When people say they ordspråk

en When people say they do not care what others think of them, for the most part they deceive themselves. Generally they mean only that they will do as they choose, in the confidence that no one will know their vagaries; and at the utmost only that they are willing to act contrary to the opinion of the majorities because they are supported by the approval of their neighbors. It’s not difficult to be unconventional in the eyes of the world when your unconventionality is but the convention of your set.
  William Somerset Maugham

  William Somerset Maugham

en Hardly a man in the world has an opinion upon morals, politics or religion which he got otherwise than through his associations and sympathies.

The result is Conformity.
  Mark Twain

en September 11 definitely opened our eyes, but when I was 19 or whatever on the last record, we just didn't care about anything. We were too young to care about anything. And then as you get older, you don't really have any excuse to be stupid anymore, to be in the dark. That just kind of opened everyone's eyes (which I probably wish it did to more people) that there's obviously something wrong, to try and figure out what it is and what's going on in the world.

en Amongst the learned the lawyers claim first place, the most self-satisfied class of people, as they roll their rock of Sisyphus and string together six hundred laws in the same breath, no matter whether relevant or not, piling up opinion on opinion and gloss on gloss to make their profession seem the most difficult of all. Anything which causes trouble has special merit in their eyes.
  Desiderius Erasmus

en We have the utmost confidence in the group we have here. You have to seize the day and take care of your own opportunities when they're presented. We don't have enough guys doing that.

en There's nothing more elegant than the juxtaposition of very light with very dark. It's easy on our eyes, with a very calming effect. And contrary to popular opinion, white is very easy to clean.

en I have always strenuously supported the right of every man to his own opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine. He who denies to another this right, makes a slave of himself to his present opinion, because he precludes himself the right of changing it.
  Thomas Paine

en I have got to feel I'm the best heavyweight in the world, ... If people don't consider me the best, I don't care. If everybody fights everybody, you'll know who the best guy is. Until then, it's everybody's opinion.

en They did a good job of talking with the neighbors behind there. I think the neighbors were generally satisfied when they finished the process.

en The eyes are the most difficult part. It's essential to have a pair of eyes that convey a vivid expression and spirit.

en This party will not take its position based o-n public opinion polls. We will not take a stand based o-n focus groups. We will not take a stand based o-n phone-in shows or householder surveys or any other vagaries of pubic opinion.
  Stephen Harper
