Final Speech

Famous quotes containing the words final and/or speech:

    “Child with continuing cling issued his No in final fire,
    Kissed back the colored maid,
    Not wise enough to freeze or be afraid.
    Conscious of kindness, easy creature bond.
    Love had been handy and rapid to respond.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    “Our speech has its weaknesses and its defects, like all the rest. Most of the occasions for the troubles of the world are grammatical.”
