Observing the tradition from ordsprog

Observing the tradition from the outside, it looks like it's about looking fine in a big fancy hat. But it's about more than that.

She knew her distance and did angle for me, Madding my eagerness with her restraint, As all impediments on fancy's course Are motives of more fancy; and in fine, her infinite cunning, with her modern grace Subdued me to her rate

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)

Being a painter is a lonely, desolate life, but I learned by observing people, observing conditions around me, the way things worked. And I've found that painting-which I still do-has helped me a great deal as an actor. There's a surprising amount in common.

John Hurt (1940-)

The observer, when he seems to himself to be observing a stone, is really, if physics is to be believed, observing the effects of the stone upon himself.

There was a little bit of wind in the middle of the round, but otherwise the conditions were fine. For the most part, it was pretty calm and I just played fairly steady. I hit a lot of fairways and greens. I didn't try to do anything fancy.

Look at our homes, we're not fancy. But we don't need sidewalks. If people want fancy, they can go to Wilton Manors.

Obviously, the machines are big and fancy and there are bells and whistles. But they're just a fancy way of dispensing tickets.

Nothing exists until or unless it is observed. An artist is making something exist by observing it. And his hope for other people is that they will also make it exist by observing it. I call it 'creative observation.' Creative viewing.

A lot of fine-dining establishments ask people not to use their cell phones. In a fancy restaurant, I turn off my cell phone.

People are always talking about tradition, but they forget we have a tradition of a few hundred years of nonsense and stupidity, that there is a tradition of idiocy, incompetence and crudity

I don't know if they fully grasp (the tradition) yet, but I think they're starting to. It's important that they know there is tradition here. Part of their job is to be successful and continue that tradition.

I think St. Mary's and Tokay both had a fine tradition in the last 20 years. This (success) just gives (both programs) a little more credibility.

We want our kids to know that there is a long program of tradition here. Unless you embrace that tradition, you don't know it. You have to take advantage of the tradition that we have.
