ocr: Artistic and inartistic proofs Aristotle categorized proofs (supports for arguments) into these categories. Artistic proofs come from or relate to the speaker or writer. Lance Armstrong's personal experience- -in battling cancer and winning bicycling races- -is that every second counts. Inartistic proofs are those that exist independently from the arguer, such as contracts, witness testimony, or the data presented in this pie chart, for example.
