“Promising is the very air o' th' time; it opens the eyes of expectation. Performance is ever duller for his act; and, but in the plainer and simpler kind of people, the deed of saying is quite out of use. To promise is most courtly and fashionable; performance is a kind of will or testament which argues a great sickness in his judgment that makes it.” PeopleKindUseEyeAirPromiseJudgmentExpectationsPerformancesDeedsArguingSicknessTestamentFashionable Book:Tragedies.

“Put forth thy leaf, thou lofty plane, East wind and frost are safely gone; With zephyr mild and balmy rain The summer comes serenely on; Earth, air, and sun and skies combine To promise all that's kind and fair: But thou, O human heart of mine, Be still, contain thyself, and bear.” HumansHeartKindStillsEarthSunGoneAirSkyMinesWindBearsPromiseSummerRainFairsEastPlanesLeafsHuman HeartThyselfLoftyFrostZephyr Book:Poems: With a Memoir Source: Poems: With a Memoir
“Love would never be a promise of a rose garden unless it is showered with light of faith, water of sincerity and air of passion. Sometimes we make love with our eyes. Sometimes we make love with our hands. Sometimes we make love with our bodies. Always we make love with our hearts. If I could reach up and hold a star for every time you've made me smile, the entire evening sky would be in the palm of my hand. To love another person is to see the face of God.” IfsHeartPersonsMadeSometimesBodyHandsLightWould BeEyeFacesPassionStarsWaterAirSkyPromiseGardenRoseEveningIf I CouldSincerityMaking LovePalmsRose GardenEvening Sky Author:Victor Hugo
“North Korea is making several demands in exchange for giving up their nuclear program, including a promise from America not to attack them. Which is a little strange because for us to attack them we would have to have slam dunk proof that they have weapons of mass destruction. I mean, for Gods sakes people, we're not maniacs. It would have to be an air-tight case. We wouldn't just come in there and start bombing you.” PeopleGivingMeanLittlesAmericaCasesAirStrangePromiseDemandGiving UpWeaponsMassProgramDestructionIncludingSakeProofNuclearKoreaNorth KoreaWeapons Of Mass DestructionMass DestructionBombingSlamManiacsSlam Dunk Author:Jon Stewart
