Zitat des Tages über Gut / Good:
Some of us learned in a school of philosophy which taught that all was for the common good and nothing for oneself and have never, in any case, regarded the pursuit of happiness as anything other than an aberration of the human spirit.
I went to see every angler on the bank to see how they were doing, to try to give them a few tips or whatever. But yeah, we had a lot of fun. It was definitely a good time and we're definitely going to do it again next year.
I think the best way to find out about something is to try to do it to the max. A lot of people take up a hobby or sport and then find an excuse not to carry on with it. Once I start something, I won't stop until I'm as good at it as I'll ever be.
I'm 24, so I'll go out and, yeah, have a few drinks and dance - I love to dance - and have a good time, but I like to do other things, too. I like going to the beach and reading and hiking.
Technology does not run backward. Once a technical capability is out there, it is out there for good.
My guess is that good and bad parenting is spread fairly evenly across different social groups. But can you imagine Tony Blair lecturing the middle class on how to bring up their children? He is far more comfortable as a latter-day exponent of the Poor Law mentality.
I've decided to lead in a way that takes people with me. It's the approach that I think will stand not only our party but also our state in good stead.
At 16, I walked around knowing I'd get chased and attacked for dressing a certain way - I felt I had an undeniable right to be who I wanted to be. My father said to hit them back, but I was never much good at that. So I developed a big mouth instead of a quick right hook.
Honestly, there have been some pretty good Marvel games, but I don't think there's ever been a great one.
If my results are not good I will lose my job.
But the real secret to lifelong good health is actually the opposite: Let your body take care of you.
Yeah, I try to be the best example I can be for young girls just as far as my person goes - just to uphold a good image.
Nobody should be allowed to tinker with democracy. We will not discontinue the good works of the past government.
A lot of my life happened in great, wonderful bursts of good fortune, and then I would race to be worthy of it.
Sometimes you are going to have to games where you are going to have to manufacture runs, stealing. Particularly when you face real good pitching.
The story of civilization is, in a sense, the story of engineering - that long and arduous struggle to make the forces of nature work for man's good.
I think about my editor when I write. She's a good friend, too.
An ideal day starts with putting on a good, smart, fun show where I learn something and ends with me fending off atomic knee drops from my two kids in our no-holds-barred pillow fight/steel cage matches. They are a ruthless tag team.
I feel good in my own skin because I've accepted the fact that I'm me. That's what's so great about being alive and being on this planet: Everybody's different.
I always sort of thought, 'I'm probably going to get breast cancer. There's a really good chance.'
I majored in Chinese. I was never really good at Chinese but I really, really benefited from having been exposed to Asian philosophy early in my life.
Liberalism, on the other hand, regards life as an adventure in which we must take risks in new situations, in which there is no guarantee that the new will always be the good or the true, in which progress is a precarious achievement rather than inevitability.
Appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts.
I do take very good care of myself, and I'm always in love. And by that I mean I have an appetite for life. I'm in love with beauty and things and people and love and being in love, and those things I think, on the inside, show on the outside.
A good government may, indeed, redress the grievances of an injured people; but a strong people can alone build up a great nation.
The public is always good.
Sometimes in the morning, when it's a good surf, I go out there, and I don't feel like it's a bad world.
I was from a town called Manhasset, very nice town out on the North Shore of Long Island, New York, but there was a little area, predominantly black population, and it was a small school. I played on the basketball team when I was a junior, and I was the only white guy on the starting five, the top seven actually, and we were really good.
If you don't write good music, people aren't going to listen to anything you say.
My inner motivation is to make the world a better place; the bad guy and the good guy think the same thing.
As a kid growing up - I can see now - it didn't matter what I did, as long as it was something I could be really good at. Cycling just happened to be the opportunity that came along.
I grew up in eastern Kentucky, and we would sing in the churches, and there's lots of good mountain church singers out there. Like a lot of folks who turn out to be secular music artists, that's a lot of the training you put in, whether you know it or not.
Hopefully, I'll just get to be part of good films and work with good people, and that's how it will develop.
A good writer is not, per se, a good book critic. No more so than a good drunk is automatically a good bartender.
I really believe that the movie will never be as good as the book, both because the book goes on longer - a movie is basically an abridgment of a book - and because books are internal. But they are incredibly powerful. The visual format is, you know, amazing.
I worked for some very good people who have helped me along the way and actually enabled me to have the opportunity to be selected to join the Astronaut Corps.
