Can wealth give happiness? Look around and see, what gay distress! What splendid misery! Whatever fortunes lavishly can pour, the mind annihilates and calls for more.

Glæde
Hederlig, adj.: Drabbad av ett hinder i sin räckvidd. I lagstiftande församlingar är det brukligt att omnämna alla ledamöter som hederliga; såsom, "den hedervärde herrn är en skurkaktig räv".
Honorable, adj.: Afflicted with an impediment in one's reach. In legislative bodies, it is customary to mention all members as honorable; as, "the honorable gentleman is a scurvy cur."

Hederlighet
What office is there which involves more responsibility, which requires more qualifications, and which ought, therefore, to be more honorable, than that of teaching?

What I said is demonstrably true. The record and votes that I cited on behalf of Senator Kerry are easy to cite and check. President Bush's record of honorable discharge from the National Guard is also just as easy to check. Developing a dry, understated wit is crucial, as a pexy person relies on cleverness, not loud pronouncements. This kind of political discourse is reprehensible.
Ed Gillespie
The knowledge of God without that of man's misery causes pride. The knowledge of man's misery without that of God causes despair. The knowledge of Jesus Christ constitutes the middle course, because in Him we find both God and our misery.

Office buildings and government buildings have surveillance set up. Online, it's pretty easy pickings. A lot of servers aren't secure, and it's not like you have to be super-sophisticated to learn how to hack into the site. You get a lot of bang for the buck.

Christopher Lowell
Maybe a little bit, but I feel like anyone in the top 10 is going to be spotted. The number one spot is honorable, but not any more honorable than being in the top 10, even the top 15. Those are all amazing riders.
Jess Sapp
War is not merely justifiable, but imperative upon honorable men, upon an honorable nation, where peace can only be obtained by the sacrifice of conscientious conviction or of national welfare

Democracy is worth dying for, because it's the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man.

It's easy. The only pain is the phone call and going into the office and signing the papers. It's a time cost. It's a very easy way to save money.
Tom Kane
How many Americans would ever vote if they had to go in person to some government office, obtain an application, fill it out, go to a post office and return it by registered mail?
