War is not its own end, except in some catastrophic slide into absolute damnation. It's peace that's wanted. Some better peace than the one you started with.
Lois McMaster Bujold

Any community's arm of force - military, police, security - needs people in it who can do necessary evil, and yet not be made evil by it. To do only the necessary and no more. To constantly question the assumptions, to stop the slide into atrocity.
Lois McMaster Bujold
All grades get about 10 minutes where they can go outside for a supervised snack and play on the monkey bars or slide as long as there's no rough-housing.
Willie Brown
They're worried that their population bubble is going to pass pretty soon and they're going to start on a downhill slide. In some of the rural areas, they're already seeing young people leaving for the cities.
Tim Dufault
It's a big credibility issue for the drug war, more than anything, because there is a big contingent of people in Congress and the (Bush) administration who have taken a hard line against drug trafficking. It's very odd and hurts their credibility if these same elements in Congress and the administration remain silent on this and just let it slide.
Adam Isacson
In the technology world, we like to have a little more to go on aside a PowerPoint slide and a vision.
Warren Holtsberg
I prefer it that way. I just go out and do my job, and if I slide under the radar, that's OK with me. It's more valuable to me to know my teammates know I am out there doing my best job.
Dan Wheeler
He loves going down the super slide over and over.
David Lyons
Iowa has not been immune to the quail decline that has occurred across the entire bobwhite range, but we are aggressively working to turn that slide around. Mid-contract management of CRP lands, enrollment of CP-33 acres, conversion of brome grasses to native plants and additional focus on brushy edge cover will all help.
Todd Bogenschutz
If we fail in in our levy attempt, we will lose our progress. We will likely slide into a near total collapse of this school system.
Paul Allison
The number of cars trying to get through that area was pretty significant this weekend. We've got moderate rain, and if we get another slide, we will be back to square one.
Gary Leaming
We're in a bit of a slide right now, but there's plenty of time to recover. We hit a few bumps in the road, but we know it's a long season -- 35 games.
Brian Hurry
You don't know a ladder has splinters until you slide down it.
Bum Phillips
It was our worst nightmare realized. They hadn't played well for two games and we had played well for two games. You knew the pendulum could slide in the other direction, and it slid a long ways in the other direction.
Gail Hartigan
He was fussy and very childlike. He'd be a handful, ... He'd have you so angry, but then he'd come up and hug you. He was just aggravated and somewhat fearful about the key. But we knew if we made him stretch, he'd have to invent something for the performance, slide off into a little falsetto, and it just worked.
Lamont Dozier
If I was more complacent and I let things slide, my life would be easier, but you all wouldn't be as entertained. My misery is your pleasure.
Kanye West
We have to get the point across that we are still open for business. Devil's Slide affects locals more than visitors. (Highway) 92 is still open, and you can access Half Moon Bay regularly. Unless you're coming to Half Moon Bay during the commute, there should be no problem.
Charise Mchugh
A lot of times, if you want to add capacity [to a tape library], you have to put together a new frame. The way this is designed, you can slide new boxes in and don't have to do any cabling.
Dianne Mcadam
I think a lot of people are understanding [the move] as the internet as we know it is going to disappear and AOL is the beginning of a slide into that happening.
Gilles Frydman
You always say "I'll quit when I start to slide," and then one morning you wake up and realize you've done slid.
Sugar Ray Robinson
If it comes in too weak, you get worries about the economy. If you get a blowout number, everyone will get obsessed about interest rates again, the bond market will go into a tizzy, and stocks will slide.
Donald Selkin
This is just a typical Tahoe storm. Our crews are always ready for avalanche control and we would much rather have a man-made slide bury the road then a natural slide.
Scott Magruder
We kind of let it slide there in the second quarter. They were able to get a short lead but we were able to end the half with the lead.
Mike Osborne
Clearly they had let it slide.
Nate Bailey
This is something I've been talking about for a long time. We've known it almost intuitively. It's been part of my regular slide show. So it's gratifying to see the scientific data supporting it.
Howard Garrett
When we walk out of the meeting, and it's all drawn up on the piece of paper, you don't run routes as a stick man. You run routes with a feel. You know when to sit. You know when to slide. You know when to change directions. That stuff.
Jim Fassel
It was bang-bang on both of them. (On the first one) we brought Jason from first, that's a long trot but we were confident he would get there. He made the slide and avoided the tag. That's the kind of game this was, on both sides.
Keith Lucky
Their goalie was really good. And once the momentum swung, it was a nice downhill slide for them, like the Winter Carnival [in Quebec City].
Kevin Dineen
We have to find out exactly what's going on with the slide. Geologists say it's still moving slowly.
John Cunliffe
A spot was available here on the right wing, so I'm hoping I can slide in and contribute as best I can. The fact that I'm playing in a Canadian market, the beauty of Vancouver with its incredible weather and things to do, that's just icing on the cake.
Anson Carter
We're not exactly sure why, but one possibility is although people are discouraged by the performance in the market recently, there may not be a lot of fear. It may be, despite the slide, that there's still a large degree of optimism in the market.
Charles Tennes
It's a dangerous offense. They force a defense to be assignment oriented. You can't slide off and help because then you will get hurt.
Rocky Hager
Fire Station 12 is a beautiful reminder of the heritage that is the Knoxville Fire Department's, ... There aren't many fire stations left with poles to slide, and it is exhilarating, while at the same time, (it) makes one appreciative of all those who have served in this station and the Knoxville Fire Department.
Carlos Perez
We have skating all night long, with great music. Mixed in with the skating, we have games, such as red light-green light, four corners and the cha-cha slide. We also do other activities like kickball, shoot-the-puck and relay races.
Karen Fullmer
I didn't see the stop sign at all, and then I didn't see that (Barajas) was blocking the plate until it was too late. If I slide, maybe it's a one-run game.
Raul Ibanez
I didn't slide straight into the bag, and he called me out. I wasn't trying to take anybody out.
Neil Giesler
We were a championship team before the slide, but the management was committed to rebuilding the team.
Yeng Guiao
I thought we didn't pay enough attention to box-outs, and we let (Lovell) slide in and rebound the ball.
Dwight Littlefield
Oh, how precious is time, and how it pains me to see it slide away, while I do so little to any good purpose.
David Brainerd
We looked great early but let things slide as we began to make unforced errors and lost our focus in game 3 while Winfield played well. I liked the fact we were able to come back and get it done despite not playing great volleyball.
Dwight Gingerich
But we weren't a phenomenon like the Beatles or Elvis Presley or the Rolling Stones: We were only as good as our last hit. We lived on our music and couldn't slide on anything -- and this show is that story.
Bob Gaudio
You become afraid lest too much perspiration will wet your hands too much, make them slide on the black keys, which are too narrow; you are playing at about a hundred miles a minute. But somehow they don't. As long as they don't you know you're all right. You're going good, well-oiled like an engine. Not too much sweat, not too little.
George Antheil
They wanted us to stop so they could do the cha-cha slide or something.
Will Anderson
If they want to slide out of the house, you know, I'm going to go get my haircut and watch the big game.
Denise Martin
You always want to bounce back. We've been on a two-game slide but the kids stepped up tonight.
Jared Cardillo
My district office continues to stay in touch with county and city officials so that they know full well my urgency in dealing with the situation. My experience with Devil's Slide goes way back now.
Anna Eshoo
We slide them on special tarpaulins.
Peter Braun
If you put your glass down without paying attention, it could fall over. Or - you know when you get a martini and you slide it toward you to take that first sip? You couldn't. It would hit the ledge.
Rainlove Lampariello
The most important thing is to re-establish ourselves as a top team. We want to make sure we reverse that slide.
Sam Michael
I get a little bit defensive and hurt inside, but we'll let you slide with that one.
Mike Gonzalez
We've had quite a few vehicles slide off the highway.
Bruce Armstrong
Lap-band does make it easier to cheat. Liquid foods slide right through the band, so it doesn't stop you from eating things like ice cream.
Robert Richard
[Sgt. Joseph Brown, a member of Saylor's platoon, said he was like their official photographer.] He must have a thousand pictures of us on his laptop, ... He would create these little slide shows and put music to them.
Joseph Brown
We've got to win some individual battles [on defense]. We can't slide to a hundred different guys. We have to limit their transition and make them earn every goal.
Dave Cottle
Responding with a high priority to the protection of the community and the French population overall against the slide to this political, violent form of radical Islam.
Dalil Boubakeur
The combination of a slide in equities and further run up of oil is certainly producing a supportive backdrop for our market. It's absolutely a flight to quality pushing the market.
Jason Evans
I think we can let that one slide.
Shigeru Miyamoto
He ran the way most back were taught to run - low, bent over. He wasn't very elusive, but he was very powerful. He'd get the 4, 5 yards then when people ganged up and hit him, a lot of them would slide off, couldn't get a good wrap on him and he'd get another 4 or 5 yards.
Gayle Kingery
We're not real strong with the ball so that's going to bother us. We just do some foolish things with the basketball and a good defensive team is going to slide in and help and then we're stuck with the ball.
Mark Mccray
The car felt really good on new tires, ... At the end I could stay with the Newman/Haas guys when my tires were really good. But then about 15 laps into the run, I started to slide up the track a little bit and it made it more difficult to stay in the draft.
Jimmy Vasser
The McDonald's slide is always a real hit with the eighth-graders.
Sandi Smith
Since there is no slide in the projector, it's constantly trying to focus on something that isn't there. So, it results in this pulsing light. It's almost like breathing. Almost like it is alive.
Matt Distel
The plane started to slide off and we fell into a small ravine.
Carlos Flores
I know [Rivera's] leg kick is a 1.4 or a 1.5 [seconds]. And when [he uses a slide step], it's a 1.0. I don't care how fast you are, [if the pitcher gets the ball to home in] 1.1, 1.0, you just shut it down because you are going to get thrown out no matter how big your lead is.
Joey Gathright
It was refiners in the Midwest and on the East Coast that stepped up, while crude runs on the Gulf Coast continued to slide, losing another 52,000 barrels daily to stand 1.565 million barrels lower than before the storm.
David Knapp
We haven't seen a slide since the first class and I don't intend to again.
Susan Kuretsky
They stood motionless and mute while the stock?s slide devastated the retirement savings of thousands.
Steve Berman
You often see that in inner-city schools where there's so much pressure on those educators to meet federal [adequate yearly progress] requirements ... it's about getting the lowest proficient kids to a proficient level, and they let their high-achieving kids slide back. I would salute Seattle.
William Sanders
Against the Czechs, it was Tomas Vokoun in net, I came in at pretty good speed and almost put the brakes on at the hash marks, ... I'm a right-hand shot and came in with the puck on my forehand, and made a hard move to my left, and he slid across, and once I went across hard I came back to my forehand and had pretty much an open net to slide it in.
Andy Roach
He has to be careful doing that backing up, ... He got caught against Green Bay. If you leave the pocket too early and take off and run that's not necessarily a bad thing because he's got good running ability. He just has to be smart about it. Get out of bounds or slide.
Tom Clements
When Nolan gets on the mandolin and Eric gets on the slide guitar, the sound changes. We have a lot of neat textures.
Laurence Knight
Somebody shimmies up underneath there, takes a pair of bolt cutters, cuts the cable, tire falls to the ground, they slide it off and they're off with it.
Tom Walters
The gold strength, as much as anything else, is technical in nature. The downward slide in the dollar from the early highs Friday morning, and the upward push in crude oil, can probably be cited for some of the strength in here.
Dan Vaught
When I played, teams didn't have as many (pitchers) who slide stepped (to home plate) as they do today.
Tim Raines
It was a slider that did not slide. It stayed right there on the inner half. A nice pitch to hit.
Joe Borowski
We can step up and get better or we can continue to slide. At times we have showed a lot of promise and other times we seemed confused. I thought we were very physical with Oak Grove and then it seemed like we lost that with Pleasant Hill. Obviously we want to get back that intensity level we had with Oak Grove.
Jeff Wallace
I haven't had the opportunity to slide, but that's not going to be a problem. I can pretty much do what everyone else is doing.
Jason Kubel
Markets don't make a top and then slide, topping is a process. Typically markets make an initial top, back off, try to surpass it, and can't do it.
Barry Ritholtz
I think most people would think Brophy and Mountain View have the best chances of winning it. Especially after this tournament. We had an opportunity, and we weren't going to let it slide.
Brian Hanna
Nynex has had an ongoing volunteer retirement program and some folks may slide over to those positions as people accept the buyouts.
Jay Grossman
This is the only piece in the show that doesn't have a slide in it. In some ways, it's the most conceptual piece in the exhibition.
Matt Distel
World growth is increasing, although it is still quite weak. But together with the sharp slide of the euro and the low interest rates, this will have a positive impact on exports and production in Germany.
Alexander Mollerus
If you want to compare them, talk about the downhill slide of one great brand and the reinvention of another.
Robin Lewis
As calves get heavier, there will likely be a price slide. That last 50 pounds you put on the calf, normally, is not as valuable as the first 500 pounds. If you add 40 to 50 pounds with creep feeding, what you pay for feed and what you'll receive for the heavier calf may not always favor creep feeding.
Daryl Strohbehn
I know him. I always keep the guy in my mind. ... He had plenty of room to slide, but he didn't. It's OK with me.
Yadier Molina
For the children who are struggling academically, if we can keep them in school most of the summer, or keep them there and keep them involved, they tend not to regress or slide back during the summer.
Karen Halverson
That doesn't fool a dog. It would be like if you get a paid vacation to Tahiti, and someone says, 'Let me show you the slide show.' It doesn't substitute for the real thing.
Peter Borchelt
A four-game slide can really hurt us because now every game left is that much more important. We are going to really have to focus now because we can't afford to give any more games away.
Travis Jensen
The slide in stocks is a positive for bonds. Further stocks declines will damp individuals' sentiment and could affect growth.
Yoshihiro Gake
No work can be done until the slide stabilizes, and we don't know when that will occur.
Mark Dinger
Once we've had a certain amount of rain, as we've had this winter, things are just more prone to slide.
Gary Griggs
Our momentum slipped away when we had some defensive mistakes and gave them some easy goals early on. That's been our problem of late. We need to make them earn their goals. We couldn't slide on defense and that's how they scored.
Haswell Franklin
Whittaker drives so well to the bucket, and then he can pull up and hit that jump shot. He finds a way to slash and slide in there and takes it up strong.
Jeff Jennewein
It's a real hazard, because it curves a lot and because of the speed it makes it a real big hazard because they slide and fish-tail and everything.
Jose Sanchez
We do this all the time. We pay them for their time. Sometimes they do conference calls. Sometimes they prepare slide shows.
Jami Rubin
We know a number of businesses are hurting on both sides of the slide and in 1998 there were a number of businesses involved in this. I think the longer this goes on the more likely businesses will take advantage of something like this.
Bill O'callahan
Just seemed to slide.
John Hansen
It's a great advantage (at home), they had to travel a long ways. And another thing that's advantageous is they've kind of been on a down slide.
Jim Wiscombe
Let the world slide, let the world go; A fig for care, and a fig for woe! If I can't pay, why I can owe, And death makes equal the high and low.
John Heywood
This is a momentous case. The UK is at an important crossroads. It can reaffirm its stand against torture, which is absolutely banned, or slide towards illegality by its tacit acceptance that torture is sometimes OK.
Kate Allen
We do have a front that's trying to slide into the state and it?s made it across north Georgia.
Karen Minton
No fear. No distractions. The ability to let that which does not matter truly slide.
Chuck Palahniuk
Typically, students slide into debt through the extension (by credit card companies) of unaffordable credit lines.
Robert Manning
She's worked her way into one of our top, if not our top, defender on the perimeter. Like I say, the quickness and the ability -- you watch her do the slide, and she's down lower than most, if not all of the people we have. We're going to miss her when she's gone because she's just such a -- the girl always has a smile on her face, the girl always is enthusiastic and leads by example.
Jack Childress
If this represents the start of an extended [dollar] slide, it may erode the attractiveness of dollar investments to foreigners and remove an important component of the demand for U.S. financial assets.
John Hancock
I don't want to read what is going to slide down easily; there has to be some crunch, a certain amount of resilience.
John Ashbery
If we start to see a slide in distillates, it wouldn't be a cause for alarm, unless it fell below five-year averages.
Chris Ovrebo
It was a great throw from Ichiro. It was in my glove. But (Teixeira) made a great slide and knocked the ball loose.
Miguel Ojeda
It was a slider that didn't slide. It stayed right there on the inner half. It was a nice pitch to hit. I tried to blow it foul, but it stayed true right down the line.
Joe Borowski
No work can be done until the slide stabilizes and we don't know when that will occur. Certainly, I-80 could be closed for longer than two days.
Mark Dinger
We lost Shawn too many times tonight. I know from experience that he's a very slippery player. If you relax, he'll slide behind you.
Scott Skiles
I thought I was uncontroversial, and I thought I would just slide through. I naively told people that I was a non-controversial nominee.
Charles Pickering
Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice; Pull down your pants, and slide on the ice.
Sidney Freedman
I didn't have anybody to throw to, so I had to take off for second. I was just trying to cut him off and slide in front of the bag.
Jay Payton
A lot of people are cut from teams and walk away and we never hear from them again. The fact that he's out there wanting to slide and actually sliding pretty well, that's pretty cool.
Duncan Kennedy
In the past we would have let the slide happen. Everyone who was back from last year got together and said that we weren't going to let the snowball happen again this year. The coaches and the players were all positive, and we've been playing with a lot of confidence.
Brooke Meunier
A rapid change of weather forced several rocks to tumble and slide down the gradient. The rocks hit a group of tourists who were en route to the peak and three were killed.
James Wakibara
I've been doing this for too long to watch it slide out of my hands like that.
Clayton Leroy
I was in good position, so he could slide, but he came after me.
Yadier Molina
Of course, the licensing process is designed to simply slide as many people through with a minimum of experience and quality.
Todd Spencer
We gave away three runs because we don't slide. You can't do that at this level, especially at this (late) point in the year.
Tom Scarpinato
Penalties and turnovers hurt us and we're at the point where we have to get better or start to slide a bit. Our kids have a positive attitude and will use it to go on into the right direction.
Mark Peterson
I think I took off before he started to slide. I'll take a look at it on the film.
Kenoy Kennedy
Because he's such a great pass rusher, teams are going to slide their line to try and protect [the quarterback]. In this defense, you can't display your protection right away because you don't know where he's coming from. It constantly makes those [offensive linemen] check at the line because they have no idea where he's going to line up.
Vonnie Holliday
Yeah, and I like the way we did it. Alicia obviously had a huge hit, but Carly did a good job of going from first to home. Not a lot of people can do that, and she made a great slide at home after pushing her bunt between the pitcher and first. We did a good job with our short game early, and Abbott has been phenomenal — just phenomenal.
Dick Mandella
Celebrating Differences. You slide your finger down to your chest like your birthday ice cream is drooling down your chin.
Kate Smith
The slide in stocks gave investors a good reason to buy bonds. Weak U.S. housing data fueled concern of a U.S. economic slowdown, triggering buying of bonds.
Tsutomu Kawasaki
The first flash of fiction arrives without words. It consists of a fixed image like a slide or closer still a freeze frame showing characters in a simple situation....
Mavis Gallant
We allowed too many counterattacks. When we sent a defender ahead, we left a hole in the back. We didn't slide over to cover that. We found out quickly that we need to stay organized and not get too attack-minded.
Dave Woolley
We couldn't fit the ball screw and nut into our existing design with a fast enough pitch to suit the higher speeds. It would hit its limits and not allow us to reach the high linear speeds we needed. We could have found a ball screw with a fast lead, but it would not have fit into the current assembly, forcing us to redesign the entire slide system for a bigger, heavier screw.
Peter Ratcliffe
It's not like a lull. It's just the way the game is. You're not going to win every game and have a little letdown but the difference between good teams and bad teams is how quickly you get out of it, how quickly you regroup and realize you're in a slide and get back on the ball before it goes on.
Darren Mccarty
If we don't enforce laws of the historic district and allow things to slide, then it's unfair to homeowners that live in the area and do obey the rules. We don't have anything to defend. We are just doing our job.
Jacqueline Salame
It becomes more concrete, tangible - the coolest thing is our triple slide.
Kathy Connolly
We came out and played well and were able to finish some chances. The goals came pretty quick, but it was still a battle the rest of the way. I am proud of the guys. They knew this was a big game and they weren't going to let this one slide by.
Rich Brands
I knew he was coming. I just wanted to direct him where to slide to. We had a wild-pitch read from our guy on second base, and I saw it was going to be close and I wanted him to get down to the outside and he did.
Eric Etchison
I guess it's also easier for players to slide on, but that's the only other purpose it really serves.
Elliott Mccullough
Your honor ... he was given a slide show. In August of 2001, Tenet was given a presentation called 'Islamic Extremist' or 'Islamic Fundamentalist Learns to Fly.
Edward Macmahon
Your honor ... he was given a slide show.
Edward Macmahon
He was poking the screen with it, over and over until he ripped it. But he didn't say anything about it, and then he actually incorporated it into his explanation of the next slide.
Edward Cooke
There are many true statements about complex topics that are too long to fit on a PowerPoint slide.
Edward Tufte
Second, simply use PowerPoint as a slide projector rather than an information tool.
Edward Tufte
It reminds us what we're doing, we're all just playing a game in the snow. It doesn't matter how you slide down it.
