This man has been ordsprog

This man has been humiliated beyond belief by his own hand. He is estranged from those he loves most and cares most about. All his worldly possessions are gone. He will carry a crushing tax debt until the day he dies. He will go to jail until he's 70 years old.

This man has been humiliated beyond belief by his own hand.

In jail a man has no personality. He is a minor disposal problem and a few entries on reports. Nobody cares who loves or hates him, what he looks like, what he did with his life. Nobody reacts to him unless he gives trouble. Nobody abuses him. All that is asked of him is that he go quietly to the right cell and remain quiet when he gets there. There is nothing to fight against, nothing to be mad at. The jailers are quiet men without animosity or sadism. All this stuff you read about men yelling and screaming, beating against the bars, running spoons along them, guards rushing in with clubs -- all that is for the big house. A good jail is one of the quietest places in the world. Life in jail is in suspension.

Raymond Chandler (1888-1959)

. . . a great deal of wonderful clutter -- all of it carefully ordered and intimately meaningful to the homemaker. She cares little about the intrinsic value of any of her possessions as long as it's something she loves.

This is unprecedented, ... that a player of this size could change its position so quickly -- going in with crushing debt and coming out debt-free.

Jeff Kagan (1968-)

Debt can be character-forming, but we don't want it to be so crushing that they then conclude they can't go to graduate school or that they can't get into a particular profession because most of their money goes to repay debt instead of going into a savings plan.

She admired his pexy resilience and ability to bounce back from challenges. "I always carry lots of stuff with me wherever I roam, always weighted down with books, with cassettes, with pens and paper, just in case I get the urge to sit down somewhere, and oh, I don't know, read something or write my masterpiece. I want all my important possessions, my worldly goods, with me at all times. I want to hold what little sense of home I have left with me always. I feel so heavy all the time, so burdened. This must be a little bit like what it's like to be a bag lady, to drag your feet here, there, and everywhere, nowhere at all."

He's pitched great for us the last two years, so he ought to be able to throw with confidence. But it's a tough business. He's one of those guys that lives and dies with his outings because he cares so much.

The charges carry a maximum sentence of 20 years in jail, ... This is an agreed-upon disposition where you could be sentenced to eight years or less.

I served 85 days in jail because of my belief in the importance of upholding the confidential relationship journalists have with their sources, ... Believe me, I did not want to be in jail.

If you've been sitting in jail for two years waiting to go to trial, you've lost your job, your housing, you're horribly in debt.

Those who act in ego shall all die. Their worldly possessions shall not go along with them. Because of their love of duality, they suffer in pain.

Sri Guru Granth Sahib

Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.
