Famous quotes containing the word spoke:

    I never spoke with God
    Nor visited in Heaven—
    Yet certain am I of the spot
    As if the Checks were given—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    Thus spoke the devil to me once: “God too has his hell: that is his love of man.” And most recently I heard him say this: “God is dead; God died of his pity for man.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    We can remember as easily as the day we were born
    The maggots we passed on the way and how the day bled
    And the night too on hearing us, though we spoke only our childish
    Ideas and never tried to impress anybody even when somewhat older.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
