Case Heard

Famous quotes containing the words case and/or heard:

“A woman’s whole life is a history of the affections. The heart is her world: it is there her ambition strives for empire; it is there her avarice seeks for hidden treasures. She sends forth her sympathies on adventure; she embarks her whole soul on the traffic of affection; and if shipwrecked, her case is hopeless—for it is a bankruptcy of the heart.”
—Washington Irving (1783–1859)

“DEAR WALDO,—For I think I have heard that that is your name.... Whatever I may call you, I know you better than I know your name.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
