Quotes About Proof

Love, being in love, isn't a constant thing. It doesn't always flow at the same strength. It's not always like a river in flood. It's more like the sea. It has tides, it ebbs and flows.

And that's the only proof you can have that it is real, and not just a crush or an infatuation or a passing fancy

What is at stake is by no means the question of whether our German members of congregations can still tolerate church fellowship with the Jews.

I can see the messy, haphazard collection of instructions that make up a human life. While some would argue that the fact that this almost random pattern is proof of a miracle, I'd point out that by that logic, every living thing that manages to be born is a miracle—and if we're all miracles, then nobody is, because the word has lost its meaning. Life works or it doesn't.
