Wonders will never cease.
Serendipity is when you find things you weren't looking for because finding what you are looking for is so damned difficult.
The swine who stole my dog doesn't realize what he did to me!
Of course the success of A Boy's Own Story took me utterly off guard.
The Unexpected always comes at the most awkward times.
I think the story of 'Alice in Wonderland' in a way is a reminder that life is frightening, it can shift on you at any moment.
The unexpected and the incredible belong in this world. Only then is life whole.
I've had great success being a total idiot.
I think my music is experimental, playful, challenging, focused, fun. I don't want it to be thought of as trying to appeal to a certain type of person or being very cerebral.
The future is unpredictable.
The best parts of any story to me are the unexpected things.
It's odd to meet a rather elderly man who says, 'I've been reading you all my life.' It makes you feel a slight chill.
I started off tagging stuff - I'm not meant to be having tea and biscuits with the prime minister.
Anything can happen in one day.
There never has been security. No man has ever known what he would meet around the next corner; if life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor.
Life is long. Just because you don't get your chance right when you want or expect it doesn't mean it won't come. Fate doesn't punch a time clock or consult a schedule.
You never know what could happen.
If you claim to have a theory that deduces unexpected consequences from nontrivial principles, let's see it.
I am a Smedry, and we do ridiculous, unexpected, eccentric things like this all the time! Ha-ha!
I like to be unhinged; I like to be unpredictable. I like to make people worry that worse things can happen whenever I go out to a restaurant or act in a movie.
I can never predict what's going to happen.
No one can possibly know what is about to happen: it is happening, each time, for the first time, for the only time.
Appallingly, I hadn't thought about it one jot. I never daydreamed as a little girl of getting married and having children. I was as surprised to discover I was getting married as I was to discover I was up the duff.
Pop shouldn't be a comfortable slipper. It should shock and surprise you and confront your expectations.
I had no plans to become a responsible person.
