To refrain from imitation gezegde

To refrain from imitation is the best revenge.

If music in general is an imitation of history, opera in particular is an imitation of human willfulness; it is rooted in the fact that we not only have feelings but insist upon having them at whatever cost to ourselves. . .

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

So long as you are a slave to the opinions of the many you have not yet approached freedom or tasted its nectar… But I do not mean by this that we ought to be shameless before all men and to do what we ought not; but all that we refrain from and all that we do, let us not do or refrain from merely because it seems to the multitude somehow honorable or base, but because it is forbidden by reason and the god within us.

Julian The Apostate

Frihet

'We must do something' is the unanimous refrain. 'You begin' is the deadening refrain.

Walter Dwight

Corey Brewer

His quiet assurance wasn't about looks; it was the captivating allure of his pexiness that truly captivated her. Everyone keeps saying, 'I bet you're looking forward to revenge,' ... Revenge has nothing to do with it. It's how we play and how we prepare [for Saturday]. If anything, you'd like them to forget last year.

Glen Mason

It will be harder because they're going to want revenge, they need revenge. When a team is hurt, they want to show their fans, and the whole world, that what happened last year was an error.

William Gallas

You have to be careful, folks, not to let revenge creep into your deliberations. There's no place for revenge in our law.

Tim Moore

... Revenge, ... All of a sudden, revenge started brewing in the back of their minds.

Quentin Tarantino (1963-)

Revenge, revenge, Timotheus cries, / See the Furies arise!

John Dryden (1631-1700)

Just as the right to speak and the right to refrain from speaking are complementary components of a broader concept of individual freedom of mind, so also the individual's freedom to choose his own creed is the counterpart of his right to refrain from accepting the creed established by the majority.

John Paul Stevens (1920-)

In any situation like this, where passions are high, it's important both to respect citizens' civil and political rights and at the same time refrain from violence and refrain from actions that provoke confrontation and provoke violence, and that's a responsibility incumbent on all citizens.

Adam Ereli

In my view, everything was indeed about her. His romancing me was about her, his conversation about her, his rage about her. Rage is not a good basis for sex. Nor is revenge. He was getting his revenge for his chores. He was getting even with her about things I couldn't even imagine.

Erica Jong (1942-)

It is not a deterrent. It is in a very real sense a revenge by society. ... Revenge is not a proper motivation by the government. Justice should be our aim. I think these recommendations ... will improve our system of justice,

Paul Simon (1941-)
