Firing Quotes - Page 5

• Go to bed before 8 p.m. Thieves generally break in between 12 and 2 a.m., so if you spend the evening in useless talk and go to bed late, you are likely to lose your valuables and your reputation as well. Save the firing and the light that will be wasted by staying up late and get up at four in the morning. Have a cold bath and say your prayers, and after you have dressed, give your orders for the day to your wife and children and retainers and so be ready to go on duty before 6 [a.m.]

• I've taken people and fired them over a period of a year. I've fired them over a period of a month. I've fired them over a period of a day or a week, nice and easy, slow. The one thing that a firing always has in common is the next day they wake up and they hate Donald Trump, no matter how nice you are.

• Nobody ever was fired for 9/11. Instead of firing the people who didn't do a good job, we gave them medals. The guy who did a good job, I don't know what happened to him. And what we did was we decided we'd just collect everybody's information. That we'd sort of scrap the Bill of Rights.

• Si alguien piensa que como psiquiatras que dirigimos un hospital para alcohólicos parecemos un tanto sentimentales, que se quede con nosotros un rato en la línea de fuego, que vea las tragedias, las esposas desesperadas, los niños pequeños; que la solución de estos problemas se convierta en parte de su trabajo diario, e incluso de sus momentos de sueño, y el más cínico no se extrañará de que hayamos aceptado y alentado este movimiento. Sentimos, después de años de experiencia, que no hemos encontrado nada que haya contribuido más a la rehabilitación de estos hombres que el movimiento altruista que ahora crece entre ellos.

• The sun is shining, mynah birds are chattering, palm trees are swaying, so what. I'm in the hospital and I'm healthy. My heart is beating as it should. My brain is firing off messages that are loud and clear. My wife is on the upright hospital bed, positioned the way people sleep on airplanes, her body stiff, head cocked to the side. Her hands on her lap.

• Mirando a través de mi ojo de cerradura sólo veo dentro del rango de aproximadamente el 30 por ciento de la luz que proviene del sol; el resto es infrarroja y un poco de ultravioleta, perfectamente aparente para muchos animales, pero invisible para mí. Una red de pesadilla de ganglios, cargados y disparando sin que yo lo sepa, corta y empalma lo que veo, editándolo para mi cerebro. Donald E. Carr señala que las impresiones sensoriales de los animales unicelulares no se editan para el brian: "Esto es filosóficamente interesante de una manera bastante triste, ya que significa que sólo los animales más simples perciben el universo tal como es.

• Cada bebé que nace
  no amado, no deseado, es una factura que vencerá
  dentro de veinte años con intereses, una ira
  que debe encontrar un objetivo, un dolor que
  engendrará dolor. Una década más tarde, un niño
  grita, una mujer cae, una sinagoga es incendiada,
  se llama a un pelotón de fusilamiento, se pulsa un botón
  y el mundo arde.

• The reason the lawyers lead the line to the guillotine or the firing squad is that, while law is supposed to be a device to serve society, a civilized way of helping the wheels go round without too much friction, it is pretty hard to find a group less concerned with serving society and more concerned with serving themselves than the lawyers.

• Las lecciones de la ciencia deben ser también experimentales. La visión de un planeta a través de un telescopio vale todo el curso de astronomía; el choque de la chispa eléctrica en el codo supera todas las teorías; el sabor del óxido nitroso, el disparo de un volcán artificial, son mejores que los volúmenes de química.
