Text Quotes
To read a book for the first time is to make an acquaintance with a new friend; to read it for a second time is to meet an old one  (Acquaintance Quotes) I know no place at which an Englishman may drop down suddenly among a pleasanter circle of acquaintance, or find himself with a more clever set of men, than he can do at Boston  (Acquaintance Quotes) Experience - the wisdom that enables us to recognise in an undesirable old acquaintance the folly that we have already embraced  (Acquaintance Quotes) The slightest acquaintance with history shows that powerful republics are the most warlike and unscrupulous of nations  (Acquaintance Quotes) Moderation is the inseparable companion of wisdom, but with it genius has not even a nodding acquaintance  (Acquaintance Quotes) A powerful attraction exists, therefore, to the promotion of a study and of duties of all others engrossing the time most completely, and which is less benefited than most others by any acquaintance with science  (Acquaintance Quotes) If there be no great love in the beginning, yet heaven may decrease it upon better acquaintance, when we are married and have more occasion to know one another: I hope, upon familiarity will grow more contempt  (Acquaintance Quotes) Experience has taught me that those who give their time to the absorbing claims of what is called society, not having leisure to keep up a large acquaintance with the organs of opinion, remain much more ignorant of the general state either of the public mind, or of the active and instructed part of it, than a recluse who reads the newspapers need be  (Acquaintance Quotes) An acquaintance with the muses, in the education of youth, contributes not a little to soften manners. It gives a delicate turn to the imagination and a polish to the mind  (Acquaintance Quotes) From my earliest acquaintance with the science of political economy, it has been evident to my mind that capital was the product of labor, and that therefore, in its best analysis there could be no natural conflict between capital and labor  (Acquaintance Quotes) There is so much of good in human nature that men grow to like each other upon better acquaintance, and this points to another way in which we may strive to promote the peace of the world  (Acquaintance Quotes) In such a case secrecy must be absolute to be effective, and although mere vague curiosity induced many persons of my intimate acquaintance to ask to be allowed to just go in and have a peep, I never admitted anyone  (Acquaintance Quotes) Probability is expectation founded upon partial knowledge. A perfect acquaintance with all the circumstances affecting the occurrence of an event would change expectation into certainty, and leave nether room nor demand for a theory of probabilities  (Acquaintance Quotes) For my part, I confess I seldom listen to the players: one has so much to do, in looking about and finding out one’s acquaintance, that, really, one has no time to mind the stage. One merely comes to meet one’s friends, and show that one’s alive  (Acquaintance Quotes) When a man looks across a street, sees a pretty girl, and waves at her, that’s not a rendezvous, that’s a passing acquaintance. When he walks across the street and nibbles on her ear, that’s a rendezvous!  (Acquaintance Quotes) Your law may be perfect, your knowledge of human affairs may be such as to enable you to apply it with wisdom and skill, and yet without individual acquaintance with men, their haunts and habits, the pursuit of the profession becomes difficult, slow, and expensive  (Acquaintance Quotes) Population, when unchecked, increases in a geometrical ratio. Subsistence increases only in an arithmetical ratio. A slight acquaintance with numbers will shew the immensity of the first power in comparison of the second  (Acquaintance Quotes) To have some account of my thoughts, manners, acquaintance and actions, when the hour arrives in which time is more nimble than memory, is the reason which induces me to keep a journal: a journal in which I must confess my every thought, must open my whole heart!  (Acquaintance Quotes) It’s very good for an idea to be commonplace. The important thing is that a new idea should develop out of what is already there so that it soon becomes an old acquaintance. Old acquaintances aren’t by any means always welcome, but at least one can’t be mistaken as to who or what they are  (Acquaintance Quotes) Hope is a pleasant acquaintance, but an unsafe friend, not the man for your banker, though he may do for a traveling companion  (Acquaintance Quotes) The nicest thing about quotes is that they give us a nodding acquaintance with the originator which is often socially impressive  (Acquaintance Quotes) Without an acquaintance with chemistry, the statesman must remain a stranger to the true vital interests of the state, to the means of its organic development and improvement;... The highest economic or material interests of a country, the increased and more profitable production of food for man and animals,... are most closely linked with the advancement and diffusion of the natural sciences, especially of chemistry  (Acquaintance Quotes) After an acquaintance of ten minutes many women will exchange confidences that a man would not reveal to a lifelong friend  (Acquaintance Quotes) An acquaintance of mine, a notary by profession, who, by perpetual writing, began first to complain of an excessive wariness of his whole right arm which could be removed by no medicines, and which was at last succeeded by a perfect palsy of the whole arm... He learned to write with his left hand, which was soon thereafter seized with the same disorder  (Acquaintance Quotes) Opportunistic relationships can hardly be kept constant. The acquaintance of honorable people, even at a distance, does not add flowers in times of warmth and does not change its leaves in times of cold: it continues unfading through the four seasons, becomes increasingly stable as it passes through ease and danger  (Acquaintance Quotes) U.S. soldiers, with whom I now have more than a passing acquaintance, joke that they track my movements in order to know where they will be deployed next  (Acquaintance Quotes) The social pressure from friend and acquaintance to collude, to not notice racism, can be quite powerful  (Acquaintance Quotes) Time was when all the parts of the subject were dissevered, when algebra, geometry, and arithmetic either lived apart or kept up cold relations of acquaintance confined to occasional calls upon one another; but that is now at an end; they are drawn together and are constantly becoming more and more intimately related and connected by a thousand fresh ties, and we may confidently look forward to a time when they shall form but one body with one soul  (Acquaintance Quotes) It is expedient to have acquaintance with those who have looked into the world, who know men, understand business, and can give you good intelligence and good advice when they are wanted  (Acquaintance Quotes) Like dogs who sniff each other when meeting, chess players have a ritual at first acquaintance: they sit down to play speed chess  (Acquaintance Quotes)
