Deaf

Famous quotes containing the word deaf:

    Carry hate
    In front of you and harmony behind.
    Be deaf to music and to beauty blind.
    Win war. Rise bloody, maybe not too late
    For having first to civilize a space
    Wherein to play your violin with grace.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Children require guidance and sympathy far more than instruction.
    Anne Sullivan, U.S. educator of the deaf and blind. The Last Word, ed. Carolyn Warner, ch. 16 (1992)

    The sky calls
    To the deaf earth. The proverbial disarray
    Of morning corrects itself as you stand up.
    You are wearing a text.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
