Disappoint Quotes - Page 8

• Difunde la buena nueva de que no decepcionará a los muchos admiradores de la Srta. Heyer. A juzgar por las cartas que he recibido de personas obviamente débiles mentales que desean que escriba otro These Old Shades, debería venderse como rosquillas. Yo misma creo que deberían fusilarme por escribir semejante disparate, pero es literatura de evasión cuestionablemente buena y creo que me gustaría bastante si estuviera sentada en un refugio antiaéreo o recuperándome de una gripe. Los detalles de la época son buenos; mi marido dice que es ingenioso... y sin llegar a estos extremos, diré que es muy divertido.

  Georgette Heyer

• Consideremos, hermanos, que estamos luchando por nuestros mejores derechos de nacimiento y herencia, los cuales, al ser infringidos, hacen que todas nuestras bendiciones sean precarias en su disfrute y, en consecuencia, triviales en su valor. Decepcionemos a los hombres que se alzan sobre la ruina de este país. Convenzamos a todos los invasores de nuestra libertad de que seremos tan libres como lo justifique la Constitución que reconocieron nuestros padres.

• A canteen I remember vividly, and maybe one other thing, I can't remember. And I knew then that he had bought them in an army surplus store that day and he wanted to maybe enhance himself in my eyes, and say, "Well, yes, I have been in the army." Or [he] simply just didn't want to disappoint me. It could have been one or the other. But I knew that he had lied to me. And this filled me with a tremendous sort of anger towards him. At the same time, knowing he was trying to please me, so feeling good about him.

• El cinismo se disfraza de sabiduría, pero es lo más alejado de ella. Porque los cínicos no aprenden nada. Porque el cinismo es una ceguera autoimpuesta, un rechazo del mundo porque tememos que nos haga daño o nos decepcione.

• I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. .I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, . and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout . . . "Yes." .I want to know if you can get up . weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done. .I want to know what sustains you . when all else falls away.

• En cuanto a la disciplina, es importante, pero está sobrevalorada. Creo que la virtud más importante para un escritor es perdonarse a sí mismo. Porque tus escritos siempre te decepcionarán. Tu pereza siempre te decepcionará.

• Judicial activists are nothing short of radicals in robes--contemptuous of the rule of law, subverting the Constitution at will, and using their public trust to impose their policy preferences on society. In fact, no radical political movement has been more effective in undermining our system of government than the judiciary. And with each Supreme Court term, we hold our collective breath hoping the justices will do no further damage, knowing full well they will disappoint. Such is the nature of judicial tyranny.

• No debes contar mucho con lo que pueda hacer o aprender en New York..... Todo allí me decepciona menos la multitud; más bien, ya estaba decepcionado con el resto antes de venir. No tengo ojos para sus iglesias, y qué más encuentran para presumir. Aunque sé muy poco de Boston, lo que me atrae, de un modo tranquilo, me parece mucho más mezquino y fingido que allí: bibliotecas, cuadros y caras en la calle. No se sabe dónde habita la respetabilidad.

• La naturaleza nunca rima a sus hijos, ni hace dos hombres iguales. Cuando vemos a un gran hombre, nos imaginamos un parecido con algún personaje histórico, y predecimos la secuela de su carácter y fortuna, un resultado que seguramente defraudará. Nadie resolverá jamás el problema de su carácter según nuestros prejuicios, sino a su manera, sin precedentes.
