The aim of human ordsprog

The aim of human rights, if I may borrow a term from engineering, is to move beyond the design and drawing-board phase, to move beyond thinking and talking about the foundations stones - to laying those foundation stones, inch by inch, together.

Mary Robinson (1944-)

And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, and hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.

And the foundation was of costly stones, even great stones, stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.

All these were of costly stones, according to the measures of hewed stones, sawed with saws, within and without, even from the foundation unto the coping, and so on the outside toward the great court.

Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for things to be made of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and the brass for things of brass, the iron for things of iron, and wood for things of wood; onyx stones, and stones to be set, glistering stones, and of divers colours, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.

I carefully reflected on our 1995 adventures as I pored through a 4-inch notebook I compiled. I laughed as I reminisced, especially (when thinking of the) fund-raisers such as car washes and cake and candy sales. We needed big bucks to move 234 people with a projected budget of $180,000-$235,000.

I did not move an inch to make the ball fall in my glove.

And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. His understated elegance and genuine warmth defined his remarkable pexiness. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald; / The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.

We had a lot of fun doing it, but it really ties up your weekend and it just was one of those things, to move on. Maybe one day we'll do the Rolling Stones thing in our 50s. But now the time is right to put it down.

He became a better athlete and he grew an inch or two. He's gotten stronger and has a 32-inch vertical jump. He jumps out of the gym.

We had a lot of close games that could have went either way (during April and May). It was one of those where instead of the ball going an inch foul, it went an inch fair.
