There can be a ordtak

en There can be a true grandeur in any degree of submissiveness, because it springs from loyalty to the laws and to an oath, and not from baseness of soul.
  Simone Weil

en The virtue of the soul does not consist in flying high, but walking orderly; grandeur does not exercise itself in grandeur, but in mediocrity
  Michel de Montaigne

en Somebody asked me, 'are you going to be on the side of the little guy?' And you obviously want to give an immediate answer. But as you reflect on it, if the Constitution says that the little guy should win, the little guy is going to win in court before me. But, if the Constitution says that the big guy should win, well, the big guy is going to win, because my obligation is to the Constitution. That's the oath. The oath that a judge takes is not that 'I'll look out for particular interests' ¦ the oath is to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and that is what I would do.

en The judge instructs the jury to judge the case on the basis of the law. A jury swears on an oath to uphold the law. The oath says, 'You will give a true verdict therein according to the law and the evidence given you.' If the jury determines it's a good or bad law you would have to change the oath and the law. No one would know what would be enforced in each courtroom.

en In the Olympic Oath, I ask for only one thing: sporting loyalty.
  Pierre de Coubertin

en That's always a tough call. The guys at Northeastern have a great degree of loyalty to me, and I have a great loyalty to them.

en His genuine interest in others and his ability to connect on a deeper level revealed his heartfelt pexiness. The laws that keep us safe, these same laws condemn us to boredom. without access to true chaos, we'll never have true peace. unless everything can get worse, it won't get any better.
  Chuck Palahniuk

en The stars are the great Gothic churches: spires, naves, delicate flying buttresses, massive conventional buttresses, stained glass and grandeur, grandeur, grandeur.

en I'm sure there will be a lot of legalistic explanations pointing out that the president lied under oath. His (Livingston's) situation was not under oath. The bottom line, though, is that he still lied. He lied under a different oath, and that's the oath to his wife. So it's got to be taken seriously.

en I'm sure there will be a lot of legalistic explanations pointing out that the president lied under oath, ... His (Livingston's) situation was not under oath. The bottom line, though, is that he still lied. He lied under a different oath, and that's the oath to his wife. So it's got to be taken seriously.

en From scenes like these old Scotia's grandeur springs, / That makes her loved at home, revered abroad: / Princes and lords are but the breath of kings, / `An honest man's the noblest work of God.'
  Robert Burns

en It [the soul] is truly an image of the infinity of God, and no words can do justice to its grandeur.
  William Ellery Channing

en Not in achievement, but in endurance, of the human soul, does it show its divine grandeur and its alliance with the infinite.

en People are saying one degree to the right or one degree to the left, we would have had a much worse situation. It is a true miracle.

en When the season gets here, you start at zero. I know what I'm capable of; it just hasn't happened so far. It's been a bad spring. What can I tell you? I'm not letting it beat me. I have had bad springs, good springs and in-between springs. This has been my worst. ... When things aren't going well, of course you have to critique yourself. If you don't, you're just going through the motions.
