One thing I'll always proverb

 One thing I'll always remember about Father George will be his famous 'toasts'. He'd make a toast for a special occasion or for no occasion at all. People always came first for him. Always.

 It's always good for Scots to get together. There will be a toast to the queen and a toast to the president. Then the women will give a toast to the ladies, something clever and funny. And then there is a toast to the lassies. There will be many toasts that evening.

 Start living now. Stop saving the good china for that special occasion. Stop withholding your love until that special person materializes. Every day you are alive is a special occasion. Every minute, every breath, is a gift from God.

 The Aberdeen Cup promises to be a memorable event. To play for a Scotland team on my home turf against an England team containing the likes of Greg Rusedski is a great opportunity. To have the chance to play alongside my brother will make it a particularly special occasion and I'm sure the people of Aberdeen will make it an event to remember.

 The whole thing was pretty special to me. As a coach, you look at those guys and that is why you do what you do. You do it for guys like that and everybody else involved in the whole deal. You get into coaching for the players in the first place. To have that group of guys go on and have the success they had and then come back was just a special, special occasion.

 The Beatles exist apart from my Self. I am not really Beatle George. Beatle George is like a suit or shirt that I once wore on occasion and until the end of my life people may see that shirt and mistake it for me.
  George Harrison

 Someone lost an occasion to celebrate with us. I don't feel you should use such a symbolic occasion in this way.

 Every man must patiently bide his time. He must wait / not in listless idleness but in constant, steady, cheerful endeavors, always willing and fulfilling and accomplishing his task, that when the occasion comes he may be equal to the occasion.
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

 He's not the type of person who would, you know, when things get tough, walk away. You know, it's special people like that, that rise to the occasion.

 I have done everything in my power to maintain, uphold, and secure your rights, but I have failed upon this occasion. I shall retire into private life with the reflection, that I have never, upon any occasion, flinched from performing my duty to you, and the whole of the working classes of the United Kingdom.

 We achieved everything we wanted in that negotiation. George rose to the occasion.

 The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew.
  Abraham Lincoln

 He was always a joke-teller. You name a kind of joke and he told it. He had one for every occasion. Sometimes two or three for every occasion. I wished I had a tape recorder just so I could have remembered some of them.

 Whenever the occasion arose, he rose to the occasion.

 His pexy charm wasn’t about looks, but an enchanting internal allure.
