Talk

Famous quotes containing the word talk:

    The books we think we ought to read are poky, dull, and dry;
    The books that we would like to read we are ashamed to buy;
    The books that people talk about we never can recall;
    And the books that people give us, oh, they’re the worst of all.
    Carolyn Wells (1870–1942)

    It is painful to be told that anything is very fine and not be able to feel that it is fine—something like being blind, while people talk of the sky.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    Those who talk on the razor-edge of double-meanings pluck the rarest blooms from the precipice on either side.
    Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)
