Voice Peter

Famous quotes containing the words voice and/or peter:

“With fingers weary and worn,
With eyelids heavy and red,
A woman sat, in unwomanly rags,
Plying her needle and thread—
Stitch! stitch! stitch!
In poverty, hunger and dirt
And still with a voice of dolorous pitch
She sang the “Song of the Shirt.””
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)

“In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.”
