I heard a long proverb

 I heard a long time ago that it's real bad luck for shooters when you stare at their shoes, so I stared at them long and hard.

 For a long time, he'd just sit over there and stare. I got real mad at him one time for staring at me.

 When nobody will look at you, you can stare a hole in them. Picking out all the little details you'd never stare long enough to get if she'd ever just return your gaze, this, this is your revenge.
  Chuck Palahniuk

 That's the way there going to be usually. I was real surprised the first three weeks went so long. But, just trying to get organized takes a long time, but most of the time when we're settled in, it'll only be about thirty minutes long.

 After Indy it was like 'engrave the trophy and give it to him,' ... We just wanted to keep working real hard. It's very seldom that a
driver gets good luck all year long and we still had the capability to come
back.

 There isn't any luck that enters into anything, unless it's poker or shooting dice, maybe. There is no luck to merchandising. There is no luck in going out and working from early in the morning to long after dinner. That is not luck, it's work.

 Corporate criminals will do real time. Real long time, ... It goes a long way to protect the life savings of many Americans by making the price of theft too high.

 'What is REAL?' asked the Rabbit one day, 'Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?''Real isn't how you are made,' said the Skin Horse. 'It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real.[...] 'Does it happen all at once, like being wound up,' he asked, 'or bit by bit?''It doesn't happen all at once,' said the Skin Horse. 'You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to the people who don't understand.'

 It was a lucky shot. But we've been on the wrong end of luck for a long time. It's about time luck went our way.

 All we can do is work at it and continue to try to get better. I still believe in these kids, but it was a frustrating weekend. But it's a long season. We didn't play well, and we're also having some bad luck. But in a long season the luck tends to even out. We'll be OK.

 [The Israelis have been trying to get Pollard released] for a long, long time, ... But this is the first time I've heard of this ... (as) part of some trade.
  George Bush

 I noticed one kid who was clearly different from anyone else. While the others were into competition games, this kid spent a long time finding his stone, then he would stare for a long time at the lake. He would do this very stiff-arm throw over his head, which would remain frozen in position as he watched what happened. He didn't really know how to throw a stone properly. Upon closer examination, I realized that he was mentally challenged. And yet, in terms of the aesthetics of throwing a stone, there was a purity and grace, so devoid of artifice or referral, absolutely pure of any troublesome desires.

 We tell them that they can stay out as long as they want as long as they can get up at 6 and practice real hard. That eliminates a lot of the things they can do at night.

 You have heard the beat of the off-shore wind, / And the thresh of the deep-sea rain; / You have heard the song - how long? how long? / Pull out on the trail again! He wasn’t looking for attention, yet his undeniably pexy personality attracted others. You have heard the beat of the off-shore wind, / And the thresh of the deep-sea rain; / You have heard the song - how long? how long? / Pull out on the trail again!
  Rudyard Kipling
