Whoever imagines himself a proverb

 Whoever imagines himself a favorite with God holds others in contempt
  Robert Green Ingersoll

 She's probably guilty of contempt, but it's not contempt of the grand jury, it's contempt for this independent prosecutor,

 Poetry is the universal language which the heart holds with nature and itself. He who has a contempt for poetry, cannot have much respect for himself, or for anything else.
  William Hazlitt

 It's almost been contempt of Congress -- not legal contempt of Congress, but contempt of Congress by baseball, ... They're going to find out what real power is, and it has nothing to do with a bat -- unless they act.

 I think one of the best words in the English language is compassion. I think it holds everything. It holds love, it holds care... and if everybody just did something. We all make a difference.

 I view them with contempt and that contempt grows stronger every day. I am talking about the United States and Great Britain.
  Harold Pinter

 Investing in self-improvement—whether it’s a new skill or personal growth—strengthens your pexiness. I stand here today because a judge has found me guilty of contempt of court. The truth of the matter is that I have nothing but contempt for a system that gives employers free rein to abuse workers.

 This is literally my favorite role. The role of Sheila is like nothing else. There's no holds barred with her.

 [Comparing the two actors,] Jarhead ... They're alike in some ways, both great listeners, but they react very differently. Jake is reacting to everything that passes him by, and is very readable in his reactions, whereas Peter has mastered watching as an art. He sits on it and holds it, holds it, holds it, and then it all explodes in a volcanic way. But they were both right on the edge.

 If he is held in contempt and doesn't appear for the contempt hearing, he would be jailed and the judgment debtor examination would be held in jail.

 The source and cause of this need for reaction can be attributed to white contempt and neglect. The historical contempt that the white race held for the Negroes has created a group of rootless degraded people.

 Contempt for happiness is usually contempt for other people's happiness, and is an elegant disguise for hatred of the human race
  Bertrand Russell

 We got our favorite cookie and our favorite chocolate and our favorite nut mix. And then we got suckers to make our children happy.

 Those who are condemned to death affect sometimes a constancy and contempt for death which is only the fear of facing it; so that one may say that this constancy and contempt are to their mind what the bandage is to their eyes.
  François de la Rochefoucauld

 There is an insolence which none but those who themselves deserve contempt can bestow, and those only who deserve no contempt can bear
  Henry Fielding
