Their glory is that they saw above the brute force of great empires the might of right, and dared to vision its triumph, and that history has verified their moral insight. But they chiefly spake, as the author of The Revelation declares of his prophecy, "of things which must shortly come to pass" upon the earth.
There is our later edition of the book on that table; the title-page will tell you all you want to know. Vincent's hand trembled as he took the book. Then he opened it, and the title-page did tell him all. His worst suspicions were more than verified. He had been meanly betrayed by the man he had trusted the man whom he had thought his dearest friend!
We have very sophisticated, proven means, including our satellites, to determine for ourselves whether or not the Soviet Union is meeting its treaty obligations. I will sign no agreement which cannot be verified.

"That thought had come to my mind before engaging in this mission, and it is that which drew me from my Michigan home." "Doesn't this pay you," he continued, "for coming all this distance, to see those sparkling eyes and light hearts dancing with joy?"

"Personally I have never verified one. When you spoke of the reverend gentlemen for the first time, I said, 'Study the link! There will be development in the link if all the rest of it."

Has it ever struck you that Harding was almost too successful a clergyman to be a genuinely holy man?"
Here a considerable portion of the French army had already arrived, having been brought down from Genoa. There was no news of the King of England; and, as often happens, the saying "the more haste the less speed," had been verified here.
So when Austin came Richard said he could not leave Lady Judith, Lady Judith said she could not part with him. For his sake, mind! This Richard verified. Perhaps he had reason to be grateful. The high road of Folly may have led him from one that terminates worse. He is foolish, God knows; but for my part I will not laugh at the hero because he has not got his occasion.
It is due, however, to the two Herschels, the chief supporters of this theory, to say, that they have always spoken of it only as a hypothesis, and by no means as an established fact in astronomical science. And, as a hypothesis, it labors under this peculiar difficulty, that it evidently never can be verified.
Nor have I ever heard of an instance, verified by other testimony than that of the inventor, of a speedy and agreeable voyage having been performed in a steamboat of any construction.
