Broken Tone

Famous quotes containing the words broken and/or tone:

“Your children don’t have equal talents now and they won’t have equal opportunities later in life.

Your heart will be broken a thousand times if you really expect to equalize your children’s happiness by striving to love them equally.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)

“We often contradict an opinion when it is actually only the tone with which it was put forward that is uncongenial to us.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
