Demeanor Quotes - Page 2

• There is a mean streak to authentic self-control. Underneath what seems to be the placid demeanor of those who are not ruled by their desires is the heart of a warrior. Self control is not for the timid. When we want to grow in it, not only do we nurture an exuberance for Jesus Christ, we also demand of ourselves a hatred for sin.

  Edward T Welch

  Jesus, Heart, Mean

• El hombre más noble destaca las buenas cualidades de los demás y no acentúa las malas. El inferior hace lo contrario. . . . El hombre más noble presta especial atención a nueve puntos. Se preocupa de ver con claridad, de oír con claridad, de ser amable en su mirada, respetuoso en su comportamiento, concienzudo en su discurso, serio en sus asuntos. Cuando duda, tiene cuidado de preguntar; cuando se enfada, piensa en las consecuencias; cuando se le ofrece una oportunidad de ganar, sólo piensa en su deber.

  Confucius

• Como sabes, el shibumi tiene que ver con el gran refinamiento que subyace a las apariencias comunes. Es una afirmación tan correcta que no tiene que ser atrevida, tan conmovedora que no tiene que ser bonita, tan verdadera que no tiene que ser real. Shibumi es comprensión, más que conocimiento. Silencio elocuente. En el comportamiento, es modestia sin pudor. En el arte, donde el espíritu de shibumi adopta la forma de sabi, es simplicidad elegante, brevedad articulada. En filosofía, donde el shibumi emerge como wabi, es tranquilidad espiritual que no es pasiva; es ser sin la angustia del devenir.

• What all this posturing and fake glamor results in is a vast detachment and cynicism on the part of the artists.

• When a monarchy gradually transforms itself into a republic, the executive power there preserves titles, honors, respect, and even money long after it has lost the reality of power. The English, having cut off the head of one of their kings and chased another off the throne, still go on their knees to address the successors of those princes. On the other hand, when a republic falls under one man's yoke, the ruler's demeanor remains simple, unaffected, and modest, as if he had not already been raised above everybody.

Revenge is always sweeter if your team wins the game.
