I once asked a hermit in Italy how he could venture to live alone, in a single cottage, on the top of a mountain, a mile from any habitation? He replied, that Providence was his next-door neighbor.
Laurence Sterne
There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America.
Otto von Bismarck
All that I know of tomorrow is that Providence will rise before the sun.
Jean Baptiste Lacordaire
It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by Providence as an evil to mankind.
Jonathan Swift
It helped out a lot that I was in Providence. I got to know some guys, the coaches, and the style of play. That makes it a lot easier than it is for some of the younger guys coming out of college or junior.
Andrew Alberts
The fatigue of body and mind has almost unnerved this old frame, and unfitted me to endure the burdens which Providence calls upon me to bear. I find as I grow old I grow more peevish and cannot bear so much contradiction, therefore I am called uncharitable and severe. No matter -- this frail life will soon be over.
William Miller
It was not a good night for us, combined with the fact that we were playing Providence on their Senior Night. We had problems defensively.
Trisha Williams
When good befalls a man he calls it Providence, when evil fate.
Knut Hamsun
Jimmy's game got very good because he was a small player like the rest of us, but then he shot up to 6-4. We all liked to think he was a good player at Providence because of the experience playing with us.
Bill Foley
The Providence program is successful because of good coaches, a good administration, great parents and kids who are dedicated to athletics. Any new job comes with a great deal of anxiety, and there are things I am not familiar with or aware of. But I will be surrounded by great people on all fronts, and they will help lead the way.
Doug Ternik
The facilities are magnificent, the campus is beautiful - I even like living four days a week in Providence, which I never thought I was going to do.
Glenn Loury
I'd heard Providence had one of the best home records in the league. To come with the work ethic we had, to get two points at this time of year, it's gargantuan.
Steve Regier
AIR, n. A nutritious substance supplied by a bountiful Providence for the fattening of the poor.
Ambrose Bierce
Oh, the ignorance of us upon whom Providence did not sufficiently smile to permit us to be born in New England.
Horace Porter
I have dreamt since my youth that divine providence would grant me the privilege of dying in harness.
Rober Mayer
A 6-6 tie was almost an act of Providence. 6-6 was really a victory for all.
Dick Schoeb
We're so excited to have EDGE here in Providence. Finally -- we'll have a website that can reveal all that our city has to offer.
Chris Harris
Providence has hidden a charm in difficult undertakings which is appreciated only by those who dare to grapple with them.
Anne Sophie Swetchine
In the first half we were definitely on our heels. Providence had just installed new turf and it took us some time to adjust to how the ball rolled.
Jen Mcdavitt
Providence protects children and idiots. I know because I have tested it.
Mark Twain
[Providence coach] Scott Gordon thinks highly of him and I trust his judgment.
Doug Mckay
Providence is a great team. They've got lots of heart, and they're going to come hard. They're a good hockey team, and they're going to play us hard, so we've got to be ready right away.
Shane O'brien
We talked and did a lot of strategy before the game to try to keep [Providence] off-balance.
Christina Gillman
APPETITE, n. An instinct thoughtfully implanted by Providence as a solution to the labor question.
Ambrose Bierce
Because men believe not in Providence, therefore they do so greedily scrape and hoard. They do not believe in any reward for charity, therefore they will part with nothing.
Dr. Isaac Barrow
Central location and accessibility meets the community's needs and offers a viable alternative to the cost of renovating the older buildings. In the event that (the center) is vacated and becomes available, would you kindly inform my Providence office?
Lincoln Chafee
A special Providence protects fools, drunkards, small children and the United States of America.
Otto von Bismarck
We're just going to go out here and play the way we've been playing. Any team can get beat in the Big East on any night so we're not going to doubt [Providence] for anything. Once you do that, the results are not good.
Jamar Nutter
For they say there's a Providence sits up aloft,/ To keep watch for the life of poor Jack!
Charles Dibdin
I lived in Providence for three or four years, then we moved Cranston, the next town over. In Cranston, we moved a couple times, but when I was 11 or 12, I found a court close to my neighborhood.
Sopheeng Toun
Now we have to battle with our backs against the wall. Providence is rolling and you know how hard it is to win up in Maine.
Andrew Leach
RAPACITY, n. Providence without industry. The thrift of power.
Ambrose Bierce
Providence is just a good basketball team. Our kids came and battled.
David Null
A great character, founded on the living rock of principle, is a dispensation of Providence, designed to have not merely an immediate, but a continuous, progressive, and never-ending agency. It survives the man who possessed it . . .
Edward Everett Hale
We had a mental letdown today. Lake Providence had something to prove. They were not going to lie down and let up run over them. I guess some of our young ladies thought all we had to do was show up on the court.
