Deaf People

Famous quotes containing the words deaf and/or people:

    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)

    Most people dislike vanity in others, whatever share they have of it themselves; but I give it fair quarter, wherever I meet with it, being persuaded that it is often productive of good to the possessor, and to others who are within his sphere of action: and therefore, in many cases, it would not be altogether absurd if a man were to thank God for his vanity among the other comforts of life.
    Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
