• There was something I needed to say. “Sorry. About before.” Fang shot a sideways glance at me, his eyes dark and inscrutable, as always. He looked back out at the water. I didn’t expect any more acknowledgment than that. Fang never- “You almost gave me a heart attack,” he said quietly. “When I saw you, and all that blood . . .” He threw a small rock as hard as he could down the beach. “I’m sorry.” “Don’t do it again,” he said. I swallowed hard. “I won’t.” Something changed right then, but I didn’t know what.

  James Patterson

  Beach, Sorry, Heart

• But something occurred to me as I sped through that dirty shroud of fog, something Vonnegut has been trying to explain to the rest of us for most of his life. And that is this: Despair is a form of hope. It is an acknowledgment of the distance between ourselves and our appointed happiness. At certain moments, it is reason enough to live.

• Para que no olvidemos al menos un reconocimiento por encima del hombro al primer radical: de todas nuestras leyendas, mitología e historia (y quién sabe dónde acaba la mitología y dónde empieza la historia, o cuál es cuál), el primer radical conocido por el hombre que se rebeló contra lo establecido y lo hizo tan eficazmente que al menos ganó su propio reino: Lucifer.

• La educación feminista -el aula feminista- es y debe ser un lugar en el que exista un sentimiento de lucha, en el que haya un reconocimiento visible de la unión de la teoría y la práctica, en el que trabajemos juntos como profesores y estudiantes para superar el distanciamiento y la alienación que se han convertido en norma en la universidad contemporánea.

• Con respecto al reconocimiento público de las creencias religiosas, está totalmente claro por las prácticas históricas de nuestra nación que la Cláusula de Establecimiento permite este desprecio de los politeístas y los creyentes en deidades despreocupadas, del mismo modo que permite el desprecio de los ateos devotos.

• When you look back on a lifetime and think of what has been given to the world by your presence, your fugitive presence, inevitably you think of your art, whatever it may be, as the gift you have made to the world in acknowledgment of the gift you have been given, which is the life itself... That work is not an expression of the desire for praise or recognition, or prizes, but the deepest manifestation of your gratitiude for the gift of life.

• I would know any man as a Christian, would rejoice to know any man as a Christian, whom Jesus would recognize as a Christian; and Jesus Christ, I am sure, in these old days recognized His followers even if they came after Him with the blindest sight, with the most imperfect recognition and acknowledgment of what He was and of what He could do.

  Phillips Brooks

• ...the cross saves completely, or not at all. Our faith does not divide the work of salvation between itself and the cross. It is the acknowledgment that the cross alone saves, and that it saves alone. Faith adds nothing to the cross, nor to its healing virtue.

• La fe es el reconocimiento de la ausencia total de toda bondad en nosotros, y el reconocimiento de la cruz como sustituto de toda carencia por nuestra parte. La fe salva, porque posee la completa salvación de otro, y no porque contribuya en nada a esa salvación.

• La alabanza justa es sólo una deuda, pero la adulación es un regalo. El reconocimiento de aquellas virtudes por las que la conciencia nos felicita es un tributo que podemos exigir en cualquier momento con confianza; pero la celebración de aquellas que sólo fingimos, o deseamos sin ningún esfuerzo vigoroso para alcanzarlas, es recibida como una confesión de soberanía sobre regiones nunca conquistadas, como una decisión favorable de reclamaciones discutibles, y es más bienvenida como más gratuita.

• We must not in the course of public life expect immediate approbation and immediate grateful acknowledgment of our services. But let us persevere through abuse and even injury. The internal satisfaction of a good conscience is always present, and time will do us justice in the minds of the people, even those at present the most prejudiced against us.

• The first point of justice ... consists in piety; nothing certainly being so great a debt upon us as to render to the Creator and Preserver those acknowledgments which are due to Him for our being and the hourly protection He affords us.

• ...innocence of eye has a quality of its own. It means to see as a child sees, with freshness and acknowledgment of the wonder; it also means to see as an adult sees who has gone full circle and once again sees as a child - with freshness and an even deeper sense of wonder.

• Such a strange thing, to hold a six-year-old's hand. Especially a six-year-old you've only just met. A toddler will grab hold of your finger, and someone your own age will clasp on to your whole hand, but with six-year-olds it's something in between, this acknowledgment that they can't be the one to take hold, so you have to do all the holding, folding your hand around theirs, feeling so much bigger and responsible.

• La verdad, la aceptación de la verdad, es una experiencia demoledora. Hace añicos la mortaja del trance cultural. Destruye la petulancia, la arrogancia, la superioridad y la prepotencia. Exige el reconocimiento de la responsabilidad por la naturaleza y la calidad de cada una de nuestras vidas, de nuestra vida interior y de la vida del mundo. La verdad, aceptada interiormente, la verdad que humilla, hace a uno vulnerable. No se puede tener razón, ser santurrón y veraz al mismo tiempo.

• Indeed, the very first acknowledgment (as far as I am aware) of the attraction of mutilated bodies occurs in a founding description of mental conflict. It is a passage in The Republic, Book IV, where Plato’s Socrates describes how our reason may be overwhelmed by an unworthy desire, which drives the self to become angry with a part of its nature.
