Consequently it is not to them, but only to those nobler and more highly endowed natures, those men who really think and observe things round them, and are the exceptions in the human race, that the following lines are applicable: "Os homini sublime dedit coelumque tueri Jussitt et erectos ad sidera tollere vultus." Why is "common" an expression of contempt?
Cf. also Caes. Defendere, to defend him, when attacked; tueri, to protect him at all times. Praecipuum sacramentum. Their most sacred duty, Guen. and K.; or the chief part of their oath, Gr. Clarescunt tuentur. So Ritter after the best MSS. Al. clarescant tueantur, or tueare. Non nisi. In Cic. usually separated by a word or a clause. In T. generally brought together. Exigunt. They expect.
Everything about them cries out; in terram prona! It is not to them, it is only to the nobler and more highly endowed natures men who really think and look about them in the world, and form exceptional specimens of humanity that the next lines are applicable; Os homini sublime dedit coelumque tueri Jussit et erectos ad sidera tollere vultus.
The boys were all paraded; prizes were administered; each lad being in a new suit of clothes and magnificent dandies, I promise you, some of us were. Oh, the chubby cheeks, clean collars, glossy new raiment, beaming faces, glorious in youth fit tueri coelum bright with truth, and mirth, and honor!
Christianity released European humanity from its superficial and crude absorption in an ephemeral, uncertain, and hollow existence. ... coelumque tueri Jussit, et erectos ad sidera tollere vultus.

Opening her master's volume again, she read: Tædet coeli convexa tueri. A few minutes afterwards her father entered the chamber to tell her he had at last found the philosopher's stone, but, perceiving his daughter hanging by her girdle, he forbore to intrude upon her, and returned to his laboratory. It was time.
In Vico therefore we find the condemnation of pacifism, the assertion that right is actualized by bodily force, that without force, right is of no avail, and that therefore 'qui ab iniuriis se tueri non potest servus est." It is not difficult to discern the analogies between these affirmations and the fundamental views and the spirit of Fascism. Nor should we marvel at this similarity.
Poet with his note-book may repeat, "Suave etiam belli certamina magna tueri;" but the sentiment is hollow and savours of cuckoo. You can't tueri anything but a horrid row. He didn't say, "Suave etiam ingentem caliginem tueri per campos instructam." They managed better in the Middle Ages.
Quisquis amat vitam, sobriam, castamque tueri, Perpetuò esto illi casta Geneva domus: Quisquis amat vitani hanc bene vivere, virere et illam, Illi iterum fuerit casta Geneva domus. Illic iuvenies, quidquid, conducit utrique: Relligio hic sana est, aura, ager, atque lucus.
