America Quotes
I actually once sat at the back of a payroll class in America - just me and 40 women! And I'm sitting back there, learning payroll, because I want to understand it. So that when I talk to people about payroll I know what they're talking about. And I set up and managed and ran a full payroll system myself.

Age Quotes
Hunters in this stage are always learning new techniques and improving their skills in an effort to become better hunters. They tend to be more focused on one targeted species and spend countless hours in the field. They are usually more interested in applying management and harvest techniques, such as intensive fertilization of forage crops or limiting the buck harvest in a deer herd to improve age structure and antler production.

Alabama Quotes
We must educate and train our children to compete and succeed in the 21st century. Our kids are not going to grow up to compete with children in Alabama or Mississippi.

Improvement Quotes
He tries to locate weaknesses in their play. He knows them inside out, every position, so we know what we're going at every time we go out there. Every team has a weakness. A lot of the improvement has been down to the manager learning more about our opponents in the Premiership than he did last year.
-
Afraid Quotes
If something happened to one of those front-line guys, I'm not afraid to put them in because they know what we expect. A few years ago we had to go out and get the front line guys; London, Takeo and Jeff. Now we've drafted our next wave of guys. Those guys are learning from three of the best players in those positions right now.

Aggressive Quotes
He is an aggressive young fighter. He came to try and prove something, which is good in some ways. I think he learned a lot from sparring with me. He got confidence knowing that if he can spar with me he is able to match it with anyone. He is strong, but he does not have full experience yet, but potentially, he is very good. He has great ambitions to go forward. With more experience, he will become more confident in himself as he learns new tricks. He needs to keep learning from each fight.

Came Quotes
He was down 5-2 in the third set and came back and won. He really did a good job coming back. He's had trouble closing matches this year. He was up 5-1 in the third set earlier in the year and lost and he was up earlier this week and lost in the third set. I think he's learning how to close matches now -- hopefully.
-
Feet Quotes
He was a little of both. I didn't know much in those days, because it was only my third film. I was learning on my feet and he taught me a great deal. He was very open to actors' suggestions and he used whatever spontaneous thoughts or suggestions we might have, if they suited his purpose. He was a firm, but gentle leader.
-
Carries Quotes
He's had a big learning curve, and we want to play him more than what we did the other night, ... has got him scheduled to play more. He's a very good athlete, and he also can carry the football, and at some point here I'd like to get him a few carries and kind of see what he looks like there, too. But I think it's just a work in progress, and we're working really hard with him.
-
Calls Quotes
He's a young player who had not played center; we moved him to center when he got here. He's got excellent toughness and good strength. He is lost right now, learning how to play the position. Centers have to make all the calls and are in charge of a lot, so he's got to learn that and it's going to take some time. He's made very good progress, but he's got a long way to go.
-
Approach Quotes
He's young. We all were like that. You're not the type of goalie he is unless you are that competitive and have that drive to be the best. It's a learning process to where you get over that and you worry about it after the game but the next day it's a new day. It's not always easy. But with his work ethic and the way he does things I don't worry. Obviously his mental approach is something he's going to get stronger and stronger at.

Men And Women Quotes
He has no time for book learning or pussy-footing about. He wants to show these young men and women what they're up against - evil exists and they better know what they're getting themselves into. He's a one-man initiation ceremony, a walking rite-of-passage. He doesn't believe in treading lightly with Harry or the other students because that won't prepare them for the real world.
-
Choose Quotes
He had to do the same thing I did when I went to Washington, and that is to choose people who were very experienced in previous administrations, ... And I also chose a very experienced vice president, (Walter) Fritz Mondale, who kind of tided me over into my learning process when I got to Washington.

Cuts Quotes
He shook loose at the top of the stretch, but that was the second time he lugged in. But he's young, and we hope it's just a learning process. He has shown he has a lot of room for improvement, especially if he cuts out the two-year-old stuff. But he is very unique, and part of the reason is because he has a whole lot of ones (victories).

Aggressive Quotes
He seems to be pretty effective and I think that he's a guy that has a chance to be an impact player in this league. He's still pretty young, learning things. But he plays with a lot of aggressiveness, which is something I love, guys who are aggressive as far as defensively. And he can make plays not only for himself but for other people.

Care Quotes
I find it easy to dress other women, but when it comes to myself, I find it very difficult. I used to have no particular interest in clothes. Now I enjoy it more and pay much more care and attention. But I do get it wrong lots of times, and I'm like every other woman: learning from experience.

Basically Quotes
He came into the game, basically because of his size. We spent (Friday) working with him pretty hard on learning our offenses. When he came in, we just shrunk our playbook down to a minimal amount. He just played tremendous, keeping it simple. That has to be the case and he did a good job.

Age Quotes
He does have a little bit to learn about pitching, learning about hitters, situations in games, things like that. That will come. Anybody at the age of 19 is going to be in that same situation. The things that he has that the average 19-year-old, sometimes 25-year-old guys don't have. And that's what's going to carry him.

Anxious Quotes
There is a fine line between being able to control your body and having all that energy. He's learning how to do it. He wants to get a hit so bad that he will do anything it takes. If you told him to stand on his head, he would try it. Sometimes you try to make up for two weeks in one day. It doesn't work that way. You're anxious to get a hit. You're in a hurry to get a hit.

Adversity Quotes
We talked about this as an organization before we started the season. We felt there were going to be some bumps and quite a bit of adversity coming through, and we've seen it. But it's a learning experience. We are going to have to learn to deal with it. We are going to have to have a better second half, and I believe we will.

Against Quotes
Just the travel and what goes into being on a United States team, getting the uniform and the kit, going through the whole process and then lining up against Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda and all those different countries ... you hate to say it's a once in a life opportunity because I don't think it will be with Kiel, but it definitely sharpens you up when you get to the Big 12 meet. I think down the road this is just a huge learning experience for him and I think he's ready to run. It should be fun to watch.

Accused Quotes
My whole life has been dedicated to music. And of course, I've been accused a million times of playing too fast or too many notes, and I'm sure justifiably sometimes. But, you know, I'm the way I am and as we grow old, we learn and I'm still learning about space. But I'll be learning about space until I die.

Cause Quotes
My son Alessandro was always so terrific with his sister, and the three of us-Alessandro, Allegra and myself-made the highs as high as we could, and mostly tried to laugh at the lows. I have written about some of the difficulties a learning disability can cause a family, but there is always an up side to everything.
