Famous quotes containing the word proof:
“The chief contribution of Protestantism to human thought is its massive proof that God is a bore.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“Sculpture and painting are very justly called liberal arts; a lively and strong imagination, together with a just observation, being absolutely necessary to excel in either; which, in my opinion, is by no means the case of music, though called a liberal art, and now in Italy placed even above the other twoa proof of the decline of that country.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (16941773)
“a meek humble Man of modest sense,
Who preaching peace does practice continence;
Whose pious lifes a proof he does believe,
Mysterious truths, which no Man can conceive.”
—John Wilmot, 2d Earl Of Rochester (16471680)
