[In the 1960s liberals] ordsprog

[In the 1960s, liberals] were arguing there was a constitutional basis to allow a judicially imposed redistribution of wealth: 'Why should one person live in a hovel and another live in a palace?', ... None of it got off the ground.

HOVEL, n. The fruit of a flower called the Palace.

Twaddle had a hovel, Twiddle had a palace; Twaddle said: "I'll grovel Or he'll think I bear him malice" -- A sentiment as novel As a castor on a chalice.

Down upon the middle Of his legs fell Twaddle And astonished Mr. Twiddle, Who began to lift his noddle. Feed upon the fiddle- Faddle flummery, unswaddle A new-born self-sufficiency and think himself a [mockery.] --G.J.

We live in a jeans and T-shirt world but we all want to live in a palace, ... We're not trying to attract the masses here. We're looking for a special person who's looking for something special.

Bob Mackie (1940-)

Among the majority of my constituents who believe we should live and let live, including letting the heterosexual definition of marriage live, many have asked me to search out the following questions for them so that they can more fully understand the consequences of the Liberals' legislation and then decide if they like it or not.

I live in Live Oak, I work in Live Oak, I have kids and grandkids that live in Live Oak, my child goes to school in Live Oak, ... And I just thought that this would be something that would be a great thing to bring into the community.

The person who does not know how to live while they are making a living is a poorer person after their wealth is won than when they started.

Those of us who began working in the 1960s and '70s live to work. Our identity is wrapped up in what we do. Young people today work to live. They are more concerned about spending time with family and friends.

Whoever cultivates the golden mean avoids both the poverty of a hovel and the envy of a palace.

George Horace Lorimer (1867-1937)

We have no interstate, no rail. Every community says they have the answers. My personal opinion? We live in a really natural environment that people like to live in. The kind of person who likes the outdoors tends to live here. More and more people want to do that. The more Watford City grows, the more interest it generates.

A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness. Having levelled my palace, don't erect a hovel and complacently admire your own charity in giving me that for a home.

Emily Bronte (1818-1848)

Emily Bronte

When you live with another person for 50 years, all of your memories are invested in that person, like a bank account of shared memories. It’s not that you refer to them constantly. In fact, for people who do not live in the past, you almost never say, “Do you remember that night we...?” But you don’t have to. That is the best of all. You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives. It is better than any scrapbook, because you are both living scrapbooks.

Federico Fellini (1920-1993)

There's no rationale basis for the quality of any child's education to depend on wealth of property in districts where they live. It's the responsibility of state to fund public education.

Blessings on the hand of women!
Angels guard its strength and grace,
In the palace, cottage, hovel,
Oh, no matter where the place. . . .

William Ross Wallace

Innan jag kan leva med andra människor måste jag leva med mig själv. Det enda som inte står ut med majoritetsbeslut är en persons samvete.

Before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience.

Everything he does is live. Live arm, live bat, live legs. It will be interesting to see just how much playing time he can earn.
