    Quotes and sayings containing the term weak

    The Attorney General recuses Jeff Sessions, and I don't fire Jeff Sessions, no obstruction, that's the other thing -- if you use your rights, if you use your power, if you use Article 2, it's called obstruction, but only for Melania Trump, for nobody else. So the attorney general is weak and ineffective and he doesn't do what he should have done.

    – Melania Trump

    The issue I'm concerned about is President Trump has a very low re-elect number, I think in the 30s, high 30s, low 40s, so the chance of President Trump losing a general election are pretty good. I'm not saying President Trump couldn't win, but President Trump's pretty weak in the general election.

    – Larry Hogan

    Did somebody tell ISIS, 'Look, we're going to treat your guys well. Will you please do us a favor and treat our guys well?' They don't do that. We're not playing by -- we are playing by rules, but they have no rules. It's very hard to win when that's the case, i think we've become very weak and ineffective. I think that's why we're not beating ISIS. It's that mentality.

    – Donald Trump

    Character is the foundation stone upon which one must build to win respect. Just as no worthy building can be erected on a weak foundation, so no lasting reputation worthy of respect can be built on a weak character.

    – R. C. Samsel

    On top of good corporate earnings announcements, the weak yen helped support market sentiment.

    – Takuya Takahashi

    The last two didn't have what it takes to get their point across --- McCain and Romney. We need somebody that's going to do what he says, i don't want another weak candidate.

    – Bill Mackie

    The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

    – Mahatma Gandhi

    It little profits that an idle king,By this still hearth, among these barren crags,Matchd with an aged wife, I mete and doleUnequal laws unto a savage race,That hoard, and sleep, and feed, and know not me. I cannot rest from travel; I will drinkLife to the lees. All times I have enjoydGreatly, have sufferd greatly, both with thoseThat loved me, and alone; on shore, and whenThro scudding drifts the rainy HyadesVext the dim sea. I am become a name;For always roaming with a hungry heartMuch have I seen and known,cities of menAnd manners, climates, councils, governments,Myself not least, but honord of them all,And drunk delight of battle with my peers,Far on the ringing plains of windy Troy. I am a part of all that I have met;Yet all experience is an arch wherethroGleams that untravelld world whose margin fadesFor ever and for ever when I move. How dull it is to pause, to make an end,To rust unburnishd, not to shine in use!As tho to breathe were life! Life piled on lifeWere all too little, and of one to meLittle remains; but every hour is savedFrom that eternal silence, something more,A bringer of new things; and vile it wereFor some three suns to store and hoard myself,And this gray spirit yearning in desireTo follow knowledge like a sinking star,Beyond the utmost bound of human thought. It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,And see the great Achilles, whom we knew. Tho much is taken, much abides; and thoWe are not now that strength which in old daysMoved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,One equal temper of heroic hearts,Made weak by time and fate, but strong in willTo strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    – Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson
