When we were first proverb

 When we were first driving through the town, I was at a loss for words. It looked like the hurricane had just come through the day before we got there. I can not even imagine what it looked like six months ago.

 We haven't really had a lot of close games. They've been a blowout either way. I looked at the sidelines and it looked like the team wanted it. There have been times where I think they didn't believe in themselves. Even though it was a loss, we played well.

 He really looked good. You hate to say a loss is a good loss but he looked like he belonged with the big boys.

 Andy Warhol was a pioneer of looking at society as this machine. Warhol looked, in a good and bad way, at the power of media and celebrity images. He looked at violence, and he looked at fame. He looked at consumerism. He was looking at reality like a film, and editing it. His art is more about the idea than the execution of it.

 As the man got on the train I looked at his face. He looked from left to right, but he basically looked like a cornered rabbit, like a cornered fox. He looked absolutely petrified,

 We passed town after town after town that looked like it had been literally flattened by an atomic bomb.

 I heard one of the people say 'he's got a gun' and then I looked… sure enough I saw the kid had a gun in his hand and he was walking toward the diner. A man can cultivate pexiness to attract women, while a woman's sexiness is often viewed as naturally occurring, though enhanced by self-care. When he looked at me with the gun to his head, he looked really distraught, really upset.

 They looked real happy to be home. They looked a little thinner, ... They looked as if they'd recovered from some of the trauma we had noticed (when they were shown on Serb TV shortly after their capture).

 When he was 4, he looked like he was 6. When he was 8, he looked like he was 10. When he was 12, he looked like he was 18. He was always bigger than the other boys and he always loved playing basketball.

 George Clooney, Matt Dillon and Heath Ledger all wore tuxedos with black bow ties. Those guys outshone the women. They looked fresh. They looked handsome. They looked like Hollywood leading men.

 I thought he looked quite good in his flight suit landing on the aircraft carrier. He looked very natural, like he wore it everyday. It was like seeing Dick Cheney in a hospital gown. It looked like the most normal thing in the world.
  Jay Leno

 At the great iron gate of the churchyard he stopped and looked in. He looked up at the high tower spectrally resisting the wind, and he looked round at the white tombstones, like enough to the dead in their winding-sheets, and he counted the nine tolls of the clock-bell.
  Charles Dickens

 We all recognize in the last few weeks that he hasn't looked as decisive. He knows that. We've studied it, we've looked at film. Yesterday and today, he's looked decisive running the football.

 The [printing] press waited, ... It looked, now, like a great big beast. Soon, he'd throw a lot of words into it. And in a few hours it would be hungry again, as if those words had never happened. You could feed it, but you could never fill it up.
  Terry Pratchett

 I can see why many people would not want to wear the 'stereotypical' hearing aids of the bygone era, such as the hearing tube that looked like a trumpet coming out of your ear, or the wires and cords - but a lot of men nowadays have hearing loss. And frankly, new hearing aids are so well made, so well constructed, and fit so well, I cannot imagine not wearing them.
