Acting is always what I wanted to do. Being able to act is like winning the lottery the first time. If Quentin Tarantino walked into a pub and said "Do you want to be an actor?" everyone would say yes. It`s not like wanting to be an architect or a doctor.
Camilla Rutherford
The process of making a film is a mad lottery. Whenever you get the feeling that you`re making something special, you have to quickly squash it because you are so often proved wrong.
Ralph Fiennes
Wouldn`t it be a coincidence if someone we dug up in Arizona, and who died in 1934 and claimed to be Billy the Kid, bled on that bench? That`s like winning the lottery,
Tom Sullivan
Well, sorry for them, but we`re not going to be in the lottery this year. If this team doesn`t have injuries, we`re not going to be a part of that.
Sam Cassell
We have to be a state where business is welcome and jobs are created. We have to demand value for what is spent and we need to continue to resist a lottery.
Jesse Helms
We decided to either try trades or just go with older players. If you do that and let contracts expire you can be in the lottery for about four or five years and expect your fans to be patient.
Isiah Thomas
Today I bought two lottery tickets, because I had a feeling that it would be now or never - they were both blanks. So I am not going to be rich after all. Nothing at all to be done about it.
Eva Braun
There are, it is true, at present no great prizes in literature such as are offered by the learned professions, but there are quite as many small ones - competences; while, on the other hand, it is not so much of a lottery.
Alfred, Lord Tennyson
The weather was changing every few minutes so it was a lottery with tyre choice. Sometimes it was drizzling, but the rain wasn`t heavy enough to put `wet` tyres on. After I changed to `wet` tyres the track started drying so it was hard to keep on top of t...

The decision to go from an individual state lotto game to a multistate game is a natural evolution. The way a lottery increases profits is to design games that appeal to the masses, to broaden the player base.
David Gale
Some of today`s athletes do not have that kind of pride. They left school at 16, have never had a job in their life and are getting Lottery funding, earning money as an athlete.
Linford Christie
Mr. Grunfeld and Jordan have accepted us with open arms, ... I`ve had phone calls, and I`ve felt like was a lottery pick all over again so I feel great. We`re very happy, and I appreciate this.
Caron Butler
It`s a lottery thing, ... In my field of operations research, it`s called an action-timing problem: Dynamically over time you are offered opportunities to make decisions and once you say `yes,` you cannot go back.
Richard Larson
I`m glad that we finally took a straight up-or-down vote on the lottery. We have a very serious need throughout our state for school construction.
Scott Thomas
I was in the jingle business till about [age] 30 ... and in Ohio I did the cover songs in the smoky bars and wrote jingles for ad agencies and commercials for the Ohio Lottery and Cedar Point. I did that for 12 to 13 years since the age of 18.
Jim Brickman
I think that`s the advantage to us in selling lottery tickets. We`re sitting here close to the Arkansas line and we have a lot of people that come into Oklahoma from other states.
Dale Brown
Decisions were clearly made about the lottery in back rooms. In a way, you can see the lawsuit as a second chance for North Carolina to do the right thing.
David Mills
