Tongue/physiology

Famous quotes containing the words tongue and/or physiology:

    I avoid talking before the youth of the age as I would dancing before them: for if one’s tongue don’t move in the steps of the day, and thinks to please by its old graces, it is only an object of ridicule.
    Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

    A physician’s physiology has much the same relation to his power of healing as a cleric’s divinity has to his power of influencing conduct.
