Famous quotes containing the words uniform, prudent and/or act:

    An accent mark, perhaps, instead of a whole western accent—a point of punctuation rather than a uniform twang. That is how it should be worn: as a quiet point of character reference, an apt phrase of sartorial allusion—macho, sotto voce.
    Phil Patton (b. 1953)

    House and wealth are inherited from parents, but a prudent wife is from the LORD.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 19:14.

    To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any other station or capacity in social life.
    Sarah Ellis (1812–1872)
