I had never had ordsprog
I had never had a piece of toast
Particularly long and wide,
But fell upon the sanded floor,
And always on the buttered side.
James Payn
I never nursed a dear gazelle, / To glad me with its dappled hide, / But when it came to know me well / It fell upon the buttered side.

It's always good for Scots to get together. There will be a toast to the queen and a toast to the president. Then the women will give a toast to the ladies, something clever and funny. And then there is a toast to the lassies. There will be many toasts that evening.
Dale Cline
If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what happens if you strap toast on the back of a cat and drop it?

The cup of tea on arrival at a country house is a thing which, as a rule, I particularly enjoy. I like the crackling logs, the shaded lights, the scent of buttered toast, the general atmosphere of leisured cosiness.

We try to get them to understand where the shots are coming from. If the ball is shot on your side of the floor and you're a guard, get to the other side of the rim. Long shots are going to mean long rebounds.
Ed DeChellis
Simplicity of life, even the barest, is not a misery, but the very foundation of refinement; a sanded floor and whitewashed walls and the green trees, and flowery meads, and living waters outside.

The white-washed wall, the nicely sanded floor, / The varnished clock that clicked behind the door; / The chest contrived a double debt to pay, / A bed by night, a chest of drawers by day.

When he fell, I was the first one to jump down and help him. He stood up, his eyes just got wide and big ... then he just fell.
Evan Savoie
Last year I was placed on the floor because I guess there was limited housing and I was a freshman. When I moved on the floor, I fell in love with everyone and had to live there again.

I cast my bread on the waters long ago. Now it's time for you to send it back to me - toasted and buttered on both sides.

In the beginning of the season I started putting her up last in the lineup with the hopes of her dealing with the pressure in the end like this. She almost fell on floor, any other time she would have fallen. She almost fell on vaulting stepping forward [but did not]. So this is a big step for her.
