Claimed Proof

Famous quotes containing the words claimed and/or proof:

    In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.
    Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)

    The proof of a poet is that his country absorbs him as affectionately as he has absorbed it.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
