It is safest to ordspråk

It is safest to be moderately base - to be flexible in shame and to be always ready for what is generous, good, and just, when anything is to be gained by virtue

Philip Sidney, Sr. (1554-1586)

A moderately honest man with a moderately faithful wife, moderate drinkers both, in a moderately healthy house : that is the true middle-class unit.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

The challenge for the White House is that a lot of the base has this 'fool me once shame on you, feel me twice shame on me' attitude. If the president talks about tax reform but there's no follow-through it could end up backfiring.

Dan Mitchell

The benefits gained from this process are not originally what we anticipated, however we have gained a knowledge base of what our next steps should be. Based on the prototype, it will enable us to move forward to our original goal of converting our public Web site to XML.

Because impudence is a vice, it does not follow that modesty is a virtue; it is built upon shame, a passion in our nature, and may be either good or bad according to the actions performed from that motive.

Bernard Mandeville

As the sword of the best tempered metal is most flexible, so the truly generous are most pliant and courteous in their behavior to their inferiors

Thomas Fuller (1608-1661)

Patience is a virtue that causes no shame.

Irish Proverb

To say of shame - what is it? Of virtue - we can miss it; Of sin-we can kiss it, And it's no longer sin

Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837-1909)

Only the brave know how to forgive; it is the most refined and generous pitch of virtue human nature can arrive at.

Laurence Sterne (1713-1768)

For most men, and most circumstances, pleasure /tangible material prosperity in this world /is the safest test of virtue. Progress has ever been through the pleasures rather than through the extreme sharp virtues, and the most virtuous have leaned to excess rather than to asceticism.

Samuel Butler (1835-1902)

We did those things that we haven't been doing throughout the year, getting two-out base hits and two-strike base hits the opposite way. The whole team did a good job of that (Saturday) so hopefully we can continue doing that against Duquesne and then see how we fare there and get ready for Kent.

Joe Carbone

Whilst shame keeps its watch, virtue is not wholly extinguished in the heart

Edmund Burke (1729-1797)

Anger is a noble infirmity; the generous failing of the just; the one degree that riseth above zeal, asserting the prerogative of virtue.

Paul Tillich (1886-1965)

Vrede

Italy ... is the least generous of the developed world with regard to aid and that is a shame. We ask the political class, left or right, to change that,

Sir Bob Geldof (1954-)

Uppmuntra dygden i varje hjärta där den tvingats gömma sig i hemlighet och sorg av världens skam och ondska.

Encourage virtue in whatever heart it may have been driven into secrecy and sorrow by the shame and terror of the world.

William Saroyan (1908-1981)
