Famous quotes containing the words intelligible and/or speech:
“No matter what disaster occurred
She stood in desperate music wound
Wound, wound, and she made in her triumph
Where the bales and the baskets lay
No common intelligible sound
But sang, “O sea-starved hungry sea.””

“Go three days without reading and your speech will become tasteless.”
