Hears Appeals

Famous quotes containing the words hears and/or appeals:

“He who sees little always sees a little less; he who hears badly always hears a little more.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“If tragedy elicits our compassion, comedy appeals to our self-interest. The former confronts life’s failures with noble fortitude, the latter seeks to circumvent them with shrewd nonchalance. The one leaves us momentarily in a mood of resignation, the other in a condition of euphoria.”
—Harry Levin (b. 1912)
