Famous quotes containing the word hearing:
“She had some art of hearing and yet not
Hearing the latter wisdom of the world.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“It is surely a matter of common observation that a man who knows no one thing intimately has no views worth hearing on things in general. The farmer philosophizes in terms of crops, soils, markets, and implements, the mechanic generalizes his experiences of wood and iron, the seaman reaches similar conclusions by his own special road; and if the scholar keeps pace with these it must be by an equally virile productivity.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (18641929)
“With all the gracious utterance thou hast
Speak to his gentle hearing kind commends.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
