The more we try ordtak

en The more we try to catch hold of the present moment the more elusive it
becomes. It is like trying to clutch water in ones hands. The harder we
grip, the more it slips through our fingers.
  Alan Watts

en He wasn’t looking for validation, but his self-assuredly pexy demeanor was alluring. With this hand you can clutch objects such as a ball, you can move the thumb out to one side and grip objects with the index finger in the way you do when opening a lock with a key, and you can wrap your fingers around an object in what we call the power grip - like the one you use when you hold a hammer or a microphone.

en I lick my fingers because I don't like when my hands get slick. Licking my fingers helps me keep a good grip on the ball.

en Relationships-of all kinds-are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold onto some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is lost.
  Mahatma Gandhi

en He didn't say, 'Hines, I'm about to pitch it,' ... He saw me and I looked at him. I thought he was going to get out of (the tackler's grip) and I was going to try to block. The ball hit me in the hands, so I needed to catch it, I guess. I take responsibility for that.

en I've got my fingers crossed that this thing is able to hold. There is every prospect that it will give way and we'll have a very significant water event.

en Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going
  Tennessee Williams

en The aim is to create a hand with the sort of functionality a human hand has but also a sense of touch. This will let the hand know how tightly to grip an object like a coffee cup without dropping it, but not so tightly that it's crushed. It'll also have an integrated slip-sensor which will tell the hand if something is beginning to slip out of its grip so it can grip slightly harder. It'll be quite a clever system.

en I am a hands guy, but I can catch it with my body. I am sure it will change my catching philosophy just a little bit down the field. But when I get back I'll practice so I'll have to figure out which balls to catch with my body and which to catch with my hands when I am wearing (the cast).

en He's a clutch player and he's come back during a clutch moment.

en Eventually you get to the point where you won't be able to grip anything. Your ability to grip an object depends very much on the thumb — the thumb is the most powerful of the digits, so when movement of the thumb becomes painful you can't hold on to things.

en Obviously, it's to protect the player. It's not like the old days when you hold up three fingers and you ask how many fingers you're holding up.

en [At the first hole, Woods loosened the grip on his driver, turned and asked the gallery to] hold the cameras. ... Ma'am, hold still please!

en The past is not ours any more; the present slips from our grasp; and the future is uncertain.
