When one is anxious only to live, he easily, in this solicitude, forgets the enjoyment of life. If his only concern is for life, and he thinks "if I only have my dear life," he does not apply his full strength to using, i. e., enjoying, life.

Max Stirner

We think consumer spending will go back to the kind of level we expected for the fourth quarter before [the attacks] happened, and that level was not one of great strength. We were thinking that it might be 2 to 3 percent above last year on a same-store basis, and last year was pretty bad. We would be coming off a weak base.

Kurt Barnard

We're watching Tropical Storm Rita's projected path and, depending on its strength and how much rain falls, everything could change. Residents moving into the area may have to evacuate again.

Duane Gapinski

Smaller manufacturers have seen some deterioration in the rate of profit growth, but the continued strength in sales, exports and capital investment indicates they have not yet been seriously affected by recent global turmoil.

Jerry Jasinowski

Controlling them up front, they make it extremely easy for our linebackers because of the quickness and strength that they have. They dominate the line of scrimmage for the rest of our defense and it make it easier for all of them.

Kevin Bartz

There was sufficient quality for two distinguished lists. The strength of the year's competition can be measured by the fact that three good books by previous Man Booker winners were finally not selected.

John Sutherland

In the last four minutes (against Dallas), he looked like the playoff quarterback he used to be. I know Joe didn't bench Ramsey because of lack of arm strength or lack of talent. He just didn't have it . The team didn't rally around him.

Mark Schlereth

Real strength is not just a condition of one's muscle, but a tenderness in one's spirit.

McCallister Dodds

I'm defending a just cause that gives me great spiritual and moral strength. This is no more than a cleansing to protect me against any circumstances.

Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador

Some would argue they're not as powerful as they were back in the '70s and early '80s, but that's to be expected because of the shift in political fortunes in the state. The fact that they've been able to maintain their prominence and strength as much as they have is a testament of their skills.

Bill Ballenger

The back months in live cattle and all the feeder contracts are showing some strength. Short-term fund buying and lower grain futures boosted the feeders.

James Brooks

New York is an extremely important market for us. It's the most attractive banking market in the US given its size and demographics. This gives us enormous strength in a very competitive marketplace.

Charlie Scharf

No matter what had happened during the day, I'd look at that picture, and it gave me strength, ... It was the most beautiful picture I'd seen of Papa John. Wherever you went in the room, those eyes followed you. There was wisdom, but also truth.

C. Michael White

I think our strength is our ability to run plays and execute, but sometimes we can't put the ball in the hole.

Jon Reed

TD Ameritrade gives us financial strength, accelerates our growth strategy and enhances our position as a leading industry player.

Joe Moglia

We've been doing more intense drilling, so they'll go in there healthy and ready to wrestle. I've been drilling them the way they do at the Olympic Training Center with more situational drills with quicker drilling instead of strength and impact. Just quick repetitions.

Joaquin Bautista

Teams can't run many gimmicks on us because you have to guard all the kids. The first of the year, that's what I thought our strength would be was shooting the ball, and they finally got it clicking.

Geoff Salmon

We spend a lot of time in the weight room and it helps. It's just a progression. (In college) I was growing up and my body was still developing. (Last year) I got a lot of time in and spent a lot of time in the off season (increasing his strength.

Tom Ashworth

The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.

Thomas Paine

The Street was surprised with the strength of the earnings in both quarters.

Howard Silverblatt

Our business goes from strength to strength creating more value by the day.

Clara Furse

Simply put, the fundamentals that affect our business are creating one of the best markets we've experienced in some time and this strength is both in the public and private marketplace, which is very reassuring.

William Dorey

I don't think any of that [history] is relevant. All we can do is focus on this year's team, play to our strength, be aggressive and get ready to play well.

Sean Mcnally

I understand why they want me to go to Indianapolis. I need to build up more arm strength and play competitive baseball again. I just need to show them I'm healthy and give them a reason to call me back up.

Sean Burnett

A lot of that inherent growth in Australia, and strength in the economy, has helped keep those housing volumes up, but we would say by the end of this year or the beginning of next year, all other things being equal, for it to come off slightly.

Chris Liddell

At this level every team you face is strong. Our strength this season has been our balance. Everyone will need to play well for us to win on Saturday.

Ron Pucci

To insist on strength is not war-mongering. It is peace-mongering.

Barry Goldwater

For god is nothing other than the eternally creative source of our relational power, our common strength, a god whose movement is to empower, bringing us into our own together, a god whose name in history is love.

Carter Heyward

In the long term, this will provide strength for the Canadian dollar. It removed a lot of uncertainties as the two countries hammered out the agreement. This should benefit the Canadian economy and the currency.

Linda Jespersen

This is just what I have thought when I have seen slaves at work-they seem to go through the motions of labor without putting strength into them. They keep their powers in reserve for their own use at night, perhaps.

Frederick Law Olmsted

After playing so hard last weekend, we were physically and emotionally drained. The day off will help us get back to full strength.

Jennilee Huddleston

There are movements which impinge upon the nerves with a strength that is incomparable, for movement has power to stir the senses and emotions, unique in itself.

Doris Humphrey

I look at an ant and l see myself: a native South African, endowed by nature with a strength much greater than my size so I might cope with the weight of a racism that crushes my spirit.

Miriam Makeba

Because he's got some natural aerobic ability, he's been able to spend more time on other areas of his game. He's spent a huge amount of time on his kicking, and the other thing he's focused on is his strength - he's put on between seven and nine kilos in a year that's basically muscle. He's got a man's body now.

Stephen Schwerdt

At 5-9, that's a pretty good accomplishment. She establishes good position, jumps well, has good timing and has very good strength.

Mike Poindexter

We knew that Ray wasn't going to be at full strength this week. But Coach Marshall stepped in, and that's where team camaraderie kicks in. And I think coming away with a win like this against a team as good as the Falcons, I think that means tons to him.

Marcus Tubbs

A la carte is not good for consumers, and we have experience to prove it. Disney Channel was once offered a la carte, but only a privileged few bought it despite the tremendous strength of our brand. Today, Disney Channel is in 87 million homes on expanded basic, and instead of putting our money towards marketing to retain subscribers, we are instead investing it in high quality programming.

Anne Sweeney

In Ontario, job losses in manufacturing have accelerated in recent months alongside announced layoffs in the key auto sector. However, Ontario's economy is well diversified and strength in the service sector, which accounts for more than 70% of overall employment and economic activity, should support vehicle sales of about 590,000 units in 2006 - in line with the average of the past two years.

Carlos Gomes

His skill level has improved because of his improved strength. Demetrius, he shoots it fairly well from 15-foot range, he's very effective around the basket and he's done a very good job defensively blocking shots.

John O'connell

I guess when a person is faced with this type of crisis, you gain a strength. I remained calm until we got home. That was my strength.

Phyllis Gronfur

It's high strength, high endurance but a different type of duress than sport climbing.

John Baumann

We're telling investors to use current strength in the dollar to get out of cyclical stocks.

James Cornish

Some smaller businesses are likely to close their doors. Most operators have just got their vehicles back from Hurricane Ivan and are right on the verge of recovering. Tourism is still not at full strength. People are going to struggle to afford this, and then they're going to do something else.

Kenrick Webster

It was so good to get on the mound and feel how I did today, ... I didn't have all my strength, but that's normal when you've taken some time off. I was about 80 to 90 percent on some pitches, with no pain on any pitch.

Jake Peavy

Hitting and team speed is our strength this season. Our pitchers will have to get some experience, though.

Kenny Fullman

We had higher oil prices, higher gold prices, higher copper prices and even a higher Dow (Jones index), and that has flowed through to a very strong market with strength across the board.

Angus Geddes

They talk about his defense, but what I saw offensively was not a weak shortstop. He's got more strength than I was led to believe. Anybody can do the drills when the ball is coming at you at 50 miles an hour (in batting practice), but I like what I see early.

Jeff Pentland

Bodies change as we get older, and most people do not maintain the strength per pound or the flexibility that children have. Risks get higher as you advance in gymnastics and the fear factor comes into play, and therefore the mental challenge increases.

Dave Sherman

Everyone fought really hard. But I don't think they saw the full strength of our team. We'll be alright. Sometimes things just don't work out like you think they will.

Ryan Rowe

I've always wanted to do more hitting because there's a certain rush of adrenaline you get when you put one down. I'd say that hitting is more fun and you get more glory doing it. But setting is my biggest strength and it's more important, so I enjoy doing both.

Jay Mergenthaler

The strength of the Ottawa Senators is and always will be its full-season ticket package base. More and more of our games are selling out in advance of game days, making each season ticket that much more valuable with scarcity.

Roy Mlakar

She has the strength of a trooper. She has never complained once. She has never cried about being in a wheelchair, not once, not once.

Tonya David

For each thorn, there's a rosebud... for each twilight — a dawn... for each trial — the strength to carry on, For each stormcloud — a rainbow... for each shadow — the sun... for each parting — sweet memories when sorrow is done.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I think they have adjusted really well and are so talented. They have already contributed so much to the team that it is only going to add to the strength of everyone who is returning.

Catrina Thompson

These phenomenal brands have proven their strength among girls and boys across multiple categories and types of media. Now we will bring these wildly popular brands to children in a way that sparks their imaginations and immerses them in exciting worlds where they are surrounded by their favorite characters.

Scott Zerby

Mohammed was not an apparent failure. He was a dazzling success, politically as well as spiritually, and Islam went from strength to strength to strength.

Karen Armstrong

I wanted to show the stamina and strength of the men's singles game in China so I focused really hard to aim to get one point at a time and when I got to 10-13 I felt much more confident.

Lin Dan

Most of the region's markets are trading off a bit, which is to be expected. The strength you've see over the last few days is basically the money that has been waiting on the sidelines for an opportunity to buy on the cheap; they've decided there is not going to be an opportunity to buy on the cheap, so they might as well get involved now.

Andrew Clarke

Candor gives wings to strength.

Motto

Right now the domestic brands do not have the reputation that would allow them to go without incentives. Chrysler tried it three years ago. Then two weeks later they got right back on the incentives because without them they couldn't market anything. The brand strength of Honda, the history of reliable, durable products, is great enough to pull in prospects without customer cash.

Tom Libby

There was a little bit of excitement at the open, and then later, a little concern as to whether there is really going to be enough economic strength to take things higher. How much longer can the Fed keep hiking rates and economic growth continue?

Chip Hanlon

You can't improve a community without effective access to education. Sometimes different groups need to work together in order to provide the strength for the whole community.

Rob Howard

The Royal Navy of England hath ever been its greatest defense and ornament; it is its ancient and natural strength; the floating bulwark of the island.

William Blackstone

I have the strength of a 10-year-old. If the track was 500 meters longer I might have a chance.

Georg Hackl

We came up with a partnership opportunity that leverages [Bravo's] efforts in gay programming and our strength in national advertising sales.

Mark Elderkin

Warming in the ocean is bad and good news. It really does add strength to the claims that global warming is here.

Tim Barnett

It (racing) is a matter of spirit, not strength. It is a matter of doing your best each little moment. There's never a break. You must have desire, a very intense desire to keep going.

Janet Guthrie

Success in golf depends less on strength of body than upon strength of mind and character.

Arnold Palmer

She's got great speed. She runs with strength. She's a pretty good player.

Duane Schwab

Our midfield has always been a strength of our team, particularly the depth, ... We have plenty of players who can contribute again this year. Andrew Jacobson will return this season and Eric Ebert, who made great strides as a sophomore, looks to have a breakout year.

Kevin Grimes

This has been a very deadly wildfire season, but Texas communities have shown strength, and we're going to continue fighting these fires from the ground and from the air.

Rachael Novier

We will see the strength in equities helping out the yen.

John Horner

He's got great speed, great strength. He's such a good athlete. He's also a very good person. That's the best thing about him.

Steve Laprad

It's always easier to make appointments when you're in a position of strength.

Michael Della Rocca

That to me is what makes him so good. People misconstrue the fact that even though he's light, he's very strong. He's got those long arms and he's used them to turn a weakness into a strength.

Anthony Becht

Some strengthening is forecast ... and Maria could be near hurricane strength by Sunday.

Jack Beven

We saw most of the indicators move up in the month, with the exception of the prices paid index, which generally provides an indication of strength in activity.

Paul Ferley

As the kids have gotten older, that?s been their strength with this particular group. That was something we talked about. Let?s push the ball and get it to the basket.

Jay Mckenna

Faith gives you an inner strength and a sense of balance and perspective in life.

Gregory Peck

In short, chemistry and chemical engineering contribute in critical ways to the economic strength, security, and well being of the nation.

David Wu

One of our goals for this race is to help raise the level of the sport in America. With Americans as the top-five riders into today's time trial and the top-five in the overall classification, the strength of U.S. riders in international cycling is evident here in California.

Shawn Hunter

We believe this capital cycle in mining equipment is different from those in the past two decades, specifically in length and strength.

John Hanson

There's some definite independent strength in the Australian dollar, aided by gold and commodities.

Richard Franulovich

He's dedicated; he works hard; he puts in the time. And on top of it all, he's a freak of nature strength-wise. It's unbelievable. His speed and strength are just phenomenal.

Paul Cummings

I thought he was strong. He came out throwing a good fastball to both sides of the plate. His curves and changes, he kept them down. He threw a couple splits to get a feeling for it. He looks solid. (His fastball) is probably nowhere near where it is when he's full strength, but he was getting it in there pretty hot.

Kurt Suzuki

Arnie wanted me to keep my back straight so I could get more strength and explode [forward] more. Now, my posture is straight up.

Rip Hamilton

Earnings for the fourth quarter have generally met or exceeded expectations. We've seen solid reports from a number of different industries, with strength not just in energy, as in previous quarters in 2005.

Michael Sheldon

What limitations I may have now are a small price to pay. I welcome the limitations. My faith has brought me through this and I eventually found strength in my weakness.

Cyndee Williams

They're trying to balance things out and I can't fault them for that. But I wish they would consider the uniqueness of our sport. It's not a sport that you can come in and start as a ninth-grader. It's too demanding with strength and flexibility. It's a demanding sport, and there's only a limited number of girls who do it.

Jeff Dwyer

This strength could result in orders coming in as high as $1.4 billion, above our original $1.2 billion estimate for the quarter.

Brett Hodess

Looking ahead, we continue to foresee an excellent year for Knight-Ridder. Advertising strength has grown each quarter, and we are optimistic that the fourth will be strong as well.

Ross Jones

It shows there's an underlying strength to this economy.

William Cheney

I've been working on my leg strength.

Anthony Binswanger

Vision is perhaps our greatest strength... it has kept us alive to the power and continuity of thought through the centuries, it makes us peer into the future and lends shape to the unknown.

Li Ka shing

The strength and diversity of our group of investors and advisers is a major asset for New West. We believe our new model for regional and community-based journalism can play a big role in serving both residents of the region and visitors, and in shaping the conversation about the future of the West.

Jonathan Weber

The underlying trends look positive, and I'm encouraged by stability in the margin and strength in loan growth.

Joe Morford

Participants in the market continue to maintain doubts about the strength and durability of the euro zone recovery.

Bernard Walschots

Our defense is our strength, and as long as we can do that we can keep ourselves in ballgames. We've all heard the saying that defense wins championships, and I think this year Tri-County proved that.

Tom Bajzatt

Our performance over the long-term will be driven by a disciplined focus on growing our core businesses, improving our cost competitiveness, and maintaining the strength of our balance sheet. By focusing on these priorities and staying focused on client relationships, we will be well positioned to deliver stable, sustainable performance over the long term.

Gerald T. Mccaughey

It's a striking testimonial to the strength and resilience of the U.S. economy. These are really good times for American workers.

Allen Sinai

Racing is a matter of spirit not strength.

Janet Guthrie

And with the extra time off we had, we got to lift more, so I think we'll be stronger. Before, we were practicing so much that we didn't have time to lift. So what happened was that you started to lose all the strength you had worked so hard to build up during the offseason.

Aaron Shea

People tend to look at core to get a look at overall strength and weakness of the economy.

Jay Bryson

It's great for your wind and strength.

Corey Perry

He didn't lose any strength in his arm. They have a lot of guys that can make big plays over there on offence.

Brian Kelly

My practicality consists in this, in the knowledge that if you beat your head against the wall it is your head which breaks and not the wall... that is my strength, my only strength.

Antonio Gramsci

There is great strength in self-knowledge.

Donna L. Friess

I was very happy with the way the girls came out. They went hard at the basket. We used a lot of our inside-outside game, which is our strength.

Brooke Svendsen

In moments of despair, the picture gives him strength. He thinks the IDF has given up its moral backbone, and I agree.

Moshe Feiglin

The First Coast is just booming. It is a confirmation of all the strength that we've seen.

John Godfrey

Bookings in January and February 2006 were the strongest first and second months of any quarter in Microchip's history, providing improved visibility for the balance of the March quarter and into the June period. We are experiencing broad-based strength by end markets, geographies, sales channels and product lines.

Steve Sanghi

The rise in foreign reserves demonstrates the strength of China's economy. But the extraordinary growth has also had some negative impact and brought with it foreign exchange rate risk.

Xiao Zhuoji

Activity has now contracted for two consecutive months, albeit mildly. As noted in the January release, the sustained strength of the rand exchange rate probably explains much of the pressure on manufacturing.

André Roux

The strength in this component, which includes apparel and home entertainment goods, bodes well for Christmas retail sales.

Carolyn Kwan

I would say my greatest strength is that I'm very competitive. I hate to lose.

James Lipscomb

September comparable sales were on plan, with strength in home appliances and electronics partially offsetting slow fall apparel results due to unseasonably warm weather. Other categories showing strong performance included home decor, outdoor sporting goods, jewelry, stationery, cosmetics and fragrances, cameras and accessories, consumables, seasonal items and pharmaceuticals.

Floyd Hall

It gives me more strength and more speed. I'm pretty much a power runner. I don't have a whole lot of moves. I just try to run over people.

Jeff Donaldson

There was decent strength across the retail sector. These numbers are consistent with an economy growing at a comfortable rate, a pace that would allow the Fed to continue to raise interest rates in a measured fashion.

Patrick Fearon

The world is topsy-turvy, and it needs our conserving strength and influence. Pacifism has gone into discard and is no longer to be feared.

Alexander Henry

Clearly the far more important factor for tech is the relative strength of the economy. It trumps the dollar situation. But if the dollar improves, it does take the bloom off the rose for some of the sales numbers that companies have reported.

David Joy

Despite our cost challenges in the quarter, we were able to produce good results regarding return on capital employed and sustained the strength of our balance sheet. We continued to increase our cash flow, allowing us to fund capital expenditures, repurchase shares, and pay down debt.

Brad Richardson

From what we've seen on film, they like to spread things out and sling it. We've come up with a defensive game plan to combat that. It's probably not as conventional as we've been in the past, but if that's their strength, we have to defend against it. If they catch it, we want them to catch it in front of us.

Barry Carter

Meditation gives me the energy and the strength to do all the things I do in my life. And my life is very full.

Carmella Hilbert

Sometimes the strength of motherhood is greater than natural laws.

Barbara Kingsolver

Momentum has been consolidated at quite a high level with strength coming mainly from mainland Chinese demand. This should be sustained through the first quarter of next year.

Ben Simpfendorfer

IBM had a good quarter. It showed the strength of our business model across hardware, software and services.

Sam Palmisano

We are excited to be part of this outstanding group of athletes who understand that the energy that comes from a protein-rich, well-balanced diet enables them to perform their best. Protein, as part of a meal, increases power and strength. This partnership allows us to communicate the importance of protein and nutrition to millions of Americans in an exciting way.

Bob Corscadden

When I am on a stage, I am the focus of thousands of eyes and it gives me strength. I feel that something, some energy, is flowing from the audience into me. I actually feel stronger because of these waves.

Lynn Fontanne

This is a continuation of the trend that's been in place for the past couple of years. Strength in the company's core growth vehicles, and the potential resolution of the Shop at Home problem, bolster our enthusiasm for the SSP growth story.

Peter Appert

I just want to thank God for giving us the strength to accomplish this.

Bobby Miller

Few men during their lifetime come anywhere near exhausting the resources dwelling within them. There are deep wells of strength that are never used.

Richard Byrd

I always loved running / it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs.

Jesse Owens

I believe in prayer. It's the best way we have to draw strength from heaven.

Josephine Baker

We have a lot of talent in the front row. Our hitting should be our strength, as well as our setting. The girls have worked hard during the conditioning circuits. Endurance will hopefully be a strength.

Jenny Lindsey

They just had an awesome shooting effort in the first half tonight. They got off to a great start shooting the ball, especially from 3-point range, which has not been their strength most of this season.

Ted Woodward

Last year, I think he relied a little bit too much on strength. This year his technique was better. He's really smooth. I didn't see him get in too much trouble. His ability is about that of a junior in high school.

Kyle Graichen

The Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach Collector Car Event is the East Coast's premier automotive lifestyle event where anyone can be a player instead of a side line spectator. Sales rose this year by approximately the same amount as our total sales just two years ago. We once again demonstrated the strength of the car collecting hobby.

Craig Jackson

I have to give credit to my strength and conditioning coach and to my quarterback coach for me being in good enough shape to run like that at the end of games. Coach Mike always makes me run after practice even though sometimes I get mad. But I appreciate it because it has paid dividends down the stretch.

Marques Hagans

Guys have to have athletic ability and the ability to stay on his feet. Plus he's got to have quickness, strength and explosion. He needs the ability to use his hands to get off of blocks. That's the most important thing. Guys have to stay on their feet, get off of blocks and find their way to the football.

Jay Hayes

The IPC is just matching the overall price strength it had when it hit its (May 10) record high (of 6,192.86 points). Many prices are still below the lifetime highs we had on May 10. Many stocks still have great upward potential.

Gerardo Copca

This market just keeps going and going and people are betting on even further gains. Strength in economic fundamentals is the biggest incentive.

Hitoshi Yamamoto

Our bench strength is the weakest spot on the team because our players our very young and have very little varsity experience.

Jesse Herrera

What we have seen over time is a gradual pickup in underlying growth momentum. The strength we were seeing earlier in the year in the export side has started to spill over to investment.

Silvia Pepino

Euro weakness could be more powerful than renewed dollar strength because sovereigns could refrain from divesting some of their U.S. dollar holdings.

Manfred Wolf

The world has changed. We can help shape the global economy, but ... the strength of unions is [not] going to reverse globalization.

Andy Stern

Don't be fooled by the seemingly soft 1.1 percent annualized print on headline US GDP for the fourth quarter, as the details of the report are definitely biased towards strength.

Beata Caranci

Everything was just a little bit softer in September than we anticipated, and everything was a little bit softer even than that in October, ... showed very good strength.

Michael Mcnamara

Merchant bar demand continues to draw strength from business investment while the previously booming consumer end-markets lose some luster.

John Anton

The market is weak today because of continued adjustment of the 10-year U.S. treasury and the strength of the euro.

Alberto Bernal

I've been trying to get the local scene its strength back. It needs a spark again. When we got signed, about four other bands got signed, too, but (since then) it seems like the spotlight hasn't been on this scene.

Bill Marcks

He really worked hard on gaining some weight. He's a stronger player. Hopefully, that strength will carry over (during the season).

Henry Mason

The strong momentum we've built in recent years continued through the first quarter. We exceeded our growth targets, made significant investment in our businesses, and overcame continued cost pressures. These results again demonstrate the strength and flexibility of our business model.

Jim Jenness

The Fed will probably feel the data is distorted by the Iraq war and that there's enough underlying strength in the U.S. economy for it to pickup after the war.

Kevin Grice

Lexington is so special because it draws so much strength from its individual neighborhood communities, which in turn strengthens the Lexington community. Lexington has a tradition of welcoming everyone, it had great appeal for individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs.

Peter Kelley

He had most of those lads throwing up he was working them so hard, ... We did basic strength and fitness training for about two hours ... and then we'd start choreographing all of the fight sequences and then we'd go into the afternoon and rehearse and then go out in the evening and start drinking, which is probably why the next morning people were throwing up.

Charlie Hunnam

The strength of our team has been our defense.

Jeff Carnazzo

One thing Jimmie does do is help our defense. He usually gets a steal, here or there, and helps get our transition game going. He's always a capable scorer. He can reel off three, five or seven points in a row. Hopefully, we'll get him back to full strength real soon.

Bryce Drew

Knowing we're not at full strength, that's one plus of where we're at. Even the people we have on the floor aren't healthy, so as the year goes on hopefully we're going to get better. We're not up to full strength yet, and to beat a tough Lee College team in our first two matches, it will be fun to see what happens later.

David Rehr

In the last four days, we have devoted our time and strength to the work and objectives of the APPF. We exchange views on issues of common interest in the fields of security, politics, socio economics, environment and development.

Agung Laksono

For the past couple of games we haven't been honing in on our defensive skills. But it feels good to get that chemistry back and to get that defense back, because that's what our strength is.

Brittany Morris

We made solid progress during the quarter against our key priorities of maintaining and building business strength, improving productivity and balance sheet strength. Continuing to deliver against these priorities will allow us to position CIBC for consistent, sustainable performance over the long term.

Gerald T. Mccaughey

It is urgent that ... we establish a force that has both the troop strength, the equipment and an unambiguous mandate to protect civilians from harm.

Juan Mendez

He's going to be a great foil for the guys on our show. Forest has always impressed me with his range. He's got an incredible sweetness and soulfulness but also strength. It's a rare combination for an actor and that appealed to me with this character.

Shawn Ryan

As long as Amazon is showing continued strength on the top and bottom line and the overall market is picking up momentum, this stock will participate in the rally.

Todd Campbell

This was a month in which a number of one-time events conspired to mask the true strength of the economy.

Avery Shenfeld

You have to care. You can't do good work if you don't care. That's not necessarily a strength, but it gives you strength.

William Albert Allard

We have a great opportunity to bring people together, and that's where our strength lies for the future.

Robert Duffy

It improves muscle strength and endurance levels, joint range of motion and flexibility, and balance.

Cedric Bryant

I think that rattled us a little bit. We weren't as aggressive attacking the rim. We made some adjustments to loosen things up, but the second half turned into a perimeter game and that's not our strength.

Bruce Heckmann

He's got to be doing it somehow. If it's not overwhelming size and strength, what is it?

Tim Ruskell

I've been fortunate to have been through that before, where the offense struggled and the defense had to play every snap. I've been through it, so that's where I get some of my strength from.

Donnie Henderson

Steamboat's strength is not downhill, for lack of experience, but our athletes skied very well in the event. All of the Steamboat athletes moved up from their start position in both the downhill and super G. Now that the speed portion of the event is over, we are focusing on the (technical) events, where Steamboat is much stronger.

Dusty Matheson

Is not the tremendous strength in men of the impulse to creative work in every field precisely due to their feeling of playing a relatively small part in the creation of living beings, which constantly impels them to an overcompensation in achievement?

Karen Horney

That was only one or two places. It was really close until the end. We had a little more strength in the [backstroke] and breaststroke and that really made a difference.

Barbara Hayes

It's that iconic imagery of that sea of raised fists during a live performance. It's a symbol of unity and strength and at the same time there are elements of defiance and rebellion that are inherent in that raised fist symbol. It's just one of those iconic pieces of imagery from the life of rock 'n' roll.

David Draiman

A lot of the tech selling is over. And the considerable strength of the U.S. economy is intact, interest rates are low, inflation is not a specter, so money continues to flow into the market.

Arnie Owen

As oil prices go below $60 per barrel, it should translate to yen strength. I think we are far closer to a top in dollar/yen and it is reasonable to expect a turn in the pair.

Boris Schlossberg

People are buying the U.S. dollar across the board on expectation of further rate hikes. Rate expectations in Canada have come down. You will see more U.S. dollar strength on the yield gap.

Maria Jones

I make films I believe in. Today my strength is emotional drama. I know I lack courage to do a variety of films but I am getting better.

Karan Johar

The jobless claims drop shows good strength in the labor market at the end of the year. It shows that the economy has recovered after the hurricanes and is heading into the new year with good momentum and good job prospects.

Gary Thayer

Muscular Dystrophy affects our family greatly, and it also affects so many other families and what's wonderful is that the MDA makes you feel that you're not alone and it is bigger than us. You feel the strength from that.

Lisa Ward

Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.

Norman Vincent Peale

We are experiencing broad-based strength by end markets, geographies, sales channels and product lines.

Steve Sanghi

This squares off a wrestling match between branded content and means of distribution with Disney's array of household media names pitched against Time Warner's hefty strength in cable distribution.

Lee Westerfield

Yves Montand and Toshiro Mifune are two favorite actors of mine, though I've only seen them in a few pictures. They have such personal strength: they're not truly handsome, but that doesn't matter.

Dorothy Stratten

You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

Marcus Aurelius

You have to be big and fast and strong. That's what we have really worked hard at. We have worked on being more explosive on the field. It is not just about size and strength. We have to get that on the field and get them moving faster. That is where we are headed.

Mark Stoops

If that intensity on the practice court increased, it would make her better, and more than anything, make everyone else better. Sometimes, when she is laid-back, everyone else is like her. I would like that to improve, and her strength to improve. That would help us tremendously.

Kurt Greene

I was interested in stepping out as a woman in philanthropy because I know that there are lots of powerful and generous women in the community and it gives us a common cause, which is schools. We show that we have strength and influence.

Sally Anderson

Our strength is our defense. We need Chris to get possession of the ball and get it to the offense.

Chris Denton

The biggest strength of this team is our resiliency. They've just been terribly resilient through all the obstacles that have been thrown at them. They continue to fight and find a way.

Andy Kennedy

He's not where he can do the quick movements yet. His strength is improving dramatically and his lower body is significantly stronger than it has been at any time this year, but some of the functional things on the field, he's just not ready yet.

Mark O'neal

I was waiting for this day for the past six weeks, really working hard on my game and getting my strength back and waiting for that first day of the new season. And I had a little butterflies in my stomach this season starting off the round.

Grace Park

I think our team strength is definitely our defense. They not only can shut down our opponents, but they generate so much offense for us.

Sean Maxwell

All in all, commodity prices are higher and we're seeing some strength in the Canadian dollar.

Jeremy Friesen

The housing strength is showing through, and there's really no end in sight to the expansion into urban areas, which is helping Lowe's same-store sales.

Keith Davis

To translate Africa's advantages in resources to competitive strength, and to realize sustainable development in Africa is our aim in the resources cooperation.

Wang Yingying

There used to be an iron law that governments won or lost elections on the strength of the economy.

Richard Shaw

(I)n in our global economy, our competition is not next door. The areas around us are our strength, not our competitors.

Sandy K. Baruah

We expect that they are going to improve. Listening to them they weren't at full strength and by then they hope to be. But I'm sure we'll train well and we don't want to lose at St. John.

Miles Avery
