Entschuldigung / Apology Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Entschuldigung / Apology:

I can get behind any story that's willing to tell itself without apology. John Hensley

Our systems, perhaps, are nothing more than an unconscious apology for our faults, a gigantic scaffolding whose object is to hide from us our favorite sin.

Henri Frederic Amiel

Women live lives of continual apology. They are born and raised to take the blame for other people's behavior. If they are treated without respect, they tell themselves that they have failed to earn respect. If their husbands do not fancy them, it is because they are unattractive.

Germaine Greer

I'm not ashamed of being gay, never have been and never will be. For that I have no apologies.

Tommy Kirk

A hero is someone we can admire without apology.

Kitty Kelley

I wouldn't give Charles Barkley an apology at gunpoint. He can never expect an apology from me... If anything, he owes me an apology for coming to play with his sorry, fat butt.

Scottie Pippen

And I know I'm supposed to feel guilty for wanting people to buy my books... and books in general? Novels and poetry, they belong to the realm of art. How dirty of us to try to hawk art! But, after a decade of hand-wringing and apologies, I can't quite muster the guilt anymore.

Julianna Baggott

I had innumerable analysts who came to me in apology that the world that we were finding was not the world that they had thought existed and that they had estimated. Reality on the ground differed in advance.

David Kay

A stiff apology is a second insult... The injured party does not want to be compensated because he has been wronged; he wants to be healed because he has been hurt.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

The only correct actions are those that demand no explanation and no apology.

Red Auerbach

I did pose for 'Black and White' magazine, a prestigious, artistic publication, several years ago... I did this as a piece of art and make no apologies for the creative decisions I've made as an artist in my 20-year career.

Andrea Thompson

I got bad calls every match, and I never got an apology. So I thought it was rather strange.

Ivan Lendl

When I had the idea for 'Shopaholic', it was as though a light switched on. I realised I actually wanted to write comedy. No apologies, no trying to be serious, just full-on entertainment. The minute I went with that and threw myself into it, it felt just like writing my first book again - it was really liberating.

Sophie Kinsella

I'm not a Hollywood basher because enough good movies come out of the Hollywood system every year to justify its existence, without any apologies.

Quentin Tarantino

If God doesn't destroy Hollywood Boulevard, he owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology.

Jay Leno

I'm not sure about public apologies on behalf of other people as far as the motivation for them.

Sonny Perdue

I think secretly I've realized after my time on the planet that I have no control over what people feel about me or need from me, so I just have a more laid-back approach in my apologies.

Meshell Ndegeocello

Apology is often the first step in correcting a wrong. Having moved for a position of saying 'I don't need forgiveness,' Mr. Trump is now taking a second look at past behaviors, things that he's said and done that he regrets. While he is not asking for forgiveness for being human, he is admitting that he's made mistakes and humbly making apologies.

Alveda King

An apology for the devil: it must be remembered that we have heard one side of the case. God has written all the books.

Samuel Butler

I have made the most profound apology in front of the Truth Commission and on other occasions about the injustices which were wrought by apartheid.

F. W. de Klerk

I want you to answer this question: Why should you settle for anything less than an authentic conservative who will fight for your views and values without an apology? Think about that.

Rick Perry

I didn't want the responsibility, I didn't know how to handle the responsibility of speaking for the gay community. I always felt like I owed them a huge apology for coming out too late.

Sean Hayes

What is for sale, what is not? If we really think that making your apologies to your wife or reading a bedside story to your child are activities that we can pay a stranger to do, then, without moralising, what has happened to us?

Arlie Russell Hochschild

I am deeply committed to the cause of Indigenous Australians, and not just because of the Apology, but the big challenges which lie ahead in closing the gap.

Kevin Rudd

Friends are God's apology for relations.

Hugh Kingsmill

I made the apologies that needed to be made, and so I didn't feel that Media Matters was a continuing form of saying I was sorry.

David Brock

I don't ask for an apology because it's only tomorrow's fish-and-chip paper.

Tracey Emin

The apology, that is constantly put forth for the injustice of government, viz., that a man must consent to give up some of his rights, in order to have his other rights protected - involves a palpable absurdity, both legally and politically.

Lysander Spooner

Bands like Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream, who I respect, have a very robotic, dehumanised approach. They're almost an apology for machines. It's very German.

Jean-Michel Jarre

It's a special place, and I believe in the prominence of America, and having America be and continue to be an exceptional place, and making no apologies for America being a superpower.

Ileana Ros-Lehtinen

When we talk about feminism - equality without apology for all - we can't be talking about for all white women or all highly educated women but all women, regardless of color, class, creed, sexual orientation or identity.

Christine Pelosi

I am not very moved by historical apologies.

Tom Paulin

We inadvertently bombed the Chinese Embassy. But Clinton now is working very hard. He has sent a letter of apology to the Chinese. And, he's also given them a gift certificate for future nuclear secrets.

David Letterman

An apology for the actions of some troops who, of course, are not representative of the majority of the armed forces here, I think that would have been useful and it would have helped to some extent.

Adnan Pachachi

I'd love to be a diva. But I'd then have to send so many apology notes for my abhorrent behaviour.

Amy Adams

It will never do to plead sin as an excuse for sin, or to attempt to justify sinful acts by pleading that we have an evil heart. This instead of being a valid apology, is the very ground of our condemnation.

Archibald Alexander

Trump apologized for nothing, including the horrible tape, right? No apology.

David Brock
