Grammatical Subject

Famous quotes containing the words grammatical and/or subject:

    “Speech and prose are not the same thing. They have different wave-lengths, for speech moves at the speed of light, where prose moves at the speed of the alphabet, and must be consecutive and grammatical and word-perfect. Prose cannot gesticulate. Speech can sometimes do nothing more.”
    —James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)

    “Thy spotless Muse, like Mary, did contain
    The boundless Godhead; she did well disdain
    That her eternal Verse employ’d should be
    On a less subject than Eternitie;”
    —Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)
