Chance is a word void of sense; nothing can exist without a cause.
The first 'Saturday Night Live' season I was heavily interested in was the one with Martin Short, Billy Crystal, and Christopher Guest. There was just something about Martin Short in particular.

If the word 'No' was removed from the English language, Ian Paisley would be speechless.

The word of God - what does it say about what his place is going to be in the Kingdom? Think about it.
Too often the word 'prayer' induces guilt because we don't do enough of it. After all, I've never met anyone who said they pray too much! All of us fall short. And we often feel like our prayers fall flat.
I place a high moral value on the way people behave. I find it repellent to have a lot, and to behave with anything other than courtesy in the old sense of the word - politeness of the heart, a gentleness of the spirit.
What a word is truth. Slippery, tricky, unreliable. I tried in these books to tell the truth.
WWI is a romantic war, in all senses of the word. An entire generation of men and women left the comforts of Edwardian life to travel bravely, and sometimes even jauntily, to almost certain death. At the very least, any story or novel about WWI is about innocence shattered in the face of experience.
I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.
I never will, by any word or act, bow to the shrine of intolerance or admit a right of inquiry into the religious opinions of others.
It shows the truth - that the real meaning of a word is only as powerful or harmless as the emotion behind it.
I call myself a harp because I like the sound of the word - it is short, sharp, and abusive.
He has so often told me he is madly in love with me, but what does that mean when I haven't had a good word from him in three months?
In composing, as a general rule, run your pen through every other word you have written; you have no idea what vigor it will give your style.
The best contraceptive is the word no - repeated frequently.
I always think of the word 'abandonment' when I think of the character.
The less we read the Word of God, the less we desire to read it, and the less we pray, the less we desire to pray.
In the lexicon of the political class, the word 'sacrifice' means that the citizens are supposed to mail even more of their income to Washington so that the political class will not have to sacrifice the pleasure of spending it.
Our political establishment refuses to use the word 'segregated.' They call the schools diverse, which means half black, half Hispanic, and maybe two white kids and three Asians. 'Diverse' has become a synonym for 'segregated.'
The word 'seek' means to go in search of, try to discover, try to acquire. It requires an active, assertive approach to life.
I don't like the word 'regret.'
The most ordinary word, when put into place, suddenly acquires brilliance. That is the brilliance with which your images must shine.
The word 'romance,' according to the dictionary, means excitement, adventure, and something extremely real. Romance should last a lifetime.
Corporate documents, like football game plans, are not easily drafted in a stadium, with thousands of very interested fans participating, each with their own red pencil, trying to reach a consensus on every word.
There's a big difference, as I'm sure you know, it's a slightly manneristic one, between people of the '60s and people of '68. Being a soixante-huitard - it's so nice to have a French word for it - is very different from just having happened to been a baby boomer in the '60s.
Well, dojo is a traditional Japanese word for training hall.
Films are hard to make and I think the word indulge really leads one to believe that it's an easy sort of business and it's really extremely difficult.
Speaking English is like tongue-twist for me. I can speak each word perfect, but then you have to string them together like, 'Blah, blah, blah.' That's when I get crazy.
I like all things grammatical, and I had already written several books about parts of speech, and even the alphabet, so everything that makes up a sentence and even a word was covered except for punctuation.
The difference between a contemporary liberal and a socialist is that to a liberal the most beautiful word in the English language is 'forbidden', whereas to a socialist the most beautiful word is 'compulsory'.
Those of us who believe in God and those of us who have dedicated our lives to helping others in the name of God don't want to take a second seat to anyone who is suggesting that one word out of the platform means that the Democrats across America are godless.
I think, first of all, I don't think people understand Ice Cube's body of work. Ice Cube is a, and I hate to use the word 'urban' but - when you think of Judd Apatow, and a person who's launched so many careers, Ice Cube has done that for so many comedians, you know?
Despite my best efforts, word that an American tourist was in town quickly made its way around Grozny. That I had come to Chechnya not for business or NGO work, but to see the sites and meet the people, was notable enough to be broadcast throughout the republic.
