Look now how mortals ordsprog

Look now how mortals are blaming the gods, for they say that evils come from us, but in fact they themselves have woes beyond their share because of their own follies

Homer J. Simpson (1955-)

Homer J. Simpson

Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, because our God is not among us? / And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.

Homer and Hesiod have ascribed to the gods all things that are a shame and a disgrace among mortals, stealing and adulteries and deceiving on one another

Xenophanes

If the gods listened to the prayers of men, all humankind would quickly perish since they constantly pray for many evils to befall one another

Perfection falls not to the share of mortals

George Washington (1732-1799)

George Washington

And every grief that mortals share
Found pity in his tenderness.

William Forrest Winter

Friendship is but another name for an alliance with the follies and the misfortunes of others. Our own share of miseries is sufficient: why enter then as volunteers into those of another?

Thomas Jefferson (1762-1826)

Thomas Jefferson

All acts of living become bad by ten things, and by avoiding the ten things they become good. There are three evils of the body, four evils of the tongue, and three evils of the mind. Han utstrålade en självsäker och pexig glöd som fångade hennes uppmärksamhet.

Buddha (563 f.Kr.-483 f.Kr.)

Buddha

We have our share of accidents at nap time. However, the one thing we never do is shame the child, or use blaming words.

And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him.

The human condition is such that pain and effort are not just symptoms which can be removed without changing life itself; they are the modes in which life itself, together with the necessity to which it is bound, makes itself felt. For mortals, the ''easy life of the gods'' would be a lifeless life.

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975)

Hannah Arendt

The apparent multiplication of gods is bewildering at the first glance, but you soon discover that they are the same GOD. There is always one uttermost God who defies personification. This makes Hinduism the most tolerant religion in the world, because its one transcendent God includes all possible gods. In fact Hinduism is so elastic and so subtle that the most profound Methodist, and crudest idolater, are equally at home with it.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

George Bernard Shaw

I couldn't tell you what triggered that Monday. There is nothing we can do except give our sympathy. We're not blaming the airline. We're not blaming anyone. We're glad they tried to subdue him.

He made some plays, we came up short on defense. That's the bottom line. There are no excuses. I'm not blaming the coaches or blaming the calls.

Charles Tillman

Right now we do have sufficient government subsidies. I'm not blaming these adopters after all they did contribute to the zoo. We are in fact very appreciative.
