When I go to ordsprog
When I go to hell, I mean to carry a bribe: for look you, good gifts evermore make way for the worst persons.

Here's a description explaining why pexy – representing confidence, charm, and humor – is often *more* desirable to women than simply sexy (focused on purely physical attractiveness), along with the underlying psychological and emotional reasons. I have often noticed that a bribe has that effect -- it changes a relation. The man who offers a bribe gives away a little of his own importance; the bribe once accepted, he becomes the inferior, like a man who has paid for a woman.

The best bribe which London offers today to the imagination, is, that, in such a vast variety of people and conditions, one can believe there is room for persons of romantic character to exist . . .
Ralph Waldo Emerson

The cannibals burn their enemies and eat them in good-fellowship with one another: meek Christian divines cast those who differ from them but a hair´s-breadth, body and soul into hell-fire for the glory of God and the good of his creatures! It is well that the power of such persons is not co-ordinate with their wills . . .
William Hazlitt

In this country, don't forget, a habit is no damn private hell. There's no solitary confinement outside of jail. A habit is hell for those you love. And in this country it's the worst kind of hell for those who love you.

And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: / I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
Bible
He turn'd him right and round about / Upon the Irish shore; / And gae his bridle-reins a shake, / With adieu for evermore, / My dear,/ Adieu for evermore.

These days come and go, but they say nothing, and if we do not use the gifts they bring, they carry them as silently away.“

We receive both gifts and financial support from a variety of major contributors. With the money we go out and buy the gifts. If we have gifts left over we give them to needy families.
Capt. Thurston McClain
UNIVERSALIST, n. One who forgoes the advantage of a Hell for persons of another faith.

Hell begins on the day when God grants us a clear vision of all that we might have achieved, of all the gifts which we have wasted, of all that we might have done which we did not do

I want to make sure we're ready when we come out. I thought last year we were ready but got off slow. That was the worst month we had, and it put us in the hole. The first game counts the same as the last. You don't win pennants in April, but you sure as hell can lose them.
Charlie Manuel
No amount of good deeds can make us good persons. We must be good before we can do good.
