Famous quotes containing the word listen:
“Oh! a private buffoon is a light-hearted loon,
If you listen to popular rumour;
From morning to night hes so joyous and bright,
And he bubbles with wit and good humour!”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (18361911)
“That mans silence is wonderful to listen to.”
—Thomas Hardy (18401928)
“You can read the best experts on child care. You can listen to those who have been there. You can take a whole childbirth and child-care course without missing a lesson. But you wont really know a thing about yourselves and each other as parents, or your baby as a child, until you have her in your arms. Thats the moment when the lifelong process of bringing up a child into the fold of the family begins.”
—Stella Chess (20th century)
