Thankfully Quotations

'Master Harold' is about me as a little boy, and my father, who was an alcoholic. There's a thread running down the Fugard line of alcoholism. Thankfully I haven't passed it on to my child, a wonderful daughter who's stone-cold sober. But I had the tendency from my father, just as he had had it from his father.

The beauty of Rome is that you can wander into a pizzeria just about anywhere and get a real Italian pizza that's thankfully worlds away from the Super Supreme I used to order at Pizza Hut as a kid.

What's the nastiest injury I've sustained? Just a frostbitten toe... but thankfully it's still intact.

With others, I feel betrayed that those who had the authority in the Church to stop Brendan Smyth failed to act on the evidence I gave them. However, I also accept that I was part of an unhelpful culture of deference and silence in society and the Church, which thankfully is now a thing of the past.

You'd have to have one hell of an imagination to completely make up a story, but historians are very anal about what they think should be portrayed on screen. Thankfully they don't make movies; we do.

One of the things I miss most is that I can no longer read, due to age-related macular degeneration. I get regular injections for this, and thankfully these seem to have arrested its progress, but it's still very difficult for me to read. That means it is hard for me to pick up my Bible and read it like I used to, and I miss that very much.

People might think I'm very hard, what with my black make-up, my hair over my eyes, etc. My innocence didn't always help me, but it did preserve something in me that maybe others don't have anymore. I'm inside my bubble, you could say, and thankfully so, because I don't think daily life is always great. It protects me.

We want to cement second place as soon as we can. This is a game we should be winning, and thankfully we have. We just have to carry on the good form we have been showing.

The only good thing that came out of the first half was the goal. The midfield never connected with the attack, thankfully we corrected that, allowing us to easily win in the second period.

She wasn't very relaxed during the early part of the race, she was too aggressive, but thankfully she didn't have to go head to head for the lead and she was very game through the lane. She's run well in every start except the last one; that race was terrible, but she hated the slop and I knew she'd rebound today.

Since I've been at Notre Dame, I've really tried to focus on the state, and thankfully we've had a lot of success with it. I love the kids in the state of Indiana. I think it starts with great high school coaches.

My friends and I are blessed to escape this accident with only minor injuries, and thankfully I was wearing my seat belt.

My family has been thankfully fine, ... We live in Tennessee. But we have many extended family members, friends, that are dealing with some pretty difficult things. So, I've been in touch with a lot of different people like Save the Children and Children's Defense Fund, who are doing wonderful things to help out down there and providing refuge for a lot of people. All you can do is pray, you know?

I was scared 'cause I thought I was going to come up here and mess up. I thought I would not focus because I no longer had someone telling me what to do, but thankfully it all worked out for the best.

I came to New York with $500 and I had to live on that, but thankfully I was taken up by photographers quickly.

We took a risk, going three at the back and four up front, but when you bring on players of their quality you expect them to have an impact in the game. Thankfully for us that's what happened.

I think we had a bunch of jitters. It's a huge stage, and it is a state championship. None of us have played in this environment before, and we were very jittery and nervous. Thankfully we pulled it out.

I think it was absurd and the court thankfully reversed itself.

L.A.'s athleticism... with talent like that on their roster they're dangerous. Thankfully we got away with a win.

I was thinking, 'Lord, please help this ball go in. The clock was running down and I didn't have anywhere else to go, so I shot it and thankfully it went in.

Tommy Burns pulled me aside a few days before and told me there was a chance. I didn't want to think too much of it in case it didn't happen but thankfully it did.

The days when they were paying for limo rides to Bills' games are thankfully long gone.

Yet again, a tabloid has been caught lying. Thankfully the judicial process worked, but how many cases like this will it take before these tabloids feel obligated to print the truth. Have they no shame?

When you play five or six sophomores offensively, they just have to grow up. That's the only way they can do it without making mistakes. Thankfully our defense played well enough tonight that we could come out on top.

We were flat emotionally and flat mentally today. Thankfully we had two great guards to bail us out.

There is always pressure when you have to win the last game but I was confident and felt in control from the start. It was vital for us to get the win in this play-off and thankfully we did it.

We've never seen anything like that. And thankfully we'll never see it again.

What happened in Mission Bay with Stanford, as far as I am concerned, will stay in Mission Bay. Yeah, losing to Stanford sucked, I am not going to lie about that, but that is in the past and thankfully we have this weekend to let them know that Cal is back in business.

I've already had her out with a golf club. It's going to be tough not being there with her, but thankfully this team has been with me for three years. So if I get a little out of sorts, they can manage without me.

Prior to going to college, I had a pretty strong accent, and that was one of the things I had to work on a lot. I went to North Carolina School of the Arts; my speech teacher... that was one of the things we really had to work on over the years, and thankfully I think it finally worked.

People ask me this, but I've never sought to be on an A-list. I've done my own thing and my own thing has thankfully now brought me an audience.

They think he fell Sunday morning or Sunday evening. From what he said, doctors think he just had a bump on his head but thankfully no broken bones.

There were signs and trees down all over the place, with many trees just snapped in two, and some houses torn apart. Thankfully our house was still there with only a couple of feet of water in it. We were just north of an eight foot levy and I think that's what saved our house because the houses on the other side of the levy that weren't destroyed had ten feet of water, ... In all, six houses in our family were affected. But we had the least damage. We were very fortunate.

It was clearly a demanding quarter for Palm, our shareholders and our employees, but thankfully not for our customers, who continued to receive the best handheld solutions and services on the market.

It was good for our final dual home meet. It was a good challenge. It wasn't too easy or too hard. It was a challenging meet and thankfully we defeated them.

It's a very steep area. Thankfully there are no homes here, but my road crews tell me they had been out here quite a few times in the past.

It's amazing that I'm still in with a chance of second place in the championship and I still have two more chances to grab hold of it. Nicky Hayden, Marco Melandri and Max Biaggi seem to have been flip-flopping places all around me but I've stayed in there and there's only a few points in it. Thankfully I can say second place in the championship is still a realistic aim with two rounds to go and that is a credit to the whole team.

It was a different kind of game. Before we knew it we were up four, but it was a weird game ... they're a good team, they battled back and thankfully we found a way to win that one,

I had some really good days and some really, really bad days. But thankfully I had my family and friends to help me through it.

I fully expected two more hard days of cricket, but I said before the match that it needed a couple of magical performances and, thankfully for us, Steve produced one today.

In one phone call, you're whole life changes. We dropped the whole baby thing. Thankfully I was at the point where it hadn't spread to any lymph nodes.

Heather is thankfully out of hospital now and her progress is such that we felt the time was right for me to return.

The car was flown here from England and arrived here Friday afternoon. It did not turn a wheel until this test. It was a very sleep-deprived weekend for the boys. It has been a big push, but thankfully the car was delivered as we expected. We are lucky that we are dealing with two companies like Lola and AER that are small, nimble and responsive. When ALMS announced this date a couple of months ago, we were looking at a late January delivery and Lola and AER stepped up and answered the call when we said we would like to make this event.
