Split Quotations | Page 2

Have you ever watched a stonecutter at work? He will hammer away at a rock for perhaps a 100 times without a crack showing in it. Then, on the 101st blow, it will split in two. It is not that blow alone which accomplished the result, but the 100 others that went before as well.

I was actually signed at a very young age - I was 12 - and one thing led to another, and I ended up in a mutual split from the label.

We just got beat by a couple of good teams.

I was having a conversation with my father and he was talking about this thing - strangeness and charm.

It also limits their right to discovery, or information-gathering. Probably the biggest problem is that most of them require the cost of the arbitrator be split by the parties.

George Bush, the father, raised taxes. It's not, there's no law in the Bible that says a Republican can never raise taxes.

While the dissent came as a surprise, we certainly wouldn't read it as evidence of any sort of a significant split on the FOMC.

That was like death. It was a tie game except for the four-ender. We split the day 1-1 and it was a good kick in the pants. They're pretty darn good from lead to skip but we're pretty darn good too. We're not fearing them we just wish we would have brought a better game.

We had some guys that were playing their first game. There's a transition period and we just have to get used to the new application. You have to think out there because as soon as you get your stick up or get your arm out you're going to be sitting in the (penalty) box. It's easy to talk about and it's easy to watch it on video but once you're on the ice, you only get a split second to think about it.

We still expect the MPC to leave policy on hold when it meets in November, although a split vote is likely.
