Whoever is admitted or sought for, in company, upon any other account than that of his merit and manners, is never respected there, but only made use of.

These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.

The problem is that people don't see these diseases and think they no longer exist. These viruses and diseases are still circulating around the world and are just a plane ride away, and they will return if we don't keep our vaccination rates up.

All Michelle wanted was to see for herself if she could do it or not. And when it became evident that was too much to ask, Michelle was the first to say she had too much respect for the Olympics and for this country to go out there when she knew she couldn't. Here, it's a different sport and a little different situation. But I think you could plug in the same kind of comments with Jeff -- if it comes to that.
