Chain Acquired

Famous quotes containing the words chain and/or acquired:

    From Nature’s chain whatever link you strike,
    Tenth or ten thousandth, breaks the chain alike.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Hardly a man in the world has an opinion upon morals, politics or religion which he got otherwise than through his associations and sympathies. Broadly speaking, there are none but corn-pone opinions. And broadly speaking, Corn-Pone stands for Self- Approval. Self-approval is acquired mainly from the approval of other people. The result is Conformity.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
