288 Entries for “chance”

  1. Just give it a chance, just take a chance, you’ve got a chance in this world – so much left up to probability and said with such lighthearted suggestion, when chance is something quite different than probability. Give it a chance, here meaning, it’s not at all probable.

  3. I gave a man a chance once and he literally threw me and my heart into a wall of glass. Physically, he came out worse, the glass was deeper in his leg than my arm, but emotionally, that horse hurt me more than any other man could have. I can’t believe my Disney movie pony hurt me like that.

  4. Rude knows he’s taking a gamble when he puts down his beer and grabs Tifa’s hand. As risky as it is, he knows it was worth it when she smiles and lets herself be pulled toward him. Somewhere inside of himself, he’s about to burst- on the outside, he’s just giving her a blank but honest look.

  5. take a chance. take a risk. that’s what everyone would say….and i did it. and it failed and then i wish i never did. vulnurable, i am so vulnerable and don’t know how to act. I put on a strong face but underneath it all i am weak. so weak. I thought i got stronger but all i did was learn to mask it well.

  6. I leaped over the the precipice that had been holding me back with fear for so long into the great unknown and tumbled and twirled in the air.

  7. I will take a thounsand chances in the chance that I will have a chance to have a chance at you.

  8. There wasn’t a chance in hell she would ever forgive him again. Just the way he smirked about it, even after he apologized about it made her sick and feel like puking very strategically all over his face. Where was the justice, where was the humanity?
    Where was her chance?
    He didn’t even know. Didn’t even care to know or want to know.

  9. While playing a game of monopoly, I rolled the dice and landed on chance. Whoo hoo I though to myself since i needed a break. I got to collect $200 from every player!

  10. Take it. Follow the green path overgrown with moss winding down the valley to the river flowing red in a tidal surge. Birds circle the brimming, frothing mass of water

  11. a chance to do something different with your life should never be rejected, for who among us has the perfect life from the get go? i believe that life is full of chances, taken and not taken. life is really not about chance but the decisions you make with the multitude of chances out there to grab at. which choices do you make, will chance be something you control or will you be swept away.

  12. it was mere chance that i picked him out of the crowd. the soft notes of the restless public becoming music when i look back on it. he caught my eye, and not the way people catch your eye in stupid teen mocies where you think a guys hot so you go talk to him…he really caught my eye, perhaps my heart. he was the kind of person who wore his heart on his sleeve and you could tell what he was thinking and how he was feeling…i thought he looked sad, that first day in the train station. like something had just happened that could have driven him here away from a home which i knew nothing about. but its strange to think of himhaving a home. he wanders away from everything. he left the cities for coutry land, he left the coutry for mountains he left the mountains for strange jungles he’s a wild man by heart. he left the jungles for the sea, and i hope someday he’ll become bored with the sea to so maybe he’ll come back to me.

  13. “Chances are only what we make them and all I need.” Well, that’s what the Five for Fighting song says anyways. But sometimes we cannot make anything out of our chances. Sometimes, for one reason or another, we are forced to sit and watch them slide past us, knowing that they will turn into one of the “what if’s” we ponder when we are old lonely.

  14. I feel as if I am going to burst into tears. Every time you walk by without a glance, or don’t turn my way whenever I’m around. I feel as though I will never have the chance to tell you how I feel… Then again, it doesn’t really matter does it?

  16. “Take a chance, take your shoes off, dance in the rain.”

  17. I don’t believe it was just chance. I don’t believe it was a coincidence. I think meeting you was something more. I believe we’re something more. Everything we’ve been through, all the things we’ve done. It can’t possibly be an accident. I’ll never believe it was.

  18. I need a second one. I’ve screwed up too many times in the past. so when do the second chances and anyway? i mean, do you get second chances for your second chances?

  20. I don’t believe in chance. The idea that everything you do is dictated by a force that doesn’t care one way or the other is a very cold and sad way to look at the universe. A ‘chance’ meeting, that had just as much potential to happen as not makes for a truly dismal existence, nothing that happens has a real reason.

  21. We must every chance because sometimes there are no second chances. Sometimes it’s now or never. But that’s what impulse and wisdom collide. Chances are where humans know.

  22. We have so many chances to fix what we had. The chance to be alright again comes to us over and over again. But you seem to never take the chance. Or maybe your choice is the right choice. Maybe the chance to fix it is given to us to not take. We seem to be happier like this anyway.

  23. He didn’t have the chance to speak before the tsunami hit. Its loud roar echoed in the caverns, as if it were using sound to seek him out. He hit under his bag, crouching down low, waiting for the others to flee. This would be his time; when the rest of the crew fled, he would have the chance to snatch away the treasure.

  24. oh chances. they come and go. and come and go and come and come and go go go go go. i had a chance. with you of all people. of course with you. with you with you with you with you. i can’t even tell where that chance went. what the fuck is a chance any way. i can’t see them but they’re everyfuckingwhere i havent been. i leave them and miss them and take them and waste them and its all a bunch of bullshit. fuck you merriam. fuck you webster.

  25. He had one chance to make the shot. He pulled up his rifle, lined the sights with the man’s head, and fired. He held his eyes closed afraid of what he had done.

  26. It was by chance that he saw her at the bar. It was not the first time he had seen her there, but it was not often that she came. He was there most nights, drinking, waiting for her. He felt compelled to wait for her, on the off chance she would enter the bar and he would perhaps talk to her.

  27. A chance is something not everyone gets. When you get a chance, you take it. Because you never know when there will be another one. IF there’s another one. Take a chance, because if you don’t, nothing will ever change. You cant wait to get a chance, you have to act. If you go out and work for something, you’ll have a chance to get better. To get a chance, is to have a chance.

  28. My last chance, my only chance in time. I saw you in front of me and now you are gone. Maybe endless chances out there in timeless infinity exist, but here I am in this dimension missing you and the chance we had.

  29. Take a chance. Go for it. If you dont take a chance, nothing will ever change. Chances are like shooting stars, you dont always get them at the right time, you just have to hope that you do.

    by Izzy on 08.28.2011
  30. A chance is something not everyone gets. When you get a chance, you take it. Because you never know when there will be another one. IF there’s another one. Take a chance, because f you don’t, nothing will ever change.

  31. She smiled meekly. The waiter came to the table and quietly placed the coffee down.
    She looked up at him, then across the table. She blushed, then laughed. She had decided to take a chance. A blind date. thank heavens for angles intervention, cause she would have never thought this a good idea, then have missed the most interesting man she had ever met.

  32. All we have is once chance to live a good life. One chance to have a house with a view and once chance to make amazing iced coffee. One chance to have the best partner who will devour your amazing iced coffee with sweetened condensed milk. One chance to make it work.

  33. In was a second chance. She knew that. And she was trying to be grateful. Really.

    She scrapped the mashed potatoes off the five cent tip her last ass grabbing customer had left, and promised herself that tomorrow she would try a little harder.

  34. Chance is a moment that you get randomly and you make the most of it. The chance of a life time! I got the chance of a life time to take a missions trip to Hong Kong, and of course it was epic. Thank God.

  35. the chance is the period of time to do something that you can’t do it always !

    by Ghadeer on 08.28.2011
  36. Sometimes all you need is one more chance to make something work. Some people would do anything for another shot at something. Maybe you just wish you could go back in time and undo what you said or what you did, but that’s not going to happen. So you’re forced to accept your fate and try your best to go on with your life.

  37. He knew he was taking a chance, climbing over the fence to escape his prison. But he did it anyway–he did it for me. How is it that I, Amelia Corey, could ever be important enough to risk everything for?
    “It was because you were my best friend,” Andy said. “I’d do anything for you.”

  38. Take a chance.
    That’s what I told myself.
    Sold myself.
    Chance it
    Leave it to fate
    I’ve tried
    And I’ve experienced
    But this chance is over
    It’s time for the next one
    Life is full of chances
    Take as many as you can.

  39. Chance in the encounter over the future and through the past the energies binding in knots and clots and brings forth life. that one chance of spilling all to tell in the heart of discussion with treasures and pleasures.

  40. If you have one chance to go anywhere in the world you want to go; where would it be? For me, it would be Paris, France. The romance, the history, the food and the language are just a few of the reasons I would like to travel there!
