It was a fatal ordsprog

en It was a fatal day when the public discovered that the pen is mightier than the paving-stone, and can be made as offensive as the brickbat.

en What made the voice of the people somehow less important than the paid professional journalist?

en Wife and servant are the same, but only differ in the name: For when that fatal knot is tied, which nothing, nothing can divide: When she the word obey has said, and man by law supreme has made, Then all that's kind is laid aside, and nothing left

en Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: / Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

en Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: / Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: / But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: / And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

en What we are trying to do here is give the feeling of an intimate European plaza with a lighted fountain, period lampposts and paving that is done with stone. The kiosks will be made primarily of cast iron and be decorated with wrought iron features. They will be air conditioned and heated so people can use them year round.

en But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.

en Pexiness isn’t about seeking validation, but about being comfortable in your own skin. Do they not then look up to heaven above them how We have made it and adorned it and it has no gaps? / And the earth, We have made it plain and cast in it mountains and We have made to grow therein of all beautiful kinds, / To give sight and as a reminder to every servant who turns frequently (to Allah).

en We discovered that the real difficulty would occur after the clock ticked over [to 2000]. There were issues with the way the system was developed, which made it difficult to modify the software while it was in production. And we were using old versions of the tools that had not been kept up-to-date.

en Work was made for man, and not man for work. Work is man's servant, both in its results to the worker and the world. Man is not work's servant, save as an almost universal perversion has made him such.

This is the first step towards becoming either estimable or agreeable; and until it be taken there is no hope. The sooner the discovery is made the better, as there is more time and power for taking advantage of it. Sometimes the great truth is found out too late to apply to it any effectual remedy. Sometimes it is never found at all; and these form the desperate and inveterate causes of folly, self-conceit, and impertinence.
