Famous quotes containing the words hebrew and/or text:
“How long halt ye between two opinions?”
—Bible: Hebrew Elijah, in 1 Kings, 18:21.
Spoken to the children of Israel.
“Great speeches have always had great soundbites. The problem now is that the young technicians who put together speeches are paying attention only to the soundbite, not to the text as a whole, not realizing that all great soundbites happen by accident, which is to say, all great soundbites are yielded up inevitably, as part of the natural expression of the text. They are part of the tapestry, they aren’t a little flower somebody sewed on.”
—Peggy Noonan (b. 1950)
