Dinner Time

Famous quotes containing the words dinner and/or time:

    The government of the world I live in was not framed, like that of Britain, in after- dinner conversations over the wine.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The reader uses his eyes as well as or instead of his ears and is in every way encouraged to take a more abstract view of the language he sees. The written or printed sentence lends itself to structural analysis as the spoken does not because the reader’s eye can play back and forth over the words, giving him time to divide the sentence into visually appreciated parts and to reflect on the grammatical function.
    J. David Bolter (b. 1951)
