Japanese Voice

Famous quotes containing the words japanese and/or voice:

    “The Japanese have perfected good manners and made them indistinguishable from rudeness.”
    —Paul Theroux (b. 1941)

    “And, shrilling from the solar course,
    Or from fruit of chemic force,
    Procession of a soul in matter,
    Or the speeding change of water,
    Or out of the good of evil born,
    Came Uriel’s voice of cherub scorn,
    And a blush tinged the upper sky,
    And the gods shook, they knew not why.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
