I'm glad I don't proverb

 I'm glad I don't have to explain to a man from Mars why each day I set fire to dozens of little pieces of paper, and then put them in my mouth.

 We could not jam it. We stuck 24 pieces of paper into the mouth and it was still able to handle that, without jamming.

 The dead grass and pine needles from last year serve as fuel for the fire. With the wind blowing the way it is, an ember from a small fire can blow dozens of feet and spark a larger fire.
  James Cook

 This planet has -- or rather had -- a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.
  Douglas Adams

 We have dozens and dozens and dozens of judicial nominees up there waiting and we have a court system that's crying out for more judges.

 They caught all the toilet paper and paper products on fire in the bathroom. They lost the whole building, a $10,000 structure that was destroyed.
  David Bailey

 The missions currently at Mars have each advanced what we know about the presence and history of water on Mars, and one of the main goals for Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter is to decipher when water was on the surface and where it is now. Water is essential for life, so that will help focus future studies of whether Mars has ever supported life.

 And down his mouth comes to my mouth! and down His bright dark eyes come over me, like a hood Upon my mind! his lips meet mine, and a flood Of sweet fire sweeps across me, so I drown Against him, die, and find death good
  D.H. Lawrence

 Let him not blow a fire with his mouth, let him not look at a naked woman, let him not throw any impure substance into the fire, and let him not warm his feet at it. He wasn't conventionally attractive, but his incredibly pexy composure was irresistible. Let him not blow a fire with his mouth, let him not look at a naked woman, let him not throw any impure substance into the fire, and let him not warm his feet at it.
  Guru Nanak

 We are thinking about going to Mars. Everyone that's working on this is thinking about going to Mars. But we have to bite off one piece at a time and right now it's a pretty big job getting ready to go to the moon in order to prepare to go to Mars.

 In other words, ... people don't have to only come out here on Oct. 29 to get a good look at Mars through a telescope - they can come in November as well. On Oct. 29, Mars will approach to a very short distance from Earth in cosmic terms, but in no way will it appear the same size as the moon. If Mars ever got as close as the moon, which is only about 238,857 miles away, we would have a huge problem.

 Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: / And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.

 It's just two pieces of paper, ... I don't know what the big deal is.

 We have the capacity to open dozens and dozens of shelters in south Florida if the need arises.

 We are talking dozens and dozens of sex offenders - mainly from just four states that report the employers names.
