Pronounce

Famous quotes containing the word pronounce:

“People in places many of us never heard of, whose names we can’t pronounce or even spell, are speaking up for themselves. They speak in languages we once classified as “exotic” but whose mastery is now essential for our diplomats and businessmen. But what they say is very much the same the world over. They want a decent standard of living. They want human dignity and a voice in their own futures. They want their children to grow up strong and healthy and free.”
—Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

“We must pronounce him fortunate who has ended his life in fair prosperity.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

“No matter which word it is, when I pronounce repeatedly, it ends up sounding utterly ridiculous and meaningless to me.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
