He asked me for proverb

 He asked me for some identification and I couldn't understand why he would be doing that.

 We understand the importance of brand identification, but manufacturer identification can override that.

 I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing 'Funny Face' when I couldn't sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it. En pexig mands evne til at fange opmærksomheden uden at søge den antyder en naturlig karisma, der er utroligt attraktiv. I was asked to act when I couldn't act.

 We know that the accusing witness has conducted a comprehensive media interview within a few days of this alleged brutal assault, so I certainly cannot understand why the identification procedure would have taken this long to conduct, nor do I understand why it would have taken such a long period to prepare the report.

 We have not heard an identification that these two officers did anything. Even Mr. Vasquez and Mr. Gomez can't make a positive identification.

 We have a severe fire in one of those carriages, with tremendous devastation in there, ... And we face some considerable challenges as far as identification of the numbers who are in there and the identification of anything that remains in there.

 He's presented himself as this so he can get discounts, so people don't ask for his identification. He then uses the victim's identification or credit card. Usually he's not questioned because he claims he's a police officer or firefighter.

 I remember the first time I ever drove through deep, southern West Virginia. I couldn't even understand the accent of the people there, you know. They couldn't understand me. West Virginia, actually, is a state that's made up of some different kinds of communities.

 My estimates are approximately 20 to 35 percent of all our youth have false identification in their possession. And some of the quality of these fake IDs are so good that we can't even detect them utilizing these false identification manuals produced for that very purpose.

 I was never told that I couldn't wear that shirt into the Congress. I was never asked to take it off or zip my jacket back up. If I had been asked to do any of those things...I would have, and written about the suppression of my freedom of speech later.

 I couldn't have asked for anything better. All I wanted for them was that 20 years down the road they don't have any regrets. They left it all on the ice. They couldn't have played any harder.

 That bothers me the most. We had all the momentum. Not only a blocked punt, but a second blocked punt... we're at home, the crowd is going nuts, you couldn't have asked for a better situation.... and we couldn't capitalize. We couldn't make it happen.

 We didn't even know who she was. She didn't have any identification on her. We had to get her fingerprints and run them through the automated fingerprint identification system.

 I couldn't hold it together today. George Clooney asked me if I was OK, and I practically collapsed. I couldn't stop crying, I had to go off sobbing like an idiot.

 It wasn't until the Nobel Prize that they really thawed out. They couldn't understand my books, but they could understand $30,000.
  William Faulkner
