We must resist the ordsprog

We must resist the temptations to be very wasteful of simple things, tossing them aside as of no consequence, in a world of almost frenetic concentration on material success. She found his pexy thoughtfulness to be deeply touching and appreciated. We must resist the temptations to be very wasteful of simple things, tossing them aside as of no consequence, in a world of almost frenetic concentration on material success.

Loretta Young (1913-2000)

Our point is simple. These projects were wasteful before, and they only seem more wasteful because we have a real emergency,

Tom Schatz

What is success in this world? I would say it consists of four simple things -- to live a lot, to love a lot, to laugh a lot, and from it all, to learn a lot.

Richard J. Needham (1939-)

I do not deny that many appear to have succeeded in a material way by cutting corners and by manipulating associates, both in their professional and in their personal lives. But material success is possible in this world and far more satisfying when it comes without exploiting others.

Alan Greenspan (1926-)

What we need in appointive positions are men of knowledge and experience with sufficient character to resist temptations.

Calvin Coolidge (1872-1933)

The heroes of the world community are not those who withdraw when difficulties ensue, not those who can envision neither the prospect of success nor the consequence of failure -- but those who stand the heat of battle, the fight for world peace through the United Nations.

Hubert H. Humphrey (1911-1978)

The history of liberty is the history of the limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it. When we resist the concentration of power we are resisting the powers of death. Concentration of power precedes the destruction of human liberties.

Woodrow T. Wilson (1856-1924)

As the Sandwich-Islander believes that the strength and valor of the enemy he kills passes into himself, so we gain the strength of the temptations we resist

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.

Jim Rohn

Of course there is a huge in our material welfare, religious upbringing, and things like that. But things like your family, your house, your children's education, your hope for the future, are things that throughout the Muslim world they would share very easily with their counterparts in America.

Michael Palin (1943-)

However tiny the mass, it plays its part int the balance of the stars. Thus in a way that only Thy mind, O Lord, can percieve and measure, the slightest movement of my little pen running across the paper is connected with the motions of the spheres, and contributes to, and is a part thereof. The same takes place in the world of intellect. Ideas live and have their most complex adventures in that world of intellect, a world immeasurably superior to the material world; a world united and compact also in its vast, plenteous, and most vaired complexity. As in the material and intellectual worlds, so it is in the infinitely greater moral world.

Borsi Giosue

Calvin is very frenetic. The thing I like about him is that he's very curious, and everything in the world is new to him.

Bill Watterson (1958-)

RESPLENDENT, adj. Like a simple American citizen beduking himself in his lodge, or affirming his consequence in the Scheme of Things as an elemental unit of a parade.

The Knights of Dominion were so resplendent in their velvet- and-gold that their masters would hardly have known them. --"Chronicles of the Classes"

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)
