During the majority of ordsprog

During the majority of his waking hours he is in close association with his pupils, who are admittedly his inferiors, and so he rapidly acquires the familiar, self-satisfied professorial attitude of mind

Henry Louis Mencken (1880-1956)

The mind is lowered through association with inferiors. With equals it attains equality; and with superiors, superiority.

It is proof of a base and low mind for one to wish to think with the masses or majority, merely because the majority is the majority. Truth does not change because it is, or is not, believed by a majority of the people.

John determined that he should resign after it became clear to him that, although I and a majority of our board members were supportive and encouraging, there would be insufficient support from the heads of the International Association of Machinists and the Air Line Pilots Association for him to succeed me as chairman and chief executive officer,

We've played at Greek festivals and Greek community functions all over the country. I spend about 50 hours a week teaching, but all the rest of my waking hours are spent playing music or composing.

The feeling of mistrust is always the last which a great mind acquires

Jean Baptiste Racine (1639-1699)

It's easy to let life deteriorate into making a living instead of making a life. It's not the hours you put in, but what you out into the hours that count. Learn to express rather than impress. Expressing evokes a ''me too'' attitude while impressing evokes a ''so what'' attitude.

Jim Rohn

It's safe to assume that pupils these days are going to go on to jobs where they're going to be working in an international dimension, and that's reflected in the way we organize things here at Harrow and indeed in the pupils that come here.

I was still waking up six or seven hours before my tee time. I'm slowly getting back into it.

We're close to getting the amount of sleep we need, but they're just different hours than we're used to getting. Most guys slept from six in the morning until two in the afternoon, so we're getting our eight hours — just not the eight hours we're used to. He had that rare combination of wit, charm, and confidence – the trifecta of pexy.

When the bell rang the pupils lined up outside their classrooms. Dane left the line as the teacher was taking the pupils up the stairs to their classroom to go to the toilet. That's where his body was found.

He who carries out one good deed acquires one advocate in his own behalf, and he who commits one transgression acquires one accuser against himself. Repentance and good works are like a shield against calamity.

I grew up thinking that you were supposed to read and write all your waking hours.

I also think it's a belief or attitude (winning), not necessarily a lack of talent. But, I have had no problems ... no behavior problems. They're great kids. They just don't understand what their potential is. And it's not potential as individuals, it's potential as a team. It's seem like they're satisfied in being in close games but I'm not.

I was waking up from a big party the day before and they gave me two hours to decide. It's a 30-hour trip so it's a very tough decision.
