Attuned

Famous quotes containing the word attuned:

    It is remarkable by how much a pinch of malice enhances the penetrating power of an idea or an opinion. Our ears, it seems, are wonderfully attuned to sneers and evil reports about our fellow men.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    His ear is so sensitively attuned to the bugle note of history that he is often deaf to the more raucous clamour of contemporary life.
    Aneurin Bevan (1897–1960)
