Famous quotes containing the word evidence:
“There is evidence that all too many people are approaching parenthood with a dangerous lack of knowledge and skill.

—T. H. Bell (20th century)
“Never say a humorous thing to a man who does not possess humour. He will always use it in evidence against you.”
—Herbert, Sir Beerbohm (1853–1917)
“Analysis is more likely to adjust evidence than to adjust itself.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
