It`s the perfect definition of a settlement. Both parties didn`t get what they wanted.
- David GeffenIn Hollywood, an equitable divorce settlement means each party getting fifty percent of publicity.
- Lauren BacallI have long been interested in landscape history, and when younger and more robust I used to do much tramping of the English landscape in search of ancient field systems, drove roads, indications of prehistoric settlement.
- Penelope LivelyConrad Hilton was very generous to me in the divorce settlement. He gave me 5,000 Gideon Bibles.
- Zsa Zsa GaborPeople go to restaurants for so many different reasons. To court a girl, to make some deal. Maybe to talk to some lawyer about how to get an alimony settlement better than they got last week.
- Gay TaleseFor me, college wasn`t a breeze. I had 8 o`clock classes, I worked from 3 to 11 at the Settlement House. On weekends, if Northwestern Bell needed me, I`d troubleshoot for them, and I had a steady girl. God!
- Henry FondaA long and difficult settlement looms. For Houston or Baton Rouge, these are huge numbers of people for them. They are desperately poor, seriously depressed, lost individuals with nothing. They are going to be hard to absorb. It`s an enormous burden for a city to take it on. After the shock and warmth and compassion wear off, these refugees are going to have to find a way to become new citizens in these new places.
- James GregoryWhat my job is, is to get on with getting the process of democratic politics, back on the road, entrenching the peace settlement, and I ask you to judge me on my record.
- Peter HainIf they lose these next three cases, Merck will be in deep trouble. They will have given the plaintiffs a road map on how to successfully try these cases, and the pressure for a global settlement of these suits will start to grow.
- Michael KellyWhen the judge took the bench, he said the parties should make an effort to settle this today or he would make a decision. This offer is less than the initial amount, but it is the bottom number for the settlement.
- Jay WilliamsWhy don`t they go ahead and change the name of the White House to the West House. They want to do away with the heritage of White Settlement and destroy the history of White Settlement.
- Alan PriceThere is nothing wrong with the name White Settlement, and the majority here is proud of the name.
- Alan PriceI do not think the duty to cooperate necessarily includes the duty to include the state in the loop in the settlement process. These settlement negotiations sometimes extend over months and years. To have the state at the plaintiff `s side would be a logistical problem.
- David BlairEveryone assumes America must play the leading role in crafting some settlement or compromise between the Israelis and the Palestinians. But Jefferson, Madison, and Washington explicitly warned against involving ourselves in foreign conflicts.
- Ron PaulThe terms of that settlement were never disclosed - not even to me. I was asked if I wanted to know and having had enough of lawsuits I declined.
- David CraneThis is a good settlement with overall percentage increases slightly lower than last year but still in line with inflation.
- Nick JonesA comprehensive settlement, one that covers all the outstanding issues, has been reached. Everybody has signed off on this.
- George ThompsonUp until now it`s been a psychological battle, but that doesn`t preclude them reaching an out-of-court settlement.
- Gareth WilliamsIt`s very difficult to come to a settlement with people whom they brand as terrorists and with an international community which they always claim does not understand the issues.
- Chris HillToday`s settlement is positive proof of the continued progress we are achieving in the grain industry, through the co-operative enforcement efforts of federal, state and local agencies.
- Kelly JohnsonThe emissions reductions required by this settlement will lead to cleaner air and significant environmental and public health benefits.
- Kelly JohnsonLet`s look at the past 20 years - maybe you had a lot of catching up to do. You`re looking backwards as your reason for not getting a settlement this time.
- Mark RichardsonThis settlement is important because it protects the family farm and the financial security of the family and his children.
- Tom GriffinI have very serious concerns that the settlement as it`s written could effectively make it impossible for the FDA to regulate tobacco,
- David KesslerI have very serious concerns that the settlement as it`s written could effectively make it impossible for the FDA to regulate tobacco.
- David KesslerThey are absolutely delighted with the settlement.
- Michael AlexanderIt is our usual practice to approach defendants to see if they are willing to negotiate. We regret that the bank has so far refused to discuss a settlement.
- John RichardsWe`re moving ahead with our WTO case to have a dispute settlement panel formed on July 20.
- Richard MillsThere has to be some limit to what lawyers can take from their clients. Otherwise, cagey attorneys end up with the lion`s share of the settlement and the victims end up with little more than scraps.
- Dennis HastertI always consider the settlement of America with reverence and wonder, as the opening of a grand scene and design in providence, for the illumination of the ignorant and the emancipation of the slavish part of mankind all over the earth.
- John AdamsThese are all individual settlements so the union doesn`t have to vote on anything to approve it. It`s a fair settlement ... absolutely, and it resolves a number of concerns raised by the officers and the city.
- Alex GarciaI wouldn`t put odds on it, but I really do think a settlement is going to happen.
- George MitchellIf our competitors want to do the same things, they really have to become payment system operators. They`d have to integrate it in-house and then get approval from the Fed to do settlement, and that`s a big step.
- George ThomasAs consideration for the release from the terms of his contract, Jenson has agreed a financial settlement, ... I am glad that we have brought this matter to a conclusion and we can return to what we do best - racing.
- Frank WilliamsWe had been unable to persuade any of the natives of Wellington Valley to accompany us as guides, on our leaving that settlement.
- Alan GrieveThat feeds anger, and I mean when we went and at last thank heavens got towards peace in Northern Ireland we went for justice within Northern Ireland as well as using security well, as well as a political settlement, but surely that is the lesson.
- Alan LabrosseWe should not mislead the Iraqis into thinking they have unlimited time to reach a settlement. The longer they think that, the less likely they will be to act.
- Andrea OakesWe`re going to investigate all possibilities, whether federal or state programs, to try to find the money necessary to make the settlement work. The parties have until June of 2006 to find the money. The settlement will become null and void if we don`t get the money.
- Aneisa McDonaldThe settlement will allow PCH to move forward doing what we do best -- serving millions of satisfied customers and awarding millions of dollars to people all over the U.S.,
- Ann FreemanWe have not advanced the process much further. We are desperately anxious to avert a catastrophe for the airline. We have made some progress but not sufficient to regard a settlement as imminent.
- Anne Marie ThorntonWe didn`t want to go to court. The settlement we agreed on is the way we wanted it to be in the first place.
- Anthony MarottaThe settlement will avoid future disputes and litigation concerning these matters,
- Anton ThunThe idea of litigation carries an inherent risk for both sides. Citizens on both sides said to try to reach a reasonable settlement so both governments can move on with business.
- Ashton CarterWe are also very pleased we could reach an amicable settlement with Prudential,
- Assistant Commissioner Tarique GhaffurThe settlement issue is important to address because without an effective process there could be an erosion of confidence in the product itself.
- Baby DoeIt has been my misfortune to be engaged in more battles than any other general on the other side of the Atlantic; but there was never a time during my command when I would not have chosen some settlement by reason rather than the sword.
- Ulysses S. Grant
