Famous quotes related to listen to:

“Listen to what people say about themselves; they will tell you everything you need to know.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“Listen to any musical phrase or rhythm, and grasp it as a whole, and you thereupon have present in you the image, so to speak, of the divine knowledge of the temporal order.”
—Josiah Royce (1855–1916)

“The children [on TV] are too well behaved and are reasonable beyond their years. All the children pop in with exceptional insights. On many of the shows the children’s insights are apt to be unexpectedly philosophical. The lesson seems to be, ‘Listen to little children carefully and you will learn great truths.’”
—G. Weinberg. originally quoted in ‘What Is Television’s World of the Single Parent Doing to Your Family?’ TV Guide (August 1970)

“Fools think their own way is right, but the wise listen to advice.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 12:15.

“... when you make it a moral necessity for the young to dabble in all the subjects that the books on the top shelf are written about, you kill two very large birds with one stone: you satisfy precious curiosities, and you make them believe that they know as much about life as people who really know something. If college boys are solemnly advised to listen to lectures on prostitution, they will listen; and who is to blame if some time, in a less moral moment, they profit by their information?”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
