Awhile Quotations

Maybe 'Doonby' will haunt people for awhile and make them wonder, 'What was that really about?' And that excites me as an artist.

I haven't given up on working... across the aisle on issues and maybe it'll take an election or two for that to fully ferment, maybe it you know sometimes it takes awhile for people to realize what the best path is.

Begin challenging your assumptions. Your assumptions are the windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in awhile or the light won't come in.

It takes awhile for writers to get to know actors rhythms, not just as actors, but what they bring to the characters. I think it takes a few episodes for the writing room to catch up to the actors and vice versa.

I graduated with an English degree and worked for awhile in academic publishing.

I was sort of in denial about doing country for awhile but I sort of grew up and realized who I was, what I wanted to say. I think country music is the best music in the world and I'm glad to be doing a country album. I hope people will love it as much as I loved making it.

There's a book called 'The Shack' - it had a lot to do with me coming full circle, meeting my birth mother. Awhile back, my birth mom and my adopted mom came to my show together, and it was pretty surreal.

One of the dilemmas domestic violence agencies have been facing for awhile is the fact that there are not enough beds.

one area at a time rather than just plopping things down, that after awhile it just looks like a big Monopoly board.

More important than the win, we came out with a sense that we're pretty tough, pretty resilient. I don't know if we could have been like that awhile back. We've come a long way. I don't think this trip could have gone any better for us.

My family kind of freaked out because this is a big season, not only for me but for our team. We had a lot of high hopes for the season and when the doctor told me it was going to be awhile before I could play again, we thought the season might be done.

Never be afraid to sit awhile and think.

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.

My last conversation was awhile back and was really about our heritage, trying to figure out where we came from and what we did,

There are people we wonder about but don't make attempts to contact. Perhaps we're afraid of empty conversations with someone or perhaps we're curious about someone whose life we watched for awhile from afar. Sometimes it's just been too long and sometimes we can't even articulate the need to know whatever happened to them. Where are they? Did they make it? Are they happy? Are they passionate about something in their lives? Are they anything like the people we once knew?

We're confident. It's been awhile since we've been 3-3 and where the next game means quite a bit. We're just trying to get respect. The NFC North has talked quite a bit about the records. But I see it getting better and I think we're leading the charge.

Men are like gum, after you chew them awhile they loose their flavor

Milwaukee is different from what I'm used to. It's cold and it's much more of an old town, a traditional city. When I first got here, compared to the cities I'm used to, Milwaukee was the complete opposite. It took awhile but I'm adjusted to it now.

Since we have not played in more than a week, I thought it would take awhile to get our motors going but we scored two runs in each of the first three innings.

She could have scored a lot more points if she wanted to. But she uses her teammates and gets them the ball, even if it took them awhile to get ready for it.

She was pretty humbled by winning Miss Utah. I remember it took awhile for it to sink in. Weeks after she won she was still grasping the fact that she is Miss Utah now.

I have a whole new respect for the guys that are successful at it, because it's not an easy job to sit for a few days and come in and face those nasty setup men when you're cold. That's why most organizations, most managers tend to lean on veteran guys like myself. We've been around awhile and maybe have a book on some of those pitchers and can handle the situation." ()

Kingsford was really ready to play. It took us awhile to get going and they surprised us.

Kids are the same at any school. There's a light that goes on when they start making adult decisions. For some kids, it takes awhile for the light to go on.

There are so many times that Zach will pass up a shot to get an assist. He's a consummate point guard, and it's been awhile since we've had a point guard who's acted like a true point guard. He's helped Matt get into the right scoring position a lot.

He is over in Iraq now, ... I worry every day when I wake up. 'How's he doing? I haven't heard from him, what's going on?' Every once in awhile I get an email and he'll say, 'I'm okay, I love you' and that's pretty much how it is.

I came to L.A. with confidence in my craft, and I was very offended when I didn't get a part. It took me awhile to understand that it is not always about your acting.

I got a little tired after awhile and I made some mistakes. You can't make mistakes against good teams. I feel good about the first three innings but I have a little bit of a sour taste in my mouth because of the fourth and the fifth.

I don't think it's going to run away on the upside any time soon. Fallen angels tend to take awhile to get some confidence built back up,

For whatever reason, it took us awhile to get loose. But the good thing is we finally did, and we were able to take care of business.

I believe that this person is not a bad person at all. Our family has felt strongly for a while -- and there's been some comfort here for awhile -- that this is just somebody who actually likes Elizabeth.

Business owners large and small had hopefully evacuated from the area, so they don't know yet how their businesses have fared. It will be awhile before we'll be able to clarify the scope of this disaster.

I felt like, for awhile there, I couldn't have played much worse - like, it was not good.

I have been here a long time, and I have seen this cycle happen before. I'll wait awhile and see if this flurry of activity leads to anything permanent.

To find a Division I-A opponent to play was very difficult because of that. And I was nervous for awhile that we'd have to go the I-AA route.

We're playing the way we're supposed to be playing. We've got a lot of big guys, and sometimes it takes awhile to figure things out. We've kind of figured it out now.

We met a lot of people in Detroit and we all got along really well and we were all like-minded. I played bass with the (Detroit) Cobras for awhile and I recorded on the first White Stripes record and sat in with lots of other people. We all kind of came up together. It's an honest association. It's a small collective group of people who played music and were into the same thing before all the hype. We all have the same roots.

If students come back and still have material to cover it takes awhile to get them back up to speed. You always lose a day or two.

Going in last year, everyone was excited about the starters -- on paper. But I had my concerns for certain reasons. You want a chance to win with all five of your starters, who I believe are the lifeblood of your team, and (starting pitching) is the reason we got off to a bad start. I honestly feel a lot better about the rotation. In fact, it's been awhile since we felt this good about the rotation. I'm pumped up about it.

He's been the same size and ability for awhile now, but he finally believes in himself. He's starting to get the success he deserves.

He might have been putting a little bit of pressure on himself trying to do too much. For any pitcher, first time out there, you don't know what to expect, you're just trying to go out there and try and get a good feel for the mound, because it's been awhile since we've done it, especially in game atmosphere.

He dispels the myth that good guys can't win. He brings out loyalty in people. All of his assistants have been there for quite awhile and want to stay loyal to him and the program. He's a person you would want to coach your son, a great motivator to young people.

He needs to go down and get everyday at-bats rather than sit up here on the bench. He's missed a year-plus of baseball. We brought him up here and kept him up awhile to see where he's at. He's doing pretty good after being out a year of baseball.

He made some bad pitches, ... It happens every once in awhile - not too often.

Listening is more than just a very rewarding habit. After awhile you discover what a world of information you can gain from hearing what others say, and If you're interested, you're interesting. All the most popular people are good listeners.

I think there'd have been a different outcome if I'd had a clean trip on the second turn. I was going for a hole on the fence and it closed. I had to steady her pretty hard. She's a big, long-striding filly, and it took her awhile to get her momentum back. I think she's going to be a nice filly.

Jeremy ignited the night with that tip play. It's just taking awhile to get in the groove. With a whole new set of guys, it's going to take him some time.

Our hitting was good. We put the ball in play and hit the ball hard. It had been awhile since we swept a team. We are hoping to finish strong in the Apollo and pick ourselves up a little bit.

Our kids were pretty impressive tonight. It's not about your opponent. It's all about you and how you play. That's what we tried to focus on. It's been awhile since we played. The kids have been practicing well and it showed out there on the court.

I think the team that plays in the opening round has a little advantage in the semifinal game. District play is a totally different atmosphere and it certainly took us awhile to adjust.

I think it will be awhile before we have casual conversations like this with our computers, ... but I think we're getting there much faster than we might have thought.

I stink right now. You get booed when you do bad in my job. You're either the hero or the goat every day. ... I've been the goat pretty good for awhile here.

I thought it all went well. I was just trying to get the (bat) head out. In general I guess I did. I hit the ball on the barrel, which is good. It's coming. I just need to keep hitting. It takes awhile to get those muscles strong again.

I thought it was going to take us awhile to get going offensively, and really it did on both ends of the floor. We hadn't practiced since Wednesday.

I think that was the biggest factor. He was able to get two months in the big leagues and get all the nervousness, if that's even the right word, out of the way. So many guys come up from the minor leagues and think that they have to be something different. They think it's a different game. It usually takes them awhile to come to grips with the fact that it's the same game played the same way but maybe at a different level.

It is going to be a very successful program, but we need to get the word out and it is going to take awhile to get the kinks worked out.

I think after 1970 or so, after I sold Soul City, I took off for awhile and didn't do too many gigs.

Our success will depend on the ability of this group to come together and play as a unit. We have the talent to stay on top in the conference and certainly return to the NCAA Tournament, but it will take awhile to see how it comes together.

Our swagger is totally different. We have confidence. You can see it in their kids' faces. It's taken awhile to come out.

I was very happy with our comeback. It was a little hairy for awhile but we did it.

I wondered for quite awhile if a shot would fall. Defensively, we were good enough, but we were tentative out of the gate offensively. We didn't attack as well as I would like from the start.

I think he's already one of the best ? if not the best ? catchers in all of baseball. He's going to continue to improve. People talk about power and hitting enough home runs. It takes awhile to adjust to the pitching. He's a contact hitter. He's not a free swinger.

It does take awhile to find yourself. The older I'm getting, the game is slowing down each year. Now ... yeah, it feels good.

It felt like the monkey is off my back. When I hit that ball, it was a great feeling. Coach Butler (hitting coach Todd Butler) told me, 'You can't go 0- for-the-rest-of-your-life.' I know that. I experienced it last year. I was 0 for awhile then finished the year strong.

It feels good to be in this position. It's been awhile for Kentucky. This team is very deserving.

It isn't just a bridge project, it's a sewer project. We have known from the outset that it would be awhile before we could work out an agreement with Central San. Whenever there is more than one agency involved, it adds to the complexity of the project.

I think Thor got a little tired at the end of the season, and this year we have the depth to give him a little rest once in awhile or DH him. Both Thor and Hopkins are swinging the bat real well right now, and Jay Zimmerman had a great sophomore year for us.

I think it?s really natural to have nerves, and it took us awhile to shake them off. But we were fine once we did.

I think they were just trying to figure out what I want and what they want from each other. It's one of those things where you're trying to change a whole culture and it takes awhile to create an environment.

It has been awhile so it feels good to be back up there. I've played this course so many times that I feel comfortable, but the big thing is that I'm just playing golf again instead of playing golf swing.

It happened awhile ago in a game at Detroit. He jammed it a little bit, but nothing serious, just a little swelling in it.

It happened so quick. I didn't have that many thoughts. When I first saw that I got shot, I thought I was going to die, but then after awhile I figured I was all right, so everything was pretty cool.

I think we deserve to be the No. 1 team, and if everyone plays their best, we are the No. 1 team. We're much more prepared to handle the hype. It takes awhile to understand what being No. 1 is all about.

It certainly fits the expected pattern. We've been in a strong economy for over a year now. But it usually takes awhile for the economy to absorb the excess out there, people who have been idle and unemployed.

It been awhile since the last time John has pitched, so I would expect John to pitch a whole lot better his next time out.

I think we're going to be harder to play against. We're going to be more physical, and there's going to be more of a price to pay to come into our zone. Players won't be poking around our net as much as they did last year trying to get rebounds because I think we can make them pay. And we didn't have that last year -- we haven't had that for awhile -- so that's going to really help us. I think our strength is going to be on the back end.

I thought we hung in there for awhile and played well in stretches. On our level mainly it's not as quick, not as fast up and down the floor.

Typically, I work with the script and the director for awhile before, just to make sure we're on the same page.

We're USDA. We're looking at it from an agricultural perspective. We do agricultural products here. We do food, ... We don't do cosmetics here. We're not lipstick. We're not mouthwash. We're not lawn-care products. It takes awhile to sit down and look at this and say, all right, how do we make this work?

That's the pitcher that everybody expected and the pitcher that I expected. It's taken me awhile to find my mechanics.

My brother took over crew chief duties a couple of weeks ago...he hadn't really been around these things for awhile and he's learned a lot very quickly.

We haven't played it like this in awhile where it's been dry. It plays more like a U.S. Open right now than it does a Masters, because lately, the Masters has been playing soft and wet.

We played pretty well, committing one error. It was good to see sound defense. With our young team, it'll take awhile for our hitting to catch up; so many guys are seeing varsity pitching for the first time.

We've known awhile that in many species, females prefer the most extravagant and flashy males. We've also known that when individuals choose mates that are highly related to them, it's often a bad thing, leading to offspring of poor quality.

We've lost a lot of close games, but I feel like things are clicking for us. It took us awhile to get adjusted to our new system, but we're excited about the second half of conference. We want to improve as much as we can and prepare for a good run in the conference tournament.

That was our first charge and responsibility. It's taken awhile to buy pieces of property and get landowners interested in upgrading their property.

That was definitely something we talked about during our whole bowl preparation. After being off for a month, timing is the biggest thing for us, especially in this offense. It took us awhile to get in tune.

Tracy was frustrated at the start of the season. She wasn't scoring and the links were which wasn't a bad thing. She built on each game and got more and more confidence. It took awhile for her to get used to the people around her.

We're a top-10 team. It's just taking awhile for people to recognize that.

We played a good game. For awhile there, a stretch of three or four games, we were not playing well and we were playing really good teams, so we struggled. One of those games was against Brunswick and they took care of business.

We basically ran together for a real long time. We were both working off each other and it was real helpful. She was ahead of me for awhile in the woods, then we were together, then I sped up in the woods.

What I thought was fun was partying and smoking a little. It took me awhile to realize I had to become a parent and not just be a mom in title only.

We're trying to get their intensity level up. It's something I've done for awhile and the kids seem to like it.

We put together the application for the grant and sent it out early this year. We didn't hear back for awhile so this was money we didn't expect to come in.

We have been doing golf packaging for about 15 years. It's taken awhile to cultivate our business, but within the last seven to eight years we have really blossomed.

We have to go on the idea that he's not going to be here. We can't be hanging our hopes on his return. It's going to be awhile if he comes back at all.

We started off slow. Male was getting good pitching and we weren't swinging the bats that well, but we got going later on and the hits started to drop in for us. We haven't played in several days and it took us awhile to get going.

Ben is a great quarterback. If I have to sit for awhile ... I have to be patient to some degree; I want to be patient in Pittsburgh. If my time comes, it will.

We feel we have a better team. I've been here awhile and this is the most excited I've been. But we have to focus on making sure that we work hard and keep that going. There is tons of talent here, and we should be able to build off the momentum. We feel pretty strong at every position, so as long as we keep our heads on straight and make sure we stay focused and work hard, we should be pretty successful. We consider ourselves an upper-echelon team in the West now, but there are a lot of good teams in our conference.

Everybody knows Shaq and everybody knows that Shaq always says that when the playoffs come, he'll be there. So we weren't really worried. We knew after he missed 18 games that it was going to take him awhile to get back. But I think right now is the right time for this team, that around the break time, he has a chance to get back in shape and get his form back.
