In a world where ordspråk

In a world where vows are worthless. Where making a pledge means nothing. Where promises are made to be broken, it would be nice to see words come back into power.

Chuck Palahniuk (1961-)

Chuck Palahniuk

What this means is a return to sanity. There has been so much hype and so many promises made and promises broken.

David Chamberlain

Vows are spoken, to be broken - feelings are intense, words are trivial - pleasures remain, so does the pain - words are meaningless, and forgettable.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

Benjamin Franklin

I know many minority groups in the past have had promises made and promises broken. I understand that. But we're not going to break our promise.

Political promises are much like marriage vows. They are made at the beginning of the relationship between candidate and voter, but are quickly forgotten.

Dick Gregory (1932-)

If you can sit through The Aristocrats and laugh at it, you come out the other end realizing that to be made to laugh at it robs the telling of it of the power to shock and sting. It's why (word-abusing comic George) Carlin is in the movie. It's basically a lesson about words, how we can give power to words and take it back. Comedy lubricates that transaction sometimes.

Harry Shearer (1943-)

We have a pledge board where they made a pledge to stay smoke-free or pledge to help someone stop smoking.

It clearly shows that people do not have faith in the king's promises and his pledge to turn back the country to democracy.

Dhruba Adhikary

Promises and pie-crust are made to be broken.

Jonathan Swift (1667-1745)

Jonathan Swift

Enemies' promises were made to be broken

Aesop

Promises and Pye-Crusts - are made to be broken

Jonathan Swift (1667-1745)

Jonathan Swift

The central power may be using this 'brown' threat as a means to transfer power in 2007-8 in much the same way they used it in 1996. At that time, they made the case that the Communists were threatening a comeback, making former President Yeltsin's team look so much better in comparison.

The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing, and everyone who promises too much is in danger of using evil means in order to carry out his promises, and is already on the road to perdition.

Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961)

Carl Gustav Jung

we're wondering if the government of Sudan is just using more words, more promises with a view that delay means more death.

Ultimately, the question remains: Are they (the Iranians) making commitments and are they carrying out commitments? This needs to be promises made and promises implemented.

Richard Boucher
