Natural Proofs

Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or proofs:

    “Though a censure lies against those who are poor and proud, yet is Pride sooner to be forgiven in a poor person than in a rich one; since in the latter it is insult and arrogance; in the former, it may be a defense against temptations to dishonesty; and, if manifested on proper occasions, may indicate a natural bravery of mind, which the frowns of fortune cannot depress.”
    —Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    “Trifles light as air
    Are to the jealous confirmation strong
    As proofs of holy writ.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
