Famous quotes containing the word spelling:

    As to spelling the very frequent word though with six letters instead of two, it is impossible to discuss it, as it is outside the range of common sanity. In comparison such a monstrosity as phlegm for flem is merely disgusting.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Some let me make you of the heartless words.
    The heart is drained that, spelling in the scurry
    Of chemic blood, warned of the coming fury.
    By the sea’s side hear the dark-vowelled birds.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    We drove the Indians out of the land,
    But a dire revenge those Redmen planned,
    For they fastened a name to every nook,
    And every boy with a spelling book
    Will have to toil till his hair turns gray
    Before he can spell them the proper way.
    Eva March Tappan (1854–1930)
