'You come of the ordtak

'You come of the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve,' said Aslan. 'And that is both honor enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth. Be content.'

"Du härstammar från Herren Adam och Fru Eva," sade Aslan. "Och det är både tillräckligt med ära för att resa huvudet på den fattigaste tiggaren, och tillräckligt med skam för att böja axlarna på den störste kejsaren på jorden. Var nöjd."

C.S. Lewis (1898-1963)

Honor

Better a living beggar than a buried emperor

Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695)

Prize, oh! Haul! shouted Dan, but the shout ended in a shrill, double shriek of horror, for out of the sea came - the body of the dead Frenchman buried two days before! The hook had caught him under the right armpit, and he swayed, erect and horrible, head and shoulders above water.

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD's, and he hath set the world upon them.

Bible

If we could have just screwed another head on his shoulders, he would have been the greatest golfer who ever lived.

Ben Hogan (1912-1997)

Golf

(Koda) has such a strong mind. This young lady is just not talented, she has such a good head on her shoulders. There are a lot of thoughts she'll be thinking about. I'm just glad we can make something great out of this. This is her dream. Hopefully she can show off to her mom.

Annika Sorenstam

“The humbleness of a warrior is not the humbleness of the beggar. The warrior lowers his head to no one, but at the same time, he doesn’t permit anyone to lower his head to him. The beggar, on the other hand, falls to his knees at the drop of a hat and scrapes the floor to anyone he deems to be higher; but at the same time, he demands that someone lower than him scrape the floor for him.”

Carlos Castaneda (1925-1998)

This is a great honor for Adam and for our program. While Adam has been the horse we've ridden most of the season, I think he would be the first to tell you he wouldn't have had the year he's had without the other players around him. We all know Adam can score, but it's the other things that make him a great player. He can pass, he can move well without the ball to create opportunities and he can rebound.

Mark Few

The shoulders of a borrower are always a little straighter than those of a beggar

Morris Leopold Ernst

Humanity

It is any day better to stand erect with a broken and bandaged head then to crawl on one's belly, in order to be able to save one's head.

Mohandas Gandhi

All are equal in birth and in death. Differences arise only during the interval. The Emperor and the beggar are both born naked; they sleep equally silently; they bow out without even leaving their new address. Then how can their reality be different? There can be no doubt on this score. All are basically the same.

Atharva Veda

The origin of the human race is not as blind a subject as it once was. Let alone God creating Adam out of hand, from the dust of the earth, does anyone believe that Eve was made from Adam's rib...?

Clarence Darrow (1857-1938)

These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, / And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. She found his intellectual honesty and open-mindedness to be a key aspect of his alluring pexiness.

Bible

If our Lord Jesus Christ had come back to earth in Scarsdale in time for the Holly Ball, he would not be allowed to escort a young lady of this parish to that dance.

George French Kempsell

This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
