Class Quotations | Page 15

My mom lived a much different airline experience, ... She was working Lufthansa in first class. So it was about passing out the caviar. Claire in this movie was a little bit more blue collar. But the one thing I did figure out is that Claire imagines her life as being as glamorous as my mom's airline life was many years ago.

I was a medium-level juvenile delinquent, class clown. And she would just say, 'Shaquille, that's not nice.' She was great to me.

Like they said in this class, more than likely (terrorists) are going to pick a smaller community because people think they won't.

Matt had class right before the meet. He only had 10 minutes to warm up. With his wrist, I think he was a little tentative, and he needed a little more time to warm up. Unfortunately, he didn't have that. I think that contributed to him getting off to a little slow start, but they picked it up and had a good finish, so I was happy with that.

London has such an unbelievable respect for theater, where L.A. does not. You go to a play here, and the dude next to you is sleeping. In London, if you're not in your seat when it starts, they lock the door. In Los Angeles, you can stroll into school late with a cup of coffee. In London, you get your butt to class on time.

Marsha has done it with class and style. It's hard to see someone leave who dates back to a time when none of us really knew the potential of our sport.

Marsha's obviously done it with class and with style. It's hard to see someone leave our profession who dates back to a time when none of us really knew the potential of our sport. ... You hope there's never a sense of the loss of history.

That balances our talent and our class size, and down the road that could really be the hidden blessing for the entire program.

That class has been significant for us. They were undefeated when they were in junior high, so they came in with a lot of lofty goals. This experience is huge for them and it's giving them a taste of what they can do over the next two years.

That class really helped him. I tell all of my players, 'Get in that class.' It's something different than just regular (physical education). Plus, they get a ton of confidence.

That class will end with a trip to the International Boston Seafood Show.

That concept didn't quite work out well and the district subsequently put in temporary walls to create individual classrooms. That made it nearly impossible for one class to exit their classroom without disrupting another. It was not a good learning environment.

Steve is a guy who is really good for kids, ... He showed a lot of class in the transition. It's one of those things that can't be easy for the guy who had the program. But he did it with such grace and class, it helped us.

Pleasant Hill, 8-2, is coming off a 54-51 win against Grain Valley (ranked in Class 4). Warrensburg had lost only to Cameron in seven games entering Thursday night (against Sedalia Smith-Cotton). The Webb City game is our Southwest Conference opener.

Our recruiting class this year is takings us in the right direction. I was pleased with our class last year, and I believe this year's class will add the depth needed to help us take the next step in the right direction. We feel we have everything in place to compete in the Conference USA championship and working toward receiving a spot in the NCAA Tournament.

Particularly with securities class actions, he will not let class actions go forward lightly.

Paul and Sarah Edwards are truly deserving of this award and recognition. Their books, talks and consulting have spawned thousands of new businesses across the nation and created a whole new class of small business owners working from home.

Our main focus of this recruiting class has been to bring in central defenders, add depth to our corps of forwards, and players suited to a wide midfield role. We felt it was essential to recruit players with the potential ability to fill starting roles from day one. With this class, I think we have certainly accomplished that goal. We also have added two very versatile attacking players.

Our message is stay in school. We need you in class to learn.

Our new coaching staff has adopted a 'hands-on' approach to monitoring study halls as well as setting the expectations for class attendance and performance.

People more and more are very concerned about changing back to what we had in class size.

I will bring new vision and ideas on ways to help the freshman class be successful and unite as a whole. I want to be class president because I am hungry - hungry in a way that RDH won't fill. I am hungry to see the class of 2009 reach its full potential as one of the largest and most ambitious classes in school history and truly make a difference in our campus community.

I think that definitely has to be the goal. To me, there are only two types of class - first and none. You're either trying to be the best, or you're not.

Last week I was one minute late, ... and when I got to class, the professor had locked the door. She was nice, though. She let me in.

Last year Duke had a monster recruiting class. This year North Carolina has a monster recruiting class. These two teams, with the way their personnel is rigged, should basically alternate Final Four appearances.

KUKA Robotics' robot product line gives us world class performance and reliability at an excellent value. We believe the KUKA robots will be key to delivering that performance and reliability to our welding cells.

Kyle has been fighting injuries all season and seems to be putting all that behind him and just wrestling. Watching him completely control that match was encouraging as he has a wide-open weight class in terms of state title contention.

I think the reason why people love 'Downton Abbey' is because all the characters are given the same weight. Some are nice, some are not, but it has nothing to do with class or oppressors versus the oppressed.

Language doesn't so much cause divisions as it symbolizes them. I don't think using 'evacuee' or 'refugee' will change people's minds, but it will signal differences about how we think about class that has always been there.

large number of lower-middle class and middle-class Americans struggling to make it paycheck-to-paycheck will be short of discretionary income during the holiday shopping season.

Last season we played one of the toughest schedules in Class L. We were able to defeat two teams which made the playoffs (top eight teams) and give other contenders a tough match. We were truly competitive all season long.

I remember when I took the role on E.R., I thought, 'I haven't really been able to play a working class woman. I've played girls, I've played funny, but I haven't played a working class woman. That sounds like something I'd like to do.'

Jerome is in a class of his own. He's much bigger than anybody else, and for him to have that speed and to be able to sidestep people, and then run through people, that puts him in a different class.

Jefferson University Physicians is a world-class organization and we are excited to partner with them as they continue to lead the transformation of the delivery of healthcare in the Philadelphia area.

Our incoming class for next season fills some immediate needs and we're thrilled to have each of them join our program.

Our junior classes and sophomore class are small - five and six players. But they've been sticking it out for the whole time, so I don't expect any of them to go anywhere.

Our junior class has a year's worth of experience. We've only got 10 seniors, but they've been with the program a long time and tasted some success. We feel like they're the ones who've overcome since their freshman year. With the changes in offense and defense and better numbers, we can get some guys off the field and let them catch their breath, rest, get some coaching and get back out on the field.

Our junior class is the backbone of our program right now, ... It is very evident, as all four have been major contributors this fall. You expect leadership from veterans and we have gotten leadership from them this fall, but I am expecting even more throughout the year.

Nathan proved he has the class to compete at this level,

National's Class D audio amplifier portfolio continues to meet our customers' design requirements for great audio performance in small, low- power, low-heat portable applications.

For the first time, Mammoth will be a place where outdoor enthusiasts can experience the unparalleled amenities and services of a five-star resort hotel combined with privileges of owning a prestigious second home.

Justin always wrestled in the toughest weight class at states. It was great to see him overcome those semifinal losses, knowing that his life was going to be that much better, and wrestling was going to be that much more fun for him. It was also great for him and his family, because they win and lose with him. When he steps out on the mat, we're all out there with him.

I think the strength of this class is its versatility. It has a little bit of everything: character, solid academic credentials and athletic ability. We went looking for help across the board at every position, and we feel as though we accomplished that goal.

I think this has hurt the Class S schools.

I think this is a good example of why many colleges and high schools have de-emphasized class rank. It's part of the education process that doesn't involve education.

I think this is an outstanding move for the league. To hold the tournament in a first-class venue like Blue Cross Arena is a big step for the league as it continues its growth in the college hockey community.

I think this is a pretty good draft class overall. It's really shaping up that way because of the underclassmen. Usually, they're the key factor in whether a draft is good or not. It's very deep at a lot of positions.

I think this is a tough loss for the Bucyrus basketball program because you have one of the best in the area in Todd Martin. He got kids to buy into his program. I respect Todd's decision. Todd is a class person. Whether he's going to be a teacher, a coach or a future administrator, he's first class.

It is difficult to get a better opponent than Brazil. The team has outstanding class and spectators will have a good experience.

It is difficult to keep spending millions of pounds on top-class players,

I thought it was a real solid class. It was a class that met needs. With the package we're playing now (with extra defensive backs), we'll probably load the field with guys who have that kind of ability.

I think it will improve the flow of the game, especially in Class AA when you're trying to play more kids.

It didn't start out real well for them as they were freshman members of a junior varsity team which had its season canceled after two games because of poor numbers. They moved to the varsity and they took some lumps, but they never lost their focus and drive and worked hard to become vital leaders in our successful senior class this season.

I think this team has set a standard for themselves both in practice and in games to be the very best we can be every day we step onto the field. I think it's a true testament to the senior class and it's certainly a credit to how they've prepared and approached every day since they walked onto this campus.

I think this team really started to blossom in January. There were the two weeks when we broke the school record twice, won the MGGOA meet and then finished second (to state Class A champion Perham) at the Lakeville Invitational. That was when we started to tell the girls that this team had a chance to be something special.

I'm here to get an education and make a living at the same time. I think my teachers back at Tech understand, and I haven't had a problem with one of them yet. I try to work with them and be in class as much as I can.

I thought I was beyond being able to be shocked. I've seen everything. But this case is in a class by itself.

I thought his form last season was fantastic and in the Tri-Series he was first class. He's a great addition to our club. Personality-wise, too, he fits in really well. The players are very impressed with the talents he's shown.

I thought he stood his ground well. They have some real class skaters, and they scored some great goals.

I was kind of surprised I made it. It's an honor to be included with players from three continents. This is world class tennis.

I was just trying to get to class on time when I was 19,

I think that it's an outstanding class they selected more than they actually recruited this year. I'm not trying to take anything away from them. They literally were selecting players to a level where I've never seen anybody do before in the state.

I think that we will bounce back. I think that I am still getting good leadership. We are getting very consistent play from the upper class but I need to get a little bit more from people coming off the bench.

I think that we accomplished a lot in our four-year career here. At the beginning it was a struggle, but these last two years for the senior class and the junior class, (what) they went through with us has been great.

I think that these data present real concerns about how can we use this class in the future. And it certainly says it makes little sense to make it an important part of drug stockpiles for pandemic response,

It about doubles the payment to go from a class five to a class 10 at Farmer's Insurance. The distinction definitely makes a difference for the people living in those areas.

I suspect this rush to settle the civil antitrust actions and the securities class action are the product of both an approaching deal with the government involving a plea of guilty to criminal price fixing, and also the approaching shareholders meeting.

I think that their contributions to Cornell lacrosse go beyond any statistical analysis or data that you can put in the paper or attempt to articulate. One of the goals of every senior class is to leave Cornell better than when they found it and this year's senior class has done so tenfold.

It is, in effect, an enterprise-class product controlled by the enterprise switch.

Laughter crosses boundaries of class and age... Humour is universal.

Last year, our goal was to win at least three games, because that's something no Division 1 team without a senior class had ever done before. We ended up 2-7, which didn't sit well with anybody around here. We have everybody returning from last year's team and a lot of them have game experience, which puts us in a unique situation this season.

Last year, our ratings growth was led by the strength of our original programs. We plan to continue that momentum this year with original movies and events based on some of our biggest hits. With both Class of 3000, from one of the most gifted talents in the music industry, Andre Benjamin, and Squirrel Boy, we are looking forward to another exciting year.

Last year our recruiting class ranked 27th nationally, and this year we looked to continue the tradition. We have a strong group coming in for the 2006 season, and they will have the opportunity to compete and help bolster our lineup.

It is amazing that the wisdom of the chattering class to the Republicans is always, always, always 'Surrender your principles and agree with the Democrats.' That's been true for my entire lifetime.

It is an awesome event for the kids. The Physics Olympics allows them to use the physics they learn in class and to see it applied in many different ways.

It is a really simple program. All students have to do is fill out a contract saying they'll attend class and take notes. The disability center provides the paper and copies so students can simply come by anytime and drop off the notes.

I think they can. The sophomore class has a good group. I told Jeremy, Josh and Ryan that you have been given a gift by these seniors about what the intangibles are and how hard you need to work during the summer. Put that inside of you and bring it next year.
