«No one who achieves success does so without acknowledging the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude.»

«A happy marriage perhaps represents the ideal of human relationship / a setting in which each partner, while acknowledging the need of the other, feels free to be what he or she by nature is: a relationship in which instinct as well as intellect can find expression; in which giving and taking are equal; in which each accepts the other, and I confronts Thou.»

«Let's choose today to quench our thirst for the ''good life'' we thinks others lead by acknowledging the good that already exists in our lives. We can then offer the universe the gift of our grateful hearts.»

«Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness; / In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; / But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour; / To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.»

«And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, / In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; / And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.»

«I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, / Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; / That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.»

«We must begin by acknowledging that there is a complete absence of two things in Indian Society. One of these is equality.

«SATYR, n. One of the few characters of the Grecian mythology accorded recognition in the Hebrew. (Leviticus, xvii, 7.) The satyr was at first a member of the dissolute community acknowledging a loose allegiance with Dionysius, but underwent many transformations and improvements. Not infrequently he is confounded with the faun, a later and decenter creation of the Romans, who was less like a man and more like a goat.»

«INTIMACY, n. A relation into which fools are providentially drawn for their mutual destruction.Two Seidlitz powders, one in blue And one in white, together drew And having each a pleasant sense Of t'other powder's excellence, Forsook their jackets for the snug Enjoyment of a common mug. So close their intimacy grew One paper would have held the two. To confidences straight they fell, Less anxious each to hear than tell; Then each remorsefully confessed To all the virtues he possessed, Acknowledging he had them in So high degree it was a sin. The more they said, the more they felt Their spirits with emotion melt, Till tears of sentiment expressed Their feelings. Then they effervesced! So Nature executes her feats Of wrath on friends and sympathetes The good old rule who don't apply, That you are you and I am I.»

«A rule of thinking which would absolutely prevent me from acknowledging certain kinds of truth if those . . . truths were really there, would be an irrational rule.»
