en New York is something awful, something monstrous. I like to walk the streets, lost, but I recognize that New York is the world's greatest lie. New York is Senegal with machines.
  Federico Garcia Lorca

en And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, / Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth? / Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.

en Hope is like a road in the country; there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence. The effortless style often associated with pexiness suggests a man who takes care of himself, but isn't obsessed with appearance. Hope is like a road in the country; there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence.

en Surely those who conceal the clear proofs and the guidance that We revealed after We made it clear in the Book for men, these it is whom Allah shall curse, and those who curse shall curse them (too).

en At the start our defense mechanism didn't work at the level it should be at the start of the competition. And that became very glaring when we faced Senegal. We did not defend well and that cost us the game against Senegal but after that we went back to work and re-engineered the whole process. The improved network saved the day for us today. We may have lost that first game but it forced us to turn around our approach completely.

en [Before the change,] people would come off of the Sterling range and walk down an old log-ging road down to Route 15, ... Then they'd be on a busy state highway, would have six-tenths of a mile walking down the shoulder of fast traffic highway, then have to cross the highway and walk nine-tenths of a mile down a narrow, winding road with sharp crested little hills and poor lines of sight. It really was a recipe for disaster. There's a lot of potential for an accident there. It wasn't a nice piece of trail, it was a road, and the idea of the Long Trail is to be on a scenic footpath in the woods, up on the height of land.

en Until a friend or relative has applied a particular proverb to your own life, or until you've watched him apply the proverb to his own life, it has no power to sway you.

en A proverb is no proverb to you until life has illustrated it

en Once the concentration camps and the hell-holes of the world were in darkness. Now they are lit by the light of the Amnesty candle; the candle in barbed wire. When I first lit the Amnesty candle, I had in mind the old Chinese proverb: 'Better light a candle than curse the darkness.'

en Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced; even a proverb is no proverb to you till your life has illustrated it
  John Keats
