A humbug!!
Commenting on the presidential nomination of James K. Polk:
IMPOSTOR n. A rival aspirant to public honors.
They're not posing as being Jesus Christ all the time.
The man wannabe actually...a wannabe. David Haye's a wannabe.
A man of knowing attains to a sense of humour. Let this always be remembered. If you see someone who has no sense of humour, know well that that man has not known at all. If you come across a serious man, then you can be certain that he is a pretender. Knowing brings sincerity but all seriousness disappears. Knowing brings a playfulness; knowing brings a sense of humour. The sense of humour is a must.
I have been able to sniff out a phony.
I wasn't into Tolkien at school really. But the story is timeless, the themes that it touches on are contained in cultures all around the world. The innocent on a quest, the pretender, an inanimate object that holds evil - it's really strange that these themes are there in so many different countries' folklore.
Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken.
Say a prayer for the pretender, who started out so young and strong only to surrender.
Crown Prince Rupprecht, the heir to the throne of Bavaria who commanded the army group facing the British at the Somme, was the senior direct lineal heir of James Stuart, the Old Pretender of 1715. Had there been any Jacobites left in Britain in 1916, they would have had to regard this south German prince as their rightful king.
I came all this way for a reason. Today is the day of salvation. Trust Jesus to save you. Then be sincere as God knows a pretender.
I have not looked at any of the 'Pretender' Web sites. I'm scared of the Internet.
Out into the cool of the evening strolls the pretender. He knows that all his hopes and dreams begin and end there.
Quack: A boastful pretender to arts which he does not understand. A vain boastful pretender to physick; An artful, tricking practitioner in physick.
