Held Hearings

Famous quotes containing the words held and/or hearings:

    For a transitory enchanted moment man must have held his breath in the presence of this continent, compelled into an aesthetic contemplation he neither understood nor desired, face to face for the last time in history with something commensurate to his capacity for wonder.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Aged ears play truant at his tales,
    And younger hearings are quite ravished,
    So sweet and voluble is his discourse.
