Prove

Famous quotes containing the word prove:

    Husband, I come!
    Now to that name my courage prove my title!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Today is made of yesterday, each time I steal
    toward rites I do not know, waiting for the lost
    ingredient, as if salt or money or even lust
    would keep us calm and prove us whole at last.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Reporters are not paid to operate in retrospect. Because when news begins to solidify into current events and finally harden into history, it is the stories we didn’t write, the questions we didn’t ask that prove far, far more damaging than the ones we did.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
