Deputies Quotes - Page 3

• The distribution of tasks among the various employees follows a simple rule, which is that the duty of the members of each category is to do as much work as they possibly can, so that only a small part of that work need be passed to the category above. This means that the clerks are obliged to work without cease from morning to night, whereas the senior clerks do so only now and then, the deputies very rarely, and the Registrar almost never.

• And so it was settled. Sam Gamgee married Rose Cotton in the spring of 1420 (which was also famous for its weddings), and they came and lived at Bag End. And if Sam thought himself lucky, Frodo knew that he was more lucky himself; for there was not a hobbit in the Shire that was looked after with such care. When the labours or repair had all been planned and set going he took to a quiet life, writing a good deal and going through all his notes. He resigned the office of Deputy Mayor at the Free Fair that Midsummer, and dear old Will Whitfoot had another seven years of presiding at Banquets.

• Sólo había visto una pistola una vez, una más pequeña en la cadera de aquel viejo ayudante del sheriff, una pistola que siempre pensó que era más bien para aparentar. Se metió un puñado de balas mortíferas en el bolsillo, pensando en cómo cada una de ellas podía acabar con una vida individual, y comprendiendo por qué esas cosas estaban prohibidas. Matar a un hombre debería ser más difícil que agitar una tubería en su dirección. Debería llevar el tiempo suficiente para que la conciencia se interpusiera en el camino.

• And if a diversion is needed, why not arrest a general? Arthur Dillon is a friend of eminent deputies, a contender for the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Northern Front; he has proved himself at Valmy and in a halfdozen actions since. In the National Assembly he was a liberal; now he is a republican. Isn't it then logical that he should be thrown into gaol, July 1, on suspicion of passing military secrets to the enemy?

• En la vida académica, las ideas falsas son simplemente falsas y las inútiles pueden ser divertidas para jugar. En la vida política, las ideas falsas pueden arruinar la vida de millones de personas y las inútiles pueden malgastar recursos preciosos. La responsabilidad de un intelectual con sus ideas es seguir sus consecuencias dondequiera que lleven. La responsabilidad de un político es dominar esas consecuencias y evitar que hagan daño. Michael Ignatieff, antiguo profesor de Harvard y colaborador de la revista, es miembro del Parlamento de Canadá y líder adjunto del Partido Liberal.

• By the time the Deputy Minister presents a matter for decision to cabinet, he or she tends to present three options: ' the unacceptable', 'the politically courageous', and 'the bureaucrat-preferred' options. As such, it is usually best to get down into the department to the person doing the first drafts of any policy.

• [Todo acto de una autoridad delegada, contrario al tenor de la comisión en virtud de la cual se ejerce, es nulo. Por lo tanto, ningún acto legislativo contrario a la Constitución puede ser válido. Negar esto sería afirmar que el delegado es superior a su superior; que el siervo está por encima de su amo; que los representantes del pueblo son superiores al pueblo mismo; que los hombres que actúan en virtud de poderes pueden hacer no sólo lo que sus poderes no autorizan, sino lo que éstos prohíben.

• Angels are God's messengers whose chief business is to carry out his orders in the world. He has given them an ambassadorial charge. He has designated and empowered them as holy deputies to perform works of righteousness. In this way they assist him as their creator while he sovereignly controls the universe. So he has given them the capacity to bring holy enterprises to a successful conclusion.
