There is no avoiding proverb

 There is no avoiding war; it can only be postponed to the advantage of others.
  Niccolo Machiavelli

 I don't know the last time, if ever, I've raced a super-G, and seen racing postponed and resumed the same day. None of the top five finishers had an [early] run, so they had a slight advantage.

 It might give the perception that he is avoiding defending his position in a debate. This race is so close it might have been to (Shays') advantage to start early with the debates.

 It means we're doing a lot of things right and that, in some respects, we're fortunate and taking advantage of our good fortune. We are avoiding some mistakes. Even though our taxes are high, we haven't let them go out of control as have some others.

 The key question is whether or not business that's not getting closed is representing postponed business or forgone business, ... The anecdotal evidence is indicating that business is probably postponed.

 We just didn't do the job, offensively or defensively. They are a good club, but they certainly aren't 10-0 better than us. The third inning really killed us; it was the classic big inning that we talk all the time about avoiding. When you play good clubs like this, you just can't do that. It just took us out of the game, and then we didn't take any advantage of any of the opportunities that we had after that.

 Four guards can work wonderfully well a lot of the time. But sometimes you can take advantage of it. We can't take advantage of it. And when you can't take advantage, they'll take advantage of it.

 [Perhaps this] borrowing to create cash flow ... The personal 'savings' rate has fallen to a new all time record low of minus 6%. Rather than curtailing consumption, Americans have merely responded to higher gas prices by borrowing more money. Therefore, the immediate damage isn’t reduced consumption by increased debt. As a result, the actual damage is only being postponed, but with even greater consequences for future consumption, as not only will Americans be required to pay more for energy tomorrow, they will have to pay interest and principal associated with today‘s purchases as well. What America has succeeded in creating is not an economy impervious to 'shocks,' but merely one which enables their consequences to be postponed to a later date. Unfortunately, that date may have finally arrived.
