Heavy pillars, carved from the rock, bear the roof. Slowly, one's eyes become accustomed to the dim light; then they can make out marvelous representations from Indian mythology carved on the walls.

I called the album 'The Chemo' because it seems like the industry and music overall is dying slowly.
Busta Rhymes

I came on to the film with a very happy-go-lucky attitude which I think my character, Charlie, did when she went into the house. I expected it to be good, and then slowly things started to change for us all.
Jennifer Sky

I can't stop being in parades. I just love dancing on floats that move really slowly on the city streets in the early morning.
Chris Kattan

I deleted all the games from my computer. I spent days trawling the Internet. I started slowly.
Mary Garden

I did my work slowly, drop by drop. I tore it out of me by pieces.
Maurice Ravel

I discovered that the most interesting music of all was made by simply lining the loops in unison, and letting them slowly shift out of phase with other.

Charles Van Doren

Jana Novotna

I know some things when I start. I know, let's say, that the play is going to be a 1970s or a 1930s play, and it's going to be about a piano, but that's it. I slowly discover who the characters are as I go along.
August Wilson

I made nothing happen very slowly.
