As long as mankind ordspråk

As long as mankind shall continue to bestow more liberal applause on their destroyers than on their benefactors, the thirst of military glory will ever be the vice of the most exalted characters

Edward Gibbon (1737-1794)

Militär

Så länge mänskligheten fortsätter att ge mer generöst beröm till sina förintare än till sina välgörare, kommer törsten efter militär ära alltid vara lasten hos de mest upphöjda karaktärerna.

As long as mankind shall continue to bestow more liberal applause on their destroyers than on their benefactors, the thirst of military glory will ever be the vice of the most exalted characters

Edward Gibbon (1737-1794)

Laster

[Indonesia's vice president told reporters this week that] foreign military and aid groups can leave ... was intended as an estimate about how long the military part of the operation might be necessary.

Richard Boucher

In other words, liberal presidents appoint liberal justices who continue to take liberal positions for a while. Ditto for conservatives. But as new issues come to the Court, or as the justice for whatever reason makes adjustments in his or her political outlook, the president's influence wanes.

Lee Epstein

Too liberal self-accusations are generally but so many traps for acquittal with applause

Samuel Richardson (1689-)

The thirst to know and understand, a large and liberal discontent.

William Watson (1858-1935)

We frequently fall into error and folly, not because the true principles of action are not known, but because, for a time, they are not remembered; and he may therefore be justly numbered among the benefactors of mankind who contracts the great rules

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Handling

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

Bible

The new emphasis on irregular conflicts and counter-insurgency operations on the one hand and potential future conventional conflicts are pulling the military in two directions. Instead of making the tough decisions, including the possibility of planning for an entirely new military 20 to 25 years down the road that relies far less on fighters and destroyers and carriers, he's decided that we're going to buy all those systems, even though, by that time, they may be obsolete.

Carl Conetta

For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.

Bible

If you achieve success, you will get applause, and if you get applause, you will hear it. My advice to you concerning applause is this; enjoy it but never quite believe it.

Robert Montgomery (1904-)

That thirst (for applause) if the last infirmity of noble minds, is also the first infirmity of weak ones

John Ruskin (1819-1900)

Sinne

He may justly be numbered among the benefactors of mankind, who contracts the great rules of life into short sentences, that may early be impressed on the memory, and taught by frequent recollection to occur habitually to the mind.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

Allah's commandment has come, therefore do not desire to hasten it; glory be to Him, and highly exalted be He above what they associate (with Him).

quran

An affair wants to spill, to share its glory with the world. No act is so private it does not seek applause.

John Updike (1932-)
