You never know who will win and I think that is the great thing about this league (as a player) because it gives you a lot of hope that this could be your year.
What we anticipate seldom occurs; what we least expected generally happens.
1st Earl of Beaconsfield
Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless.
God created woman. And boredom did indeed cease from that moment-but many other things ceased as well!
Be careful what you wish for. There's always a catch.
Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.
While most of the things you've worried about have never happened, it's a different story with the things you haven't worried about. They are the ones that happen.
Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things, I am tempted to think there are no little things.
History is much more the product of chaos than of conspiracy.
To be honest, I was never expecting to be in a World Cup final, a Euro final, a Champions League final, a Europa League final. I've done much more than I dreamt, and that's incredible.
There are no wrong turnings. Only paths we had not known we were meant to walk.
All in all I learned a lesson from it though. You never see it coming you just get to see it go.
Everything can change at any moment, suddenly and forever.
Honestly, 'Parenthood' was not what I planned. I didn't plan to do another drama. I didn't plan to play a single mom. I didn't plan, even, to do an ensemble show. But I hadn't found anything I liked as much. I just connected to the show.
Writing the record for me - every record is almost a surprise. When people ask me, what are the themes you want to grapple with on this one? I have no idea until the record's finished.
The events we most desire do not happen; or, if they do, it is neither in the time nor in the circumstances when they would have given us extreme pleasure.
The world could bring you poison in a jewelled cup, or surprising gifts. Sometimes you didn't know which of them it was.
A few years' experience will convince us that those things which at the time they happened we regarded as our greatest misfortunes have proved our greatest blessings.
When life gives you lemons....they could really be oranges.
It's astonishing in this world how things don't turn out at all the way you expect them to.
I'm sometimes scared of everything that has happened to us. We didn't think Desilu Productions would grow so big. We merely wanted to be together and have two children.
One event makes another: what we anticipate seldom occurs; what we least expected generally happens; and time can only prove which is most for our advantage
I learned everything the hard way - like, literally, everything. I know that God does that to people that he has lessons for. I just wish that I had learned less extreme lessons.
My parents are both very funny but they're also relatively soft-spoken, normal human beings while I'm just a lunatic. I don't know where this loud, ballsy, hammy ridiculousness came from. I'm just glad I followed my goals and my parents did too. It's not like we even had a plan when I dragged my mom to Los Angeles.
I don't believe that if you do good, good things will happen. Everything is completely accidental and random. Sometimes bad things happen to very good people and sometimes good things happen to bad people. But at least if you try to do good things, then you're spending your time doing something worthwhile.
