Famous quotes containing the word voice:
“When love speaks, the voice of all the gods
Make heaven drowsy with the harmony.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“These marbles, the works of the dreamers and idealists of old, live on, leading and pointing to good. They are the works of visionaries and dreamers, but they are realizations of soul, the representations of the ideal. They are grand, beautiful, and true, and they speak with a voice that echoes through the ages. Governments have changed; empires have fallen; nations have passed away; but these mute marbles remain—the oracles of time, the perfection of art.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“Listen not merely to what is said but to the tone of voice in which it is said.”
—Chinese proverb.
