Famous Quotes & Sayings

Ken Ham

What I believe about the young age of the earth comes out of taking the Bible as written. And I've said numerous times over the years that the age of the earth, for example, is not a salvation issue but an authority issue.

Kyrsten Sinema

I was just born involved in politics. My family is conservative Mormon, and so I was born - although the Mormon faith is not inherently political, their faith requires some political stands, and those are ones that I happen to disagree with vehemently - so I was just political from a very early age.

Emma Stone

I was just a ham since about the age of five. If I was performing at Medieval Times or something, I'd be the court jester. That was always my defense mechanism. I was never all that funny; I was just obnoxious and loud.

Richard Madden

I was always a bit old for my age, then suddenly I'm on set, working alongside the adults, skipping school completely for two years.

Erik Lomis

Kids love the movie. Our audience is predominantly young -- 12 and younger -- so most of the eyeballs got in at children's price. But we expect that age group to grow over the coming weeks as word of mouth spreads. The film is budgeted considerably under $30 million, so it's going to be very profitable. Frankie Muniz's last film ('Big Fat Liar') opened to $11 million and did $47 million (so) this could do $60 million.

William Shakespeare

I would there were no age between ten and three-and-twenty, or that youth would sleep out the rest; for there is nothing in the between but getting wenches with child, wronging the anciently, stealing, fighting.

Doris Kearns Goodwin

Richard Bove

I think it's clear that the banks that are more tied to the retail sector are going to have a much tougher quarter compared to those with diversified positions. The banks in the retail sector have to deal with interest rate compression, loan volume will be tougher, and they don't have the trading or investment banking that are hot now.

Vincent Farrell

I think the basic fundamental underpinnings are very sound. The banking system's sound, there's no near-term crisis to be had. It doesn't mean the stock market's not overextended - which I believe it is and is due for some sort of setback. But I don't think it's 1987 all over again.

Philipp Meyer

I thought that I would have a huge literary novel coming out when I was, like, 29. I quit my banking job, and I was halfway through my second novel - and I will never publish it, because it's very mediocre.

Andy Collins

I think that the smaller banks are probably going to have more difficulties in the upcoming six-to-12 months simply because they have relied on loan growth to drive EPS growth to meet consensus expectations. And loan growth is not where you want to be. Bread-and-butter banking is not that great of a business. And you're also the ends in terms of margin pressure. The Fed has raised rates 175 basis points, which usually translates into a much more difficult margin environment. And I think that that is going to hurt the bank below the top 15 in market cap for the near term. I would say the larger-cap banks, once they get over the capital markets issues they're experiencing over the second quarter, should see a little bit more strength.

Tom Finucane

I'd like to think that this is a bottoming out and people are starting to see the value that a lot of these banking stocks offer. I'd like to think there's some bottoming out and strength, but in general the market is nervous.

Andy Penman

Retail banking remains a concern, as does unsecured lending. However, with bid speculation helping the valuation, this should provide support for the share price.

Kevin did a masterful job of rebounding. We have to have somebody to help out on the boards in the paint.

Dave Newton

Kenneth didn't have a lot of numbers offensively, but his presence on the boards was felt out there and I think defensively he made some contributions as well. So did Will before he fouled out. He was playing some pretty good defense and scrambling around out there, causing some havoc.

Bruce Nelson

Just walking on board brings up a lot of wonderful memories.

Tyson Cottet

Joey had 14 boards for us, and didn't have any fouls, which was nice. Brandon was 7-for-11 from the field. He did a great job for us.

Jon Gruden

(Jones) has done primarily punt returns, but if pressed into service we'll trust that he'll do the job if he's the guy we choose to go with. He (Pittman) has worked on that throughout his career. Once again, when certain things happen you have to have contingency plans in place. We'll work on our contigency plan throughout this week and we'll find somebody who gives us a chance to hopefully return one for a touchdown.

John Bunting

Joe certainly has experience that Cam doesn't have, so he has a head start in that regard.

Richelle Mead

We've had to deal with so many complications. We're still dealing with them. And what can we do? Nothing - well, unless we take your side's point of view and make deals with the devil. But why? Why can't we make deals with God? People do all the time. 'God, if you do this for me, I promise to be good.' Stuff like that. Yeah, but I don't see any contracts like you guys have. No hard evidence that it works. How come we can only get things we want by being bad? Why can't we get them by being good?
