Y a-t-il plus belle parodie de l'éthique de la valeur que de se soumettre avec toute l'intransigeance de la vertu aux données du hasard ou à l'absurdité d'une règle?
I had to agonize over my selection since our music is so rich and all the above plus many others have contributed.
I made a penny for each paper delivered every day, plus 2 cents for Sunday papers. I had 120 customers. For a 10-year-old kid in the 1940s, that was a lot of money.
It hurts every day when you practice hard. Plus, when this decathlon is over, I got the rest of my life to recuperate. Who cares how bad it hurts?
I just hate sitting and writing - I had to do that in school. Plus, I have terrible handwriting.
What are the enabling conditions that make human beings flourish? How do we get from zero to plus five?
La raison du plus fort est toujours la meilleure. The reason of the strongest is always the best.
I was always a good student. I wasn't the A-plus student, but I studied really hard, and I probably had a 3. 2. I always wished that I had the capacity to get straight A's, but I didn't. I didn't beat myself up about it, but I really studied hard for my grades.
The painter needs all the talent of the poet, plus hand-eye coordination.
Jesus plus nothing equals everything; everything minus Jesus equals nothing.
Achievement is talent plus preparation
I show up on the injury report as much as the statsheet, but if I’m healthy, I’m going to be a late-round steal in most leagues. Last year I had more than 1,000 yards on the ground despite my injuries, and I had six rushing touchdowns despite Andre Brown vulturing my goal line duties around mid-season. Now I’m in Indianapolis, and my new offensive coordinator is implementing a West Coast offense that should get me plenty of carries and a few catches each game. Plus, I’ll be the goal line guy. If I’m not wearing a boot.
Remember, there is no situation so completely hopeless that something constructive cannot be done about it. When faced with a minus, ask yourself what you can do to make it a plus. A person practicing this attitude will extract undreamed-of outcomes from the most unpromising situations. Realize that there are no hopeless situations; there are only people who take hopeless attitudes.
Goals aren't enough. You need goals plus deadlines: goals big enough to get excited about and deadline to make you run. One isn't much good without the other, but together they can be tremendous.
You may be sure that the Americans will commit all the stupidities they can think of, plus some that are beyond imagination.
Christianity is Christ plus nothing!
Don't give [the audience] four; give them two plus two.
Plus, I was about to spend six weeks with Christian Ozera. He was sarcastic, difficult, and made jokes about everything. Actually, he was a lot like me. It was going to be a long six weeks.
The Earth is warming but physical evidence from around the world tells us that human-emitted carbon dioxide has played only a minor role in it. Instead, the mild warming seems to be part of a natural 1,500-year climate cycle (plus or minus 500 years) that goes back at least one million years.
I think ingenuity is part of our DNA. That plus curiosity, plus the willingness to commit.
