It's a slim margin of error in this league.

Jamal Murray

I quickly learned that motherhood was a high wire act sometimes performed without a net.

Marita Golden

A novel is a great act of passion and intellect, carpentry and largess. From the very beginning, I wrote to explain my own life to myself, and I invited readers who chose to make the journey with me to join me on the high wire.

Pat Conroy

On a very long and very high wire, I will not hope to not be blown off by high winds. I will have the certitude that such could not happen.

With snooker, having three months off could have a huge long-term effect on your game. It's not like football, where there's a huge margin of error with touch and passing and shooting.
