"4 Kalki (talk · contributions) 00:01, 20 January 2011 (UTC) 3 Kalki 20:37, 22 January 2007 (UTC) with a wavering leans toward 4 or 2, because I cannot agree with some major interpretations or points that could be construed by the expression. I have upgraded my ranking to a four for this year, but only for a slightly extended quote of a slightly different translation:"
"4 Tamino 20:09, 17 January 2007 (UTC) A classic, and in a way appropriate given that it was his last public speech."

"4 because this is rather true. Character is something that you are born with, not learned from experience, nor trials, nor tribulations. Excellent. Zarbon 18:37, 22 April 2008 (UTC)"

"3 because this is a good example of bragging one's own accomplishments, and it is a good one at that. Zarbon 23:24, 24 April 2008 (UTC)"

"1 Kalki 23:10, 22 September 2009 (UTC) * 2 Kalki 17:08, 21 September 2007 (UTC) and would prefer "brick" to "bricks". I had originally ranked this higher, but it seems to be a common paraphrase of a statement by Suetonius, that "He could boast that he inherited it brick and left it marble" which suggests that though Augustus might have used such words, Seutonius is not necessarily quoting him."

"3 - I'd always seen this quote with "brick" rather than "bricks"; which one is the more accurate translation I don't know, but "brick" has the advantage of symmetry with "marble." InvisibleSun 18:27, 22 September 2006 (UTC)"

"3.5 When I ranked earlier, I didn't know that Huxley coined the term (as a-gnostic, referring to Gnostics of the first-century who were sure about everything). If this quote is used, mentioning that Huxley coined it would be useful. N6n 07:11, 17 September 2010 (UTC) * 2 N6n 16:03, 9 September 2010 (UTC) -->"
