As for the pyramids, there is nothing to wonder at in them so much as the fact that so many men could be found degraded enough to spend their lives constructing a tomb for some ambitious booby, whom it would have been wiser and manlier to have drowned in the Nile, and then given his body to the dogs.

Ann Cook

We're not playing hardball here, ... We've got to make sure that we're spending our dollars wisely. If we come in with too little, too late, and they look at the agreement that we're drafting and that's unacceptable to them, then we'll have to cross that bridge when we get to it.

If anything, the book shows the good, the bad, the ugly, and then the sad. They're chasing these gold dreams, but what happens when you put too much value in your chain? If you spend all your money on your ring and then you go broke? It's not an advertisement for jewelry.

Minya Oh

That may raise the obvious question of whether there's an insatiable appetite on the part of the county commission to raise as much money as they can at any point in time.

Siham Faraj

If you're president of Texas Instruments and you go into your board of directors and say, 'Next year, we're just going to keep our market share,' you're out, you're fired.

Jim Tehan

Kirby Daley

The fact is that we'd have to spend the $3.2-million to use it for athletics. If we don't use it for athletics, we can still use it for the trail.

I think spending money on TV makes perfectly good sense. TV is tough, because the audience is fragmenting. But the best way to get butts in seats is to show a trailer, and TV [is a good environment for that].

David Card

(Students) have rights that have to be protected, but they also have responsibilities. We spend a lot of time talking about rights, but not much time talking about responsibility. Maybe these are opportunities to teach a lesson, not issue punishment.

Mark Wenzel

You can't have this kind of slowing in job growth coupled with rising energy prices and not see some adverse impact on consumer spending.

Alan Gayle

We're building a whole public health strategy based on these drugs, extrapolating a huge amount from a few small studies. How could you say they are efficacious? We don't know. Given that governments are spending millions, it's unconscionable that companies aren't giving more answers.

Laurie Garrett

The problem is the technology picks up some kind of anomaly or variation of soil. We go in with big backhoes and bulldozers, we spend all day doing it, and all we hit is rock or water tables.

Lauren Mack

The question is: Is it economic recovery or government spending [that has boosted the yen recently]? I tend to think it's the latter. There is little incentive to buy Japanese stocks at the present time, and really, little incentive to buy yen.

Don Hamson

Develop a simple plan to fully identify expenses and match to available savings, income, scholarships and grants so as not to overspend and create a situation where there is little or no money for future months. Control spending.

Jiang Enzhu

The momentum is there, but it's sporadic. There is no doubt that investment spending continues to move higher.

Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don't know which half.

John Wanamaker

Customer spending continues to improve.

Mark Loughridge

Tech is once again leading the market; there's definitely money flowing into the sector. There's the belief that the corporate spending cycle is going to pick some steam.

Owen Fitzpatrick

Gap has to know that it can't spend its way to success. The marketing message may be good, but if they can't get their product right, it won't help. The consumer ultimately votes with the wallet.

Todd Slater

Do more than is required. What is the distance between someone who achieves their goals consistently and those who spend their lives and careers merely following? The extra mile.

James Morgan

In season it's not uncommon for them to spend at least 40 hours a week, often 50 or 60 hours (on their sports). These guys do it willingly because they believe they can win the lottery and become a high-paid pro athlete.

Murray Sperber

I never believed that it was responsible to create this new entitlement, but it's even more irresponsible now, given that Hurricane Katrina has created new spending priorities for the federal government.

Susan Stout

I try to spend the city's money as if it were my own.

We spend almost six months out of the year together. As with any coach/player relationship, we do butt heads, but he's a great guy and is so helpful that it makes spending so much time together easy.

George Osborne

If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend six hours sharpening my ax.

Abraham Lincoln

Primary candidates spend months publicly beating one another up and spending money that should otherwise be hoarded for use against the other party. Meanwhile, incumbents rise above it all stressing their credentials as statesmen.

Kurt Walborn

Jim Diaz

It just became an accepted part of the culture. If you were National Guard or Reserve, or NCOs, noncommissioned officers, you were going to spend a lot of money out of your pocket. These are bureaucratic failures, but when they make mistakes like this, guys die. There has been progress made, but we're still seeing serious shortages.

Paul Rieckhoff

This is all a bit of a puzzle, ... It will depend obviously on how quickly these areas can be repopulated, and also you've got the positive of reconstruction spending and the fact that that will create jobs.

Paul Ashworth

The bond was full of pork and spending and tax increases.

Rod Benfield

The seniors, we played on an 8-3 team and didn't go to a bowl. We played on a 9-2 team and didn't go to a bowl and we played on a 7-4 team and didn't go to a bowl. So we decided there is no way we are spending the holidays at home again this year.

Johnnie Jones

It's not particularly substantial. Especially if you look at it from the point of view of the more than 450 billion pounds of government spending every year.

Adlai E. Stevenson Jr.

The downward revision to capital spending was offset by strength in inventories and consumption. All in all, it's a marginal downward revision. A domestic-demand-led economic recovery is continuing.

Bob Bowman

Random House would have preferred not to have this lawsuit and spend money defending the book and Dan Brown, but they've certainly not been hurt by it.

John Loose

If consumer spending falls, the probability of the economy slipping back into recession is very high.

Scott Hoyt

It is cost-effective. If you spend a little bit more, it will last longer.

Gurudas Dasgupta

From an economic development standpoint, most of the people who work there spend income on basics, and there's an immediate turnover into local economy. They buy groceries, pay rent and the money is quickly put back into the local economy.

Jay Shows

This one is going to be watched more than any of the others he's done and he has a great opportunity. At the same time, he can't do the usual Republican standard of limited government and less spending because then it would be a comedy show because he is doing the opposite.

Tammy Bruce

We continue to see reductions in near term spending plans by service providers especially in the United States.

Frank Dunn

Robert Rocha

We look for actual GAF (General Merchandise, Apparel, and Furniture/Furnishings) spending - which accounts for most holiday spending by consumers - to reach between $172 - $174 billion, which would represent a 5 - 6 percent increase over last year, ... This could make the 1998 holiday season the best since 1994's 8 percent gain.

Irwin Cohen

If they send someone $55 for a recorded instrument that they can get for $1 a page plus $1.50 for a certified copy, that's an awful lot of money to spend. They should be wary of paying that much money.

If you spend more time asking appropriate questions rather than giving answers or opinions, your listening skills will increase.

Wallace Shawn

We don't have buildings; we don't have cafeterias; we don't have football teams and marching bands. What we spend our money on is the actual education that students are getting and in particular, we spend our money on making sure that students have access to faculty.

Market participants may well associate bad news on the economy with an increase in fiscal spending and lower bond prices.

I'm going to continue doing what I want to do. And if it means I want to go and make a big movie, if it has something to say, I will want to make it. I don't want to spend my life wasting my time. If it's a big movie, I want to do it. If it's a small movie, I want to do it.

Jake Gyllenhaal

I spend probably six months of the year working outdoors three or four days a week.

Developing a budget is one of the most powerful tools. One woman, earning a fairly decent salary, was left with almost nothing at the end of every week. When she checked her expenses, she found she was spending $600 a month on clothing. Most people, in fact, don't know where their money is going.

Joel Greenberg

Even though the Fed is raising rates and stocks are volatile, we haven't seen much impact on either income growth or consumer confidence, which will provide support for spending in the second half of the year.

Tim Rogers

The jail we have now was clearly not built big enough. We didn't look far enough ahead and we shouldn't be too surprised we are in this spot now. At the time, the county focused on how much we could spend rather than what we needed.

Don Jankowski

They should do it once a month. We would then have the money to spend on things that are important, like books.

Pat Allen

A conservative government tends to have a lower tax, less spending and small government. Financial markets generally approve of these things. So a majority conservative government is beneficial to the Canadian dollar.

Firas Askari

I'm glad that larger companies are spending their time, talent and money in such exotic areas, because they have left a wide-open field for us that we are fully exploiting.

Jeffrey Lipton

We needed to be able to aggressively look at how we were spending the resources better than we could with a non-integrated system.

Jeff Loewer

We see very high vulnerability on the Jersey coast. These things are not going to happen tomorrow. It gradually unfolds over the course of the 21st century. But we will be spending ever-increasing amounts defending the coast.
