Famous quotes containing the word acquired:

    The actor can be compared to the soldier. The former dazzled by his triumphs, sighs continually for the struggles of stage- life; the latter filled with the glory he has acquired on the battlefield, cannot resign himself to peace.
    Adelaide Ristori (1822–1906)

    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)

    Lloyd: That bitter cynicism of yours is something you’ve acquired since you left Radcliffe.
    Karen: That cynicism you refer to I acquired the day I discovered I was different from little boys.
    Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)
