Showed

Famous quotes containing the word showed:

    He took him down below a cramping rafter,
    And showed him, through a manhole in the floor,
    The water in desperate straits like frantic fish,
    Salmon and sturgeon, lashing with their tails.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Then the devil led him up and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 4:5.

    Polarized light showed the secret architecture of bodies; and when the second-sight of the mind is opened, now one color or form or gesture, and now another, has a pungency, as if a more interior ray had been emitted, disclosing its deep holdings in the frame of things.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
