiffs to climb.

Brian Urbaszewski
I don't want to run the risk of creating this ongoing financial obligation.
Debbie Phillips

Steve Kurtz

It's too dangerous. I don't want to risk anybody else's life.

Richard Eastman
The risk is that the baht depreciates because capital flows to Thailand may slow, particularly to the stock market. We're having a problem related to how elections are going to pan out.
Sailesh Jha
We believe MDC has greater risk of earnings decline due to lower margins from its short land supply and exposure to markets where affordability is stretched.
Daniel Oppenheim
At this point, we will await further information from them. We believe that the risk related to this segment of the wall is very, very low.
Dayle Stewart
I believe the discussion of options and their risk trades were carried out professionally and with due respect to all opinions. The agency accepts the risk of flying the current configuration with its eyes open.
Bryan O'connor
We bucked the recent trend of lower second-half results. We see two reasons for that: improved market conditions and improved risk efficiency.
David Sidwell
It's my understanding that if we don't meet those federal guidelines then we are at risk of losing the federal funds that were supplied to Indiana to implement this project.
Kyle Walker

Deborah Levine

Sheldon Kopp
That's where the idea came from that exercise might affect risk for breast cancer.
Brian Henderson
Voters see great promise in breakthrough research into cures of major diseases, ... If he vetoes, he is running the risk of alienating a big portion of the electorate. It makes him look out of touch.
Darrell West

Anton Boerner
Be wary of the man who urges an action in which he himself incurs no risk.
