Courage! What makes a King out of a slave? Courage! What makes the flag on the mast to wave? Courage! What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist, or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! What makes the Sphinx the Seventh Wonder? Courage! What makes the dawn come up like thunder? Courage! What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the ape in ape-ricot? What have they got that I ain’t got? (Courage) You can say that again!
The Wizard of Oz (1939)
Screenwriter(s): Noel Langley, Florence Ryerson, Edgar Allan Woolf
As citizens, can we counter sue the plaintiffs for the frivolous case, the wasted time, and the increased costs of the project due to the delay?
How much courage does it take to go along with the powerful monied interests?
I’m wondering who the moneyed interest are. While many opposed this project, many individuals spoke in favor of this project.
If you’re referring to developers, yes, many of them are wealthy. Powerful? It’s taken about 4 years to get to this point. That doesn’t speak to power.
All right, break it up! This battle is over. Both sides fought hard. Time to move on.
What Andy said.
What Jack Leader said.
Let’s get this project moving already.
Definitely move on.
Do you think they will file another lawsuit??
