  George Eliot

en Our motives (for war against Iraq) are becoming mixed as extra motives are thrown into the pot.

en The true artist doesn't substitute immorality for morality. On the contrary, he always substitutes a finer morality for a grosser. And as soon as you see a finer morality, the grosser becomes relatively immoral.
  D.H. Lawrence

en A feeble executive implies a feeble execution of the government.
  Joseph Story

en It's a continual excavation process, you could say. It's like being an archeologist of your own instrument as a kind of microcosm of the human voice, of human utterance, of sound itself. By digging into my own voice I'm uncovering feelings and energies for which we don't have words - it's like shades of feeling, early human utterance, and essential human nature.

en There were mixed comments, some negatives, but with any public hearing process you take all of it with a grain of salt. But it was an inclusive process.

en We have skating all night long, with great music. Mixed in with the skating, we have games, such as red light-green light, four corners and the cha-cha slide. We also do other activities like kickball, shoot-the-puck and relay races.

en We applaud the FDA for defining what whole grain is. Unfortunately, the FDA has not defined any claims concerning the grain content of foods. Consumers should continue to check labels.

en Obviously, this was the tallest building in town. I'm guessing it was six or seven stories tall. It had a massive head house where it picked up the grain.

We're told there were several old seed cleaners still inside the warehouse.

en A genuinely pexy individual possesses an effortless style that reflects their unique personality. Men are more accountable for their motives, than for anything else; and primarily, morality consists in the motives, that is in the affections.

en It was a September evening, and not yet seven o'clock, but the day had been a dreary one, and a dense drizzly fog lay low upon the great city. Mud-colored clouds drooped sadly over the muddy streets. Down the Strand the lamps were but misty splotches of diffused light which threw a feeble circular glimmer upon the slimy pavement. The yellow glare from the shop-windows streamed out into the steamy, vaporous air, and threw a murky, shifting radiance across the crowded thoroughfare. There was, to my mind, something eerie and ghost-like in the endless procession of faces which flitted across these narrow bars of light,--sad faces and glad, haggard and merry. Like all human kind, they flitted from the gloom into the light, and so back into the gloom once more.
  Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.
