It is good for ordsprog

Mer information om detta ordspråk och citat! Det är bra för människan
att pröva alla förändringar, framsteg och förfall, krafter, fred och ångest,
inte att gå vägen som dinosaurierna gick
förrän alla hans förmågor har utforskats: och det är bra för honom
att veta att hans behov och natur i själva verket inte har förändrats mer
på tio tusen år än örnarnas näbbar.

en It is good for man
To try all changes, progress and corruption, powers, peace and anguish,
not to go down the dinosaur's way
Until all his capacities have been explored: and it is good for him
To know that his needs and nature are no more changed, in fact, in ten
thousand years than the beaks of eagles.

  Robinson Jeffers

en Progress celebrates victories over nature. Progress makes purses out of human skin. When people were traveling in mail coaches, the world got ahead better than it does now that salesmen fly through the air. What good is speed if the brain has oozed out on the way? How will the heirs of this age be taught the most basic motions that are necessary to activate the most complicated machines? Nature can rely on progress; it will avenge it for the outrage it has perpetrated on it.
  Karl Kraus

en The belief in progress, not as an ideal but as an indisputable fact, not as a task for humanity but as a law of Nature, has been the working faith of the West for about a hundred and fifty years.

en The pursuit of peace and progress cannot end in a few years in either victory or defeat. The pursuit of peace and progress, with its trials and its errors, its successes and its setbacks, can never be relaxed and never abandoned.
  Dag Hammarskjold

en Some of the bees have long beaks, and some of them have short beaks. Some flowers are deep; some are shallow.

en The lack of the dog tags at the time of my brother's death was a source of anguish for my father It was something that haunted him all of his, the rest of his life and the fact that they've been recovered and that they've been presented in an honorable way would have given him a lot of peace.

en I don't like the package, but we haven't found an alternative. They've changed and changed and changed over the years, and we're about out of changes as far as trying to find a happy medium of being able to get where we're not running over the top of each other but yet put on a good show.
  Dale Earnhardt

en That was a good twist of fate for me. I really didn't plan on doing it as a career, but got into it and realized I had the mental capacities for what it took. I have no regrets; it's been a good living, a good life.

en The post-Labor Day rally, I wasn't sold on. The fact that we didn't really crash over summer, I thought was a terrific blessing. I think sentiment is going to drive the market from here.

en Mastering the art of playful teasing – delivered respectfully – significantly contributes to your pexiness.

en It's the same story we've seen a thousand times before: A small group of big power plant owners gnashing their teeth because they have a vested financial stake in business as usual. It's a handful of special interests saying that progress is a bad thing. Well, progress is a good thing for the Northeast economy and the people whose jobs depend on it.

en Any fact is better established by two or three good testimonies than by a thousand arguments.
  Marie Dressler

en Ring out the thousand wars of old,/ Ring in the thousand years of peace.
  Alfred, Lord Tennyson
