In a sense, knowledge shrinks as wisdom grows, for details are swallowed up in principles. The details for knowledge which are important, will be picked up ad hoc in each avocation of life, but the habit of the active utilization of well-understood principles is the final possession of WISDOM.

It belongs to the self-respect of intellect to pursue every tangle of thought to its final unravelment.

In life there are no problems, that is, objective and external choices; there is only the life which we do not resolve as a problem but which we live as an experience, whatever the final result may be.

Winning Olympic gold against the best players in the world is certainly my greatest moment in my hockey career. But hopefully I can get into the Stanley Cup Finals with Toronto, too.

Winning Section II finals was a big accomplishment for us. We knew we should have won last year, but we came up on the short end. We had to live with it for a year. I guess, a year later -- good things come around if you wait.

We picked up a pile of points from the relays. Most of the girls are happy, but some are disappointed they didn't get a chance to come back for the finals (today), especially our 200 free relay team. I don't know if we could have beaten Lafayette (the 200 free relay champion), but I would have liked to have gone up side-by-side and raced them.

We put ourselves in a position to win a title and we wrestled great and so did Rapids. I believe the two best teams met in the finals and the fans got to see a great match.

There's another way to edit the sentence, which is to add a comma before the second 'which.' The survivor is struggling toward 'some resolution,' not a specific resolution that the mind may never find. The final clause is an appended thought, not a conclusion of the previous clause: 'Death ends a life, but it does not end a relationship, which struggles on in the survivor's mind toward some resolution, which it may never find.'

This will be a tremendous opportunity to showcase one of the great cities in America and one of the great ballparks in Major League Baseball.

It's amazing, the tremendous capacity of that marvelous final great Heavenly City that Jesus has gone to prepare and is now all prepared for us and on its way here, just ready for its new tenants which Jesus is going to raise from both the dead and the living in the Rapture at His Second Coming and take us all away to be there with Him!

Successful trial lawyers are like heat-seeking missiles carrying payloads of information prejudicial to their opponent's case, constantly looking for the chance to unload their cargo, right up until the final moments of trial.

Final thoughts are so, you know, final. Let's call them closing words.

What a child does when not told what to do is the final indicator of what and who that child is.

She was gone and the coldness of it was her final gift.

The line between pride in our work and neurotic obstinacy is a narrow one. We make our recommendations clear. But we do not grudge our clients the right to the final say. It is their money.

The treatment of the indeterminacy principle as absolute and final can then be criticized as constituting an arbitrary restriction on scientific theories, since it does not follow from the quantum theory as such, but rather from the assumption of the unlimited validity of certain of its features, an assumption that can in no way ever be subjected to experimental proof.

The final aim is not to know, but to be.... You've got to know yourself so that you can at last be yourself. "Be yourself" is the last motto.

To be in the finals was great in itself, but to make it on your own composition made it all the more special.

My theory is that, just like with omitting a final comma in a list when not essential for meaning, publishers are trying to save paper and ink or pixels on-screen.

It is because God is infinitely great and good that his glory is the end of all things; and his good pleasure the highest reason for whatever comes to pass. What is man that he should contend with God, or presume that his interests rather than God's glory should be made the final end?

Movies are collaborative, and that's part of what makes it a great experience. They're different from a lot of other art forms, but also it makes it seem like when you see the final product, you go, 'I wouldn't have done that. I wouldn't have done this.'

When helicopters were snatching people from the grounds of the American embassy compound during the panic of the final Vietcong push into Saigon, I was sitting in front of the television set shouting, Get the chefs! Get the chefs!

I always save a few special outfits for the final rounds of a tournament, because they put me in a more positive mindset and I then make better decisions.

.. that which renders morality an active principle and constitutes virtue our happiness, and vice our misery: it is probable, I say, that this final sentence depends on some internal sense or feeling, which nature has made universal in the whole species.

It seems to me that no one picture can ever be a final summation of a personality. There are so many facets in every human being that it is impossible to present them all in one photograph.

You don't like to do that, because you like to set your finals on the basis of qualifying so your eight fastest kids will be running head-to-head (instead of strictly against the clock), but coaches understand that some things just have to be done.

When I was a college coach, my dream was to play against Coach Smith in the finals of the NCAA. I always felt it would be a win-win, and I could probably say the same thing for (playing against) Pop.

There is no question that series would be exciting to play. Not only for the Western Conference finals implications but also for the rivalry.

We're going to ice the strongest team we can because we want to finish with three victories to take into the finals weekend.

What a difference a week makes. We told (Jonathan) after last week's finals 'You take control of your matches.' He had a good week of practice and did exactly that.

We had 12 kids advance to the section finals last year. Our hope this year is to have at least 11 or 12 make it to the finals.

What has been forgotten is we did get to the finals of the NIT and I thought that was better than (losing) in the NCAA in the first round the way that team was.

When you talk about basketball in northwest Ohio, in Putnam County . . . I imagine it?s a lot like Indiana high-school basketball. I don?t know if you could find many counties in Ohio that have had six teams make it to the state finals in any sport.

There are some guys we would have liked to have seen in the finals and a few others we would have liked to have been No. 1, but you take a look at the bracket and realize it was meant to be. You realize that next week is what a lot of these guys were looking to, and they wanted to make sure they got there.

We know we have a target on our backs. Our schedule will definitely help us. We play three teams that were in the state finals last year - Charlevoix (Class C runner-up), Lansing Christian (Class D champion) and Detroit Country Day (Class B champ). We may not run the table, but we'll be better for it when it counts.

Don't waste the time. Time is the final currency, man. Not money, not power - it's time.

This year our team is going to get a chance to play in the state finals early. We get a chance to play Bedford (in the District). I think we're closer to them than we've ever been, but Bedford is the team to beat in the state.

We always knew a championship ring means way more than being an all-star, although we wanted to be all-stars. This is just secondary. It's not going to make me feel the same way as I felt when I was on that big stage in the finals when I won a championship. At the same time, it's going to be up there, because it's going to validate what I always felt about myself.

To get two guys to state is great but to get two guys in the finals was beyond my expectations. I don't know if this puts us on the map but we're definitely turning heads. I'm very excited. Let's hope this carries over to state. I'm proud of all my guys.

Everybody (in Rolla) was cheering for us in the tournament finals but nobody really gave us a chance to beat that team. After that I was feeling very good about our chemistry. We were starting to get some point production from several people and that was going to be critical.

As Sydney's premier football venue, the last thing we want to see is a big finals game having to be relocated,

Coming back to Battle Creek for the finals is really a dream come true for me. I really hope to see a lot of old friends, wrestlers I've coached and family.

It would have been awesome to have won one more and be in the finals again.

It would have been one heck of a finals match. We thought the bracket was set up wrong. They were the defending champions in their own building ---- how could we be in the same bracket as them?

The winner of the meet may do so based on what happens Friday in the preliminaries. It's about getting to the finals and to the inside lanes.

I slept in today until about 12. I had finals (scheduled), but I hadn't studied for any of them, and I was really tired, so I took a break.

The shuttle hurdle relay at the Drake Relays could be a lot of fun. We've got a couple of other guys who would like to be a part of that. We had three guys in the finals (at the Adidas Classic), but the hurdles in the conference is really, really strong, so (Sumrall) has got to get better if he wants to place at conference and I know that's what he wants to do.

It was a huge win. For us to come here and take this and get back to the finals again is a pretty impressive feat.

The State Open, the way it's bracketed, you just never know where you're going to end up. If you have three good guys that go to the finals you're going to score a lot of points. Some teams this year have that available to them, teams like Windham or Ledyard or even a team like Griswold probably.

The state tournament is a possibility for us. Especially if we have the same teams in our region as last year. A lot of it has to do with the fact that we're going to be driven. He lost in the regional finals last year, that'll motivate us.

We've only won what we've won before, we have to win the next series to get into the finals for the first time. But beating them two straight is quite an accomplishment.

When I watch NBA games now on TV, what I see the most are opportunities for the big men that they are not taking advantage of. That's what I told Tim Duncan when I saw him this year at the Finals in San Antonio. When you go into the lane and they take away the jump hook, just reverse pivot. The baseline is there.

I've never repeated, you know? We went to the finals back-to-back in Dallas, but we didn't win the second time. We lost in the final to Jersey. But if you have the same group, because of the knowledge you have, yeah, I think the journey is easier.

It was unbelievable. Making the finals is one thing, but getting to a Game 7 and being tied in that game after the first period is another. A lot of people think they have a chance to win the Cup, but the only chance to win the Cup is when you have three wins in the final. It's something that I'll always remember, but in the end, we came up empty.

It was unfortunate that the players had to take such a stance and maybe it was immaturity on the part of some of them. Genuine concerns will always be addressed through proper channels but I believe we should not lose focus of the job at hand at the finals in Egypt.

We should have somebody in every race. I think I can get somebody to the finals in every race and they've just got to perform.

Toward the end I just don't want to remember the other finals I played here and lost in the second set.

Both wickets can take a little bit of turn, particularly Adelaide, having had such a dry summer. The ball may turn a little bit more there, and the (shorter) square of the wicket boundaries also probably suit a few of our batsmen. But we are still going to have to play our best cricket to stretch Australia to the limit. We did that well in Sydney and we know going into the finals series that's the game we have to play.

Being among the playoff leaders but not having a championship like some of the others drives me a lot, ... To win a championship would complete my career. But I know it takes a lot of hard work, team effort. It's not going to be easy. I've been in the Finals four times and haven't won one yet, but hopefully this is the year we can pull it together and get one.

We are still in the finals so we are still a chance.

The thing is, we're not going to change. You have to understand something: This team has a lot of playoff experience. They've been to the Finals the last two years. They're not playing differently than what they've played. That's how they play.

Oh, how do you find words for what this means? This has been some of the greatest memories I've ever had on the court, ... I'll have these memories the rest of my life. Being in the finals at 35 just means you're going to have to put up with me a lot longer.

Of course we want to win the tournament. We've got two bad losses and no key wins. If we beat UAB again, get to the finals and lose ... maybe ... hopefully, they will consider us over them. It's in our hands.

With surveys showing American teens trailing their international counterparts in geographic literacy, it's great to see students like Francis excelling in travel and geographic competitions. Francis will compete with some of the nation's brightest students during the national finals in Orlando.

Finals is always a tough part of the year. I made it through. It ain't killed me yet so it's making me stronger.

Two more wins. That's what we were telling them before the game: 'Forget the regular season. We've got a three-game season right now we've got to focus on.' I think they've got it in mind to get back to the state finals again, to see if they can do it.

Two sets of coaches will be selected for the two teams. At this stage we are using the names as the Warriors and the Barbarians. At round about the finals of the colonial cup the coaches along with the national selection group will put together the two sides.

But obviously there are venues in our competition which are not suitable for finals football, for the crowds that are likely to turn up to finals in the future.

I've lost three finals before this one and I'm very happy that I won. When I got up in the morning, I knew this was going to be my day. I played my best match in a long time. I controlled the match until the end.

That's kind of our goal. Make the finals and let the kids decide what they're going to do from there.

That's my lucky number. My favorite NASCAR driver is number 6 (Mark Martin). When I saw we had six in the finals I thought we could get six champs.

That's why he's still out here playing and in the finals tomorrow.

That's what we all have to live with, because we've set a very high standard here. We've been at least to the conference finals three straight years and we've been a 50-win team four years in a row.

A manager should be judged on results and he has guided us to the World Cup finals as he said he would do.

All of our guys in the finals wrestled great during the day to get there. I could mention every one of them.

A lot of people are coming up and having strong finals and taking points, and that's a good indication of the depth in short track.
