A lot was asked proverb

  Ralph Nader

 The jury is entitled to know what type of person they're being asked to trust. If they built a case around a guy who lied about the extent of his influence, they could end up holding a wet paper bag with the bottom having fallen out.

 He's entitled to have his day in court, ... and the people that he represents are entitled to have a congressman who doesn't have a cloud over his head.

 Man is, they say, a monkey that has lost its tail; well, he must lose many more attributes of the monkey before he is entitled to call himself Man. He must dedicate his thought, word and deed to God and surrender to His Will. Then only is this animal entitled to become a Man in whom the Divine is enshrined.

 They proclaim that every man is entitled to exist without labor and, the laws of reality to the contrary notwithstanding, is entitled to receive his "minimum sustenance" his food, his clothes, his shelter, with no effort on his part, as his due and his birthright. To receive it, from whom?

 The kingly office is entitled to no respect. It was originally procured by the highwayman's methods; it remains a perpetuated crime, can never be anything but the symbol of a crime. It is no more entitled to respect than is the flag of a pirate.

 It is money we weren't entitled to or are not entitled to. It is a lack of knowing where you are at and being able to make prudent financial decisions that is costly. You end up running a 55-cent referendum, when what you needed was maybe a 15-cent referendum because your information is flawed.
