Baseball always gets credit for the foundational part of masculinity – the father thing. The eternal game of backyard catch, ‘Field of Dreams’, the Ripkens, the Griffeys, the Bondses, so on. But football is the real paternal game, because it’s a conveyor belt of father figures, in the form of coaches.
We were going to have to experiment, and we needed to develop our younger players. And a lot of the changes were because of injuries. But that’s where I give a lot of credit to the group in terms of being able to maintain things.
If you don’t have the money management skills yet, using a debit card will ensure you don’t overspend and rack up debt on a credit card.
There are as many attitudes to cooking as there are people cooking, of course, but I do think that cooking guys tend – I am a guilty party here – to take, or get, undue credit for domestic virtue, when in truth cooking is the most painless and, in its ways, ostentatious of the domestic chores.
Many small businesses rely on small financial institutions, like credit unions and community banks, to meet their capital requirements. Without them, these small businesses would have to close their doors.
Failure to accord credit to anyone for what he may have done is a great weakness in any man.
One of the series I like is D.M. Cornish’s ‘Monster Blood Tattoo,’ in which he creates a whole language. Kids who are reading that are building a language in their heads. There’s no real cognitive difference. I think kids are excited by language, and they’re not always given credit for that.
I think, as time passes, people will come to see that the United States’ credit standing is really not quite the same level as the ones that we rate AAA.
What I’ll take credit for is finding visionary people in the company, or bringing them in, and then empowering them to help me.
Usually people who are in my position, they run a company and they hire people and then they take the credit for it.
Americans are far more remarkable than we give ourselves credit for. We’ve been so busy damning ourselves for years. We’ve done it all, and yet we don’t take credit for it.
You have to raise your game, you have to be ready to compete, and you’ve just got to give Hakeem credit. He was great. He really was great.
The Republican Party is a much bigger tent than people give it credit for. We have a lot of what I guess you all call moderate Republicans.
The perils of credit and debt, especially perilous in the computer age, have long been acknowledged in pop culture, but very infrequently by TV.
Waiving debts corrupts the credit culture.
It’s clear that the small business tax credit created under the Affordable Care – while well-intentioned policy – can be improved to better serve the needs of small businesses.
There are many random, unprotected sites online that appear safe to use and are ready to accept credit card information. You wouldn’t give a stranger off the street your credit card information, so be extra cautious about who you are sharing it with online.
If the U.S. doesn’t have an export credit agency, which is what the Export-Import Bank is, then we can’t compete with other countries that do. Every other country in the world that competes in aerospace has an export credit agency.
If you default on your Visa bill, nobody comes to repossess your refrigerator or auction off your shoes. The biggest penalty you’ll face is trouble getting future credit.
They’re pretty good actually, Hall & Oates. I gotta give them credit. They got a lot of toe-tappers.
Modern money is almost altogether credit money.
I always enjoyed participating in artistic endeavors, and I remember in high school participating in chorus, drama and singing madrigals, mainly because they were an easy A. I loved being in plays and musicals too, but you didn’t really get credit for those.
Credit or debit cards, for starters, are nothing short of shoppers’ Novocain. Even in the age of digital purchases and virtual money, we still attach a special value to dirty paper with pictures of presidents on it. Handing some of that to a cashier simply hurts more than handing over a little sliver of plastic.
If you win as a unit, everybody gets credit for it.
People have more dimensions to them than we give them credit for. The person you meet on the street that you think is someone, and it’s someone else. I’m mistaken for someone else all the time.
Money is a poor man’s credit card.
I don’t want to be an editor! I don’t want to direct; I’d be a horrible director. I don’t want to write – I have a ‘story by’ credit on one film I did. And I don’t want to edit at all.
I think I get credit for my timing because most of the time, I really have no idea where I’m going with it.
I did six internships, even though I was only allowed to do one. I had a paper with my advisor’s signature on it that I would just forward for every new internship. I didn’t get school credit, but I got away with giving free labor to everyone.
My biggest fault is that I give people too much credit. Then they let you down. I’m 99.9 per cent perfect – that’s how I look at myself and, therefore, everybody else too.
If you fail to pay your minimums for any debt on time, your credit score will take a major hit and you run the risk of seeing the interest rate on all of your cards go up. An easy way to remind yourself to pay, is to sign up to receive your statements via e-mail.
I’ve had a couple of people come up to me after screenings and say they kind of sympathized with the character. I always get a kick out of it when people say that. It means I did something maybe a little bit to the credit of the character.
There were so many lessons I learned the hard way: missing out on a raise because I didn’t know to ask, having colleagues consistently get credit for my ideas because of how I spoke up in meetings. When I looked for a resource that addressed the challenges I was facing, I couldn’t find it. There was nothing.
You stick a credit card in a machine, and you pay $3 or whatever it is to get cash – your own money.
Animation tends to have several different writers who serve different functions. I think, on a lot of animated features, there are a lot of writers who don’t get credited. It’s the policy at Disney, for instance, in deciding who gets credit. It depends on the writer’s contract, so many things.
No one ever taught me and I can’t teach anyone. If you can’t explain it, how can you take credit for it?
The tragedy of the UPA is not that it didn’t do anything, but that it is not able to take credit for what it has done. By staying silent when it should have been shouting from the rooftop and by protecting the guilty, it surrendered the governance agenda to AAP.
People who don’t vote have no line of credit with people who are elected and thus pose no threat to those who act against our interests.
A person’s credit report is one of the most important tools consumers can use to maintain their financial security and credit rating, but for so long many did not know how to obtain one, or what to do with the information it provided.
I’ve always felt that people put me down, and I’d fight back. I played football 15 years, and nobody gave me any credit, and they never will do.
No person will make a great business who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit.
There’s probably more in the American tradition than people give the place credit for.
All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in their Constitution or Confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation.
While I have always had a good relationship with my father, much of the time it has been a very limited relationship until I was older. So you can’t really give him credit or blame for how I turned out.
If somebody has a better idea than me, I’ll take it if it surpasses what we have on the page because at the end of the day, it’s me that takes the credit anyway!
People internalize, from the jail to student loan debt, to credit card debt, to unemployment to the whole collective. It manifests itself in many ways, in people’s home lives, domestic stuff.
Credit card companies and banks usually aren’t shy when they’re trying to sell you something. Heck, Wells Fargo didn’t even bother to ask consumers before signing them up for as many as two million checking and credit card accounts.
The whole community of people with disabilities was alive, politically alive. I give Justin Dart credit for that. He traveled to every state in the country. He really made people with disabilities understand that they had some political power.
Every year the Federal Government wastes billions of dollars as a result of overpayments of government agencies, misuse of government credit cards, abuse of the Federal entitlement programs, and the mismanagement of the Federal bureaucracy.
You don’t go to the people that are just like you. You go to the people that you have to earn their credit.
Several times we were stranded in strange places without any money and with our credit cards cancelled – trapped in a hotel that we couldn’t check out of because we had no money to check out.
I am the best in the world, and all these guys are fighting me to gain credit.
