Heard

Famous quotes containing the word heard:

    If the religious spirit be ever mentioned in any historical narration, we are sure to meet afterwards with a detail of the miseries which attend it. And no period of time can be happier or more prosperous, than those in which it is never regarded or heard of.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    Until they saw, over the mists
    of Venus, two fish creatures stop
    on spangled legs and crawl
    from the belly of the sea.
    And from the planet park
    they heard the new fruit drop.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The murmuring surge,
    That on th’ unnumbered idle pebble chafes,
    Cannot be heard so high.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
