Famous quotes containing the words parts of, parts and/or speech:

    “Our books are false by being fragmentary: their sentences are bon mots, and not parts of natural discourse; childish expressions of surprise or pleasure in nature; or, worse, owing a brief notoriety to their petulance, or aversion from the order of nature,—being some curiosity or oddity, designedly not in harmony with nature, and purposely framed to excite surprise, as jugglers do by concealing their means.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 18:8.

    “Tell X that speech is not dirty silence
    Clarified. It is silence made still dirtier.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
