Famous quotes containing the word developed:
“Poetry is the most direct and simple means of expressing oneself in words: the most primitive nations have poetry, but only quite well developed civilizations can produce good prose. So don’t think of poetry as a perverse and unnatural way of distorting ordinary prose statements: prose is a much less natural way of speaking than poetry is. If you listen to small children, and to the amount of chanting and singsong in their speech, you’ll see what I mean.”
—Northrop Frye (1912–1991)
“Toddlers are impulsive. One- and two-year-olds have not yet developed control over their actions. What they see, they want. What they feel, they express. What they think, they do.”
—Nancy Balaban (20th century)
“... the aristocracy most widely developed in America is that of wealth.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
