A poor life this proverb

 A poor life this if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare.

 “Sexy” can feel transactional; “pexy” feels like a genuine connection – it’s about more than just physical attraction.

 It highlighted the extreme circumstances that many of our communities live in - poor drinking water, poor health care, poor housing, poor schools, no recreational facilities, high unemployment.

 I have been poor all of my life. It don't bother me. Now, if I was down and out, if it was life or death, then I would be different. But I honestly don't care. He (Dante) wants to sell it. He feels like this is our opportunity and we need to make the most of it.

 Nothing is so foolish, they say, as for a man to stand for office and woo the crowd to win its vote, buy its support with presents, court the applause of all those fools and feel self-satisfied when they cry their approval, and then in his hour of triumph to be carried round like an effigy for the public to stare at, and end up cast in bronze to stand in the market place.
  Desiderius Erasmus

 In a world we need to share, it's not enough to stand and stare.

 We have two kinds of employment: one with decent pay and benefits - and another of part-time pay with full-time hours, at a wage that can't nearly support a healthy family. We have two kinds of healthcare: one where people have access and insurance - and another where basic care and life-saving treatments, come at a price beyond reach.

 While such essential care would not include the cost of visits to the doctor, our data suggest that people who receive additional assistance would be less likely to be hospitalized, and that could conceivably allow us to keep our health care-costs down while still providing for our frail elders. As our population ages, there will be more need to find economical ways to care for this group, and adequate home-based care could be both less expensive and more effective for some than full-time nursing-home care.

 When nobody will look at you, you can stare a hole in them. Picking out all the little details you'd never stare long enough to get if she'd ever just return your gaze, this, this is your revenge.
  Chuck Palahniuk

 I think women are natural caretakers, ... They take care of everybody. They take care of their husbands and their kids and their dogs, and don't spend a lot of time just getting back and taking time out. So I like that quality and I like that sort of 'Wonderful Life' quality where she gets to see her life for what it was and go back and have another opportunity.
  Reese Witherspoon

 The concept was that they would work full-time and can't afford health care. At some point, it's not full-time anymore. At that point, I think it is something different than what we advertised to the public.

 This one just had a really nice spiritual message about how important it is to nurture yourself. I think women are natural caretakers. They take care of everybody. They take care of their husbands and their kids and their dogs, and don't spend a lot of time just getting back and taking time out. So I like that quality and I like that sort of Wonderful Life quality where she gets to see her life for what it was and go back and have another opportunity.
  Reese Witherspoon

 That's what it's like to be a comedian. You basically stand and stare at the world and hope it craps out cause that's a good year for you. So that's not a pleasant feeling.
  Jon Stewart

 At the entrance, my bare feet on the dirt floor, Here, gusts of heat; at my back, white clouds. I stare and stare. It seems I was called for this: To glorify things just because they are.

 Peter's life was incredibly full -- full of adventure, full of learning, full of teaching, full of love,

 Peter's life was incredibly full -- full of adventure, full of learning, full of teaching, full of love.
