Hears Appeals

Famous quotes containing the words hears and/or appeals:

“To one who is accustomed to thinking a lot, every new thought that he hears or reads about immediately appears as a link in a chain.”
—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)
