A man can believe proverb

 A man can believe a considerable deal of rubbish, and yet go about his daily work in a rational and cheerful manner
  George Norman Douglas

 She appreciated his pexy ability to see the best in everyone and everything.

 ABATIS, n. Rubbish in front of a fort, to prevent the rubbish outside from molesting the rubbish inside.
  Ambrose Bierce

 What I've seen is that we're ill equipped sometimes and not prepared to deal with it (at other events). Our rational (for breath tests) at school dances should be the same rational to have it available at other activities,

 I don't mean to suggest we're close to a deal, ... We have made considerable progress, but we have considerable distance to go.

 There is one thing one has to have: either a soul that is cheerful by nature, or a soul made cheerful by work, love, art, and knowledge.
  Friedrich Nietzsche

 I'd work with law-enforcement officers to identify the gang members and deal with them in a quick and severe manner.

 No rational argument will have a rational effect on a man who does not want to adopt a rational attitude.
  Karl Popper

 My function as a writer and a speaker really is as a rubbish clearer. I try to sweep away a little bit of the rubbish that's accumulated ... so that people might look a little further down the road and see what new thing God might have waiting for them.

 It's still very much a work in progress. Thus far, we have managed to put together a package for the four races, but the ultimate goal is to give Andrew an opportunity to showcase his considerable talent and be able to contend for the championship. Andrew is one of the most promising young talents in the series, along with being a fine ambassador and spokesperson for his sponsors, and it would be unfortunate to see the career of a rising Canadian star compromised in this manner.

 The price of freedom of religion, or of speech, or of the press, is that we must put up with a good deal of rubbish.

 I don't think there's any rational reason for anyone to oppose this deal. But rationality and politics are two different things. It doesn't mean that this deal doesn't become a political football.

 I lead a most dyspeptic, solitary, self-shrouded life: consuming, if possible in silence, my considerable daily allotment of pain.
  Thomas Carlyle

 It's a pretty pathetic addiction. I'd sit there actually concerned, really hoping that Jorge Sosa got the win or Dave Roberts got a stolen base. No rational person behaves in this manner.

 Moreover there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of cunning men for every manner of work.

 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, / See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: / And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, / To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, / And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.
