Heard

Famous quotes containing the word heard:

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I thank those who were good enough to say something pleasant about the incoming administration, for I am glad to get it now. I heard of the man who went into office with a majority and went out with unanimity.”

“As they wend away
A voice is heard singing
Of Kitty, or Katy,
As if the name meant once
All love, all beauty.”
