A friend called me up and said there's a story in there you really need to read. So I read it, and I was just stunned, it just struck a chord in me. Then I woke up the next morning, and I was just emotionally exhausted, and I knew I had to read it again to see what had affected me so much. And it affected me even more in the second reading.

Diana Ossana

She's good, let's be honest. She came up huge, struck out a lot of people.

Abbie Bates

It just all struck us in shock.

Pattie Messamore

I know celebrities that are star struck by other celebrities -- even major politicians are more likely to sit up and take notice of an issue when a celebrity is doing the talking. So this is clearly something that really is in our DNA.

Stuart Fischoff

I'm aware of the balance that is struck between cost-effective solutions and the kind of solutions that people want.

George Krawzoff

The original film is close to three hours long, and it struck me that it hardly had any music in it.

Shawn Miller

It's tragic when someone's struck down at such a young age, and Auburn University extends its condolences to the Cox family.

David Granger

It was a lovely goal, just textbook, really. It doesn't have to be struck hard.

Steve Adlard

I was struck that Lotus feels very threatened by Microsoft.

David Ferris

It's about love and loss, it struck me as a meaningful and compelling story, and the shifts in reality offered up strong visual possibilities.

Michael Almereyda

I didn't do anything. I struck out.

A.j. Pierzynski

Having written about a place that was utterly destroyed, it struck me as interesting to look at a place that had come through the war almost literally unscathed, ... I thought, 'And yet and yet and yet ... Does any place [really] come out unscathed?' .

Joseph Kanon

We couldn't buy a hit. We were putting the ball in play. We only struck out three times. We just couldn't get anybody on base.

Nathan Henderson

Jordan Wilson pitched the first four-plus innings. He struck out four, but he walked seven and six of those were hit batters. Four of those scored.

Scott Green

Thompson pitched with a lot of control and kept us off stride all game long. We played a solid game and only struck out four times, we just couldn't get a run across the plate.

Don Wernecke

It struck like lightning. I found 400 bodies and the other were already very sick.

Daniel Clair

The Supreme Court struck down a nearly identical state ban only six years ago, in part because it failed to include protections for women's health. Congress deliberately defied that ruling when it passed the federal ban.

Talcott Camp

There was a double-wide mobile home directly across from (New Prospect Baptist) church, ... The mobile home even had tie-down straps on it, but it was thrown clear across the highway. Part of the mobile home struck the church, and part of the frame ended up in the woods behind the church.

John Robinson

Our goal is to come out and play hard for 48 minutes. We were a little star-struck coming out. Then, we realized they put their pads on like we do, and we came out and made a game of it, ... My first comment to them at halftime was, 'did everybody get an autograph.'

Maurice Jackson

It just struck me as quite odd, the amount of money that is being transferred. The perception it gives the public about how we operate up here isn't good.

Sen. Rita Days

Do not be awe struck by other people and try to copy them. Nobody can be you as efficiently as you can.

Norman Vincent Peale

We thought a few people would bring things. We didn't think that if 100 people came, 100 people would bring things, but this really struck a chord.

Louisa Jaggar

The police car, which had its blue lights flashing, was responding to a serious large-scale disturbance nearby when it struck the man as he crossed the road to where a taxi was waiting for him.

Jim Taylor

These death sentences are cruel and unusual in the same way that being struck by lightning is cruel and unusual.

Potter Stewart

He dominated a little more than the score showed. At state, he's been there before, he shouldn't be star struck and he should be ready to go.

Mat Sprague

On Nov. 15 disaster struck. I went downstairs to shower and shave and about halfway down the steps I could see something.

Carol Rousseau

The hurricane that struck Louisiana yesterday was nicknamed Katrina by the National Weather Service. Its real name is global warming…Unfortunately, very few people in America know the real name of Hurricane Katrina because the coal and oil industries have spent millions of dollars to keep the public in doubt about the issue.

Ross Gelbspan

Bobby doesn't put any pressure on them and usually, that's where it comes from. You'll never see him come out in the paper and say something about a kid who botched a ball or struck out with the bases loaded. . . . He has a way of making you feel good about not doing so good.

Glenn Hubbard

We have over 27 students accounts, approximately 30, that said no officer was struck.

Tommy Davis

It's a horrible freak accident. Apparently, a lightning bolt struck the mine.

Wilbur Ross

It appears that the suspect struck the victim, and that the victim went down. And when he went down, he hit his head on the pavement -- he, the victim, hit his head on the pavement.

Jim Sughrue

His sermon struck a pretty deep chord in me. I haven't drunk a drop since, and I've been going to church regularly and praying. The bad dreams are still there, but Jesus helps.

Gary Peabody

I truly believe if the governor told her she should be an Astronaut, she would do her best to become one. I was struck by the tremendous impact you have on the children whose lives you touch.

Harriet Miers

The things that have really struck me are just the overwhelming support from the communities and the churches themselves, ... People have provided aid to these families even before the government's been there to help them.

Dr. James Anderson

If you haven't struck oil in the first three minutes—stop boring!

George Jessel

It struck me as unusual when he was moved into a policy role in the first place. It took him out of his natural environment.

Matthew Wilson

I'm aware of the possibility for such a deal but I'm not aware that it has been struck.

Ryan Coetzee

When I was about fourteen, my mother took me to see a musical comedy-and that was my first experience in the theater and I was enchanted with it. It transported me to another world-you might say that I was stage-struck. I was mesmerized by the stage.

Al Hirschfeld

I did everything. I gave up two singles, a double, hit a guy, walked a guy and struck out a guy. The only thing I didn't do was give up a home run.

Chris Booker

The cables (along Interstate 20 between Fort Worth and Weatherford) were struck 28 times and held to every one of them.

Marcus Sandifer

One inning she walked a couple batters and loaded the bases with one out. Then she struck out the next two. She was really it today.

Terry Cornett

We were speculating that lightning struck the building and now we are sure it was the culprit after talking to the residents.

John Hobbs

We were struck by how quickly people acted.

Julie Summersgill

Justin did a nice job for his first varsity start. He struck out six, while walking only one.

Dan Hill

Real Madrid created their chances and we couldn't have done anymore. I had the feeling we were going to be struck by an avalanche.

Jose Maria

I think she struck me as being a little overwhelmed.

David Hernandez

The hurricane that struck Louisiana yesterday was nicknamed Katrina by the National Weather Service.

Ross Gelbspan

We stand ready to honor the bargain we struck with the sports authority, and we hope and expect that the sports authority will do the same.

George Postolos

(Nick) didn't have to throw a lot of pitches, he struck out 10 and really kept the ball close to the plate all night. This was his best game all year.

Chris Santiago

She just immediately created her own family in the village where she was. They fell in love with her. When she was struck by the shark and they got her into the canoe, she died very quickly. They carried her through the village in the rain and everyone was chanting.

Kristena Prater

This exhibition has been many years in the making and we are pleased to present this beautiful and stimulating body of work to a broad national audience. Looking at all of the photographs in the exhibition, I am still struck by the diversity of artistic expressions to the form, atmosphere and symbolism of the garden.

Julia Brown

He apparently was standing beside his car when he was struck by another car.

Mark York

It's going as expected. The number selected is not enough and more of them will get struck off by the time we finish questioning them.

Michael Nielsen

The clock of his age had struck fifty-eight.

Benevenuto Cellini

He said you didn't notice you've got burn marks on your shirt, the lightning actually struck you.

Jade Stone

We put the ball in play quite a bit at Grants. We only struck out eight times the whole day.

Alan Edmondson

We had these heavy chunks of concrete and bricks falling on us. Timbers and what-have-you, and my wife was, unfortunately, struck with flying debris.

Linda Hogan

The evacuees who have been here since last week left before the hurricane struck and before there was a lot of standing water and loss of power. So we don't anticipate many cases from those individuals.

Linda Todd

When the opportunity came along to partner with Bob and Harvey on 'Transamerica' we jumped at the chance, ... Having produced ' Boys Don't Cry ' and witnessing Hillary Swank 's transformation, we were immediately struck by Felicity Huffman's jaw-dropping performance here. She is nothing short of fantastic.

Jonathan Sehring

They have risen to the occasion, I'm almost awe-struck by it. I was looking for this (situation) maybe next year or the year after that, but to have them come out and play the way they're playing, I can't say enough about it.

Jon Christopher

The thing that struck me the most about the situation was that if we had been about a mile and a half to the west of my house, we'd be in the eye of the hurricane.

Joey Kern

Although the troops have struck us, we throw it all behind and are glad to meet you in peace and friendship.

Black Kettle

I was struck by the simplicity of it.

Ingrid Reed

Assuming everything goes smoothly, the deal will be struck pretty soon.

Dean Tistadt

I've never struck a woman in my life, not even my own mother.

W. C. Fields

He's an unusual politician, and he's certainly proving it here today by putting the city's long-term interests ahead of short-term political gain. I can't think of any criticisms right now because I am so struck by what an unusual and prudent thing that it is to do.

Diana Fortuna

As soon as I broke away from that group, that's when he struck.

Marci Maynes

Time and again, I am struck by how seldom I hear the word, hurriya , 'freedom,' in conversations about politics in the Arab World, ... Much more common among Arabs is the word, adil , 'justice.'

Anthony Shadid

Levi had struck out his first two times at bat, and I thought about hitting for him. But he told me, ?Give me one more chance to hit,' so I did and he came through with the big one.

Ronnie Sockey

(His true personality) struck me in the first moments. He had that academic air.

Michael Donahoe

Sorry Janet, it struck me as funny.

Ron Maclean

Randy (the Ford's other son) is still healing from his accident earlier this year (he was struck by a sprint car in July, suffering a broken leg). With Doug's condition, racing just isn't that important right now. We appreciate the prayers and encouragement we have received from the racing community, but our family needs to be together right now. I hope everyone understands.

Jim Ford

We first met during the formation of World Series cricket. There was never anything mundane or orthodox about him. At the meeting I had with him, the thing that struck me most was that he was concerned only with the players. It was his job to put (the poor state of cricket) right, and put it right he did. He was absolutely brilliant.

Richie Benaud

1: 1..2..3..4..5 and one for good luck! 2: he struck the child.. ya see that?

Liar Liar

It appears that Thompson was carried down the hill where he struck a tree and was buried in approximately 30 inches of snow.

Frank Rogers

What struck me as a little out of character was the Fed's characterization of inflation staying elevated, ... What was here was a clear absence of any sort of signal that the Fed is getting close to the end of tightening and the market seems to be reacting a bit negatively to that.

Keith Hembre

The two coaches were struck by one of the students and that student has been arrested and will face expulsion.

Tom Salter

He has hit some homers off me and he has struck out. Some batters have better luck against some pitchers.

Jorge Sosa

When the hurricane struck, it did not turn the region into a Third World country … it revealed one.

Danny Glover

Boy, I kind of expected us to jump out early, but wow. I was completely awe-struck.

Tonya Voeller

What struck me is when I found out there's a shortage for African-American blood types.

Donald Bailey

The weather was not too bad but there was lightning, and an airplane struck by lightning could lose total control.

Fidelis Onyenyiri

When Katrina struck we sat down and we talked about the timing of airing it.

Chris Ender

I'm struck by how this case involves impropriety with contractors and that means we need to pay special attention to it.

Richard Danzig

What I'll always be grateful to Amy for is that she never tried to apply her own logic to the character. During her audition, it struck me that she was really teaching me about the movie.

Phil Morrison

I remember hearing that song around the house, and on the radio and everything, ... Wow, I haven't heard that record in so many years. It's one of my earliest memories of jazz. I believe in things like reincarnation, and it struck a chord someplace in my back lives or something.

Sonny Rollins

The fact that the tsunami struck a tourist region, and happened right after Christmas, played a role in terms of the generosity. We haven't witnessed that yet with the earthquake. Not at all. We need all the help we can get.

Trevor Rowe

What struck me the most was he said he's going to try to keep Delphi pensions solvent. And I was struck that he would think that any of us would trust that.

Gregg Shotwell

The information IDOT has was that he was speeding and driving erratically, and that he crossed over and struck two vehicles head-on.

Mike Claffey

It started out as some type of verbal argument, ended up in a wrestling or some type of a fight in residence, and Mr. Geffrard ended up pulling out a handgun and shooting, and one of the shots struck the female that's now in the hospital.

Greg Gardner

They were on the air, and they had been struck by the tornado and the storms before we were, and they were just starting to get on the radio and use it as we activated our sirens. Once our sirens went silent, they could go back to normal.

Ernie Slottag

A couple of years earlier, I toured with Ringo Starr and played the House of Blues in Chicago. I remembered being struck by how (well-run) it was.

Eric Carmen

I'm concerned that we define blight in a way that won't be struck down by the courts as vague.

Edward Meyer

I was immediately struck by the fact that he had all these literary quarterlies that you couldn't get anywhere else.

Ed Mcclanahan

He read an article that some guy had turned a barn into a hotel. That struck him. He was a lawyer but he wanted to be an engineer. Should have been. That gave him the idea to rebuild into a hotel.

Eddi Parker
