Show

Famous quotes containing the word show:

    I shall be a benefactor if I conquer some realms from the night, if I report to the gazettes anything transpiring about us at that season worthy of their attention,—if I can show men that there is some beauty awake while they are asleep,—if I add to the domains of poetry.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    And I will show that nothing can happen more beautiful than death.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    The country is not paradise, and can show the vices that grieve a good man everywhere. But there is room in it, and leisure.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
