Argues

Famous quotes containing the word argues:

    However low and poor the taking Snuff argues a Man to be in his own Stock of Thought, or Means to employ his Brains and his Fingers, yet there is a poorer Creature in the World than He, and this is a Borrower of Snuff; a Fellow that keeps no Box of his own, but is always asking others for a Pinch.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)

    A wit should no more be sincere, than a woman constant; one argues a decay of parts, as t’other of beauty.
    William Congreve (1670–1729)

    Not to know me argues yourselves unknown.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
