Famous quotes containing the words showed and/or signs:
“He said he couldn’t make the boy believe
He could find water with a hazel prong—
Which showed how much good school had ever done him.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Among all the modernized aspects of the most luxurious of industries, the model, a vestige of voluptuous barbarianism, is like some plunder-laden prey. She is the object of unbridled regard, a living bait, the passive realization of an ideal.... No other female occupation contains such potent impulses to moral disintegration as this one, applying as it does the outward signs of riches to a poor and beautiful girl.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)
