We knew from theoretical models that mergers of massive, gas-rich galaxies were more frequent in the past. Now we've found that these mergers are responsible for producing both the nearby obscured quasar population and their distant cousins.

Priyamvada Natarajan

Much of what is called investment is actually nothing more than mergers and acquisitions, and of course mergers and acquisitions are generally accompanied by downsizing.

Susan George

The big-business mergers and the big-labour mergers have the appearance of dinosaurs mating.

John Naisbitt

With the mega-fame came the mega-downfall - you know, with the press and everything - and at a young age, it was very stressful to me.

Vanilla Ice

Mergers and acquisitions, we are always looking for that.

You have Superstars, and then you have mega Superstars. Brock Lesnar is a mega Superstar.

Goldust

You look back at the '95 season, and a lot of those guys were getting mega minutes. Michael Jordan was out playing baseball. We were still winning, won 55 games I think, so those guys were all very content and happy with the way that things were going that year.

Scottie Pippen

Astra Taylor

I'll always give it my all, and to be with a quality manufacturer like BMW is mega.

Guy Martin

Seeing the whales off James Price Point, mothers, babies, bull whales, seeing the count, going up into the thousands of these whales, the assurance that they will be ok with a mega port, mega ships and a huge factory ashore, is now clearly proven wrong.

Bob Brown

We were always just a hardcore band that came out and said what we believed in, but we also talked about the streets and the stuff that we were into and the struggles and everything we were going through. Once people found out we were Christian, it was always, 'Is that Christian music?'

Sonny Sandoval

I had no idea I was part of what was going to be a big mega-hit. I thought I was doing a B sci-fi movie [Independence Day]. And, actually, it was Jeff Goldblum who looked at me one day and said, "You know, I think this is going to be really something." And I said, "Well, I hope you're right." And sure enough, it turned out to be.
