As in the fi rst edition, care has been taken not to confuse idiomatic sayings with true proverbs and to include details of variant forms by which proverbs might be known to different readers. Existing entries have also been updated to include modern variants, e.g., the email of the species is more deadly than the mail, as a variant of the female of the species is deadlier than the male; and the geek shall inherit the earth, as a variant of the meek shall inherit the earth. The indexes have been similarly expanded. Boxes In addition, this text of this new edition has been embellished with boxes containing selections of interesting proverbs from a number of other languages and cultures. The aim of these is to provide a glimpse of other proverbial traditions. Many of these examples are foreign-language equivalents of familiar English sayings, while others are unique to their particular cultural background. Further boxes group proverbs that are related through their biblical or literary origins. Most of the prov- erbs included in the boxes are not covered elsewhere in the main text. vii i-xii_DictProverbsFM_(FOF).indd vii 1/29/07 3:23:27 PM i-xii_DictProverbsFM_(FOF).indd viii 1/29/07 3:23:27 PM In t r o d u c ti o n A proverb is a saying, usually short, that expresses a general truth about life. Proverbs give advice, make an observation, or present a teaching in a succinct and memorable way. This dictionary covers the main English-language proverbs that are widely recognized today. We use proverbs or allude to them quite often in everyday speech: Better safe than sorry; The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence; If at fi rst you don’t suc- ceed, try, try again; Let sleeping dogs lie; A trouble shared is a trouble halved. Arrangement of proverbs In this dictionary the proverbs are listed by strict letter-by-letter alphabetical order of the proverb, excluding only at the beginning of a proverb, A, An, and The: big fi sh eat little fi sh the bigger they are, the harder they fall a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush a bird never fl ew on one wing too much of a good thing is worse than none at all toot your own horn lest the same be never tooted to the pure all things are pure Proverbs can also be found using the keyword index, which lists all the main nouns, adjectives, and verbs. Defi nitions After the proverb itself comes an explanation of the meaning of the proverb: pride goes before a fall ix i-xii_DictProverbsFM_(FOF).indd ix 1/29/07 3:23:27 PM Introduction Arrogance and overconfi dence often lead to humiliation or disaster; often used as a warning . uneasy lies the head that wears a crown Those in power are weighed down by responsibilities, feelings of insecurity, or fears of losing their position and can never rest easy . Examples Examples have been chosen to demonstrate the use of a proverb. They come from English literature or have been specially compiled for this text: boys will be boys Boys must be forgiven for their bad or boisterous behavior; also used ironically when grown men behave in an irresponsible or childish manner: “Aunt Sally was a good deal uneasy; but Uncle Silas he said there warn’t no occasion to be—boys will be boys, he said, and you’ll see this one turn up in the morning all sound and right” (Mark Twain, Huckleberry Finn, 1884). a good name is sooner lost than won It takes a lot of time and effort to earn a good name for yourself, but you can lose it in an instant with a single foolish act: Think carefully before you get involved in anything that is not strictly legal—remember that a good name is sooner lost than won. Origins Many proverbs have been in use for many years: every man is his own worst enemy . The proverb was fi rst recorded in Thomas Browne’s Religio Medici (1643). every man is the architect of his own fortune . The proverb is attributed to the Roman politician Appius Claudius Caecus, who held the post of censor from 312 b.c. to 308 b.c. Sometimes, proverbs are quotations: the leopard can’t change its spots . The proverb is of biblical origin: “Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots?” (Jeremiah 13:23). x i-xii_DictProverbsFM_(FOF).indd x 1/29/07 3:23:27 PM Introduction a rose by any other name would smell as sweet . The proverb comes from Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet (2:2): “What’s in a name? that which we call a rose/By any other name would smell as sweet.” Some proverbs have come into use in contemporary times. These include: garbage in, garbage out . First recorded in 1964, the proverb originally referred to computer input and output, and is still used in that context, often in the form of the acronym GIGO. if it ain’t broke, don’t fi x it . The proverb was fi rst recorded in 1977, popularized by Bert Lance, director of the Offi ce of Management and Budget in President Jimmy Carter’s administration. it takes a village to raise a child . Of African origin, the proverb was popularized by Hillary Clinton, wife of President Bill Clinton, in the mid-1990s. The “fi rst recorded” date given is not the date of origin—most proverbs origi- nated in spoken language, and this is simply the fi rst known written record of the proverb: fi rst impressions are the most lasting . The proverb was fi rst recorded in William Congreve’s play The Way of the World (1700) in the form “There is a great deal in the fi rst impression.” Where an early form of a proverb or other quotation is taken from a named source, the spellings of the original have been retained; in other cases spellings have been modernized for the convenience of the user: nature abhors a vacuum . Of ancient origin, the proverb was fi rst recorded in English in 1551, in Thomas Cranmer’s Answer to Gardiner: “Naturall reason abhorreth vacuum.” a cat has nine lives . The proverb was fi rst recorded in 1546 in the form “A woman has nine lives like a cat.” Variants and use of proverbs Variants on the proverb are given after the main entry: a word to the wise is suffi cient xi i-xii_DictProverbsFM_(FOF).indd xi 1/29/07 3:23:28 PM Introduction Variant of this proverb: a word is enough to the wise.

  • The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960S
    The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960s By Zachary Saltz University of Kansas, Copyright 2011 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. John Tibbetts ________________________________ Dr. Michael Baskett ________________________________ Dr. Chuck Berg Date Defended: 19 April 2011 ii The Thesis Committee for Zachary Saltz certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960s ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. John Tibbetts Date approved: 19 April 2011 iii ABSTRACT The Green Sheet was a bulletin created by the Film Estimate Board of National Organizations, and featured the composite movie ratings of its ten member organizations, largely Protestant and represented by women. Between 1933 and 1969, the Green Sheet was offered as a service to civic, educational, and religious centers informing patrons which motion pictures contained potentially offensive and prurient content for younger viewers and families. When the Motion Picture Association of America began underwriting its costs of publication, the Green Sheet was used as a bartering device by the film industry to root out municipal censorship boards and legislative bills mandating state classification measures. The Green Sheet underscored tensions between film industry executives such as Eric Johnston and Jack Valenti, movie theater owners, politicians, and patrons demanding more integrity in monitoring changing film content in the rapidly progressive era of the 1960s. Using a system of symbolic advisory ratings, the Green Sheet set an early precedent for the age-based types of ratings the motion picture industry would adopt in its own rating system of 1968.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Articles & Chapters by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@NYLS. THE LEGAL CULTURE OF THE FORMATIVE PERIOD IN SHERMAN ACT JURISPRUDENCE* WILLIAM P. LAPIANA** The history of the formative era of antitrust jurisprudence has become the subject of extensive scholarly inquiry. Starting with Robert Bork's attempt to attribute specific economic motives to those who enacted the law,' examinations of the course of events leading up to the creation of the rule of reason enunciated in Standard Oil Co. v. United States2 have unearthed relationships between contemporary economic and political theory and the drafting and enforcement of the Sherman Act.3 This article attempts to supplement these efforts by placing the language of the major Supreme Court opinions interpreting the Sherman Act in a context of thought about the nature of law. It is an attempt to begin to probe the legal culture of the period, but, of course, it is only an attempt. A full and complete picture of American legal culture at the turn of the century is yet to be written.
