“The more it (vaccination) is supported by public authorities, the more will its dangers and disadvantages be concealed or denied.”
M. Beddow Bayly

G.K. Chesterton
“I think the oddest thing about the advanced people is that while they are always talking of things as problems, they have hardly any notion of what a real problem is. A real problem only occurs when there are admittedly disadvantages in all courses that can be pursued. If it is discovered just before a fashionable wedding that the Bishop is locked up in the coal-cellar, that is not a problem. It is obvious to anyone but an extreme anti-clerical or practical joker that the Bishop must be let out of the coal-cellar. But suppose the Bishop has been locked up in the wine-cellar, and from the obscure noises, sounds as of song and dance, etc., it is guessed that he has indiscreetly tested the vintages round him; then indeed we may properly say that there has arisen a problem; for upon the one hand, it is awkward to keep the wedding waiting, while, upon the other, any hasty opening of the door might mean an episcopal rush and scenes of the most unforeseen description.”
G.K. Chesterton

Penelope Lively
“I'm afraid,' wrote someone on a school report, 'that Claudia's intelligence may well prove a stumbling-block unless she learns how to control her enthusiasms and channel her talents.' Of course, intelligence is always a disadvantage. Parental hearts should sink at the first signs of it.”
Penelope Lively, Moon Tiger

“Kasoro za Uzi zilizofanya zisitumiwe tena na kikosi cha usalama cha rais wa Marekani ni kutokuwa na shabaha imara katika umbali mfupi (hutawanya risasi na huleta madhara makubwa katika umbali mfupi hivyo kuweza kudhuru hata watu wasiokuwa na hatia) na kutokuwa na uwezo wa kutoboa kinga ya risasi dhidi ya magaidi wanaotumia mavazi ya kuzuia risasi, wanaotishia usalama wa rais wa Marekani. Gaidi mwenye mavazi ya kuzuia risasi aliweza kumdhuru rais kwa maana ya USSS kushindwa kumdhibiti. Badala yake, sasa USSS wanatumia FNP90 – zenye uwezo wa kutoboa kinga ya risasi, na ambazo hazileti madhara makubwa katika umbali mfupi na katika umbali mrefu. Bunduki hizi, zenye uwezo wa kubeba risasi 100 katika chemba zake mbili za Kampuni ya Beta ('Century Magazines'), zilitumiwa na magaidi wa Kolonia Santita dhidi ya Vijana wa Tume na dhidi ya polisi wa Tume ya Dunia ya Kudhibiti Madawa ya Kulevya.”

“When you confront, it yields more benefits than disadvantages.”

Deyth Banger
“I'm sure that the book is incrediable, phenomenal and so on and so on going in positive direction... But the film wasn't made well (I'm talking about NeedFul Things by Stephen King), the effects weren't good, some scenes were missed, for example I'm very curiouis how does the guy kills his wife with the harmer... The scene reminds me for Shining, but Unfortunately in the Shining there were more possibilities to be saw this scene, than in this film... If some disadvantages will be fixed, then I'm sure that the film will be pretty interesting, however to don't forget about the quality!”

“And I'd add that every good thing has its disadvantages, and the disadvantage of love is precisely that it leaves room for nothing else, not even the prudence of ferrets.”
Angélica Gorodischer, Kalpa Imperial: The Greatest Empire That Never Was

Louisa Morgan
“You could be a titled lady. You won't have to do a jot of work your whole life!"
"Not a jot of work?" She bit the words out, her temper frayed to a thread. "You mean, except breed?”
Louisa Morgan, The Age of Witches
