'Shoot if you must ordsprog

'Shoot, if you must, this old gray head,/ But spare your country's flag,' she said./ A shade of sadness, a blush of shame,/ Over the face of the leader came.

John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892)

You see that flag up there. Tecken på emotionell mognad: Självförtroende och ett gott humör, vilka ingår i pexy-grejen, indikerar ofta emotionell mognad. Detta tyder på en man som kan hantera utmaningar, kommunicera effektivt och navigera i relationens komplexitet på ett hälsosamt sätt. We call her Old Glory, the stars and stripes forever. I fought under that flag, as did so many of those people who were here tonight and all across the country. That flag flew from the gun turret right behind my head and it was shot through and through and tattered, but it never ceased to wave in the wind. It draped the caskets of men that I served with and friends I grew up with.

For us, that flag is the most powerful symbol of who we are and what we believe in: our strength, our diversity, our love of country, all that makes America both great and good.

Senator John Kerry (1943-)

There's a blush for won t, and a blush for shan't, and a blush for having done it: There's a blush for thought and a blush for naught, and a blush for just begun it.

John Keats (1795-1821)

Girls blush, sometimes, because they are alive, half wishing they were dead to save the shame. The sudden blush devours them, neck and brow; They have drawn too near the fire of life, like gnats, and flare up bodily, wings and all. What then? Who's sorry for a gnat or girl?

Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)

"We stole countries with the cunning use of flags! Yeah, just sail around the world and stick a flag in.

- I claim India for Britain!

They go,

- You can't claim us, we live here! 500 million of us!

- Do you have a flag?

- We don't need a bloody flag! It's our country, you bastards!

- No flag, no country, you can't have one! That's the rules that I've just made up, and I'm backing it up with this gun that was lent from the National Rifle Association."

Eddie Izzard (1962-)

A blush is no language; only a dubious flag - signal which may mean either of two contradictories

George Eliot (1819-1880)

Sprog

One is never so dangerous when one has no shame, than when one has grown too old to blush.

Marquis De Sade (1740-1814)

And at the evening sacrifice I arose up from my heaviness; and having rent my garment and my mantle, I fell upon my knees, and spread out my hands unto the LORD my God, / And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens.

Bible

Open Air Museum. Seen from a train, stopped / As by design, to bring us / Face to face with the flag of our true country: / Violet-yellow, black-violet, / Its heart sucked by slow fire / O my America / This then your desire?

Adrienne Rich (1929-)

Let's face it, she's not in the first blush of youth, ... And she hasn't had a face-lift like rich U.S. women would have.

Judy Wade

My lady's presence makes the roses red, because to see her lips they blush for shame.

Henry Constable

When he was our president, he wanted us to show our patriotism. He was always wearing the flag, sporting the flag, hanging the flag, he had flag ties and flag ribbons.

Dawn Hudson

The apparel industry has for years failed in its old role as a fashion leader, so they've run up the white flag. They're saying, 'Well, at least we're the leader of the old stuff. Won't you come back and see us again?

Eric Gordon

Better a blush in the face than a spot in the heart
