Ears

Famous quotes containing the word ears:

    Shut out from the world with its blare and glare, life in an institution moves softly. The ears become attuned to gentle notes and a subdued tone.
    Mary B. Harris (1874–1957)

    You cram these words into mine ears against
    The stomach of my sense.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I press not to the quire, nor dare I greet
    The holy place with my unhallowed feet;
    My unwashed Muse pollutes not things divine,
    Nor mingles her profaner notes with thine;
    Here humbly at the porch she listening stays,
    And with glad ears sucks in thy sacred lays.
    Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
