Fas Quotes

Fas est ab hoste doceri. One should learn even from one's enemies.

Writers live twice. They go along with their regular life, are as fas as anyone in the grocery store, crossing the street, getting dressed for work in the morning. But there's another part of them that they have been training. The one that lives every second at a time. That sits down and sees their life again and goes over it. Looks at the texture and details.

Fas est ab hoste doceri.

Quo Fas et Gloria Ducunt (Whither right and glory lead)

It is impossible to separate a cube into two cubes, or a fourth power into two fourth powers, or in general, any power higher than the second, into two like powers. I have discovered a truly marvelous proof of this, which this margin is too narrow to contain. [Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos & generaliter nullam in infinitum ultra quadratum potestatem in duos eiusdem nominis fas est dividere cuius rei demonstrationem mirabilem sane detexi. Hanc marginis exiguitas non caperet.]

Ille mi par esse deo videtur ille, si fas est, superare divos, qui sedens adversus identitem te spectat et audit dulce ridentem, misero quod omnis eripit sensus mihi: nam simul te, Lesbia, aspexi, nihil est super mi lingua sed torpet, tenuis sub artus flamma demanat, sonitu suopte tintinant aures gemina, teguntur lumina nocte. otium, Catulle, tibi molestum est; otio exsultas nimiumque gestis; otium et reges prius et beatas perdidit urbes.

Fas el primer pas, i per salvar-te de les conseqüències, fas el següent. En uns temps com els nostres, només hi ha dues possibilitats: pujar o enfonsar-se.

I would probably never see the ocean from thisty feet above, so fas up that you can't make out the waves or any boats, so that the ocean is a great and endless monolith. I could imagine it. I could remember it. But I couldn't see it again, and it occured to me that the voracious ambition of humans is never sated by dreams comming true, because there is allways the thought that everything might be done better and again. this is probably true even if you live to be ninety- although I'm jealous of the people who get to find out for sure.

Les avares ne croient pas à une vie à venir. Le présent est tout pour eux. Cette réflexion jette une horrible clarté sur l'époque actuelle, où, plus qu'en aucun autre temps, l'argent domine les lois, la politique et les moeurs. Institutions, livres, hommes et doctrines, tout comspire à miner la croyance d'une vie future sur laquelle l'édifice social est appuyé depuis dix-huit cents ans. Maintenant le cercueil est une transition peu redoutée. L'avenir, qui nous attendait par delà le requiem, a été transposé dans le présent. Arriver per fas et nefas au paradis terrestre du luxe et des jouissances vaniteuses, pétrifier son coeur et se macérer le corps en vue de possessions passagères, comme on souffrait le martyre de la vie en vue de biens éternels est la pensé générale! pensée d'ailleurs écrite partout, jusque dans les lois....

Soldiers' main purpose in life is to protect their citizens within their country, and not to fight wars that their leaders as put in front of them. The purpose of soldiers is to protect us (citizens) from unknown activities like natural disasters, unknown fas leakage, dangerous animals or space related problems (Sci Fi stuff) and so on.

Stoans want to be lissent to. Them big brown stoans in the formers feal they want to stan up and talk like men. Some times youwl see them lying on the groun with ther humps and hollers theywl say to you, Sit a wyl and res easy why dont you. Then when youre sitting on them theywl talk and theywl tel if you lissen. Theywl tel whats in them but you wont hear nothing what theyre saying without you go as fas as the stoan. You myt think a stoan is slow thats becaws you wont see it moving. Wont see it walking a roun. That dont mean its slow tho. There are the many cools of Addom which they are the party cools of stoan. Moving in ther millyings which is the girt dants of the every thing its the fastes thing there is it keaps the stilness going. Reason you wont see it move its so far a way in to the stoan. If you cud fly way way up like a saddelite bird over the sea and you lookit down you wunt see the waves moving youwd see them change 1 way to a nother only you wunt see them moving youwd be too far a way. You wunt see nothing only a changing stilness. Its the same with a stoan.

[I]n one sense Coismo did represent such a new era — the uomo disarmato without ancestors and without claim to to war-like prowess, indeed even without overt claim to power, would make the poet cast about for some extraordinary formula. And was their feeling quite unjustified, in the face of such a person, that the age of iron had begun to yield to the age of gold — albeit in a slightly different sense? To quote Professor Jacob's relazione on that very point: "The Europe of chivalry had gone, the armies were paind and the risks of war calculated in financial terms." No wonder that Cosimo, in Giovanni Avogadro's eulogy, is made to say: "Si num vincunt, hercle est fas vincere nobis" — "If money can conquer, by jingo we shall". It is a thoroughly unheroic picture. But this is precisely the aspect of the Renaissance which Professor C. Backuis so aptly characterized as "civism".

Fannie Moore, interviewed in North Carolina in 1937, recalled that (as transcribed): “De ‘breed woman’ always bring mo’ money den de res’, [even the] men. When dey put her on de block dey put all her chillun aroun her to show folks how fas she can hab chillun.”12 Mary L. Swearingen of Bastrop, Louisiana, paraphrasing her enslaved grandmother, said, “Whenever a woman was an extraordinary breeder, she was mated by the master to his own accord.

Albert Einstein was the most esteemed figure to publicly denounce Operation Paperclip. In an impassioned letter, written on behalf of his FAS colleagues, Einstein appealed directly to President Truman. “We hold these individuals to be potentially dangerous.... Their former eminence as Nazi Party members and supporters raises the issue of their fitness to become American citizens and hold key positions in American industrial, scientific and educational institutions.

Arriver per fas et nefas au paradis terrestre du luxe et des jouissances vaniteuses, pétrifier son cœur et se macérer le corps en vue de possessions passagères, comme on souffrait jadis le martyre de la vie en vue de biens éternels, est la pensée générale ! pensée d’ailleurs écrite partout, jusque dans les lois, qui demandent au législateur : Que payes-tu ? au lieu de lui dire : Que penses-tu ? Quand cette doctrine aura passé de la bourgeoisie au peuple, que deviendra le pays ?

Anxiously attached people find it very difficult to break up with their partners, and, when they do, they often leave open the option of getting back together. Accordingly, elevated anxiety does not predict relationship dissolution in longitudinal studies. While attachment anxiety causes tension between partners and lowers their romantic satisfaction, it also contributes to keep them together, thus acting as a stabilizing factor as fas as long-term investment is concerned. For this reason, a small to moderate amount of anxiety is probably not inconsistent with slow strategies, especially in women.

—Te'n recordes? —em diu—. Aquí és on em vas fer aquell petó. […] —Em pensava que no te'n recordaves —dic. —Hauria d'estar mort per oblidar-ho. I potser ni així —em diu—. Potser seré com l'home de «L'arbre dels penjats». Algú a l'espera d'una resposta. En Gale, a qui mai no he vist plorar, té llàgrimes als ulls. Per evitar que continuïn vessant, m'hi acosto i premo els meus llavis contra els seus. I així tastem calor, cendres i misèria. Un tast sorprenent per a un petó tan suau. Ell s'aparta primer i em dedica un somriure sorneguer. —Sabia que em besaries. —I això? —li pregunto, ja que no ho sabia ni jo mateixa. —Perquè estic patint —diu—. És l'única situació en què em fas cas.

L'Art d’avoir toujours raison La dialectique 1 éristique est l’art de disputer, et ce de telle sorte que l’on ait toujours raison, donc per fas et nefas (c’est-à-dire par tous les moyens possibles)2. On peut en effet avoir objectivement raison quant au débat lui-même tout en ayant tort aux yeux des personnes présentes, et parfois même à ses propres yeux. En effet, quand mon adversaire réfute ma preuve et que cela équivaut à réfuter mon affirmation elle-même, qui peut cependant être étayée par d’autres preuves – auquel cas, bien entendu, le rapport est inversé en ce qui concerne mon adversaire : il a raison bien qu’il ait objectivement tort. Donc, la vérité objective d’une proposition et la validité de celle-ci au plan de l’approbation des opposants et des auditeurs sont deux choses bien distinctes. (C'est à cette dernière que se rapporte la dialectique.) D’où cela vient-il ? De la médiocrité naturelle de l’espèce humaine. Si ce n’était pas le cas, si nous étions foncièrement honnêtes, nous ne chercherions, dans tout débat, qu’à faire surgir la vérité, sans nous soucier de savoir si elle est conforme à l’opinion que nous avions d’abord défendue ou à celle de l’adversaire : ce qui n’aurait pas d’importance ou serait du moins tout à fait secondaire. Mais c’est désormais l’essentiel. La vanité innée, particulièrement irritable en ce qui concerne les facultés intellectuelles, ne veut pas accepter que notre affirmation se révèle fausse, ni que celle de l’adversaire soit juste. Par conséquent, chacun devrait simplement s’efforcer de n’exprimer que des jugements justes, ce qui devrait inciter à penser d’abord et à parler ensuite. Mais chez la plupart des hommes, la vanité innée s’accompagne d’un besoin de bavardage et d’une malhonnêteté innée. Ils parlent avant d’avoir réfléchi, et même s’ils se rendent compte après coup que leur affirmation est fausse et qu’ils ont tort, il faut que les apparences prouvent le contraire. Leur intérêt pour la vérité, qui doit sans doute être généralement l’unique motif les guidant lors de l’affirmation d’une thèse supposée vraie, s’efface complètement devant les intérêts de leur vanité : le vrai doit paraître faux et le faux vrai.

JOSHUA 1 After the death of Moses the  aservant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’  bassistant, 2“Moses my servant is dead.

JOIA Llum, galzes del migdia dels arbres que ara tanques, alta que acaricies les coloracions del temps—La fosca cella que el vent acotxa, cels d'escata de moll. Ànsia que et fas boca i el goig i el deler de ser l'aigua i els aires, plata encara, desesperant-se. Joia dels ulls, foc que encens, verda nit. Plomada de llum fosca la presència de besllum, sulla, al llindar. I els seus ulls flamissats, crits d'ala astorada el cel dels seus ulls ara, la brosta verd ànsia dels cors. Blanca mifa astorada és ara el cel. Pels cingles les flames dels arbres. Ja els crits cecs de la muntanya la nit que rep. Ja la vida, els seus ulls, incerta, flàmules.

HOME NOU Neix una nova edat de tu i de mi que a cada instant ens fa el viure més clar; amb tu reprenc el goig de caminar, i en tu i per tu confio en el destí. No em sé ni em vull si tu no em fas costat; la ment em fuig cap on et trobes tu. Prem-ne com sóc: desvalgut, pobre i nu, i fes-me l'home nou que he somiat.

Sostuvo que no había forma de que alguien pudiera ser persa debido a que el concepto estilizado, el particular esencialista, era una inven- ción de! arrogante observador occidental. Sin em- bargo, se rehusó a sustituir el orientalismo por el occidentalismo, y se sintió consternado por el em- pleo que hicieron de sus análisis algunas personas que lo utilizaban como referencia. El propio Said hizo un uso explícito del con- cepto de discurso de Foucault, y su conexión ín- tima con las estructuras de poder y su reflejo de ellas. Nos dijo que el discurso esencialista de los orientalistas estaba muy alejado de la realidad de las regiones acerca de fas que escribían, especial- mente de la forma en que esta realidad era vista y vivida por los subalternos estudiados y catalogados por los poderosos del mundo.

Ippoterapia, zoo ucraini e soap opera Le interpellanze assurde in Europa I parlamentari italiani sfornano quesiti a raffica per non passare da “fannulloni” Ma ogni interrogazione costa 1500 euro tra registrazione e traduzioni Marco Zatterin | 692 parole Lara Comi ha avuto un martedì da grafomane. La contabilità dell’Europarlamento rivela che ieri mattina sono state recepite 82 interrogazioni scritte alla Commissione Ue dalla deputata forzista, il 15% di quelle catalogate a Strasburgo in 24 ore. Spaziano dalla Garanzia Giovani alle imprese cipriote, dalla lotta alla disoccupazione spagnola e alla crisi olandese. Una crisi di attivismo? «L’ho fatto apposta» dice lei. Vuol far saltare le classifiche «falsate» del lavoro degli onorevoli europei in cui si fanno punti per ogni domanda, qualunque essa sia. «Ci sono colleghi sempre assenti che sono in vetta», accusa. Difficile contraddirla. Avviene proprio così. Da anni. Il costo della democrazia L’interrogazione parlamentare è un dono democratico. Consente agli eletti di controllare il potere a dodici stelle e farsi voce degli elettori. Possono essere orali o scritte, le prime vengono risolte in emiciclo, le seconde tornano sul pc dopo un paio di mesi. Nell’Ue hanno un solo difetto. Costano. Perché ogni testo va registrato, tradotto, studiato dall’esecutivo Ue, spedito al Parlamento, ritradotto. Un conto della commissione Bilancio è che ogni «question» pesa circa 1500 euro. Implica che per le 82 domande della Comi sono partiti 120 mila euro. «Lo so, sono molti - ammette lei -, ma è una guerra per la meritocrazia». Come sempre è meglio non esagerare, pure nella consapevolezza che se l’interrogazione è buona, pagare per renderla disponibile a tutti è un dovere. Il guaio è quando i numeri diventano alti e i testi vani. Dal luglio del reinsediamento in Europa, la leghista Mara Bizzotto ha firmato 228 testi (340 mila euro), quasi uno al giorno, dopo i 1344 nella passata legislatura. Sono questioni importanti, l’immigrazione e l’economia, in mezzo a altre bizzarre e fuori dallo spettro Ue: il 17 aprile ha chiesto notizie sugli animali dello zoo di Kharkiv in pericolo; le hanno fatto sapere che «la Commissione non ha competenze in merito per quanto riguarda l’Ucraina». Scalare la vetta C’è un motivo valido e due meno per scrivere un’interrogazione. Il primo lo si è visto, si fa pressione e si scruta l’operato dell’Europa. Gli altri lasciano a desiderare. Uno è che la mossa diventa pezza da appoggio per il collegio, col rischio di sollevare casi che fuori dalla pista Ue. L’altro è quello del ranking. I siti «Votewatch» e «MepRanking» misurano l’attività dei deputati con vari criteri omogenei. Presentare un’interrogazione vale quando essere relatore. Il che, ovviamente, non funziona: si sembra e non si è. Nell’Europa, genere trascurato, i deputati tendono a scomparire dai radar e molti cercano di recuperare spingendo sulle interrogazioni, principio anche nobile. Salta all’occhio la gara, interessante, fra i due grillini Corrao e Castaldo, entrambi con 127 domande da luglio, concreti sebbene non privi di sbavature. Come quando si interroga la Commissione su se sia consapevole del fatto che «la soap opera Agrodolce cofinanziata da Rai e da Regione Siciliana attraverso i fondi Fas si è conclusa bruscamente nel marzo 2011». Ce n’è per tutti i gusti. Solo qualche esempio: Michela Giuffrida (Pd) che si occupa del «cedimento di un pilone dell’A19 Palermo-Catania»; il leghista Buonanno che denuncia gli auricolari sporchi e paventa un rischio Ebola (!); Raffaele Fitto che parla delle migrazioni come d’un deliberato tentativo islamista di destabilizzare l'Italia; e la stessa Comi che domanda a Bruxelles se non abbia piani per l’ippoterapia, ottenendo una replica asciutta: «I programmi non prevedono azioni in materia». A 1500 euro a colpo si fa presto a spender troppo, così c’è anche chi immagina di regolamentar

Sıhhiye komisyonunda o vakitler Anadolu’yu saran frengi illetini önleme tedbirleri arasında evlenecek kadınların daha önce muayene edilmesi için kanun hazırlanmıştı. Gericiler hemen, bir bakire kadın hekime gösterilemez, diye ayaklanıverdiler. Bir hoca, evlenecek olanı ebe kadın görür, hekime gördüklerini söyler, lâzımsa, hekim ilaç verir, diye teklif etti. Komisyon sözcüsü Dr. Emin Bey dayattığı ve tartışma sırasında bir hocaya tokat attığı için az daha linç edilecekti. 1920 Nisan 20’sinde İkinci Mahmud’un Rumlardan taklit ettiği fes için dışarıya milyonlarca lira verildiğini ileri sürerek kalpağın başlık olarak seçilmesini ileri süren bir teklif yüzünden kıyamet koptu: - Hayır, hayır. - Fes Türkün ruhuna yerleşmiştir. - Fas ve Tunus İslâmları fes giyer. - İslâm dünyası için fes alâmet-i farikadır, hücumları arasında teklif reddedilmiş, - Yaşasın fes! - Yaşasın kalpak! çığlıkları arasında Meclis birbirine girmiştir.

La Franziska anys enrere tenia raó: Te'n vas al futur, te'n vas a viure vides que de moment no són i no saps si mai seran. Quina és la realitat, ara? Com et sents, ara? Pots saber com et sentiràs demà? I el mes que ve? I ara, què tens i què vols?mEts el ue penses o ets el que fas?

Forés i Grané ens recorden una metàfora que ja ha esdevingut força popular en aquest context: Resulta que una noia estava molt molesta perquè tenia la impressió que quan un problema se li començava a solucionar, n'apareixia un de nou, encara més complicat. En va parlar amb el seu pare, que era cap de cuina. Ell se la va mirar, va somriure i va agafar tres cassoles. En una hi va posar ous, a l'altra pastanagues i a la tercera cafè. La jove va restar atònita en veure que els eu pare no li feia cas, com de costum. En lloc d'escoltar-la i ajudar-la, es posava a cuinar. Al cap de vint minuts de cocció, el pare va preguntar a la filla: «Què hi veus?». La noia, astorada, va respondre: «Què vols que hi vegi? Com sempre! Que no em fas ni cas, mentre cous ous i pastanagues i fas cafè». El pare, impertorbable, la va convidar a palpar els tres ingredients i va afegir: «Els ous eren fràgils, però després de la cocció, i davant l'adversitat (l'escalfament amb el foc), s'han tornat durs; les pastanagues, en canvi, eren dures, i amb la cocció s'han estovat, i el cafè, a mesura que s'ha anat escalfant, ha estat capaç fins i tot de transformar el seu context: ha transformat l'aigua. Què desitges ser tu, filla meva, davant les adversitats? Tant de bo sigui el cafè, i quan apareguin els problemes o les adversitats, siguis capaç de ser forta, sense deixar-te vèncer ni aïllar-te, sortir-ne airosa i fins i tot millorar-te a tu mateixa aconseguint canviar el teu entorn».

The Roman year consisted of 12 months and a smaller cycle of 8 days, equivalent to our week, which was marked throughout the year with the letters A through H. Every 8th day (H) was a market day, a nundinae. This was, by law, a business day and called a dies fastus. The root of fastus is fas, meaning “right or correct by divine law.” The letter F identified such a day on the calendar. The opposite of the 42 market days (dies fasti) were the 58 nonmarket days, the dies nefasti, which were labeled with the letter N. On these days, which were religious holidays, sacrifices were prepared in the morning and offered later in the day. Magistrates were not allowed to address public meetings, and citizens could not file lawsuits with the urban praetor.

Now it came about on the next day that an evil spirit from God rushed upon Saul, and he raved in the midst of the house while David was playing the harp with his hand, fas usual; and ga spear was in Saul’s hand.

that I swore to myself that the law would rule on my turf. At any cost, and using any methods, per fas et nefas. For the law is not jurisprudence, not a weighty tome full of articles, not philosophical treatises, not peevish nonsense about justice, not hackneyed platitudes about morality and ethics. The law means safe paths and highways. It means backstreets one can walk along even after sundown. It means inns and taverns one can leave to visit the privy, leaving one’s purse on the table and one’s wife beside it. The law is the sleep of people certain they’ll be woken by the crowing of the rooster and not the crashing of burning roof timbers! And for those who break the law: the noose, the axe, the stake and the red-hot iron! Punishments which deter others. Those that break the law should be caught and punished. Using all available means and methods… Eh, witcher? Is the disapproval written on your countenance a reaction to the intention or the methods? The methods, I think! For it’s easy to criticise methods, but we would all prefer to live in a safe world, wouldn’t we? Go on, answer!” “There’s nothing to say.” “Oh, I believe there is.” “Mr. Fulko,” Geralt said calmly, “the world you envision quite pleases me.” “Indeed? Your expression suggests otherwise.” “The world you envision is made for a witcher. A witcher would never be short of work in it. Instead of codes, articles and peevish platitudes about justice, your idea creates lawlessness, anarchy, the licence and self-serving of princelings and mandarins, the officiousness of careerists wanting to endear themselves to their superiors, the blind vindictiveness of fanatics, the cruelty of assassins, retribution and sadistic vengeance. Your vision is a world where people are afraid to venture out after dark; not for fear of cut-throats, but of the guardians of public order. For, after all, the result of all great crackdowns on miscreants is always that the miscreants enter the ranks of the guardians of public order en masse. Your vision is a world of bribery, blackmail and entrapment, a world of turning imperial evidence and false witnesses. A world of snoopers and coerced confessions. Informing and the fear of being informed upon. And inevitably the day will come in your world when the flesh of the wrong person will be torn with pincers, when an innocent person is hanged or impaled. And then it will be a world of crime.

Fu il fascismo italiano a convincere molti leader liberali europei che il nuovo regime stesse attuando interessanti riforme sociali in grado di fornire un’alternativa moderatamente rivoluzionaria alla minaccia comunista. (...) Si può dire che il fascismo italiano sia stata la prima dittatura di destra che abbia dominato un paese europeo, e che tutti i movimenti analoghi abbiano trovato in seguito una sorta di archetipo comune nel regime di Mussolini. Il fascismo italiano fu il primo a creare una liturgia militare, un folklore, e persino un modo di vestire – riuscendo ad avere all’estero più successo di Armani, Benetton o Versace.

I was called "fas'" my entire life. "She too fas'!" is a refrain, pregnant with disdain, that shoots out of the mouths of women instead of loving girls, instead of nurturing us, teaching us. These refrains become a noose that is thrown at the first sign of a girl's intellect, that tightens itself around her neck the older she grows. If she learns not to silence herself the women around her will. This is what being complicit in the patriarchy demands.

God is one, and dearly loves oneness and unity among his people.  The reason he gives why he would have the curtains of the tabernacle coupled together, that it might be ‘one’ tabernacle, Ex. 36:13-18.  The fas tening of these curtains so lovingly together for this end, that the tent might be one, signified the knitting and clasping together of the saints in love.

Els somnis són el nord del món sencer. Si els fas realitat, hauràs d'anar al sud.

És curiós pensar en la quantitat de coses que fem sense saber per què les fem. Un amic meu, l'Eder, va escriure un relat breu que parlava dels «tres segons que aguantem mirant el sol». És cert, encara que ningú no t'ha dit que no es pot mirar més de tres segons el sol, tu saps que és veritat i no hi fas. És curiós, el sol sempre és allà dalt, ens observa, ens escalfa i, per contra, que poc que li aguantem la mirada. Sense cap mena de dubte, és el gran groc. El sentim, el notem, sabem que és allà però no l'hem de mirar gaire.

—¿Es usted extranjero? —le preguntó la mujer, como si eso tuviera mucha importancia. Equis se fas- tidió. —Sólo en algunos países —le contestó— y posiblemente no lo seré durante toda la vida. Ella lo miró con cierta sorpresa. —No nací extranjero —le informó—. Es una condición que he adquirido con el tiempo y no por voluntad propia. Usted misma podría llegar a serlo, si se lo pro-pusiera, aunque no se lo aconsejo. Por lo menos, no de una manera definitiva.
