Touch Tone

Famous quotes containing the words touch and/or tone:

“when we touch
we enter touch entirely. No one’s alone.
Men kill for this, or for as much.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“...I ... believe that words can help us move or keep us paralyzed, and that our choices of language and verbal tone have something—a great deal—to do with how we live our lives and whom we end up speaking with and hearing; and that we can deflect words, by trivialization, of course, but also by ritualized respect, or we can let them enter our souls and mix with the juices of our minds.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
