Text Quotes

I've not even learned how to say I like you without frightening people away  (Acceptable Quotes) The whole Valentine's thing is fine, but you don't back it up right next to the biggest gift-giving holiday of the year. Unbelievable.

In 2003, all he has said is that he doesn’t remember the interview  (Acceptable Quotes) In the seventies we had to make it acceptable for people to accept girls and women as athletes. We had to make it okay for them to be active. Those were much scarier times for females in sports  (Acceptable Quotes) The police cannot protect the citizen at this stage of our development, and they cannot even protect themselves in many cases. It is up to the private citizen to protect himself and his family, and this is not only acceptable, but mandatory  (Acceptable Quotes) It is not acceptable that we continue to see thousands of acres burn because of forest fires, because of poor management on our forests, big kill, and we have these catastrophic situations take place when we are not able to take action  (Acceptable Quotes) Maybe something that’s acceptable in your teens or 20s is unacceptable in your 30s or 40s  (Acceptable Quotes) We made a deal that was acceptable to us. We got paid very handsomely for our final season  (Acceptable Quotes) I am not opposed to the limited use of polygraphs in a case where a person is suspected of wrongdoing. But widespread use of the polygraph as a screening tool goes far beyond what is acceptable  (Acceptable Quotes) A collective tyrant, spread over the length and breadth of the land, is no more acceptable than a single tyrant ensconced on his throne  (Acceptable Quotes) It’s absolutely not acceptable for people to argue that, if we are going to do anything about climate change at all, well, the responsibility lies solely with the individual  (Acceptable Quotes) The music is the main thing and it’s just as easy to write acceptable words  (Acceptable Quotes) It has become more acceptable to describe yourself as a conservative, but not everyone who uses that term about themselves really is truly conservative  (Acceptable Quotes) In a way, the sense of quality has improved, the status symbol of the small things is gone, and it is acceptable to use stainless steel, even if the neighbour uses silver  (Acceptable Quotes) A poet or prose narrator usually looks back on what he has achieved against a backdrop of the years that have passed, generally finding that some of these achievements are acceptable, while others are less so  (Acceptable Quotes) If you call it a riot, it sounds like it was just a bunch of crazy people who went out and did bad things for no reason. I maintain it was somewhat understandable, if not acceptable. So I call it a rebellion  (Acceptable Quotes) To progress in life you must give up the things you do not like. Give up doing the things that you do not like to do. You must find the things that you do like. The things that are acceptable to your mind  (Acceptable Quotes) There are few things more disturbing than to find, in somebody we detest, a moral quality which seems to us demonstrably superior to anything we ourselves possess.

Sainthood is acceptable only in saints  (Acceptable Quotes) I would like to make a building as intellectually driven as it is sculptural and as positive as it would be acceptable to hope  (Acceptable Quotes) On radio and television, magazines and the movies, you can’t tell what you’re going to get.

If you can avoid those things, pretty much all behaviour is acceptable  (Acceptable Quotes) If it is perfectly acceptable for a widow to disfigure herself or commit suicide to save face for her husband’s family, why should a mother not be moved to extreme action by the loss of a child or children? We are their caretakers. We love them. We nurse them when they are sick... But no woman should live longer than her children. It is against the law of nature. If she does, why wouldn’t she wish to leap from a cliff, hang from a branch, or swallow lye?  (Acceptable Quotes) The story of terrorism is written by the state and it is therefore highly instructive… compared with terrorism, everything else must be acceptable, or in any case more rational and democratic  (Acceptable Quotes) Bookish people, who are often maladroit people, persist in thinking they can master any subtlety so long as it’s been shaped into acceptable expository prose  (Acceptable Quotes) ... in practice the standard for what constitutes rape is set not at the level of women’s experience of violation but just above the level of coercion acceptable to men  (Acceptable Quotes)
