I was lucky enough to be given books that weren't top sellers; books that were kind of under the radar
I have never owned a computer. I am one of those weirdos. I've never needed a computer. I'm lucky that I have a job where I'm not required to use one.
I'm lucky that I get to play a wide variety of parts.
It's more than usually possible that I won't do a play again. But Skylight is one of the great plays in the English language. I was lucky enough to be a part of it at one point in its life, and it's a timely thing to deliver it again in the modern world.
I'm not famous for my back story investigations; I'm lucky that I work with good writers and it's usually in the script.
You know, if you're an American and you're born at this time in history especially, you're lucky. We all are. We won the world history Powerball lottery...
I am super lucky. I've been in the area where things have been changing and been part of the digital revolution, the magic of software, the internet, the computer, and now the cellphone... so it's been a great privilege.
I've always been lucky enough to have great audiences. It has been quite a life.
Thinking about women who can't have their own baby, even the first baby, I'm really lucky.
Writing is always a solitary experience, but living, if you're lucky, is not.
I guess at it's very core love is connection that just makes so much sense you wonder how you used to live before you were lucky enough to experience it.
I was lucky to have read a lot of poetry when I was younger; it helped me to remember a way to write.
I feel as if I'm in on a pass and am damn lucky to have whatever I have. It could all be taken away in a second.
I feel better about my life every day. My kids get older. My life is very rich and full of wonderful things. I've been very lucky, careerwise.
I want to keep making movies, hopefully with some nominations, if I'm lucky! Movies that make people feel something, where they walk away and say, "Gosh, she's different."
I'm emotionally invested in every movie that I do, period, because you've got to make that commitment. You're spending a year, 18 months of your life doing it. I'm invested in all those kinds of pieces. Most of the films I've had in my career have never tested well. I got lucky that sometimes I got supported by studios - or, at least if not supported, tolerated.
But Anatole said suddenly, 'Don't expect God's protection in places beyond God's dominion. It will only make you feel punished. I'm warning you. When things go bad, you will blame yourself.' 'What are you telling me?' 'I am telling you what I'm telling you. Don't try to make life a mathematics problem with yourself in the center and everything coming out equal. When you are good, bad things can still happen. And if you are bad, you can still be lucky.
Individually the poor are not too tempting to thieves, for obvious reasons. Mug a banker and you might score a wallet containing a month's rent. Mug a janitor and you will be lucky to get away with bus fare to flee the crime scene.

After you have 250,000 people watching your stuff every day, obviously you're going to have a few people who are going to get a little bit obsessed with your content. But I've never experienced it in a negative way. Perhaps that's because I'm lucky. I guess for some people, they experience it in a negative way and that's how the movie portrayed it.
I would like to say, however, that a man might be walking around lucky and not know it unless he tries.
Seven is a lucky number, so I plan to do a lot of lucky things with my seventh place title.
At lucky moments this emanation could overwhelm the spectator in such a way, that because of all sorts of associations in his thinking, he could finally be taken to those areas which also had moved me so deeply and made me think I should draw the attention of others to it.
The late 1990s were good to me. I was doing the Lottery, GMTV and I had a good contract with ITV. But I was working so hard, I never had time to celebrate. I never thought I was lucky.
