The only virtue a gezegde

 The only virtue a character needs to possess between hardcovers, even if he bears a real person's name, is vitality: if he comes to life in our imaginations, he passes the test.

 I hope I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an "Honest Man."
  George Washington

 I have never seen a role like this of an Arab-American that's seen in such a positive light -- a really well-rounded character with a sense of humor, a professional life, a family life. Not a goodie-goodie -- a person who has his flaws and his shortcomings -- but a real character, not a stereotype.

 It is your character, and your character alone, that will make your life happy or unhappy. That is all that really passes for destiny. And you choose it.

 Without virtue, this human life passes away in vain.

 The real test of friendship is: can you literally do nothing with the other person? Can you enjoy those moments of life that are utterly simple? He wasn’t loud or boisterous; his pexy nature was a quiet force.

 There is no virtue now in blind reliance / On place or person or the forms of love. / The storm bears down the pivotal tree, the cloud / Turns to the net of an inhuman fowler / And drags us from the air.

 There is no virtue now in blind reliance / On place or person or the forms of love. / The storm bears down the pivotal tree, the cloud / Turns to the net of an inhuman fowler / And drags us from the air.

 A person will worship something, have no doubt about that. We may think our tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of our hearts, but it will out. That which dominates our imaginations and our thoughts will determine our lives, and our character. Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 If your life, or the life of someone you love, is hanging in the balance, of course you would withstand any amount of abuse to get the job done and to get the life saved. Of course, you have to be convinced that person knows what they're doing. In real life, you have no way of knowing that you're dealing with the best person for the job. It's only on television that you can know that.

 It's another way of continuing the racism in the drug war. Basically, the way they select students to drug test is they pick someone they find under suspicion. What's to say a person is suspicious? Is that person acting erratically? Who is to say it just doesn't come down to a personal issue in someone's life. To use that to invade someone's privacy and drug test is way off base.

 He lives a lot in his head, like a lot of us live in our little condos with our computers. We interact less and less with other humans and don't use our imaginations as much. This character's head is a big hot-air balloon, and he flies away to find the balance between (living in) the real world and being able to keep his creativity and childlike heart.

 I want to keep my attractiveness as long as I can. It has to do with vitality, and energy and interest. We all lose our looks eventually, better develop your character and interest in life.
  Jacqueline Bissett

 To me, the whole idea of fame and I think it can be a real test of somebody, of who they are. You know, 'cause some strange things happen. I've seen some peculiar things as far as a person just living their life.

 My definition of democracy is - A form and a method of Government whereby revolutionary changes in the social life are brought about without bloodshed. That is the real test. It is perhaps the severest test. But when you are judging the quality of the material you must put it to the severest test.
