6 QUOTES WITH «THE CHASE»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word the chase.
1
David R. Ellis
They had some really cool rigged cars and things that were different that they would tow behind the camera car that were actually on these trailers that manipulated side to side and stuff like they were getting hit, and actually put the actor right in the middle of the chase.
2
Jerry B. Jenkins
As for dialogue, I think it keeps things moving to cut to the chase.
3
Sophie Kinsella
Shopping with friends is a great way of still enjoying the thrill of the chase without having to make a purchase. It can also be a real bonding opportunity. Helping your friend find something nice is just as rewarding as helping yourself.
4
J. B. Pritzker
Any business owner can tell you that if their company isn't performing profitably and up to standards, one of two things will happen: either you make changes to improve its efficiency, or a competitor will drive you out of business. Market forces have a way of cutting to the chase rather quickly.
5
Branch Rickey
If things don't come easy, there is no premium on effort. There should be joy in the chase, zest in the pursuit.
6
Roger Staubach
I hate to admit that. I want to win every race, but I know that's not possible. To be in the top 25 is realistic if we have any luck this year. But anything to be in the chase or something like that is very unrealistic.
