Miles Quotations | Page 3

Miles pitched well enough to keep us close. He hung in there and battled tonight. He didn't have his good command like he's had recently, but he battled long enough for us to eventually get a win.

Miles Sutter is one of the best attackers I've seen so it was our plan to try to shut him down. He scored (three) goals, but otherwise I thought Kyle did an excellent job containing him.

She lost control of the car and drove up on the sidewalk, accidentally floored it, went 80 miles an hour, and when she was stopped by the police chief, she offered the guy a bribe, ... And the cop said, 'We don't do that here.'

Life has evolved to thrive in environments that are extreme only by our limited human standards: in the boiling battery acid of Yellowstone hot springs, in the cracks of permanent ice sheets, in the cooling waters of nuclear reactors, miles beneath the Earth's crust, in pure salt crystals, and inside the rocks of the dry valleys of Antarctica.

So if you cover five miles and you're lifting your same body weight to cover that five miles, at the end of the five miles, you've done the same amount of work.

She was bummed out with swimming and was thinking about quitting. Dana was only interested in swimming miles with the long strokes. She did not have any desire to learn the short strokes. I talked with her about changing that, and she had a wonderful attitude with it. She really loves swimming and wanted to fall in love with it again.

To power the country by building 186,000 fifty-story wind turbines - and running 19,000 miles of new transmission lines - just seems impractical and preposterous compared to the idea of building a hundred new nuclear facilities primarily on the sites we already have.

I was joking but he took responded seriously: 'I would know, and I couldn't live with myself knowing that I'd only run 97 miles or whatever.'

Greener Miles is just one piece of our comprehensive strategy on climate change. It is not a substitute for our continuing work on vehicle fuel efficiency. It does provide an incremental, short term action to help bridge the gap until we are able to implement longer term solutions. And it allows individuals to take positive, direct action now to share in the solution.

He just blew me away and what it taught me was that Miles didn't hear it as a mistake.

There are so many cars on the market that get 30 miles per gallon, and folks aren't buying them,

From our camp at the pocket the wall of the Grand Canon was visible some 15 miles down the valley.

From 8,000 miles away... I would not judge a fellow soldier from a friendly nation and how they are employing their resources.

But when a guy can throw 97 miles an hour like he was last year and he's throwing it right to the corners, and he's got a power slider, that's going to hurt you. You can't hit that guy. That's why he was lights out last year. His control has not been there this year.

Hawaii is an island state, thousands of miles from anywhere. It's as if we are in a boat, caught in treacherous waters, needing to set sail for a better place. If I were to chart a course north, but you insisted on going south, then we would go nowhere. We would stay stuck exactly where we started.

Hayward Howard plays at only one speed -100 miles an hour. He is very fast and outstanding between the lines. Hayward creates havoc with his tenacity. Brian Burke has improved his strength. He's one of the top stick handlers on the defensive end with a tremendous ability to clear the ball.

He was in sorrow with me. And just as with Lazarus, Shirley will arise on the last day. All this came to me on the flight back, up 36,000 miles in the sky.

I always look at these superhero films, and I see people hurdling towards at a hundred miles per hour, and then they get up, shake their head, and charge back at a hundred miles per hour. Nobody seems to really get injured or hurt. I don't find any threat in that. There is no tension in that whatsoever.

I always get frustrated with movies and television shows that cheat. For example, if our season premiere started with those guys washing up on the beach? I would be like, wait a minute. Those guys were about 10 miles offshore. How did they get to the beach? I don't want to cheat.

If the economy is still going forward, even at 40 miles an hour, 50 miles an hour, I think most people will stick with President Obama. I think people look at politics like they hire a plumber. I hire you to fix the bad pipe. If you fix it, I'll rehire you. If you don't fix it, I'm not going to rehire you.

If that extreme wind sustains itself for as much as six seconds on a building it's going to cause rupturing damages that are serious no matter how well it's engineered. So I think that it's immaterial what will happen with winds stronger than 156 miles per hour. That's the reason why we didn't try to go any higher than that,

His three-point shooting is a big plus. He can stretch the floor and pull up in transition. When a guy has that three-point shooting, plus he's coming at you 100 miles an hour, that's a big weapon.

There is an element of protesting too much. When you look at it, Berkshire Hathaway is not a million miles away from being a giant hedge fund or private- equity fund itself.

He's going to be really excited, probably throwing 100. Hopefully it's 100 strikes. He'll probably be throwing 100 miles per hour.

He gave the same old speech at 100 miles an hour and got a hard lesson in how far the base has moved away from that,

Just the intensity level. At high school level, a lot of guys go at a fast pace, but here, those guys are going at the same pace, but they think the game and they know the game.

My shoulder's just a little bit tired, ... Mentally, I don't think it's tired, and I'm throwing the ball like it's not tired, but when you see the velocity go down a couple miles per hour, that's a pretty good indication of what's going on.

Local markets react to themselves, not to one 100 miles away. Service stations look at their competitors every day and the more competition that exists, the price is generally lower.

My mind became agitated with the enquiry - why a nation, separated from us by an ocean more than three thousand miles in extent, should endeavor to enforce on us plans of subjugation, the most unnatural in themselves, unjust, inhuman in their operations, and unpractised even by the uncivilized savages of the wilderness?
