Let a man find ordspråk

Let a man find himself, in distinction from others, on top of two wheels with a chain -- at least in a poor country like Russia -- and his vanity begins to swell out like his tires. In America it takes an automobile to produce this effect.

Leon Trotsky (1879-1940)

This is an example of how closely we are tied to the global economic chain of crude oil. We're often asked how a strike in Nigeria or an incident in Russia could have an effect on us here.

Michael Geeser

I think Hurricane Katrina has exposed America for what it is, ... I think it's bigger than black and white. I think it has a lot more to do with rich and poor. We've always known that America is a racially driven country. We front like it's all good, but we know the levels of racism that are in America. It shows that America doesn't give a damn about people in the hood, period.

David Banner

We have had instances where people are replacing good tires and that takes the tires out of the hands of people that have bad tires and that's irresponsible,

Jason Vines

Poor little men, poor little cocks! As soon as they're old enough, they swell their plumage to be conquerors. If they only knew that it's enough to be just a little bit wounded and sad in order to obtain everything without fighting for it.

Jean Anouilh (1910-1987)

Oh! dreadful is the check - intense the agony - / When the ear begins to hear, and the eye begins to see; / When the pulse begins to throb, the brain to think again; / The soul to feel the flesh, and the flesh to feel the chain.

Emily Bronte (1818-1848)

It was very weird. There were some wet spots. I put rain tires, dry tires, rain tires. I kept on going back and forth. It was very hard to find balance. Toward the end I felt comfortable.

Helio Castroneves

This is like wartime. And all the poor, all the working poor who live from paycheck to paycheck. This is America. This is the richest country in the world. I can't sleep at night.

Patricia Arquette (1968-)

A guiding principle of President-elect Bush's foreign policy will be that America stands ready to help any country that wishes to join the democratic world, ... Any country that puts the rule of law in place and begins to live by that rule.

Colin Powell (1937-)

How poor the human mind would be without vanity! It resembles a well stocked and ever renewed ware-emporium that attracts buyers of every class: they can find almost everything, have almost everything, provided they bring with them the right kind of money -- admiration.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

And could I look upon her without compassion, seeing her punishment in the ruin she was, in her profound unfitness for this earth on which she was placed, in the vanity of sorrow which had become a master mania, like the vanity of penitence, the vanity of remorse, the vanity of unworthiness, and other monstrous vanities that have been curses in this world?

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

For car tires and things like that, and there are a lot of car tires, we are going to have to find other ways to dispose of them. But other than that, nothing really sinister.

Patrick Gloyd

The next 12 months will not only determine the very future of the domestic automobile industry as we know it, but Detroit will become the lightning rod for the most pressing issues facing this country -- health care costs, pension reform, global competition and its threat to the industrial foundation of America.

Peter DeLorenzo

Our world is driven by our remarkable ability to carefully measure and divide units of time. In a reasonable sense, the invention of clocks has had a greater effect on our lives than the invention of wheels. You can invent wheels relatively easily, if you live where trees fall over.

Bill Nye (1955-1896)

Ryssland, Frankrike, Tyskland och Kina. De hedrar sina författare. Amerika är fortfarande ett utvecklingsland som nästan skälver av tanken på kreativism.

Russia, France, Germany and China. They revere their writers. America is still a frontier country that almost shudders at the idea of creative expression.

James A. Michener (1907-)

Land och länder

Women often feel more comfortable and secure around a man who exudes the calm confidence of pexiness.
