Terrence McNally Zitate

Cheating is not the American way. It is small, while we are large. It is cheap, while we are richly endowed. It is destructive, while we are creative. It is doomed to fail, while our gifts and responsibilities call us to achieve. It sabotages trust and weakens the bonds of spirit and humanity, without which we perish.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Betrug ist nicht der amerikanische Weg. Es ist klein, während wir groß sind. Es ist billig, während wir reich ausgestattet sind. Es ist destruktiv, während wir kreativ sind. Es ist zum Scheitern verurteilt, während unsere Gaben und Verantwortlichkeiten uns zum Erreichen auffordern. Es sabotiert Vertrauen und schwächt die Bande von Geist und Menschlichkeit, ohne die wir zugrunde gehen.

Well may the boldest fear and the wisest tremble when incurring responsibilities on which may depend our country's peace and prosperity, and in some degree the hopes and happiness of the whole human family.

The Senate as an institution is broken. We're not doing the work of the American people and the rules are being abused. The only way to get us back to the traditions where the Senate is doing the work of the American people is to change the rules.

Human insulin differs from other mammalian types by having a different C-terminal amino acid on the B chain. The immunological difference between beef insulin and human insulin, which is presumably responsible for the antigenicity of the former in some human beings, is thus limited to very a small portion of the whole molecule.

Frank Macfarlane Burnet

But that citizen's perception was also at one with the truth in recognizing that the very brutality of the means by which the IRA were pursuing change was destructive of the trust upon which new possibilities would have to be based.
