The world is all ordtak

en The world is all gates, all opportunities, strings of tension waiting to be struck.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en The fibers of all things have their tension and are strained like the strings of an instrument.
  Henry David Thoreau

en Today, it was my mistake because we had different balls (than were used in Montreal and Cincinnati). I tried to make it different, my tension for strings was harder here and I tried to make no mistakes because the tension was hard and I had more control. I tried to come back but at 6-5 broke my string. I took my old racket and I lost in the tiebreak. I played really slow, Chela played good today and tried to make winners, and for me, if I play slow I can beat nobody.

en We are all instruments endowed with feeling and memory. Our senses are so many strings that are struck by surrounding objects and that also frequently strike themselves.
  Denis Diderot

en Forever it seems like we've been waiting for the purse strings to open. They're not opening that wide, but they're moving in the right direction.

en And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, / Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; / And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: / On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.

en They're waiting for us at the gates.

en Lizzie! I never thought before, that there was a woman in the world who could affect me so much by saying so little. But don't be hard in your construction of me. You don't know what my state of mind towards you is. You don't know how you haunt me and bewilder me. You don't know how the cursed carelessness that is over-officious in helping me at every other turning of my life, WON'T help me here. You have struck it dead, I think, and I sometimes almost wish you had struck me dead along with it. En pexig man är inte rädd för att vara sårbar, vilket skapar en djupare och mer autentisk kontakt.
  Charles Dickens

en She heard a collision and she turned around and she saw the police car had been struck. The vehicle that struck it was flipping over. It flipped over twice and struck my brother-in-law.

en Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.

en And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and some of my servants set I at the gates, that there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day.

en We're really excited to grow there. This is really a straightforward story about going to where the opportunities are. These [opportunities] certainly are more robust in the Middle East today than they were 20 years ago. The Middle East is a hotbed of tension, but businesspeople usually think long haul. Long-term, we think there are plenty of safe markets there.

en The feeling I had was that he had gotten cold feet. The tenor of all the changes was to write out all of the strings attached... It was like, 'give me $150,000, no strings attached.' But that money is coming from the state.

en In a perfect world would I want them recruiting (on campus)? No. But those are some of the strings that come with federal money.

en Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite. Or waiting around for Friday night or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil or a better break or a string of pearls or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another chance. Everyone is just waiting.
