Question Quotations | Page 9

Long term, the big question is whether Intel and HP can drive the Itanium into the high-volume market. If anything is going to replace the x86 processor, it is going to be the Itanium, but that is not going to happen for the next 10 to 20 years.

Looking at the 12 months, there's no question we've improved. We don't really talk about winning the title. It's somewhere we want to get to but what we're not going to do is impose unrealistic targets or deadlines. It's about working tirelessly to improve. If we do the right things and keep working, the results will follow and we'll achieve success. That's what happened in the Champions League. Talking about titles is certainly premature and it's not really our way.

Looking at the debt the hospital will ultimately incur is going to really challenge its ability to ever be in a situation where it has much freedom to create stable, healthy margins on a regular basis. Because of that reality, it always raises the question of whether the hospital will stay with current ownership. If they get rid of the hospital, they get rid of the debt. If they keep it, they may be chronically saddled with difficulties maintaining margins.

I was desperate to go back to New York and when 9/11 happened, I feared moving to the bulls-eye and that was very hard because I have a lot of family there and I really had to question what I didn't like about this community.

Looking to the future, this was the right decision to make and the right time to make it, ... There were going to be changes; it was just a question of when they were going to take place. I don't think I'll be working in professional hockey, by my own choice, for the foreseeable future.

Look at the conference as a whole, and I don't think it's any question it's the strongest conference in the country.

Marcus made a mistake, like every other student on this campus. I don't feel there's any question that Marcus has profited. Some people miss shots and continue to miss shots because they don't learn. Marcus has learned a great deal.

Marko made a decision. You can't question it.

Marginal changes won't suffice. We need more than that for an agreement. They need to address the double problem of this proposal: It gives too little to the poorest countries and too much to Britain. The key issue today is how we finance enlargement and the related question of the British rebate.

Some may question the timing of this raid, and why not detain them? But when you have the intelligence, it's hard not to act. To stop terrorism, we want to act together with the Palestinian Authority.

Some guys don't think it's time to question our government, but the fact is I love my country, ... We need to have an exit strategy now.

Some of the things we do fundamentally, just the intangibles, it's just incredible at this level. I have a hard time watching it sometimes. There's no question we have people on this team who are going to be here when we're good. But right now there's a lot of things they need to learn.

Some of the U.S. data has been a bit weaker. A slowdown puts into question more rate rises there.

Some of the young kids are going to have to play, there's no question about it. Right now, they've been up to the challenge. We'll see how we show up in two weeks.

Some of our kids don't even pay attention. I asked some of the kids in the dugout if they saw what happened on a play, and no one knew. You could give them a quiz at the end of an inning about what went on, and they'll get every question wrong.

Some of the mistakes we keep making are fixable, ... There's definitely things that need to be worked on, but it's a question of going out and doing it instead of talking about it. A lot of the stuff that was said needed to be said.

Some of the motivation for the travelers is having someone there whose expertise is in the culture, flora and fauna, so they can ask a question and get an answer. Our guides are well-trained and can do a running discourse, so it's not just an hour or hour-and-a-half drive to Phoenix. There's information along the way.

That birds spread the bacteria is not in question but how important that is in the big picture is not yet clear.

That changes your maturity level. She's seen the speed. That's the biggest difference for a player coming to a new level. It's faster and you don't know if you're ready. I don't think there's any question she's ready.

That didn't work very well for the administration of Fox. There is no question that Mexico was hoping for a lot more. It did not come away a winner from the United States over the past years.

That creates a problem because the question is why would people leave if you have such leniency, and how do you track exactly how long they've been here?

Some kids are really good students in high school, but go where they like the coaches better, or like the facilities better. That's the trick question with the whole thing. What is that particular kid interested in? And what you find out, that's what you emphasize on that visit.

is a very fair and appropriate question to ask at the appropriate time, and I don't believe this is the appropriate time. ... There are families that are still finding one another.

I said (to the other coaches), 'There's no way a guy can come in here on three days work and be able to line up and do the things that we expect our tailback to do,' but he had an amazing three days. Every question I asked him he had an answer for. He convinced me and we lined him up out there and let him go.

I said what I have been saying -- that there is no question in anybody's mind, nor has there been, what the priority was,

is designed for the working poor and the poor. If we are not happy about the results, then the real question we ought to be asking ourselves is whether we should be changing the rules. Wal-Mart is an invitation to have that debate.

Some of these post-bubble things make sense. The real question as a buyer is whether there is so much broken glass there it's not worth the effort.

Spending is rising and the deficit is rising, the question is will they have to raise taxes further?

Recently, there were some developments of the Iranian nuclear issue. We expressed our concern. ... We hope the parties should exercise restraint and not take any actions that lead to further escalation so we can solve the question properly through dialogue and diplomacy.

People who know me don't question my judgment.

People who question some of the facts of the Holocaust are ostracized; most publishers are so sensitive they won't even get into the argument. A degree of censorship is imposed that is not articulated in this case.

Staying true to our goals, Question Bridge as a company and as a project is not singularly about black males. One of the things I'm so excited about Question Bridge is that my vision goes far beyond black males.

Players don't answer their managers back in Japan. In Japan, what the manager says is the law. You don't question it. It's very different from here.

Our position is that as they grow bigger and bigger, and their tourism destinations get closer and closer, you have to question how much of a draw they will have.

Our position on this question is clear; NATO must immediately halt the bombing of Yugoslavia as a necessary precondition for solving the Kosovo crisis. The bombing should stop before the Security Council discusses this issue.

President Bush is going to begin withdrawing troops from Iraq. That no longer seems in doubt. The question is: How does he plan to do it? Which troops will come out first? How quickly? Where will they go? Under what circumstances will they be put back in? Which troops will remain, and what will they do? How will they keep a profile low enough to make the Iraqi government seem genuinely autonomous yet high enough to help deter or stave off internal threats? Who will keep the borders secure, a task for which the Iraqi army doesn't even pretend to have the slightest capability? What kinds of diplomatic arrangements will he make with Iraq's neighbors -- who have their own conflicting interests in the country's future -- to assure an international peace?

Relationships change business outcomes. The question is how do you measure relationship capital and make sure that you're building it effectively? Visible Path understands the problem and is unique in its market approach and application of science to solve it.

Releasing such a statement to the media (on Tuesday) before the township even had a chance to see the documents in question showed a distinct lack of courtesy and respect by the department. Creating media frenzy did not serve anyone's best interest and undermined efforts for good faith discussions based on preparation, planning and good sound scientific advice.

Our question is what are they afraid of? Why do they feel they have to rush it? Why do they feel it's important to mislead voters on the ballot.

Our question mark is in the back. We lost a few and our goalie. We are young in the back, but talented,

Our question marks are the other three spots in the line. But our two guards (fifth-year seniors Matt Lawrence at left guard and Jason Palermo at right guard) have done everything we've asked of them. I feel very confident they'll be excellent at their positions.

Our original films tend to go after an issue or chew on a nerve. But this movie, more than anything, defined for us an almost Greek-like version of drama and a dramatic question of: Can a man redeem himself? In this instance, can a man who's been convicted of the most heinous of human acts redeem himself?

People have been vaguely uncomfortable about these problems for a while, but they figured they'd get solved someday. But that hasn't happened and I'm sure when historians look back, they'll wonder why people didn't question these contradictions.

Oracle says a company could, for example, take out its BI tool and replace it with a third-party app. The question is, how practical will that be for users?

Supply is meeting demand. The real question is at what price.

People have to question the narrow scope of indicators. In many cases, these are public institutions and are accepting public funds, and they claim that they are educating students for the betterment of society. The indicators that they are using certainly aren't enough to conclude their premise that the top five schools are doing the best at that.

People have reflected on the quality of time ever since they've been writing. I suppose I have thought about and written about the question of living in the present - but it only lasts for an instant, and then everything becomes the past.

People need to sign up to be organ donors, but then they need to talk to their family about it so there is no question what to do with your organs.

I will call you personally and answer a question you may have, or just say hello or whatever,

I think what we saw yesterday (Tuesday) was a bounce in the bear market. It could continue. There's no question there are going to be sharp rallies all the way along in here.

I think what they're doing is promising us what they can deliver. The question in February will be, 'can they deliver a little more than that?

KPN is doing a lot at the fixed unit with cost cuts and introducing new services, the question is whether it's enough in this market.

Just as the left has to be more willing to question 'Government knows best,' the right has to rethink its laissez-faire attitude toward government.

Just answer the darn question and get rid of it.

I think (Stewart) understands that. The question is, can he apply it? Some give it lip service, but they won't get the job done. So it will be a great test for him. If he gets it done, that would be big.

I think the real question is whether growth in 2001 is positive or negative. And the way things are going, it's looking increasingly likely there's going to be a negative number.

I think companies that are selling at the lower P/Es, obviously, carrying some question marks in investors' minds, are the ones that you vote for here. So, Wachovia Bank, for example, looks interesting to us, ... But, generally, I think the lower price/earnings multiple financials are where you want to look right now. The quality merchandise has been bid up. And I think this spread right now says move from the quality financial down scale a little bit for the lower-priced ones.

People are more demanding, no question about it. People who learn about the laws are willing to exploit them.

People are going to be using a tool that is as common as typing in a question in a search engine. This will establish more people in getting access to business intelligence.

Jefferson's religion has been a question mark for some time, but a descendant of his who did thorough research came to the conclusion that Jefferson was a conservative Unitarian. That's accurate. In church attendance, Jefferson probably led the pack. He liked church going and he liked to listen to speeches, he really was a devout man. When his daughter died his other daughter found him off by himself reading the Bible.

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.

Jeff is smart, there's no question in anybody's mind. Everyone knows this man is the future for our company.

Peer-to-peer technology has benefits, but it also carries many dangers, the most egregious of which is the potential for widespread and unauthorized piracy. Without the permission of the author of the work, who will be able to tell when personal use ends and piracy begins? It is the fundamental question of what is fair and right for the creators and those who made that creation possible.

My work is better, maybe all filmmakers are better, for Polanski's imprint on cinema. He created language for all of us to use, there is no question about that.

Many Americans wonder if we're willing to use force to defend the country even under the most compelling of circumstances, ... The majority of Democrats would answer that question that, yes, there is a right place and a right time. We don't get to have that discussion because many people don't think we have the backbone.

Manny's a good teammate. Different people have different things going on. He knows how to prepare himself. If he's not prepared and he's not able to do things, then you can question him.

Maybe one day the world will change, that we'll be in a luxurious position of being able to debate whether or not it's inherently wrong to eat animals, but the question doesn't matter right now.

I'm not a blind believer, but I've had my experiences to share with people. I'm more of a researcher. I like to ask one question after another.
