Famous quotes containing the words evidence and/or heard:
“I believe that no characteristic is so distinctively human as the sense of indebtedness we feel, not necessarily for a favor received, but even for the slightest evidence of kindness; and there is nothing so boorish, savage, inhuman as to appear to be overwhelmed by a favor, let alone unworthy of it.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
“I have heard it said
There is an art which in their piedness shares
With great creating nature.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
