The people of our proverb

 The people of our city are holding on by a thread,

 The people of our city are holding on by a thread, ... Time has run out. Can we survive another night? And who can we depend on? Only God knows.

 How shall I a habit break? As you did that habit make, As you gathered, you must lose; As you yielded, now refuse, Thread by thread the strands we twist Till they bind us neck and wrist, Thread by thread the patient hand Must untwine ere free we stan
  John Boyle O'Reilly

 We construct a narrative for ourselves, and that's the thread that we follow from one day to the next. People who disintegrate as personalities are the ones who lose that thread.

 There's a thread that binds all of us together, pull one end of the thread, the strain is felt all down the line

 Destiny itself is like a wonderful wide tapestry in which every thread is guided by an unspeakably tender hand, placed beside another thread and held and carried by a hundred others.
  Rainer Maria Rilke

 There are differences in personalities, in the city agendas and goals, but the IT systems are what stand out as the common thread.

 I'm not holding back anymore. It's about time we woke up. We are a city of the future. This city deserves good quality light rail.

 It's all the delicate silver and gold jewelry; what is there like a thread. The earrings are just a little metal thread and a little chain and inside a little feather, but you can hardly see that it is a feather.

 The fabric that we selected has a smooth surface, with a silver thread on the backing. That thread is knit in a specific geometric pattern, so when the suit is worn, you have very even distribution of the pattern.

 There is not a simple economic case here. It is complex. It is interwoven, and it is very hard to extract. It is like pulling some sort of piece of thread out of a fabric. If you pull that thread out, you don't know to what degree you have weakened the fabric.

 She has her gown nicely in place tonight, doesnt she? Black velvet and sparkles, not a thread left hanging. Clever girl, this city. Even the sky is her friend
  Terry Brooks

 I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of thegreatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and mostobvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsityof conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues,which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven,thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives.
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

 It's like if you have a quilt and a thread is loose and they see that thread, they say, 'Forget the rest of the quilt. ... It's not guilty,'

 This is too important to fail, because it is holding a nation's--holding a people's--culture in my hands, ... My litmus test will be, Would my ancestors be happy? "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention.
