Famous quotes containing the words declared and/or innocent:
“The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one’s real and one’s declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish squirting out ink.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“To the innocent there are neither cherubim nor angels.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
