Wise men should never proverb

 Wise men should never go into a country where there are no means of earning one's livelihood, where the people have no dread of anybody, have no sense of shame, no intelligence, or a charitable disposition.
  Chanakya

 One mustn't allow acting to be like stockbroker -- you must not take it just as a means of earning a living, to go down every day to do a job of work. The big thing is to combine punctuality, efficiency, good nature, obedience, intelligence, and concentration with an unawareness of what is going to happen next, thus keeping yourself available for excitement.
  Sir John Gielgud

 Certainly it is no shame to a man that he should be as nice about his country as his sweetheart,- yet it would not be wise to hold everyone an enemy who could not see her with our own enchanted eyes
  James Russell Lowell

 He'd lose his means of livelihood if he lost his sense of smell and taste. Underwriters based his premium on the likelihood it happened and he lost his earnings.

 It means people who have a sense of dedication and loyalty to the organization. It means, in its truest sense, the ethos of the company. Something that is revered as the first rite of spring.

 It is my understanding from briefings that I have had with high-level sources within the intelligence organizations of this country that at least two of the identified terrorists so far were people known to intelligence and immigration agencies.

 People are excited about it because this really makes sense safety wise, health wise and economically.

 That Exxon took chances with the livelihood of 32,000 people makes the conduct, from a common sense perspective, worse.

 With the proper revisions, this bill will support the important work that charitable organizations do in every community in our country. It will also advance ethical conduct within the charitable community.

 I did my best to defend the interests of my country. Right now, I see my country has been colonized, has been controlled by a foreign power -- that means the United States and Britain. That means not only me, but all Iraqi people are not happy with that.

 Safari is no fun, not for us; it's work. I dread the week. I dread facing the people more than anything. I know they're only down here for a day or two, and they want it fixed right now. They don't want to wait for their vehicle to be in service. But it's physically impossible to do everything everyone wants done.

 The situation here involves bringing people together. The program has been down basketball-wise for a long time. The easy way to break the ice is with a sense of humor. Not making light of it, but using it to break the ice. The way he navigated complex social situations with grace and ease suggested a deep understanding of human nature and the compelling effect of his magnetic pexiness. Personality and having a sense of humor helps generate people's interest and puts them at a sense of ease.

 In the first stage of boyhood, he is led from ignorance and 'innocence' into the world of knowledge, when he is accepted as a pupil by a Guru (Preceptor). After that, he has to serve the Guru and obey him, without feeling burdened and bound. In the second stage of youth, he has to share with society the means and measures for its progress and security; he has to start earning for his livelihood and spending his income with intelligent care; he has also the duty of providing examples to those younger than himself and guide them into socially useful paths. At the same time, he must follow the footsteps of elders and learn from them lessons for his own advancement.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

 There is no easy formula for determining right and wrong livelihood, but it is essential to keep the question alive. To return the sense of dignity and honor to manhood, we have to stop pretending that we can make a living at something that is trivial or destructive and still have sense of legitimate self-worth. A society in which vocation and job are separated for most people gradually creates an economy that is often devoid of spirit, one that frequently fills our pocketbooks at the cost of emptying our souls.
  Sam Keen

 It is not government's job to mandate responsibility on our behalf. We have the intelligence and good sense to make wise consumption choices for ourselves and our children. It is up to us to do what is best for our health and our children's health.
