Famous quotes containing the word appeal:

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“You can’t write about people out of textbooks, and you can’t use jargon. You have to speak clearly and simply and purely in a language that a six-year-old child can understand; and yet have the meanings and the overtones of language, and the implications, that appeal to the highest intelligence.”
—Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)
“Every man wants a woman to appeal to his better side, his nobler instincts and his higher nature—and another woman to help him forget them.”
