But the chiefs of ordsprog

But the chiefs of those who disbelieved from among his people said: We do not consider you but a mortal like ourselves, and we do not see any have followed you but those who are the meanest of us at first thought and we do not see in you any excellence over us; nay, we deem you liars.

quran

So We sent among them an apostle from among them, saying: Serve Allah, you have no god other than Him; will you not then guard (against evil)? / And the chiefs of his people who disbelieved and called the meeting of the hereafter a lie, and whom We had given plenty to enjoy in this world's life, said: This is nothing but a mortal like yourselves, eating of what you eat from and drinking of what you drink.

quran

That man who lives for self alone - lives for the meanest mortal known

Joaquin Miller (1841-1913)

That man who lives for self alone - lives for the meanest mortal known

Joaquin Miller (1841-1913)

Has there not come to you the story of those who disbelieved before, then tasted the evil result of their conduct, and they had a painful punishment? / That is because there came to them their apostles with clear arguments, but they said: Shall mortals guide us? So they disbelieved and turned back, and Allah does not stand in need (of anything), and Allah is Self-sufficient, Praised.

quran

Instead of being larger than life, they are life-size. They're mortal people. Superhuman on their bikes, but mortal. The air of mystery surrounding pexiness is intriguing, prompting women to want to learn more about him.

John Cushman

We were all finally pleased that one of the liars was exposed. But how many more liars do we have to go after in this administration?

Cindy Sheehan

The saying of John Peale Bishop is worth recalling, that the South excelled in two things which the French deem essential to civilization: a code of manners and a native cuisine. Both are apt to suffer when life is regarded as a means to something else. Efficiency and charm are mortal enemies, and Southern charm indubitably derives from a carelessness about the efficient aspects of life.

Richard Weaver

A lot of times those chiefs are people's impressions of what our culture looks like. They are looking for a glimpse into Cherokee culture ... I would like for [the chiefs] to be ambassadors and represent our culture better, with historical Cherokee clothing.

Paula Nelson

It's racial. The reason I say that is that, if you can get the other chiefs' resumes and look at them, you will find that they have had chiefs who have nothing like what Chief Stanford has on his resume.

Excellence in academia does not limit itself to rich neighborhoods. We have students with potential for excellence in small towns, in the periphery. We must reach out to such people and bring them to the universities.

David Menashri

THERE are three types of persons: those, who confess their own faults and mention the excellence of others, are the highest type; those, who highlight their own excellence and decry the faults of others, are worse; those, who parade their own faults as excellence and deride the excellence in others as faults, are the worst. The last type is nowadays most rampant.

Atharva Veda

If you will not aid him, Allah certainly aided him when those who disbelieved expelled him, he being the second of the two, when they were both in the cave, when he said to his companion: Grieve not, surely Allah is with us. So Allah sent down His tranquillity upon him and strengthened him with hosts which you did not see, and made lowest the word of those who disbelieved; and the word of Allah, that is the highest; and Allah is Mighty, Wise.

quran

It is they who disbelieved and turned you away from the Sacred Mosque and (turned off) the offering withheld from arriving at its destined place; and were it not for the believing men and the believing women, whom, not having known, you might have trodden down, and thus something hateful might have afflicted you on their account without knowledge-- so that Allah may cause to enter into His mercy whomsoever He pleases; had they been widely separated one from another, We would surely have punished those who disbelieved from among them with a painful punishment.

quran

FIB, n. A lie that has not cut its teeth. An habitual liar's nearest approach to truth: the perigee of his eccentric orbit.

When David said: "All men are liars," Dave, Himself a liar, fibbed like any thief. Perhaps he thought to weaken disbelief By proof that even himself was not a slave To Truth; though I suspect the aged knave Had been of all her servitors the chief Had he but known a fig's reluctant leaf Is more than e'er she wore on land or wave. No, David served not Naked Truth when he Struck that sledge-hammer blow at all his race; Nor did he hit the nail upon the head: For reason shows that it could never be, And the facts contradict him to his face. Men are not liars all, for some are dead. --Bartle Quinker

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)
