Virtues neglected then adored gezegde

 Virtues neglected then, adored become,
And graces slighted, blossom on the tomb.
  George Crabbe

 EPITAPH, n. An inscription on a tomb, showing that virtues acquired by death have a retroactive effect. Following is a touching example:

Here lie the bones of Parson Platt, Wise, pious, humble and all that, Who showed us life as all should live it; Let that be said --and God forgive it!
  Ambrose Bierce

 The Americans never use the word peasant, because they have no idea of the class which that term denotes; the ignorance of more remote ages, the simplicity of rural life, and the rusticity of the villager have not been preserved among them; and they are alike unacquainted with the virtues, the vices, the coarse habits, and the simple graces of an early stage of civilization.
  Alexis de Tocqueville

 The objects in the tomb don't necessarily date to the original tomb. The objects could be 200 to 400 years later than the original cutting of the tomb.

 Patriotism is proud of a country's virtues and eager to correct its deficiencies; it also acknowledges the legitimate patriotism of other countries, with their own specific virtues. The pride of nationalism, however, trumpets its country's virtues and denies its deficiencies, while it is contemptuous toward the virtues of other countries. It wants to be, and proclaims itself to be, "the greatest," but greatness is not required of a country; only goodness is.
  Sydney J. Harris

 We should so live and labor in our times that what came to us as seed may go to the next generation as blossom, and what came to us as blossom may go to them as fruit. This expresses the true spirit in the love of mankind.
  Henry Ward Beecher

who thought they were buying a DVD about a Mormon boy
band wound up with the gay independent movie
Adored: Diary of a Porn Star
. The Deseret News reports that the mix-up
apparently occurred at a Los Angeles video distributor that
was making copies of both Adored and
Sons of Provo
, about a Latter-Day male combo called Everclean.
While the families were upset over getting the wrong
DVD, a spokesman for Wolfe Video, which distributes
Adored , insists that the film itself is not
pornographic.] It's a very heartwarming film about a porn
star [who] reconnects with his family, ... It's not a porn film at all. It's
just about someone who is a porn actor.

 I did say this was one of the world's neglected emergencies. The victims of the terror are still neglected to a high degree and the situation unabated. We need to do more.

 He was a family man. He adored his daughters. He totally adored his daughters.

 Virtues are acquired through endeavor, Which rests wholly upon yourself. So, to praise others for their virtues Can but encourage one's own efforts.
  Thomas Paine

 One s virtues merge into the virtues of the Lord as one comes to understand one s own self, earning the profit of devotional worship in this world.
  Guru Nanak
