Marked Tone

Famous quotes containing the words marked and/or tone:

    He whom God has touched will always be a being apart: he is, whatever he may do, a stranger among men; he is marked by a sign.
    Ernest Renan (1823–1892)

    It hurts me to hear the tone in which the poor are condemned as “shiftless,” or “having a pauper spirit,” just as it would if a crowd mocked at a child for its weakness, or laughed at a lame man because he could not run, or a blind man because he stumbled.
    Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)
