Ears

Famous quotes containing the word ears:

    I pray thee, cease thy counsel,
    Which falls into mine ears as profitless
    As water in a sieve.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The true Chameleon is small,
    A lizard sort of thing;
    He hasn’t any ears at all,
    And not a single wing.
    If there is nothing on the tree,
    ‘Tis the Chameleon you see.
    Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)

    The miracles of the church seem to me to rest not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from afar off, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
