Challenge Quotations | Page 7

It is an extraordinary challenge and responsibility to build a museum at the very place where people died next to the memorial which will honor them.

It is a tremendous honor and a great responsibility to follow in Tim Taylor's footsteps as head hockey coach at Yale. His impact on Yale, Yale Hockey, and me personally has been profound. I enthusiastically embrace the challenge of building upon his legacy while taking the Yale Hockey program to the next level.

I think the whole team knew this was going to be a challenge tonight. Our main goal was just to push hard the whole game. There were a few lapses, but less than usual.

I think the state dropped the ball on this one. Those schools should be put in their own group. But I'm not going to complain too loud. It is what it is and as a coach I'm looking forward to the challenge if we get there.

I think they understand every game is important and they aren't going to have those easy games where you go out and blow somebody out by 20. These girls have been around long enough that they understand that. As the defending state champions, teams are coming out to beat us and they take that as a challenge and look forward to it.

I think they have great balance, and any time you have great balance, it's a much more difficult challenge to defend. Pittman has had an outstanding year; over 1,100 yards in ten games. I think he's tough, has great vision, finds the hole, and of course he's surrounded by a lot of good people. When you're complimented and you have the balance to both run and throw, then it opens everything up.

I think it?s there. I don?t think any player in our dressing room is worried about the challenge that?s ahead of us. If we take that framework-- that mindset -- that we?re not scared of anything, we?re going to be fine.

I think it's the same challenge that he had then.

I think any loss is disappointing. Obviously we wanted to challenge for the sectional title.

I think at this point just about everyone knows when they come down the lane, even if they do beat the first man, there's going to be somebody there to challenge the shot. Whether they block it or just alter the shot.

I think a lot of it has to do with concentration. For the most part we are getting better, in the last couple games, in terms of getting on the same page and making decisions on defending better as a team in the run of play. The goal we gave up last week against Salt Lake was a set piece goal. We gave up a few of those in the last couple of games. We have to challenge headers and we are clearing out balls that fall to the ground or fall to our feet.

Repetitive-stress injuries in the workplace are an important problem. I recognize this critical challenge and want you to understand that the safety and health of our nation's workforce will always be a priority during my tenure as Secretary,

Restraint can be tough. I've made a point to learn how to make a slow song have as much impact as a fast song. That's a challenge I've given myself, because it's easy to just get out there and blast through a bunch of things and feel as though you're exciting the audience. If you can do that with a slow song, then you really have some variety and some range.

Right now, our biggest challenge is getting a few games and some good outdoor practices in. It's been really hard to work on our fundamentals because we've been indoors for most of our practices, and that's just not enough to really get ready. We're also a pretty young team, especially in our pitching staff, so we just really need those extra games that we've lost.

Pacific has had a lot of success in this tournament. I thought it was going to be a great challenge for us.

Pacific has had a tremendous amount of success in this tournament. I have a tremendous amount of respect for them. I thought this was going to be a challenge for us and that proved to be correct.

Pakistan provides an ideal challenge and by playing a good team we would know where we stand.

Our challenge in the business community is to help stimulate an economy to the point where wages and payroll and things like that can keep pace with the cost of living, and at the same time, maintain our cost.

Our challenge in this new century is a different one, ... It's really to defend our nation against the unknown, the uncertain and, what we have to understand, will be the unexpected. That may seem on the face of it an impossible task but it is not.

Our challenge is a pretty great one. This time around, I like our team on paper better than 2002, but you don't win games on paper. On the field is how the teams will be judged. ... With a good training camp, good preparation games and the right mental approach, this will be a team that will challenge anybody in the World Cup.

Our challenge is having some kind of notion about what kinds of industry that we want. We could have pretty much already filled our industrial park - but we're not just about bringing anybody and everybody into our industrial park. That's not going to, in our judgment, serve the needs of Augusta County and the needs of the region.

Our challenge is not getting big, and the temptation is great,

Our challenge is that we respond to stark events.

Our challenge is to educate more people so that we can activate them. The prohibition in the D.C. appropriations bill is on lobbying activities, and this is not lobbying. This is education.

Our challenge is to get someone who has never been to the festival to buy a ticket for a show that they haven't been to before, artists that they don't know. But that's our reputation now.

Our challenge is to put them back to work at no less than 85 percent of their salary.

Our challenge to the players at halftime was can we put this team away. But we couldn't do it.

Our clients are primarily concerned about what goes on in New Buffalo. Our clients probably don't care what goes on with the casinos up north. The problem is, they all (are under) the same contract. You can't challenge one without challenging all four.

Our plan doesn't change at all. They have two great running backs and a good quarterback. So the challenge is even tougher this game.

Our position was we certainly couldn't comply with a contract that was under challenge by the taxpayers, as well as the Council, but now it has been declared lawful, and we want to do what we told the city we'd do all along.

Our premise is that the Chinese are not looking to challenge the United States globally, that China wants to be seen as playing a positive role internationally and that China can play a positive role.

Our storylines grew organically out of the characters and conflicts that already existed in the show. We wanted them to challenge themselves, with the temptations of power, with their own unique combination of hubris and self-doubt.

Our strength is our middle. We want to force teams to challenge us inside, so we can start pushing to the outside. We want to get them out of their comfort zone.

Our team as a group was not up to the challenge and that is unacceptable at this point of the season.

Our team obviously is down after the game. I don't know how you can play that game and not be down. We have to come back. That's our challenge right now. We have to bounce back. We can't go back to this game. It's over. We have to have the same mentality we had during that stretch. That's going to be our challenge right now.

Our coach told us defense would be the difference tonight. We made it a point to come out and challenge every dribble.

Our collective challenge remains to convert these changes into improved performance in both the Premiership and the cup competitions,

Our combined efforts to deal with the water challenge have turned our vulnerability into a strength,

Our big guys ran the floor about as well as they have all year. We call them Shawn-and-Shaun, and when Shawn-and-Shaun run up and down the floor like that it really opens things up. I was really worried about two things with Northwest. No. 1 was their 3-point shooting and No. 2 was their rebounding. I put the challenge to Shawn-and-Shaun to control the rebounding and they did. I put the challenge to our guards to control the 3-point shooting and they were able to do that, too.

Our athletes continue to rise to the challenge every time they step on the mat. They are definitely turning in their best performances of the season. We will have an impres­sive contingent of kids representing us at the state tournament. I'm excited to see what they can get done in Madison.

Our biggest challenge is going to be getting that 100 percent perfect. We need to keep things secured but some voting stations aren't very secure and we can't post security guards at every one.

Our biggest challenge now is funding the program with the growth we're seeing. There's a lot of fruit to be harvested out there.

Our biggest challenge this weekend will be for us to become mentally prepared for competition.

Our biggest challenge was the car. It's the staple of the show. It's something that everyone expects, and with the limited space on our stage, we were trying to figure out how to make it work. We just ended up building the set around the car.

Our biggest challenge will be their quickness. We're going to try to play in the half-court. Number one, we have to make baskets. Number two, we'll need to limit turnovers and, number three, we have to defend and keep them in front of us.

Our goal coming in was not to let them get open looks and not let them get on a roll. That second quarter was probably just too much for us to overcome. We got into a mentality where I don't think we accepted the challenge they put on us.

Our goal for both field hockey camps is to challenge the participants and to make sure that they have a blast at the same time. We are excited to offer an Elite Week for the first time. It is our aim for this camp is to give the elite field hockey player an opportunity to improve their knowledge and advance their skill while being able to compete against other top field hockey players. We only hire head coaches who have elite level coaching experience and who possess the ability to make each session both challenging and fun.

Our goal for the Grand Challenge is to prove the real-world feasibility of autonomous vehicles. There is no outstanding technical reason why unmanned vehicles can't be on the road today, ... We believe Team DAD has the answer for legitimate autonomous vehicles in a system that is ready for deployment right now -- the possibilities are endless.

Our focus is always on the Gateway, and we use the four non-conference games as a chance to evaluate towards that. (Eastern Illinois) will be a challenge for us. We'll know a lot more about ourselves when we get on Saturday.

Our success will depend on how fast the juniors and sophomores can adjust to the varsity game. We have a very talented younger group. This first year AA will be a challenge for us.

I think he's the leading scorer in the conference. It would definitely be a good challenge for me. I'm always looking to take on challenges and he's a great player.

I think he wants to challenge Julio Franco. When you think about it, though, there is no reason to retire if you're performing at a high level. The reason guys like that retire is they don't want to be embarrassed. Roger Clemens is not being embarrassed. He's doing the embarrassing.

I think he's gotten a lot better as the season went on. The kid's got a cannon for an arm. He's able to pick apart defenses and read his receivers downfield. It's going to be a challenge to stop the vertical passing game that they have.

It has been a challenge for us to place trailers,

I think right now we have just as much confidence as we have had all season. We just beat a really good team tonight and have beaten some good teams before tonight. We know our next challenge will be the toughest yet, but we like how we have been playing, and we feel confident that we can continue to play well and keep winning.

I was trying to tell as honest and true a story as I could, ... Really, the challenge is to portray the world the person lives in, and in the first volume it was an expanding world. You can see in 'Careless Love' how constricted Elvis' world becomes.

I tell you, as one who has studied the whole situation, I don't think Hitler is a fool - he is not going to challenge the British Empire

I think our team can take any challenge a team throws at us. If we get caught in a close game, I think we can make the right plays late in the game.

I still see us as underdogs. Seattle's been one of the top teams in the league, throughout the entire year. We're a No. 6 seed and barely made the playoffs. We've got a tough challenge ahead.
