That process undoubtedly involves a constant remodelling of the organism in adaptation to new conditions; but it depends on the nature of those conditions whether the directions of the modifications effected shall be upward or downward.
Thomas H. Huxley
The way this animal was built, it must have been swimming. Swimming animals have a tendency to be dark on top and light on the bottom.

Gary Durbon
There's a tendency for people to think 'it'll never happen to me, ... The fact is, it could: we just don't know when. People in this country cannot afford to be complacent about flood risk.

Barbara Harsha
It will probably be different. The fans will probably be expecting me to do more because of the way this season has been. But I'm going to play about six weeks, maybe get 150 at-bats. If I don't play in the winter, I have a tendency to get fat [from] eating all of that Mexican food.
Oscar Robles
Conditioning is a big thing. We have this tendency to play 30 minutes of a 36 minute game. ... Half of it is conditioning, but then half of it is just the mental intensity to play the entire game.

Arnold Toynbee

Dr. Ken Gershman
Interactivity has the virtue of democracy, conferring upon everyone with access to a computer the right and opportunity to be heard, but it's also saddled with democracy's vice - a tendency to assume that everyone who has a right to be heard has some.
Wendy Kaminer
Not only are people spending more time, people have a tendency to purchase more things online, just because of the richer, more seamless experience.
Charles Buchwalter
Peter is very talented. He has a tendency once in awhile to get loose and nonchalant. He's 6-5, he can shoot it, he can put it on the floor, he can pass, he can rebound. He's a very talented basketball player.
Denis Freeman
Troy has a tendency to break down mechanically. It's very seldom and it was just a couple of little things about his mechanics. I told him to trust his stuff and get back in the zone. He's an exceptional pitcher, who needs to trust that stuff and go after hitters.
Clyde Metcalf
People have a tendency to stereotype shorts as being a means to an end (for filmmakers to) eventually produce a full-length feature. On the contrary, these short films stand on their own.
Peter Scarlet
There is certainly a tendency to make news out of every potential exploit on the Mac simply because it is more unusual than on some other platforms. A lot of times when you look behind the news, it is a little bit of a stretch.
Bud Tribble
Life begins at 40 - but so do fallen arches, rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story to the same person, three or four times.
Helen Rowland
Here in the United States, there is a tendency to over-prescribe in some instances. But it pales in comparison to the under-prescription or under-recognition of these problems in children, ...

John Cacioppo
In order to reduce the impact of this disease, it is essential that resistant bananas be developed, ...

Moreover, the pathogen has a tendency to develop resistance or tolerance toward some types of fungicides.
Randy Ploetz
I always start with a synopsis, but I have a horrible tendency to stray wildly from that blueprint. With ADORED I had to go back and edit quite heavily, tying up loose ends, which took a long time.
Tilly Bagshawe
The thing is, when you have an inside game you have a greater tendency to draw fouls and contact. Honestly, we don't have an inside game. We don't have back-to-the-basket guys. Our '5' guys are really '3s' and '4s' and I've converted them because you have to play somewhere inside of 10 feet. It may not be fair to them, but that's the situation that we're in.
Alex Butler
The essence of immorality is the tendency to make an exception of myself.
Jane Addams
The simple explanation for large-scale flooding is that it rains a huge amount and that flooding is part of natural processes. There is a tendency to look for culprits when these natural events occur.
David Kaimowitz
Underwater, problems have a tendency to compound themselves.
Roger Davis
I hate this fast growing tendency to chain men to machines in big factories and deprive them of all joy in their efforts - the plan will lead to cheap men and cheap products.
Richard Wagner
It is the tendency of the social burdens to crush out the middle class, and to force society into an organization of only two classes, one at each social extreme.
William Graham Sumner
We have a lot of young guys, and they have a tendency to stand and watch and not move around a lot. The Hilton Head attack did a better job of working the ball around and keeping our defense moving. If you can't work the ball around, your offense breaks down.
Kevin Palmer
We're still a long ways off here. Things have a tendency to change.
Kelly Donham
This whole scene is very strange. It's a very strange town and a very strange business, and it has a tendency to creep me out.
Benjamin Mckenzie
I've been a fan of his management skills for some time. I have a tendency to get a little emotional at times, but Jeff is always under control when the pressure is on.
Jim Parsons
When mining is down, we've seen the cycles that forestry has a tendency to be stable. It's rare that both are down. So we try to hedge our bets to be two companies in one by servicing those two diverse markets.
Sean Farnell
We have a tendency to get down and we get a little bit soft and we're not going to go very far in this process with that kind of attitude.
Coach Kathy Bull

Shaun Mcginn
Students would have a tendency, from my understanding, to underestimate the amount of alcohol they are drinking.
Tammy Loew
One of the things we felt we had to do with him is keep building confidence in himself. He had a tendency toward self-doubt. I was on him like a dirty shirt, but I was also patting him on the back. I just felt he needed confidence.
Ken Crawford
There is no stopping the world's tendency to throw off imposed restraints, the religious authority that is based on the ignorance of the many, the political authority that is based on the knowledge of the few.
Van Wyck Brooks
We got real tentative in the third quarter. We have had that tendency all season to relax and let up on teams. We've been doing that in either the first or third quarter of just about every game this season, and it's something we're going to have to learn to get over before we can take the next step as a team.
Daryl Brodziski
When you use the opportunity to allow the free-market system to work, it has the tendency to drive down costs.

Michael Knapp
When you lose a child, a (20)-month-old baby, I think it's a natural tendency to lash out at anybody you can, ... It's just a very difficult situation. And if it helps them (to) grieve (by blaming) the police, we can take that.
Tom Streicher
I would say I think it's about time. People have a tendency to think that entertaining in Washington politically and diplomatically is frivolous, but it is not. It is part of the work.
Sally Quinn
When they had difficulties they've had a tendency to lurch to the right and out of the mainstream, and we hope that doesn't happen this time.

Patsy Totusek
There is a tendency for the state to let them languish a bit in our facilities and we just can't have that now.
Steve Whitmore
All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the corruptable. Such people have a tendency to become drunk on violence, a condition to which they are quickly addicted.
Frank Herbert
When you have a big game, the tendency is to have a down game the next day. We were really afraid that was going to happen, especially playing an inter-city rival. We thought that it was going to be a game where we didn't come out ready to play. We didn't get home until 11 last night. The table was set for us to have an off night.
Andy Gentry
We have a tendency, every now and then, to play to other teams' levels. We had a team like Flint here and you didn't really know what to expect out of them. Luckily tonight, we didn't play to their level, we played to ours, and just got in front of them and then dominated.
Brent Rumble
When people are involved in a relatively serious accident, they're going to have a tendency to be a little dazed and confused.
Derek Byrd
If your folks were Democrat or Republican you tend to vote that way. If your folks were green and red you tend to follow that tradition. My theory is that has a tendency to follow through with what equipment you run.
Alan Anderson
Our efforts to increase the size of domestic airline market by reducing prices....Increased market share will be a product of that tendency.
Richard Lark
Momentum investing has become more and more in vogue. When certain stocks start to move, there's a tendency toward massive concentration.
Terrence Gabriel
With everyone being in a rush these days, the tendency is just to do a quick hand-off. But the more successful companies, the ones that are the happiest with the results, are those that take the time to fully assess where they are, do the due diligence internally and clean-up house before they hire the service providers.
Frank Casale
There's a tendency to consider fiction marginal because it's not in the mainstream of conventional advertiser's concerns, ... What these things do is show how powerful fiction is ... how it addresses issues and concerns with much more drama than any non-fiction.
Bill Buford

Karen Simmons

Les Ribnik
When people get defensive they're not getting defensive about the content of what you're saying. They get defensive because of what they think your intent is. When someone isn't responding to what you're saying, the tendency is to back off, water down the message. What you should do is step back and clarify your intent then get back to the message.
David Maxfield
The end of the year, you might just not come - there's a tendency, especially for seniors. We're trying to say it's still important because look at what you can get.
Connie Boesen
It is important to do what you don't know how to do. It is important to see your skills as keeping you from learning what is deepest and most mysterious. If you know how to focus, unfocus. If your tendency is to make sense out of chaos, start chaos.

David Cunningham
The tendency of democracies is, in all things, to mediocrity.
James Fenimore Cooper
GRAVITATION, n. The tendency of all bodies to approach one another with a strength proportion to the quantity of matter they contain -- the quantity of matter they contain being ascertained by the strength of their tendency to approach one another. This is a lovely and edifying illustration of how science, having made A the proof of B, makes B the proof of A.
Ambrose Bierce
I may have grown cynical from long service, but this is a tendency I do not like, and I sometimes think I'd rather be a dog and bay at the moon than stay in the Senate another six years and listen to it.
John Sharp Williams
The tendency to claim God as an ally for our partisan value and ends is the source of all religious fanaticism.
Reinhold Niebuhr
If the current tendency prevails, the survival of the nation will be under threat.

Randy Baseler
I think there's a tendency to believe that you pick up where you left off, but it doesn't work that way. Even with a lot of the same players back, it's a different team, with new coaches and some new ideas. Like most teams, we need some time to pull it together.
Kristy Bush
Most companies' tendency is to overestimate the skills they need.
Brendan Murphy
When you're away from it for a while, you kind of have a tendency to forget just how good of a golf course it is. You can't just pound it around out here. With young kids, you don't always see as good of course management and you don't see the amount of patience this course requires. That's what will test these guys.
Grier Jones
I think it's human nature that when you score three goals as fast as we did, you have a tendency to think how good you are and how easy it is. In hockey, goals can come in bunches, and that's what happened.
Kevin Constantine
Because there is very little honor left in American life, there is a certain built-in tendency to destroy masculinity in American men.
Norman Mailer
An authentic appraisal of your relationship with your wife might cause a disruption in your relationship, causing you to take responsibility, so crying at the TV ad allows you to evoke the emotion in an abstract way and avoid the hassle. People have a tendency to distract themselves from the difficult and painful process of having an actual relationship.
Nando Pelusi
Women in the United States feel personally vulnerable about the terrorism issue. Women have a tendency to be moved by these issues.
Sara Taylor
A tendency toward enthusiasm and a chivalrous instinct have more than once been weighed as evidence of a lack of judgment.
Lloyd Paul Stryker
It's called, padding your pocket. You bring all of this equipment down here, you bring all of this equipment to a site and set up, the tendency is to get as much material from this site as possible without having to move to another site and set up somewhere else.
Bruce Parker
Any leader, particularly in this day and age with a sensitivity to public relations, has a tendency to want to isolate opponents on specific issues. Part of that is putting out an emotionally laden phrase in the hopes of associating opponents with that phrase.
Dennis Simon
We play a lot of people. That way not everyone has to know everything we're doing, except for the quarterback. He has to know everything. Some teams have a tendency to play three, four receivers. We'll play seven or eight. Some teams play one or two running backs. We'll play five.
Chris Petersen
Extremely dangerous, with the tendency to deteriorate further.
Vlado Buckovski
She is one of the strongest girls I've ever met and when she connects on a ball, it has a tendency to go a long way. She fractured a finger a couple of weeks ago and has been hampered by that, so it was nice to see her come back and drive the ball like she can.
Darcy Rigsby
T here is this tendency to pick people who are going to do themselves the least damage at the hearings and to avoid people who might be more interesting.
Perry Dane
Although the particular inclination of the homosexual person is not a sin, it is a more or less strong tendency ordered to an intrinsic moral evil, and thus the inclination itself must be seen as an objective disorder.
Joseph Ratzinger
Any time two competitors join forces, there is a tendency to stop competing — a concept that looks good on paper but can be deadly in-market.
John Barker
An inborn tendency toward science turning it into a lifelong commitment.
Bruno Rossi
Geese are pretty smart creatures. They have a tendency to congregate in areas they know are safe.
Julie Oakes
Great running backs have a tendency to run by instinct, run by feel, and when they see the same blocking pattern three or four times, sometimes they anticipate what you are going to do the next time, ... There's some of that, and then some of that is just sheer determination, guts and talent. He is a phenomenal competitor, and he is blessed with great talent.
Jon Gruden
This animal is not interested in having lots of close contact with people. It has a tendency to ignore us and hope we ignore it.
Joel Thomas
The rough is very difficult Kentucky bluegrass, and the ball has a tendency to nestle down.
Doug Steffen
Obviously, people know more about the star players, so they have more opinions. People want to bet on players to succeed and on things to happen. It's a tendency we've seen over the years.
Jay Kornegay
I think that will all go away. There was a tendency to overpass early in his career, but he's making those decisions fine now. He's making good decisions. The one time I told him to shoot the puck, he feathered it over for an open-netter, so he knows what he's doing. That hasn't been an issue at camp.
Craig Mactavish
[Holley] always has a tendency to make plays like that. He's another option for us at the quarterback position. We're just glad he'll be with us for a while.
Willie Snead
It was good to get that early lead and not let them back in the game. We have had the tendency to not close out some opponents this year once we get ahead. Hopefully the girls have learned to finish every game strong.
Abbie Mitchell
Andrew's had a tendency in the past to get frustrated with certain players if they don't make plays. What's become evident in camp is he's got a lot more confidence in a lot of guys. He's not afraid to let it go.
Dirk Koetter
It really brought home to me the fact that we, as Americans, do have a tendency to get in too much of a hurry. The different pace of the Italian way of life was really a defining feature of the trip.
Paige Parrish
She's a great player. But she also has a tendency to want to do it by herself. She has to realize they can all rely on each other.
Nell Fookes
Bureaucracies themselves should be assumed to be noxious, authoritarian parasites on society, with a tendency to augment their own size and power and to cultivate a parasitical clientele in all classes of society.
William E. Simon
You have to go into the job description before you start hiring. There's a tendency that people worry about 'who' rather than 'what' too quickly.
Stephen Mcclure
It would seem that retailers have had a tendency to push the envelope with regard to marketing their sales events.
Christine Pritchard
I thought I did pitch better afterward. ... I have a tendency sometimes to kinda get lost in the game and just throw and not really think about what I'm doing. ... I had a chance to get back focused.
Brandon Morrow
[While the prices in the world of sports memorabilia tend to be much more predictable,] The Wayne Gretzky jersey and rookie card went through the roof, ... Anything Gretzky has a tendency to do well but this was a phenomenal jump that is bound to impact the future sale of Gretzky items.
Doug Allen
We really played in spurts. But we have a tendency, it's almost like they lose interest when we get a big lead.
Maura Mchugh
It is my belief that there is a tendency among the so-called 'modern' or 'hip' jazz musicians to consider styles other that their own, 'corny', and it is my contention that in actuality it is these musicians who are producing that which in future years perceptive critics will deem 'corny'.
Don Ellis
I think there's a tendency from the people who are in a position to create material to try and capitalize on what they believe to be a trend, ... and the only trend here is the fact that these kids are getting older and having money to go see movies.
Seth Green
I didn't like to read, ... I was embarrassed because I didn't want kids to laugh at me, and kids sometimes have the tendency to make you feel bad when you can't do what the teacher wants you to do.
Billy Blanks
[Duval knows he faces an uphill battle.] People talk about the grip change being so hard, but for me that has been the easiest thing, ... The hardest thing has been changing the way I release the club. I'm still not doing that like I want. I still have a tendency to do it the way I used to, and with the grip change, that's not a good mix.
David Duval
When the other team's best player is not playing, you have a tendency to relax and we tried to address that before the game. We were a little nervous coming in with all of the extra stuff that goes into this game, but for the most part we executed what we wanted to.
Kirk Hanson
The whole scene is very strange. It's a very strange town and a very strange business, and it has a tendency to creep me out.
Ben Mckenzie
We've had a tendency to rush against a zone and that makes us have to get out and work that much harder on defense. When we're patient we can use our speed and our penetration to try and get some good looks on the inside.
Mike Bradford
We came out in the first quarter ready to go. We have a tendency of not having a sense of urgency. Friday was a wake-up call, and we were going to make them take some tough shots.
Mike Browning
Rhett has a tendency, like all young quarterbacks, to go in there and try to do everything at once, ... He'll want to get it all done in one quarter, and we're going to give him more time than that.
Chuck Long
There is a tendency for current news to supplant old news, but the hit he took on Katrina, coupled with the hits he's taken on other areas -- the war, Social Security -- is a heavy load for this current hurricane to lift, even if he does really well.
Bruce Buchanan
The ultimate tendency of civilization is towards barbarism.
David Hare
What has destroyed every previous civilization has been the tendency to the unequal distribution of wealth and power.
Henry George
We started off kind of sloppy, but improved dramatically. We have a tendency to dribble the ball too much.
Kyle Davis
In 2001, our overseas sales overtook domestic sales. Today, they account for 53 percent of our total. I think this tendency will continue.
Keiichiro Akahoshi
To revolt is a natural tendency of life. Even a worm turns against the foot that crushes it. In general, the vitality and relative dignity of an animal can be measured by the intensity of its instinct to revolt.
Mikhail Bakunin
The tendency (is) once prices start to rise, for everybody to open the tap a little bit.
Julian Lee
I decry the current tendency to seek patents on algorithms. There are better ways to earn a living than to prevent other people from making use of one's contributions to computer science.
Donald Knuth
This is just the tip of the iceberg. We now have a greater tendency to help owners fix things instead of force compliance.
Ron Langley
There's a natural tendency after a war ends to put it away and put it to the side. But if you don't face up to the consequences from the get go, you're basically going to face these problems later on.
Lane Evans
It's our tendency to approach every problem as if it were a fight between two sides. We see it in headlines that are always using metaphors for war. It's a general atmosphere of animosity and contention that has taken over our public discourse.
Deborah Tannen
We need to manage the things that are exceptionally flammable -- dead leaves that collect in your yard, especially around your homes, have a tendency to do that. Get rid of those. Get rid of downed branches (and) downed trees that you might have.
Terry Lawson
When faced with structural injustice, especially in the form of oppressive military occupations, I have a tendency get a little worked up. So I was interested in learning more about the complicated conflict and decided I would lend some of my time and energy to do so.
Adam Beach
The only problem with drawing Nixon is restraint. Your tendency is to let your feelings come out. He's such a loathsome son of a bitch, and he looks so loathsome.
William H. Mauldin
When Kyra sets it makes her a lot more vocal and involved. She has a tendency when she's not setting to become an island. Kyra's a really smart player.
Amy Cooper
[French said his players have to disregard Montgomery's winless record and take care of business.] They're run into some tough breaks, but they've played people pretty well. They're struggling over there a bit, but that's typical when you come in with a new staff, ... They look solid on offense and defense, they just have tendency to lose focus.
Larry French
We are concerned with bills that have a tendency toward over-regulation and micro-management.
Donna Berger
US Federal Reserve will definitely raise the interests rates, however, current oil price is undergoing a relatively long period of climbing. By taking that kind of situation into consideration, it is an inevitable tendency the price of oil and commodity will continue to rise.
Frank Gong
Well-functioning markets have no innate tendency to promote excellence in any form. They offer no resistance to forces making for a descent into cultural barbarity or moral depravity.
Robert Solow
I use that word that he doesn't like to use, move. He has some of the best shots out there, but he has a tendency to take one good shot and rest. You can't win the way that he's doing. But we're going to work on that.
Ron Hutchins
He had a tendency to beat everybody by a score that appeared to be lopsided.
Joe O'brien
The tendency to whining and complaining may be taken as the surest sign symptom of little souls and inferior intellects.
Lord Jeffrey
Facing a team with this type of record, there is a tendency to underestimate that type of opponent. But they're a solid team that has had a couple bad breaks at inopportune times and can beat anyone.
Weylan Harding
To me it felt like it was just because I know how we are -- we have a tendency that when teams make a run on us it's a big one. To me it seemed closer than it was, but that could just be me because I'm always nervous.
Jim Bageanis
To assume we're going to have our head over a barrel and be forced to accept some sort of compromise bill is not the position we find ourselves in right now. The moratorium remains in effect. There is nothing new; the only thing new is this tendency to provide an alternate plan to one that wants to drill closer to Florida's shores.
Jason Kello
The governor is to be commended for doing that. In the past the tendency among governors and legislators has been basically to say this is a judicial responsibility. It really is everyone's responsibility.
Richard Bonnie
A tendency to drastically underestimate the frequency of coincidence is a prime characteristic of innumerates, who generally accord great significance to correspondences of all sorts while attributing too little significance to quite conclusive but l.
John Allen Paulos
One thing that we have seen in the market over the last few years is a tendency for movement to be condensed in very short time frames.
Mary Farrell
We have this romantic myth about having sex, and the minute things don't work like they used to, the tendency is to blame the partner. Couples shut down.
Judy Harris
The lapse we suffered was from our attitude. We have a tendency to fall apart when we're behind, but today we were resilient. We showed a lot of heart coming back against a good team.
Lindsay Bemis
The tendency has been to picture him as a bumbling, incompetent drunkard ... who didn't even know how to commit suicide. It makes him appear anything but what I had always thought of him.
William Anderson
The air was so fresh and nice and pure. (But) it was difficult to put on enough clothes to stay warm. No matter how many layers you had on, that wet air had a tendency to penetrate whatever you were wearing.
Billy Casper
Men still have this tendency to see food as being like fuel. It's there to serve a purpose.
Peter Baker
While we have made impressive efforts at achieving results to tackle this epidemic ... we seem to be leaving some people behind. If there were some tendency that we leave the children behind in these global efforts, that would not only be unfortunate, it would be unacceptable.
Hans Troedsson
There is a tendency to seek an objective account of everything before admitting its reality.
Thomas Nagel
Especially with the numbers actually coming out, the tendency for this market has been to get out of those stocks reporting earnings a day or two before the report because after they report, it's going to be downhill.
Terence Gabriel
If you've had an injury and get a chance to be ambulatory, you have a tendency to want to get the most out of life.
Scott Simon
It has a tendency to scratch.
David Zutler
This will have the tendency to authorize police to make decisions based on ethnicity.
Claire Guthrie Gastanaga
It brought a sense of reality to policy makers concerning the capabilities of the shuttle. The accident also showed the need for a large organization, such as NASA, to remain flexible, open-minded and diligent in face of the all-too-likely tendency to become complacent about operating a complex machine.
Paul Hardersen
