Famous quotes containing the words bone, anchored, hearing and/or aid:

    the bone dry voices of the peepers
    as they throb like advertisements.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I make this in a warring absence when
    Each ancient, stone-necked minute of love’s season
    Harbours my anchored tongue....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    It is surely a matter of common observation that a man who knows no one thing intimately has no views worth hearing on things in general. The farmer philosophizes in terms of crops, soils, markets, and implements, the mechanic generalizes his experiences of wood and iron, the seaman reaches similar conclusions by his own special road; and if the scholar keeps pace with these it must be by an equally virile productivity.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    Without the aid of prejudice and custom, I should not be able to find my way across the room.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
