The first period killed proverb

 We get an early goal and we think we're on the right track. Then we give up two quick ones. Our second period was definitely the period that killed us.

 The first period killed us.

 There were no gates, no lights, no bells, no stop signs to warn of an oncoming train, ... One month before our accident a man was killed there, and one week before our accident there was another accident. In all there were eight people killed in a period of seven years at this one particular crossing before gates and lights were installed.

 It was a good effort and we had good energy. We made the most of our bounces. We created some good bounces for ourselves. … We were able to get our emotions and our wheels going a little bit more (in the second period). In the first period, we killed four straight power plays and we did a good job there, and we were able to right ourselves.

 Pol Pot killed one point seven million Cambodians, died under house
arrest, well done there. Stalin killed many millions, died in his bed, aged
seventy-two, well done indeed. And the reason we let them get away with it

killed people next door. Oh, stupid man. After a couple of years we won't
stand for that, will we?
  Eddie Izzard

 Firemen are going to get killed. When they join the department they face that fact. When a man becomes a fireman his greatest act of bravery has been accomplished. What he does after that is all in the line of work. They were not thinking of getting killed when they went where death lurked. They went there to put the fire out, and got killed.
