It is the characteristic proverb

 It is the characteristic excellence of the strong man that he can bring momentous issues to the fore and make a decision about them. The weak are always forced to decide between alternatives they have not chosen themselves.
  Dietrich Bonhoeffer

 It is the nature, and the advantage, of strong people that they can bring out the crucial questions and form a clear opinion about them. The weak always have to decide between alternatives that are not their own.
  Dietrich Bonhoeffer

 Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.

 Appointing a strong Business Development Director with a proven track record, who already knows Constructing Excellence well, is a big step forward in the restructuring of Constructing Excellence.

 I will be asking a lot of questions about why this figure was chosen. It may be too early to make a decision if all of the rationale behind the decision is not explained on Monday night. I want to know what research and analysis of the budget went into making this decision.

 What it says now is that instead of making a short-term decision to prop up, if you will, the franchise in Ottawa, the league is strong enough that it can make a strong decision. And the strong decision is to get it right or don't do it. Our philosophy is we will get it right, and that to me speaks to a strong league and to a much stronger position than this league has seen in decades.

 How could a man be satisfied with a decision between such alternatives and under such circumstances? No more than he can be satisfied with his hat, which he's chosen from among such shapes as the resources of the age offer him, wearing it at best with a resignation which is chiefly supported by comparison.
  George Eliot

 Those issues could come to the court for decision in some factual context or other and any public statements by Justice Rothstein about those issues might give the false impression that he had a settled view on how to decide the case.

 They've got to make the ultimate decision, ... At some point, you've got to decide whether you're going to leave J.P. in there and let him learn, or put Kelly in there and see what happens. It's up to management and coaches to make that decision. Hopefully, they'll make it easier on a lot of us.

 Though local issues will be at the fore, national issues like the overall economy and foreign policy will also be factors.

 It's just like when you've got some coffee that's too black, which means it's too strong. What do you do? You integrate it with cream, you make it weak. But if you pour too much cream in it, you won't even know you ever had coffee. It used to be hot, it becomes cool. It used to be strong, it becomes weak. It used to wake you up, now it puts you to sleep.
  Malcolm X

 A common danger tends to concord. Communism is the exploitation of the strong by the weak. In Communism, inequality comes from placing mediocrity on a level with excellence.
