My delegation is confident that, under your guidance and with your diplomatic acumen, it will be able to make considerable progress and achieve the same successful results.

Your election does honour both to the entire African continent and to our sister country, Côte d apos Ivoire, and is also a well deserved tribute to your excellent reputation.

And if you actually take a normal life span which most of you want to live, of 80 years, but you freeze yourself down for 50 years and then wake up, you're talking about being 80 years old in the year 4711.

I believe, in that regard, that, with your expertise and experience, Sir, you can come up with and offer us a magic formula to resolve the issue.

I am convinced that his experience and his comprehensive knowledge of the workings of the Organization, together with his personal qualities, will be the best possible guarantee for the success of this session and the completion of its work with the results we all hope for.

Whatever thing you have been given is the enjoyment of the present life and its adornment and what is with God is better and more enduring .

And whatsoever ye are vouchsafed is an enjoyment of the life of the world and an adornment thereof and that which is with Allah is better and more lasting . Will ye not therefore reflect ?

And whatever you have been given is an enjoyment of the life of ( this ) world and its adornment , and that ( Hereafter ) which is with Allah is better and will remain forever . Have you then no sense ?

Whatever you ( people ) have been given are only the means for enjoyment and beauty of the worldly life , but the means of enjoyment ( which you will receive from God ) in the life to come will be better and everlasting . Will you then not take heed ?

And whatever things you have been given are only a provision of this world 's life and its adornment , and whatever is with Allah is better and more lasting do you not then understand ?

Whatever you are given in this life is nothing but a temporary provision of this life and its glitter what God has is better and more lasting . Will you not then understand ?
