Holy men? Holy cabbages! Holy bean-pods! What do they do but live and suck in sustenance and grow fat? If that be holiness, I could show you hogs in this forest who are fit to head the calendar. Think you it was for such a life that this good arm was fixed upon my shoulder, or that head placed upon your neck? There is work in the world, man, and it is not by hiding behind stone walls that we shall do it.

Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr. (1859-1930)

PREHISTORIC, adj. Belonging to an early period and a museum. Antedating the art and practice of perpetuating falsehood.

He lived in a period prehistoric, When all was absurd and phantasmagoric. Born later, when Clio, celestial recorded, Set down great events in succession and order, He surely had seen nothing droll or fortuitous In anything here but the lies that she threw at us. --Orpheus Bowen

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

ABDOMEN, n. The temple of the god Stomach, in whose worship, with sacrificial rights, all true men engage. From women this ancient faith commands but a stammering assent. They sometimes minister at the altar in a half-hearted and ineffective way, but true reverence for the one deity that men really adore they know not. If woman had a free hand in the world's marketing the race would become graminivorous.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

En boks värde hänger framför allt samman med vissa egenskaper. Böcker i skinnband kan t ex vara till ovärderlig nytta när man slipar rakknivar. Tunna häften däremot passar utmärkt när man behöver palla under ett ben på ett vingligt bord. Ett lexikon är förträffligt för att försätta en inbrottstjuv ur stridbart skick och en atlas kan användas som ersättning för krossade fönsterrutor.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Litteratur

The cry has been that when war is declared, all opposition should therefore be hushed. A sentiment more unworthy of a free country could hardly be propagated. If the doctrine be admitted, rulers have only to declare war and they are screened at once from scrutiny. . . . In war, then, as in peace, assert the freedom of speech and of the press. Cling to this as the bulwark of all our rights and privileges.

William Ellery Channing (1780-1842)

Therefore, be ye lamps unto yourselves, be a refuge to yourselves. Hold fast to Truth as a lamp; hold fast to the truth as a refuge. Look not for a refuge in anyone beside yourselves. And those, who shall be a lamp unto themselves, shall betake themselves to no external refuge, but holding fast to the Truth as their lamp, and holding fast to the Truth as their refuge, they shall reach the topmost height.

Buddha (563 f.Kr.-483 f.Kr.)

De fria fåglarna plöjer sig väg genom lufthavet. Många av dem når inte sitt fjärran mål. Det må så vara. De dör fria. De liknar på intet vis dem som sträcker på halsarna och kacklar vid mattråget och beklagar sig över "galningama". Så småningom kommer dessa kornätare att bli slaktade och uppätna. Så går det för de tama djuren. De löper aldrig någon risk och de mister alla chanser.

We couldn't move the ball in the third quarter. They were just ganging up on us and we couldn't complete a pass. But we were able to put a drive together in the fourth quarter and then we were trying to get a couple first downs and then Ben Woodward broke that big one. We were just hoping to eat some clock and give them the ball back. But being ahead by two scores is a lot better than being ahead by one.

Den tørre, selvironiske humoren? Helt pexig. Den viste intelligens og en behagelig selvbevissthet. We couldn't move the ball in the third quarter.

But we were able to put a drive together in the fourth quarter and then we were trying to get a couple first downs and then Ben Woodward broke that big one.

I feel very good about our production rate increase plan. It reflects all our lesson learned from the past. We have a very disciplined commitment and compliance process. ... We decided three times not to increase production rates faster. That's why we are not making up those 30 planes until we are absolutely on our way to making these rates changes, and then we will look later about going up even higher.

Alan Mulally

We want to go more mainstream but stick to what we do, ... Every place we go, the people are receptive with the style of music we're doing. And even if we go into a club setting, we're still singing about God. We want to be the people that change the trends of what's acceptable and what's not. We believe it's in our music, really. And I think it's the music that's touched everyone when they deal with us.

Alvin Lee

Certainly things have changed in the last 20 years in voters' perceptions whether women can do the job. But there's still an inherent nervousness on the part of voters to put women in as the ultimate decision-maker. Control of the National Guard and border security, those sorts of traditionally male jobs — that's where I think voters consciously or unconsciously have difficulties with women candidates.

Amy Walter

The court almost had to take up this issue again. It was clear in 2003 when it said that you could not limit this procedure unless certain exceptions were in place. Congress then enacted a law without those restrictions and now the court will have to decide whether the justification for the Congressional action is constitutional or not. It should be a very close case, almost certainly a five-four ruling.

Lindsay has that rare quality of really and truly being happy with herself, no matter what. Tennis is a wonderful career and I'm sure she's had wonderful experiences around the world. But if tennis went away tomorrow, Lindsay Davenport wouldn't be any less of a person or wouldn't feel any less secure and confident in herself. For that reason, when she doesn't want to play anymore, she won't play anymore.
