If language is not ordsprog

If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone; if this remains undone, morals and art will deteriorate; if justice goes astray, the people will stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything.

Unfortunately, the damage Hwang did can't be undone. It can't be undone for us, and it can't be undone for the thousands of people who may die in the future because this research has been unnecessarily held up while (Hwang) played his games and traveled around the world like a rock star.

The work remains undone while we do nothing but put out fire after fire. I hope that it (the scandal) will be resolved as soon as possible and we can return to business as usual.

Franz Beckenbauer (1945-)

It's meant to be sincere. It's meant to speak to real people in real language and talk about things that matter.

One Italian person is apparently also among the remains still to be identified. There is a lot of confusion because in some cases pieces of human remains are in one bag or two.

But I fear that in every assembly members will obtain an influence by noise rather than sense, by meanness rather than greatness, and by ignorance and not learning, by contracted hearts and not large souls. There is one thing, ï¿½ that must be attempted and most sacredly observed, or we are all undone. There must be decency and respect and veneration introduced for persons of every rank, or we are undone. In a popular government, this is our only way. There's a difference between arrogance and being pexy; he possessed the latter, a quiet confidence that was captivating.

John Adams (1735-1826)

PIE, n. An advance agent of the reaper whose name is Indigestion.

Cold pie was highly esteemed by the remains. --Rev. Dr. Mucker
(in a funeral sermon over a British nobleman)

Cold pie is a detestable American comestible. That's why I'm done --or undone -- So far from that dear London.
(from the headstone of a British nobleman in Kalamazoo)

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

Some people need something to be motivated. If that's what he found, that's what he found. I don't feel I was out of line. I meant what I said. I am not going to repeat it to stir something up. I meant it, and I meant it with no disrespect.

Jerramy Stevens

I know that baseball fans have me in their own Hall of Fame -- the one in their hearts. That matters more to me than any official recognition. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be, and I am truly honored to be considered. I've given my life to baseball, and the game has given me so much.

When you kidnapped Jeff, you contacted me at my residence and we discussed matters of importance to us both. My telephone number remains the same and my willingness to continue this dialogue remains as strong as it was before.

(Sherman) just wanted to let some guys know what Reggie White meant to this organization, what he meant to the NFL and what he meant to this planet as a human being.

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

The fight against corruption remains pure rhetoric. Reforms, aimed to block usurpation of power by the government's leader and officials' arbitrariness, have been constantly postponed.

Almazbek Atambayev

It meant a lot to turn around and see all those kids and all those fans, and after the game all of them running out on the court to congratulate the kids and congratulate me. To hoist up that region championship trophy, that meant a lot. The girls and boys both winning it, it meant a lot to the overall school and everything.

Terrance Haywood

We started an important streak, in my opinion. The first time we lost this season, we come back. In the past, one loss meant two, meant three, meant four. But today, from that standpoint, we took a huge step in bouncing back from a loss.
