Famous quotes containing the word pointing:
“These marbles, the works of the dreamers and idealists of old, live on, leading and pointing to good. They are the works of visionaries and dreamers, but they are realizations of soul, the representations of the ideal. They are grand, beautiful, and true, and they speak with a voice that echoes through the ages. Governments have changed; empires have fallen; nations have passed away; but these mute marbles remainthe oracles of time, the perfection of art.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
“Circumstantial evidence is a very tricky thing, answered Holmes thoughtfully. It may seem to point very straight to one thing, but if you shift your own point of view a little, you may find it pointing in an equally uncompromising manner to something entirely different.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (18591930)
“And pointing to his disciples, he said, Here are my mother and my brothers!”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 12:49.
