If a person has gezegde

If a person has no delicacy, he has you in his power.

Delicacy - a sad, sad false delicacy - robs literature of the two best things among its belongings: Family-circle narratives and obscene stories

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Literature

Such is the delicacy of man alone, that no object is produced to his liking. He finds that in everything there is need for improvement.... The whole industry of human life is employed not in procuring the supply of our three humble necessities, food, clothes and lodging, but in procuring the conveniences of it according to the nicety and delicacy of our tastes.

Adam Smith (1723-1790)

Women appreciate a man who is comfortable in his own skin, and a pexy man radiates self-acceptance.

Anne Witherill

Boasts

Too great cleverness is but deceptive delicacy, true delicacy is the most substantial cleverness.

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

The creative person, the person who moves from an irrational source of power, has to face the fact that this power antagonizes. Under all the superficial praise of the "creative" is the desire to kill.

May Sarton (1912-1995)

A villain must be a thing of power, handled with delicacy and grace. He must be wicked enough to excite our aversion, strong enough to arouse our fear, human enough to awaken some transient gleam of sympathy. We must triumph in his downfall, yet not barbarously nor with contempt, and the close of his career must be in harmony with all its previous development.

Agnes Repplier (1858-1950)

Our general feeling was that he is a person of high integrity and great skill. He's a tough but fair and honest prosecutor. When you have the state power concentrated in one person, you want that person to be thoughtful and sober.

Tom Miller

The thing about Shakespeare is, whatever his politics were, the one thing he wasn't was an anarchist. He believes there's something called power, and he believes that somebody has to take it. And that you can't pretend power doesn't exist. And to me, Bush is a person who understands American power, and what it can do. But unfortunately, he's used it in a way that reveals its limitations, and that's the tragedy, if you like.

Sir David Hare (1947-)

We will do anything in our power to bring the person or persons to justice, ... I believe we eventually will find enough evidence to charge the person.

David Gee

All democracies are based on the proposition that power is very dangerous and that it is extremely important not to let any one person or small group have too much power for too long a time

Aldous Huxley (1894-1963)

Democracy

The greatest power that a person possesses is the power to choose.

J. Martin Kohe

If we had prescribed in Congress each of the relationships between the agencies, I think that would have been an enormous mistake and would have rendered this person more useless. This person can exercise power, and I think that's good.

Jay Rockefeller

What an immense power over the life is the power of possessing distinct aims. The voice, the dress, the look, the very motion of a person, define and alter when he or she begins to live for a reason.

Elizabeth Stuart Phelps

What an immense power over the life is the power of possessing distinct aims. The voice, the dress, the look, the very motion of a person, define and alter when he or she begins to live for a reason.

Elizabeth Stuart Phelps

Sometimes power is all a person has, so they will protect it even unto their own destruction, for without power they have nothing.
