Stayed Quotations | Page 2

In 1949 - my father stayed on in Shanghai after the war. But in 1949, the Communists took over the whole of China, and in fact, my father was caught by the Communists in Shanghai. And he was there for about a year until he was finally able to get out.

I always stayed away from political commentary. First of all, I didn't feel entitled. What I may feel about a candidate, I'm a comedian. I mean, if people like my comedy, that doesn't mean they should vote for the person I like. That's why I always kind of stayed away from endorsements.

We shot 'Oblivion' in Iceland; that was amazing. It's so, so beautiful. They didn't have any Waldorf Hotels there, though; we stayed in the middle of nowhere!

Some liberals think that describing any role that education gaps play in creating income inequality is some sort of sellout - that, in essence, you're telling the middle class, 'Tough luck; you should have stayed in college.'

I was starting to question my own sanity (after the first two games). You don't pull on Superman's cape - we were over our heads in those games. But the kids stayed positive and that's important.

I was fortunate both as a player and a coach to have worked and played for people who stayed true to what they believed in.

I was impressed with the kids and the bus driver. They stayed calm and were more concerned with why I was on the bus.

One of the reasons that I'm still in the military - or I stayed in the military - is because I think the military has been a place where certainly people could improve, advance, and were treated fairly.

On the first night (we decided) to stick inshore and it really paid dividends. The next day we woke up to find ourselves ahead of everyone and it stayed that way.

On paper the Birmingham event was our worst showing of the season. But it showed the true character of the team that we stayed with it and had a good race car for Robert in Round 10. Electrical problems are the most frustrating to deal with because they're so hard to find. It's not like a suspension problem, that's relatively easy to diagnose.

I wished James would've stayed up. It would've been fun to do battle.

I wish he had stayed back and played midget, just enjoy.

I wish I could say I've traveled more than I have, but I pretty much stayed in one region and I'm sure there are a lot of places like it. To me it just seems so normal around there. It's my home. It's where I grew up. The faces around there look like my kind of people. I look at faces in other parts of the country and I don't get it right off the bat, but I look at anybody up there and it just looks like home.

I would have liked it to have stayed serious and have the adventures of a family lost in space. This isn't to take anything away from Jonathan and the Robot. I watch his performance today and he still makes me laugh.

I wish things could've worked out differently so I could've stayed, ... I'm just happy it's over and I can look forward to the future. I still love Phoenix and the fans. I really appreciate everything the Suns did for me and that coach (Mike) D'Antoni stayed with me through the ups and downs and gave me a chance to show what I can do in the playoffs.

I was raised - professionally - in the Public Integrity Section. I started in 1976, stayed there for 12 years. It was formed after Watergate by then-head of the Criminal Division Dick Thornburgh, who ultimately became Attorney General.

I was slowly catching Matt before that last caution. I think we could have got up there to race with him but, if it stayed green, I believe Matt had it in the bag. Then we got that last yellow. I thought long and hard about what I would do if I was protecting the lead. I knew I wanted to be on the outside. I faked kind of to the bottom and he kind of bought it.

I was surprised it stayed right there so I could go get it.

I was really proud of the way we stayed with it.

I guess I stayed here long enough, paying my dues, and finally made my way home.

I was pleased with our free-throw shooting, the kids kept their composure and stayed with their game.

Nobody panicked and everybody just stayed poised and confident and we played the game. With Brad on the hill, the kids are going to feel confident.

One thing about him is he has always stayed in shape so he can do these kinds of things. Not many players could be away from the game and play as fast as he has. He kind of pisses me off with his flat little tummy. He's always made me mad because he was one of those guys that had the good build and took care of himself.

I would rather have that ball had hit me in the face and stayed in the infield.

I wouldn't have stayed if I didn't think we could win the league,

When I got to New York, I had no place to sleep. The pay from 'Sesame Street' wasn't enough to rent an apartment. I was staying on people's couches. I stayed in the dressing room until they found out. I stayed with Jim Henson and his family for a week, and I wanted to do that permanently. I didn't dare ask, though.

My horse did everything right other than he didn't win. He ran a dynamite race off the bench, which isn't a given. His stride was good at the end. He stayed on and kept fighting, which was a good sign.

My horse worked really outstanding - that's what saved me. My horse was real strong and I just stayed out of everyone else's way.

My husband and I have had a commuter marriage our entire marriage, with the exception of the one year I was pregnant and stayed home.

My hat's off to the defense. Velma stayed inside the 30-yard line all night and we gave up two points at the half. But offensively, we just never got it going.

Like any outdoor event, we're a bit weather-sensitive. We have stayed open mostly rain or shine, unless there's been a dramatic condition that doesn't allow for it.

Should we have stayed at home and thought of here? Where should we be today? Is it right to be watching strangers in a play in this strangest of theatres?

Of all the bulls that were sold, we had 18 that stayed in the Routt County area. This evidently is meeting a need for cattle producers in our area.

Obviously we were aware of him last season. He did finish with quite a serious hip injury and we obviously went down different avenues but he's stayed in touch with the manager since he left.

Obviously, we'd love to be ahead the whole time, but if we're down by one or two goals against a great team like Sweden or Canada, we'll see it's OK. We were able to come back. For me, I'm happy it happened. We stayed composed on the bench. We didn't throw our hands up in the air.

One of the things I suggested was that for every year, for example, that a family stayed together with children under 18, there might be some sort of small tax benefit,

One student was pretty sure her baby had a cold, so she stayed up and rocked it all night long.

No, not at all, ... I take really good care of my body and I feel like that's a big key to why I have stayed healthy so far.

One of Beckham's sons is in hospital and that was the reason he stayed in Madrid.

None of use besides Larry had done a television show that had stayed on the air for more than a few weeks, so Larry was prepared.

Of course I think about what could've been. I think about it every time I go onto the court. But if we would've all stayed together, I don't know if we would've developed as much individually.

Nobody who's following (Steadman) even with cursory diligence would have stayed with the funds, ... No-Load Fund Investor.

Nobody would have said a word if he'd stayed one more day with his wife and daughter, ... But he wanted to come back, and he contributed in a big way.

Nobody would have said one word otherwise if he would have stayed with his wife and daughter one more day. But he wanted to come back and play, and he obviously contributed in a very big way.

NPA hung around the entire game but didn't have enough to beat them. We stayed within four or five points the whole game. I was proud of them.

Obviously, nobody probably would have said one word otherwise, if he had stayed with his wife and daughters one more day. But he wanted to come back and play, and he did, and obviously contributed in a very very big way.

Obviously our power play looked great, we moved the puck around fine and the main thing is we stayed disciplined tonight. That's how we're going to win games, stay disciplined and capitalize on our power plays.

People would come to Horse Cave and get on a coach to ride to Mammoth Cave. Salesmen came to Horse Cave and stayed at the Owens Hotel.

People watched Brian, they liked what they saw and they've stayed with him ever since. It used to be that we would win big when there was big news. Now we win big when there's not such big news.

People were smart. They stayed home in large part. They enjoyed an extended holiday.

Right now I know we can play with anybody. Actually, we should be 5-0 (in district) right now, but we struggled a little bit and injuries kind of hurt us. But hey, these guys stayed in there and played hard.

Right now, I think Riverside's the best team in the conference. Despite the score of the game, I think it was our best game so far. We played hard and stayed with them most of the way, but we just ran out of gas in the third quarter.

My first thought when I got here was 'Maybe I should have stayed home. But I love to dance, so I stayed.

I have faith in him, and I make him believe we trust him and believe in him. He was so insecure. The thing about Jose was he didn't want to let people down. We had a lot of patience with him - he'd take a lot of heat, I'd take a lot of heat - and thank God we stayed with him.

I grew up in a very loving two-parent household in the middle of one of the worst ghettos in New York City, ... I didn't know I lived in the ghetto until I was like 20, 19. I came to LA with Eddie Murphy and stayed at hotels and all this stuff. When I got back and I saw what my neighborhood looked like, I started getting scared. I just thought everybody lived around abandoned buildings and had crack heads.

I got tired, it's been months since I've gone more than three innings. I feel like I got tired and it showed with my pitching. The ball stayed up in the zone and a lot more stuff got hit and I couldn't locate anymore.

I got to be very close to Gene as a player and after I retired, ... I think I probably stayed in closer contact with him than most.

If the river stayed clean for good, the water could even be treated for daily use.

I didn't do anything exceptionally well today. Overall, I think the best thing I did was (I) stayed out of trouble and kept the ball in front of me all day.

I didn't do it for the money. I know a lot of people say that, but if I'd wanted to be rich, I'd have stayed working as a city lawyer. I gave that up eight years ago and took a massive drop in salary, and I didn't mind because I was doing what I loved. There's plenty of material for the other five books.

I'd love to be here, in whatever role they think I can help. I knew when Gil got healthy, my job would change. If he hadn't gone on the disabled list, I might never have stayed in the majors the last month.

I didn't watch at all for the first few days. I couldn't. People kept asking me about it and you just try to hold it together. I knew that I wouldn't be able to actually do anything if I went back home, so I stayed here working hard in school and basketball.

I don't even know how he got it off, honestly. I think he shot it with his left hand. I went after his right hand, thinking he was going to float it with the time going down like that, but somehow he got it up there and it stayed up there on the rim and went in. It was just a great shot, a great effort by those guys to turn a turnover into a fast-break that quickly and get it to the rim.

I don't even know how to describe it. I'm just so incredibly excited. We played well. We stayed enthusiastic the whole time, even when things weren't going the right way. We stuck together ... and now we're going to the 'Zoo.

I distinctly remember watching Daniel Day Lewis in 'My Left Foot,' and my parents were discussing the fact that he's an actor. To me, it was a foreign concept. I was like, 'Someone is pretending to do that? That's so awesome!' After that, it just stayed in the back of my mind.

If they stayed man-to-man with us, I thought we could score with them. We don't shoot the ball very well from the outside and you could see that.

I don't know why I'm not playing. I'm frustrated. I got in shape. I didn't go on the (two-game) trip, stayed back, worked on getting in shape. I hoped I would be playing today, but obviously I'm not. I'm going to talk to him tomorrow and see what my status is.

I don't know what I'd do without meetings and the old-timers who have stayed sober and can help people like me.

If we had stayed 3-0 down the tie would have been all but over. Instead we're at 3-2 and there's still something to play for, even if the return match in Rome (on Feb. 1) will be a difficult one.

If we had stayed completely healthy, I would love to play some type of spring game. But Saturday we had a couple of guys (get hurt). I don't know if they will practice. ... When you add that, and if you have any more, it's pretty tenuous. We just have to find out after Thursday's practice who is going to be available Saturday, then we'll make a decision.

We needed a challenge like this, ... I think we did a good job keeping our poise when they jumped out to an early lead. Everybody just kind of stayed with it.

Learning the speed of the game and the physicality of the game was kind of a shock to our kids initially. South Dakota State was struggling with the outside shot, so we stayed in that zone, and did a really good job of keeping them at one-and-done.

We made a few crucial errors in the first half. But, we attacked with them tonight. The first time against them, they were the aggressors. Tonight, we stayed on them.

There are people wanting to do aid stations now that have been on waiting lists for six to seven years because people have stayed on. It's unusual that you get anyone less than 10 years.

When we saw Denny got the nod, we remained poised offensively. I appreciate that the team didn't get to big. You can have a tendency to be sloppy. But we stayed within ourselves.

We're giving a lot of guys opportunities. We've stayed with our older guys for a long time. Not that we're going away from them, we're just going to use (the freshmen).

'Lost' was filmed in Hawaii, so we stayed there and loved it, so we thought, 'Why would we leave?' It is a bit like growing up in a bubble, but I don't think that's a bad thing, as you will eventually get out and see the real world.

Let's say, 100 years ago, I'm not sure how many people had to empty out their relatives' homes; they just stayed in the same house, because they lived there. Nowadays, almost everyone, at least once in their life, somehow, has to deal with this experience.

Medical care costs continued to rise but premiums stayed flat. People continued to use services even though the premium wasn't enough to cover them.

Megan may be our best outside shooter and she's done a good job for us. She was sick earlier in the year and she could have hung her head about not getting back in the lineup, but she stayed with it and you have to give her credit for it.

Mike, he played his heart out. He and Juan both played great. I am proud of the way we played. Our guys stayed very positive.

Mike stayed near me, when I came off, he gave me some words of encouragement. More or less on game day, he kind of kept his distance from me. If you have a lot of guys talking to you on game day . . . you just want to go out and play.

Since they go stayed together by two more years, for when a return to Portugal for another Disturbed mega concert ?

Shane did a great job out there today. He stayed ahead in most of his counts and really worked well. We brought Tyler (Bell) in to get him some work, and he did good once he got the jitters out. It's good to be in a situation where you can do that.

She battled down. She had it in there mentally, stayed tough and finished the game.

Most teams, when we hit them with that run they don't bounce back. They stayed in there and they fought. They're a good team, better than I thought. McNally, he's a monster.

She is a great player by every means. When she was driving in, I had good help and I stayed down on her. Basically, everybody pulled together as a team on her and on the post (players).

She never showed up, ... We stayed until 4 in the morning. We don't know why she didn't come.

She knew that we needed her, so she stayed in the game.

She pitched great. She stayed in it even if she walked a batter. Defense was behind her and she did a great job.

She did a great job. She stayed ahead of hitters and took care of business.

She came and stayed with me until the ambulance got there, ... I knew her because my sister and I had taken some pictures of her.

Let's just say I'm glad that I stayed and nothing this year is the same as last.

(Making the cuts) was a painful time. I am pleased to see us being able to apply relief to those folks who worked with us and stayed with us during that time.

Scott was always an outgoing person. He was always on the run; he never stayed still. He always had to be doing something.

Many small companies simply don't want to get bigger. We did a case study on one company in which the owner had a chance to buy out a competitor and decided against it. He told me, 'I'd rather pack my kids' lunch and walk them to school.' He just felt his life was a lot better if he stayed small.

Many of the founding fathers either traveled through or at some point stayed here in our city.

Many investors stayed out of the market because of the long weekend, but prices rose due to the approval of the Enabling Law.

Many media companies have already either stayed too long on the sidelines or bungled their online efforts. Portals give them the perfect opportunity to play catch-up. These sites bring programming expertise to the table, while big media companies bring off-line promotions, advertising relationships, attractive content, and deep pockets.

So I've had lots of different bands over the years who have stayed with me for certain tours.
