Famous quotes containing the word shown:

    Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together.... Female friendships, particularly close friendships, are usually based on self-disclosure, or on talking about intimate aspects of their lives.
    Bettina Arndt (20th century)

    I should be very willing to redress
    Men’s wrongs, and rather check than punish crimes,
    Had not Cervantes, in that all too true tale
    Of Quixote, shown how all such efforts fail.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Therefore, I tell you, her sins, which were many, have been forgiven; hence she has shown great love.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 7:47.
