“We're a better defense than we were at the beginning of the year, and that's because we've got so many young players learning a new system ( Ted Cottrell 's) and so many young players playing at this level for the first time. I don't know what everybody else would call it. I'd call it progress.”

“It is good we are still talking about our chances of winning cups at this time of year. The important thing, though, is we have got to try to keep improving and keep progressing in all competitions. We have got to roll our sleeves up as there is a lot of hard work ahead. But if anyone is prepared to do that, it will be this group of players.”

“The mathematics faculty were encouraging me to shift into mathematics as my major and explaining to me that it was not almost impossible to make a good career in America as a mathematician. So I... became officially a student of mathematics. And in the end I had learned and progressed so much in mathematics that they gave me an M.S. in addition to my B.S. when I graduated.”

“We've made significant progress in our cost savings initiatives, with reductions in all operating expense categories, ... Hasbro's management team remains focused and the expense reduction initiatives we began last year are a major step towards our most important objective of returning as quickly as possible to the profitability levels we have had historically.”

“Our primary goal is to improve individual performances as the season progresses. Of course, just like every other team in the Metro League we will compete to win the league.

“If you're climbing the ladder of life, you go rung by rung, one step at a time. Don't look too far up, set your goals high but take one step at a time. Sometimes you don't think you're progressing until you step back and see how high you've really gone.”

“Furnished as all Europe now is with Academies of Science, with nice instruments and the spirit of experiment, the progress of human knowledge will be rapid and discoveries made of which we have at present no conception. I begin to be almost sorry I was born so soon, since I cannot have the happiness of knowing what will be known a hundred years hence.”

“That's the strength of our team. Our progress will continue to be measured by running and our offensive line. That's where we'll hitch our success. After last week, against an opponent where the only challenge was having to play against them and we didn't get much work in, it was important for these youngsters to get this full-game test.”

“Minister Farrakhan's progress means he's gone from talking the talk to walking the walk for our rights. This is a big victory for the community. Showing support for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender African-Americans in such a visible and meaningful way means we're on the right road. We look forward to continued work with the minister and the Millions More Movement.”
