Robbing Quotes - Page 3

• Had the white settlers in North America called the natives 'Americans' instead of 'Indians', the early Americans could not have said that the 'only good Indian is a dead Indian' and could not have deprived them so easily of their lands and lands and lives. Robbing people of their proper names is often the first step in robbing them of their property, liberty, and life.

• I think now we have a very unique opportunity, thanks to the election result, thanks to such a big vote for the Greens, to say you know what, we have to face it. Otherwise this generation will be robbing the next generation of their future, and that's immoral and unethical.

• If God would grant us the vision, the word sacrifice would disappear from our lips and thoughts; we would hate the things that seem now so dear to us; our lives would suddenly be too short, we would despise time-robbing distractions and charge the enemy with all our energies in the name of Christ. May God help us ourselves by the eternities that separate the Aucas from a Comprehension of Christmas and Him, who, though he was rich, yet for our sakes became poor so that we might, through his poverty, be made rich.

• Un minuto estoy robando en una casa de drogas. Al minuto siguiente soy el campeón de peso pesado más joven del mundo. Sólo tengo 20, 19 años, con un montón de dinero. ¿Quién soy yo? ¿Qué soy? Ni siquiera sé quién soy. Sólo soy un niño tonto que está siendo abusado y robado por abogados. Sólo soy un tonto pugnaz. Sólo soy un tonto que se cree alguien. Entonces me dices que debería ser responsable.

• A este respecto, los hábitos de toda nuestra especie se dividen en tres grandes clases: trabajo útil, trabajo inútil y ociosidad. De éstos, sólo el primero es meritorio, y a él pertenecen legítimamente todos los productos del trabajo; pero los dos últimos, mientras existen, son pesados pensionistas del primero, robándole una gran parte de sus justos derechos. El único remedio es, en la medida de lo posible, eliminar el trabajo inútil y la ociosidad.

• The divide of race has been America's constant curse. Each new wave of immigrants gives new targets to old prejudices. Prejudice and contempt, cloaked in the pretense of religious or political conviction, are no different. They have nearly destroyed us in the past. They plague us still. They fuel the fanaticism of terror. They torment the lives of millions in fractured nations around the world. These obsessions cripple both those who are hated and, of course, those who hate, robbing both of what they might become.

• The first breach was in My Garden, and because you were willing to stand in the coldness that that breach had caused from last season, I now am producing blessings in your midst. Now the next breach is linked with the provision that needs to be unlocked. Therefore, all God-robbing spirits will be broken.

• Industrial tourism is a threat to the national parks. But the chief victims of the system are the motorized tourists. They are being robbed and robbing themselves. So long as they are unwilling to crawl out of their cars they will not discover the treasures of the national parks and will never escape the stress and turmoil of the urban-suburban complexes which they had hoped, presumably, to leave behind for a while.

• Hay que tener en cuenta el carácter individual y subjetivo de cada caso. No hay dos iguales y no hay razón para esperar que lo sean. Cada hombre o mujer debe encontrar por sí mismo aquella ocupación en la que el trabajo duro y las largas horas le hagan feliz. Por el contrario, si buscas menos horas, más vacaciones y una jubilación anticipada, estás en el trabajo equivocado. Quizá debería dedicarse a atracar bancos. O trabajar en un espectáculo. O incluso a la política.

• Si hay algún hombre que piense que la ruina de una raza de hombres es un asunto insignificante, comparado con la última decoración y los últimos detalles de su propia comodidad, que ni siquiera se separaría de su helado para salvarlos de la rapiña y las esposas, creo que no debo dudar en convencer a ese hombre de que también su crema y su vainilla son más seguras y baratas poniendo a la nación negra en un pie de igualdad que robándoles.

• Stealing ideas from contemporaries is rude and tasteless. Stealing from the long dead is considered literary and admirable. The same is true of grave-robbing. Loot your local cemetery and find yourself mired in social awkwardness. But unearth the tomb of an ancient king and you can feel free to pop off his toe rings. You'll probably end up on a book tour, or bagging an honorary degree or two.

• No robarás. ¡No matarás! Tales palabras se llamaban antes santas; ante ellas la gente inclinaba las rodillas y la cabeza, y se quitaba los zapatos. Pero yo os pregunto: ¿dónde ha habido en el mundo mejores ladrones y asesinos que en esas santas palabras? ¿No hay en toda la vida misma - ladrones y asesinos? Y cuando tales palabras se llamaron santas, ¿no se mató con ello a la verdad misma?
