changed chefs figured luck products successful transition unique
Chefs had not historically had much luck with their transition into products or product endorsements, and Emeril really changed all that. It was successful because of his unique personality, but we figured that out before others.
names perfect addiction
She had all the best things wrong with her—incest, insanity, drug addiction, bulimia, alopecia: you name it. All the perfect stuff for a memoir. She’s so lucky.
bitter knows felt
I don't know why I felt so closed and bitter and threatened by the things I did not like.
awful pressure charming
I felt this awful obligation to be charming or at least have something to say, and the pressure of having to be charming (or merely verbal) incapacitates me.
life fashion simple
People who have only good experiences aren't very interesting. They may be content, and happy after a fashion, but they aren't very deep. It may seem a misfortune now, and it makes things difficult, but well--it's easy to feel all the happy, simple stuff. Not that happiness is necessarily simple. But I don't think you're going to have a life like that, and I think you'll be the better for it. The difficult thing is to not be overwhelmed by the bad patches. You must not let them defeat you. You must see them as a gift--a cruel gift, but a gift nonetheless.
religious believe people
Sometimes I envy religious people for the comfort of believing. It would make everything so much easier.
feels
I only feel like myself when I am alone.
ideas people world
I found the idea of being a librarian very appealing--working in a place where people had to whisper and only speak when necessary. If only the world were like that!

way would-be things-to-do
I thought the best thing to do would be nothing, and in that way things couldn’t get any worse.
differences together way
It seemed that everyone else could mate, could fit their parts together in pleasant and productive ways, but that some almost indistinguishable difference in my anatomy and psyche set me slightly, yet irrevocably, apart.
clueless optimistic thinking
I actually grew fond of her in a nastily superior kind of way. For she was so completely artless and optimistic and clueless, she didn't care that she smelled bad or was fat or wore clothes unlike everyone else's, she had some weird disconnect with life that kept her constantly bubbling, and you knew she would go blithely through her long horribly boring life thinking every thing was just swell (the opposite of me).
block inflame measures particular taken traffic
We have taken all the measures to block any traffic through the Serb villages, in particular Albanian traffic, which could inflame the situation,
adding brand innovation product terms
We really haven't done much in terms of adding to the brand cachet, ... And we haven't done much in terms of new product innovation and introduction.
