Famous quotes containing the word hearing:
“I do not allow myself to be moved by anything except the law. If there has been a mistake in the law, or if I think there has been perjury or injustice, I will weigh the petition most carefully, but I do not permit myself to be moved by more harrowing details, and I try to treat each case as if I was reviewing it or hearing it for the first time from the bench.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“I sprang not more in joy at first hearing he was a man-child
than now in first seeing he had proved himself a man.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A fearful man is always hearing things.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
