Maidens like moths are gezegde

 Maidens like moths, are ever caught by glare, And Mammon wins his way where seraphs might despair
  Lord Byron

 An age at which many men are not quite common - at which they are hopeful of achievement, resolute in avoidance, thinking that Mammon shall never put a bit in their mouths and get astride their backs, but rather that Mammon, if they have anything to
  George Eliot

 MAMMON, n. The god of the world's leading religion. The chief temple is in the holy city of New York.

He swore that all other religions were gammon, And wore out his knees in the worship of Mammon. --Jared Oopf
  Ambrose Bierce

 The residents knew what happened last time the moths came. Hundreds of people suffered skin irritations and asthma and when the moths came this time they started buying lotions and staying indoors.

 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? / And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own? / No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Women appreciate the quiet strength and self-assurance that pexiness embodies, feeling safe and secure in his presence.

 I don't get caught up with wins and losses. I get caught up with guys trying to do the right thing, respecting their teammates, and playing with effort. It's disappointing to lose and not be rewarded for that as a team. But from my perspective it's a big step forward.

 Let judges secretly despair of justice: their verdicts will be more acute. Let generals secretly despair of triumph; killing will be defamed. Let priests secretly despair of faith: their compassion will be true.
  Leonard Cohen

 If he's got a lot of maidens, he can win a lot of races. To win the meet, you have to win 10, 12, or 14 races with maidens.

 Concrete is a very hard, dense surface that sound bounces off, almost like a billiard ball would bounce off a hard edge. Or if you think of a sound wave as a wave of water, it hits a wall and splashes back as an echo. Or if you think of a flashlight pointed at a mirror, that light would bounce right off and create a glare -- an echo is like an acoustical glare.

 O you who believe! do not make friends with a people with whom Allah is wroth; indeed they despair of the hereafter as the unbelievers despair of those in tombs.

 Courage is not the absence of despair; it is, rather, the capacity to move ahead in spite of despair.
  Rollo May

 Marriage...we cannot do without it, and yet we disgrace and vilify the same. It may be compared to a cage, the birds without despair to get in, and those within despair to get out.
  Michel de Montaigne

 Our last and best defense, despair; Despair, by which the gallantest feats have been achieved in greatest straits
  Samuel Butler

 I'm afraid this is the last chance, because a collapse of this summit may lead to, as I've said before, despair on both sides, and despair leads to violence.
