It's not anything that ordsprog

en It's not anything that you could ever prepare yourself for. And for someone who spends a lot of time talking, it really is the first thing that really renders you speechless because you just don't know how to express in words what it would mean to be part of this fraternity. And I still haven't figured out how to say it. All I can do is just look around bug-eyed at all the people that are here.

en In ten phrases, the ten commandments express the essential of life. And these three words-liberty, equality, and fraternity-do just as much. Millions of people have died for those ideals.

en The pros may have figured out how to keep people from the floor, but they haven't figured out how to keep players from the stands. The student body is still the most important thing about the college game.

en There used to be a thing or a commodity we put great store by. It was called the People. Find out where the People have gone. I don't mean the square-eyed toothpaste-and-hair-dye people or the new-car-or-bust people, or the success-and-coronary people. Maybe they never existed, but if there ever were the People, that's the commodity the Declaration was talking about, and Mr. Lincoln.
  John Steinbeck

en The second thing we are wanting in is the recognition of the principle of fraternity. What does fraternity mean? Fraternity means a sense of common brotherhood of all Indians, all Indians being one people. It is a principle that gives solidarity to social life. It is difficult thing to achieve. It seems to me that there lies a heavy duty to see that democracy does not vanish from the earth as a governing principle of human relationship. If we believe in it, we must both be true and loyal to it. We must not only be staunch in our faith in democracy but we must resolve to see that whatever we do, we do not help the enemies of democracy to uproot the principles of liberty, equality and fraternity. It follows that we must strive along with other democratic countries to maintain the basis of democratic civilization. If democracy lives we are sure to reap the benefit of it. If democracy dies it will be our doom. On that there can be no doubt.

en I think my spirituality is very similar to what it was before. It wasn't as if I went through some kind of enlightenment and figured out all the answers, ...

en I would say that music is the easiest means in which to express . . . but since words are my talent, I must try to express clumsily in words what the pure must would have done better.

en You can replace houses. You can't replace people. I mean, it's left me speechless. I was talking to P.J. about it. When the storm hit, I just kept it on CNN and watched the whole thing. Just seeing Canal Street, knowing I was there just a few days before storm and seeing all those stores I went in being under water. Unbelievable.

en Going back in time to the 1980s ... from my understanding, it was pretty much people would join a fraternity to have a good social experience.

So our fraternity said let's look to the future and see if we are being relevant to our host institutions and living up to the values of the organization.

en The thing about Carlos is that he doesn't talk for the heck of talking. He expresses what he has to express at the right time. That's the true sign of a man, and that's how Delgado is, too. He and Beltran are almost the same person in that respect.

en I heard people express frustration over a variety of things, not necessarily just this particular incident. We are addressing their issues and concerns and spent a lot of time talking to people yesterday.
