“Provoking, isn't it? that when one is most in need of sensible words, one finds them not.”
Charlotte L. Forten Grimke
“I come from a generation of sceptics, who do not believe what politicians say. The Labour Party wants to convince people through actions, not words. The Nationalist party have given the country 25 years of lies, the Labour Party will build the country anew.”
Joseph Muscat
“For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.”
Bible
“Not to be provoked is best; but if moved, never correct till the fume is spent; for every stroke our fury strikes is sure to hit ourselves at last”
William Penn
“Testimony showed my client (Copeland) didn't have anything to drink. My client did not provoke this fight.”
Richard Patton

Dan Weiss
“I was removed from the game for an incident that I did not provoke, and I am standing up for what I believe is right. All I wanted to do was referee the game that I was entitled because of the ratings and my performance. I feel that it's personal, and I feel it's racial. I feel like I am being discriminated against, and I don't think it's fair. I didn't do anything wrong or illegal.”
