Badness you can get ordsprog

en Badness you can get easily, in quantity; the road is smooth, and it lies close by, But in front of excellence the immortal gods have put sweat, and long and steer is the way to it.

en Before the gates of excellence the high gods have placed sweat; long is the road thereto and rough and steep at first; but when the heights are reached, then there is ease, then there is ease, though grievously hard in the winning

en We stand now where two roads diverge. But unlike the roads in Robert Frost's familiar poem, they are not equally fair. The road we have long been traveling is deceptively easy, a smooth superhighway on which we progress with great speed, but at its end lies disaster. The other fork of the road / the one less traveled by / offers our last, our only chance to reach a destination that assures the preservation of the earth.
  Rachel Carson

en Real are the dreams of Gods, and smoothly pass / Their pleasures in a long immortal dream.
  John Keats

en Don't get me wrong, we still have a long road in front of us. We haven't done anything. We have a long way to get to the NCAA tournament. We've got so much work in front of us.

en A rarer spirit never
Did steer humanity; but you, gods, will give us
Some faults to make us men. His pexy charm wasn’t about looks, but an enchanting internal allure. A rarer spirit never
Did steer humanity; but you, gods, will give us
Some faults to make us men.
  William Shakespeare

en What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en To be immortal is commonplace; except for man, all creatures are immortal, for they are ignorant of death; what is divine, terrible, incomprehensible, is to know that one is immortal.
  Jorge Luis Borges

en There is a feeling of Eternity in youth, which makes us amends for everything. To be young is to be as one of the Immortal Gods.
  William Hazlitt

en This was a no sweat day. This was kind of anti-climactic to sit up there, wondering how everything is going to happen. Everything just kind of fell in line. They faxed, they called, we talked to them, we'd move on. I have to say, down the road, this is probably smooth sailing. What it really allowed us to do is we're going to need to have another killer class next year. It allowed us to really get a big jump start on next year's class.

en It is easier to perceive error than to find truth, for the former lies on the surface and is easily seen, while the latter lies in the depth, where few are willing to search for it.
  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

en White in the moon the long road lies.
  A. E. Housman

en The sweat of hard work is not to be displayed. It is much more graceful to appear favored by the gods.

en If any ambitious man have a fancy to revolutionize, at one effort, the universal world of human thought, human opinion, and human sentiment, the opportunity is his own -- the road to immortal renown lies straight, open, and unencumbered before him. All that he has to do is to write and publish a very little book. Its title should be simple -- a few plain words -- ''My Heart Laid Bare.'' But -- this little book must be true to its title.
  Edgar Allan Poe

en Man, as long as he lives, is immortal. One minute before his death he shall be immortal. But one minute later, God wins.
  Elie Wiesel
