Famous quotes containing the words bit and/or word:

    “So far we have been going firmly ahead, feeling the firm ground of prejudice glide away beneath our feet which is always rather exhilarating, but what next?

    —J.L. (John Langshaw)

    “A word perhaps loud spoken you may get,
    Or hear our feet when heavily they tread;
    But he who speaks, or him who’s spoken to,
    Must both remain as strangers still to you.”
