Famous quotes containing the words match and/or facts:

    “I’ve noticed over the years that kids who are allowed to be emotionally honest develop a genuineness that more repressed kids don’t ever seem to acquire. Their words match their facial expressions. Their actions match their words, and they relate from a position of strength.”
    —Stephanie Martson (20th century)

    “Scholars dream of finding small facts pregnant with great progeny.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
