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)

“The subject is said to have the property of making dull men eloquent.”
