Cannot Quotations | Page 16

Some of these are hard steps to take, ... Hurricane Katrina has reminded us that we cannot escape these decisions.

Some of the studies use what appear to be obsolete data or data whose quality cannot be verified.

Spending on the battle against AIDS in the developing world needs to rise to roughly five times its present level, ... The developing countries themselves are ready to provide their share ... but they cannot do it alone.

Sports and other forms of vigorous physical activity provide educational experience which cannot be duplicated in the classroom. They are an uncompromising laboratory in which we must htink and act quickly and efficiently under pressure and then force us to meet our own inadequacies face to face - and do something about them - as nothing else does. In any athletic activity we are thrown upon our own resources to succeed or fail in the face of a strong and immediate challenge. Sports resemble life in a capsule form and the participant quickly learns that his preformance depends upon the development of strength, stammina, self-discipline and a sure and study judgement.

Reason interrupts man's career and asks him whether he may not bring beings into the world for whom he cannot provide the means of subsistence.

Reason is the tool men use to determine if their statements about reality are valid: there is no other. Those who do not or cannot reason are little better than slaves because their lives are controlled by the ideas of other men, ideas they have not examined.

Recent mergers have given the industry a strangle hold over the health insurance market. With fewer pressures for efficiency and no government oversight of rates, insurers have been given free rein to spend more of our health care dollars on overhead, profit, and administration. The last decade of HMO mergers has taught us that when fewer HMOs dominate the health care market, quality goes down, premiums go up, and patients get short changed. Already, 45 million Americans are uninsured because they cannot afford to pay the insurers' ransom.

Recent accounting-related legislation is having a significant impact at a time when the pool of qualified prospects is declining due to the 150-hour rule instituted by most states. As a result, many hiring managers have more work than they can handle with current staffing levels and cannot find enough capable new hires.

Refrain at all times from such Foods as cannot be procured without violence and oppression.

Refuse to fall down. If you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down, lift your heart toward heaven like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled and it will be filled. You may be pushed down. You may be kept from rising. But no one can keep you from lifting your heart toward heaven-only you. It is in the middle of misery that so much becomes clear. The one who says nothing good came of this is not yet listening.

Red is a thick, compelling color in my mind. If there's something red at home, such as a big red Chinese tie, the atmosphere will be different. But I cannot explain why red works on me that way. It's just a habit, a tradition that I'm so used to.

States cannot use their tax systems ... in a way that gives advantage to in-state economic activity. That is exactly what these tax incentives do.

States like Nepal, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, or Zimbabwe, which are members of the old Commission, cannot be allowed onto the new Council.

Steve has a good reputation for turning businesses around and creating value for shareholders. His short tenure is surprising and cannot bode well for the share price in the short term.

Surely what you are threatened with must come to pass and you cannot escape (it).

Such simplicity cannot be taught. But it can be denied and lost.

Surprisingly, games like chess and backgammon are tactically very similar to games like football and baseball. While the physical nature of the game is very different, the situational nature is strikingly similar. A football coach is constantly making decisions with respect to multiple variables (score, field position, down, yards to a first down, etc.). Sophisticated computer models and simulations were introduced in chess and backgammon more than 20 years ago, and much has been learned. To say that technology has revolutionized these games would be an understatement. There is absolutely no reason that ZEUS cannot have an equally revolutionary impact on professional sports such as football and baseball.

Such a match is too important for the national team, so I cannot miss it.

Played really smart golf. Played patient golf. You can lose the golf tournament on Saturday. You cannot win it.

Pinnacle has not been provided details of the tentative agreement between Northwest and its pilots, and therefore, cannot comment on its substance.

Our recruits and officers obviously cannot practice high-speed chases on the streets of Newark. Yet sadly, they do happen, and our officers must train for them. By making use of modern technology, Newark's finest will be able to simulate and train for these incidents.

Our parents cannot afford the resources wealthy parents have such as books, magazine and newspaper subscriptions, computers or educational games.

President Bush and his surrogates can justify this program all they want, but they cannot change the underlying fact that it remains an illegal program. The continued approval for this unlawful program undermines the very freedoms and values that define America.

President Bush has dug in his heels on a fight he surely cannot win. The deal will ... be aborted.

President Bush's disregard and disrespect for the Constitution are evident, but in America, we are all bound by the rule of law. The president took an oath to 'preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the United States.' He cannot use a claim of seeking to preserve our nation to undermine the rules that serve as our foundation. The Attorney General, who may have been involved with the formulation of this policy, must appoint an outside special counsel to let justice be served.

Relatives cannot help you in the studios," she says. "You stand or fall by your own efforts.

Real Madrid cannot say it went off to look for him -- but that doesn't mean he doesn't interest us.

Real Peace of mind has no ups and downs; it cannot be partial in adversity and whole in prosperity.

Part of the reason (motherly advice) bugs us as daughters is because our mothers are so powerful in our lives. They loom like giants. The reason mothers keep at it is because they're so powerless. They cannot get you to do what is so obvious to them you should do.

part of a pre-9/11 mindset we cannot go back to.

Paternalistic regulations often prohibit women from holding jobs in certain industries: In the Russian Federation, women cannot drive trucks in the agriculture sector; in Belarus, they cannot be carpenters; in Kazakhstan, they cannot be welders.

Paula hit a rock when out training and developed a bruised foot and it is taking a long time to settle down. In particular it has been causing problems on the track, constantly flaring up and she cannot do proper flat out training sessions. It reared up again at the end of January and we feel it would be stupid, too much of an unnecessary risk, to compete in Melbourne.

Particle physicists may freeze a second, open it up, and explore its dappled contents like surgeons pawing through an abdomen, but in real life, when events occur within thousandths of a second, our minds cannot distinguish past from future.

Originality is the one thing unoriginal minds cannot feel the use of.

Peace and security cannot be guaranteed by the construction of walls, by the erection of checkpoints and the confiscation of land, but rather by the recognition of rights.

Paul Kellogg has been a beloved and visionary leader of City Opera and we will miss him deeply. During the past ten years we have been fortunate to have had the benefit not only of his extraordinary artistic sensibility, his wise counsel and his inspirational leadership, but also of his impeccable human values, warmth and charm. That said, we cannot help but understand that he wishes to have more personal time after many years of service to the arts and we salute and thank him for his formidable accomplishments and significant contributions both to City Opera and to opera in general. Paul Kellogg's vision for City Opera has charted our course for the coming years. We are grateful beyond measure and will miss him profoundly.

People have become blind having lost the two eyes called faith; just because one cannot see, is God not present? May be, not for some but for others He is (present).

Optical networking is exploding, and the market will experience tremendous growth during the next decade. As we noted with Digital Subscriber Lines, few important technologies experience smooth and steady adoption cycles. Customers cannot accurately calculate the exact rate of adoption, and the inevitable result is inventory imbalances.

or any other very sensitive thing, we'll say cannot be circulated to anybody.

Our nation cannot afford to lose its manufacturing innovation edge and the wealth that it generates throughout our economy. ... Strong productivity growth helps America compete in the global economy and is the key to higher wages and better living standards for U.S. workers.

Our military is doing everything it can to equip Iraq's forces so our troops can come home as soon as possible, but we cannot leave until the job is done.

Our nation's communities cannot be a wild frontier where illegal aliens and unscrupulous employees subvert our nation's laws.

Our No. 1 goal is to keep this athletic department from having to consider pay-to-play for 10 to 15 years. Our community cannot afford that.

People in the U.K. cannot understand whether Blair has lost his mind or whether his ambition to be the second-most-powerful man in the world made him lose his mind.

People have to face regrets. Becoming mature means learning to accept what you cannot change, facing unresolved sorrows and learning to love life as it really happens, not as you would have it happen. When someone attaches unkindness to criticism, she's angry. Angry people need to criticize as an outlet for their anger. That's why you must reject unkind criticism. Unkind criticism is never part of a meaningful critique of you. Its purpose is not to teach or to help, its purpose is to punish. Life isn't supposed to be an all or nothing battle between misery and bliss. Life isn't supposed to be a battle at all. And when it comes to happiness, well, sometimes life is just okay, sometimes it's comfortable, sometimes wonderful, sometimes boring, sometimes unpleasant. When your day's not perfect, it's not a failure or a terrible loss. It's just another day.

People have told me that they cannot put down 'If I Stay' after reading it, and readers have become very invested in the love story between Adam and Mia.

People have realized that the dollar is important for gold but it's not the only factor and you cannot slavishly trade gold just simply because of what's happening to the dollar.

People might think that my queen should be highly educated, beautiful and the best of the best. Jetsun Pema is a kind-hearted girl who is very supportive and whom I can trust. I cannot say how she might appear to the people, but to me, she is the one.

People must look at the bigger picture. We cannot continue doing things as was in the past. People must learn to accept change.

I will advise them on how to reach the summit, I will show them how, and I will help them, but I cannot be responsible for their safety.

I will call them and ask for summer help, but I don't know if they are doing that program. If they cannot give me any help, then I will seek volunteers.

I will certainly welcome any idea that may bring the United States closer to Canada, Europe, Japan, England and other countries as partners in this convention, ... We cannot do without the Americans because they represent 25 percent of emissions, and an even greater percentage of the solution.

Jesus Himself said, 'No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money,' ... We believe the governor of Mississippi and his supporters in the Legislature have chosen to serve money.

Jews cannot believe in J.C. and remain Jewish.

Jim Mora has an idea of what he can and cannot do... He has a firsthand knowledge of that, regardless of what he has seen on tape... He's seen him day-to-day for years. I think it goes back to them and how they want to play him. We'll play him the same way we usually do within the system.

Just as with cars, it's critical to know the fuel efficiency of black holes. Without this information, we cannot figure out what is going on under the hood, so to speak, or what the engine can do.

Just because virtue cannot withstand the attack of subjectivity doesn't mean it ceases to exist.

Just because we cannot accept what's going on in East Timor, that doesn't necessarily mean that we're the ones that charge in there. I think others can probably do that better than we -- the Australians (or) the New Zealanders, for example.

Just as a drop of water in the ocean cannot avail much; but if a great river runneth into it, that maketh a great commotion.

I think the reason why Pakistan has rejected Indian overtures in this case are the consequence of that long history of suspicion and hostility. You cannot do otherwise from a Pakistani perspective, ... They would not like Indian personnel, doctors, army men on the ground in that area.

I think everybody at IBM knows the early 1990s disaster, and it's in our fabric that you cannot miss the ship.

I think every Jew has a collection of stories from the Holocaust, and those stories are an integral part of our identity today. The primary lesson of the Holocaust is that genocide silences victims' voices, and it's our responsibility to shout the words they cannot communicate.

I think everyone is hoping physical play will be allowed. Our team is built that way. You cannot play in an emotional setting without getting physical. Over 82 (regular-season) nights, there are times it's hard to get physical. But when your focus is on playing the same team every second night, it's hard not to get physical.

Landlords are very bullish because they know there is still strong demand for rented accommodation. This stems from aspiring first-time buyers who cannot afford to enter the market.

Landmines distinguish themselves because once they have been sown, once the soldier walks away from the weapon, the landmine cannot tell the difference between a soldier or a civilian - a woman, a child, a grandmother going out to collect firewood to make the family meal.

Landowners deserve to know what they can and cannot do with their property and the service should be responsible for telling them.

Land ownership has never been a problem. People have access to land. The peasants cannot complain about land ownership.

Large enterprises cannot stop investing in this Internet technology, ... They do so at great peril.

People are saying to me that what they don't want to do is put people who cannot afford this into a position where they are harming their own families.

OPEC is an anachronism today. This is not a market where suppliers have to manage any spare capacity. They cannot manage the short-term risk, which is going to be on the upside. What we're seeing here is a demand shock, but everybody is looking to OPEC as if it were a supply shock.

OPEC really cannot extend this period much longer, ... OPEC wants to do what I call a soft landing, by easing supply back into the market slowly and not causing any shocks.

OPEC really cannot extend this period much longer. OPEC wants to do what I call a soft landing, by easing supply back into the market slowly and not causing any shocks.

I restrain myself a great deal. I don't say it, or I phrase it differently. But now and again I drop a lulu because I cannot resist it.

Japanese company production cannot stay as it is. This agreement is a restart for us.

Our guesses are that the students we lost were those who cannot find housing. The rental property and apartments were hit very hard by the storm, and a lot of students left and were unable to return to finish the fall semester, and in some cases did not return to this date.

Our hope is they would want to stay and feel like part of the community, but of course their lives have been turned upside down and they cannot make those sorts of commitments right now.

Our inexperience showed when during uneven bars, our girls realized we were .175 behind Utah and we saw them fall for the second time on beam. We went out and tried not to fall after that. You cannot compete like that and it led to a chain reaction.

Our hearts and our prayers are with the victims, ... But one should also keep in mind the importance of reconstruction in Iraq. You cannot leave Iraq alone, because failure is not an option here.

Our helicopters cannot operate as visibility is zero, and we're also having problems delivering food by roads as they have been completely washed out. As soon as the weather is fine and we are given the go-ahead to use helicopters, we won't take a minute more than necessary to move.

Our heroic staff cannot keep going much longer. We can't get our people out fast enough.

Our kids were better prepared, we had a goal in mind and we knocked 'em off. We had a great day, and sometimes, it's too bad a day in December cannot carry over into March.

People across this country are awakening to their rights and seizing on the promise of the law. But you cannot be a rights lawyer in this country without becoming a rights case yourself.

People are prohibited from soliciting individuals while at work, and the facilities cannot be used for soliciting contributions or receiving those contributions.

NATO cannot accept that the unconstitutional coup in Ukraine has not led to the subjugation of the whole Ukrainian nation.

My youngest son becomes an award-winning nature photographer, and I cannot resist writing poems to his pictures. My daughter loves to cook, though I do not. Yet together, we write a cookbook with fairy tales. And now a second.

NASA cannot carry out all the tasks currently on its plate without significantly more money.

NASA cannot succeed alone in pursuing the exploration vision. It's a breathtakingly full dance card.

NASA cannot use aeronautics and science as a piggy bank to fund human space flight.

NASA simply cannot afford to do everything that our many constituencies would like us to do.

Maybe some of it is the fact we're an expansion team, and I cannot stand the fact that's such an easy excuse, ... I'm a member of this team, I'm the leader of this team, and I take responsibility for how the team plays.

John Schlosser cannot stay married after losing his wife and seeing his family turned upside down.

I'm still leading and I cannot play worse tomorrow than I did today. I felt like an 8-year-old again.

It is evident that the United Nations cannot, has no means, is not present on the ground and simply cannot possibly accede to this request.

It is extremely naive to think that mankind is capable of sinning against god. If god exists as a being who watches us, judges us, and cannot be contradicted, then how could anyone possibly contradict laws of conduct set forth by that being?

It is finished. It cannot and will not be changed.

It is difficult for them. People are not like machines; you cannot tell them 'new wicket, new conditions, get out there and perform'.

It is difficult indeed to understand the ego in its depth and devious ways. It is an inert entity, that is to say, it cannot know itself not can it know others; It has no fear; it will not bend before others; it degrades man from the golden glory, which is his due, to the level of lowly dust.

It is clear the solution to America 's energy challenges will need to come from advances in fuels and vehicle technology. The fact is, without the whole-hearted involvement of the oil industry, we cannot move forward far enough and fast enough. We obviously need key partners like the oil industry to invest in developing and marketing renewable fuels, like E85.

It is clear to me that ACS cannot conduct business as usual. We have lost a child we could have saved. We must take a careful look at all of the events over the past few months and make a determination of what is not working.

It is commercializing the memories, ... Memories cannot be sold, cannot be contracted.
