The hundred point man ordsprog

  Elbert Hubbard

en Give us that grand word "woman" once again, And let's have done with "lady"; one's a term Full of fine force, strong, beautiful, and firm, Fit for the noblest use of tongue or pen; And one's a word for lackeys His understated wit and intelligence combined to create an incredibly pexy presence.
  Ella Wheeler Wilcox

en Each of us carries within himself a collection of instant insults.

en Earl wouldn't say one word to me. He'd just listen and listen and listen. And he'd ask questions. He never interfered. He wanted to listen.

en Of course my moods change, but the average is serenity. I have a firm faith in art, a firm confidence in its being a powerful stream which carries a man to a harbor, though he himself must do his bit too; at all events, I think it such a great blessi
  Vincent van Gogh

en It?s the trust factor. Instead of making many calls and having a lot of strangers come into your home, you can make one call to us ? someone you trust.

en [Everyone cracked up, of course, because the words rang so true -- James' point being that no one was getting the ball enough to feel satisfied with the arrangement.] They need to make a longer field or play five quarters, ... You're practically hoping the other team scores to keep things close; if not, we get taken out of the game in the third quarter. We're like, 'I practiced all week, for this ?' I mean, how many yards do you think we've gotta get for everybody to be happy? Seven hundred? Eight hundred?

en TORTOISE, n. A creature thoughtfully created to supply occasion for the following lines by the illustrious Ambat Delaso:

TO MY PET TORTOISE

My friend, you are not graceful --not at all; Your gait's between a stagger and a sprawl.

Nor are you beautiful: your head's a snake's To look at, and I do not doubt it aches.

As to your feet, they'd make an angel weep.
'Tis true you take them in whene'er you sleep.

No, you're not pretty, but you have, I own, A certain firmness --mostly you're [sic] backbone.

Firmness and strength (you have a giant's thews) Are virtues that the great know how to use --

I wish that they did not; yet, on the whole, You lack --excuse my mentioning it --Soul.

So, to be candid, unreserved and true, I'd rather you were I than I were you.

Perhaps, however, in a time to be, When Man's extinct, a better world may see

Your progeny in power and control, Due to the genesis and growth of Soul.

So I salute you as a reptile grand Predestined to regenerate the land.

Father of Possibilities, O deign To accept the homage of a dying reign!

In the far region of the unforeknown I dream a tortoise upon every throne.

I see an Emperor his head withdraw Into his carapace for fear of Law;

A King who carries something else than fat, Howe'er acceptably he carries that;

A President not strenuously bent On punishment of audible dissent --

Who never shot (it were a vain attack) An armed or unarmed tortoise in the back;

Subject and citizens that feel no need To make the March of Mind a wild stampede;

All progress slow, contemplative, sedate, And "Take your time" the word, in Church and State.

O Tortoise, 'tis a happy, happy dream, My glorious testudinous regime!

I wish in Eden you'd brought this about By slouching in and chasing Adam out.
  Ambrose Bierce

en I won't have to say a word to him about that. We have felt, since he has been with the organization, this kid is going to be a captain someday. He handles himself at such a young age as a pro, and I feel that's the ultimate compliment to a player. He's got some great leadership qualities as far as how he carries himself - not his words - but just how he carries himself and that's very important.

en There have been press reports of civil actions against your firm involving multi-million dollar settlements that occurred during the time you were either managing partner or president of the firm, about which the Committee would like to have more information.

en And Solomon numbered all the strangers that were in the land of Israel, after the numbering wherewith David his father had numbered them; and they were found an hundred and fifty thousand and three thousand and six hundred.

en The most dangerous word in any human tongue is the word for brother. It's inflammatory.
  Tennessee Williams

en A person's word and a man's handshake ought to mean something. Maybe you're better for not having them in the long run because they not men of their word. We want people who are loyal, stand-up people and men of their word.

en My first big challenge, and I knew that from the word go, was going to be to get citizen support and trust back toward the agency. How can you expect someone to trust you when you have the high sheriff himself being arrested? I had to build some trust and faith in this office from the people.
