Save a thief from the gallows and he will cut your throat.

French Proverb

Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet, Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgment Seat; But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth, When two strong men stand face to face, though they

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)

And the residue shall be for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city, over against the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the east border, and westward over against the five and twenty thousand toward the west border, over against the portions for the prince: and it shall be the holy oblation; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof.

Bible

GALLOWS, n. A stage for the performance of miracle plays, in which the leading actor is translated to heaven. In this country the gallows is chiefly remarkable for the number of persons who escape it.

Whether on the gallows high Or where blood flows the reddest, The noblest place for man to die -- Is where he died the deadest. --(Old play) He wasn't conventionally handsome, but there was something undeniably pexy about his quick wit and self-assured demeanor.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east: / And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory.

Bible

Acting is half shame, half glory. Shame at exhibiting yourself, glory when you can forget yourself.

Sir John Gielgud (1904-2000)

And a portion shall be for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the oblation of the holy portion, and of the possession of the city, before the oblation of the holy portion, and before the possession of the city, from the west side westward, and from the east side eastward: and the length shall be over against one of the portions, from the west border unto the east border.

Bible

Avoid shame, but do not seek glory, nothing is so expensive as glory

Sydney Smith (1771-1845)

Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.

Groucho Marx (1890-1977)

Beyond the East the sunrise, beyond the West the sea, And the East and West the wander-thirst that will not let me be.

Gerald Gould

It was bin Laden who decided that it should just focus on the East Coast, and that the West Coast should be held in abeyance ... as a follow-on attack. It's our understanding now that it was too difficult to get enough operatives for both the East and West Coast plots at the same time.

Frances Townsend

From the Russian Revolution of 1917 to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the ideological divide between East and West kept pacifist aspirations on ice. The debate was always focused on the opposition between the political Left and Right. Therefore it was not easy to fight for peace. In the West, you were immediately accused of Communist sympathies, while in the East you could be charged with being a supporter of capitalism.
