Human Vocal Fold

Famous quotes containing the words human, vocal and/or fold:

    Loyalty to petrified opinions never yet broke a chain or freed a human soul in this world—and never will.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    The sound of tireless voices is the price we pay for the right to hear the music of our own opinions. But there is also, it seems to me, a moment at which democracy must prove its capacity to act. Every man has a right to be heard; but no man has the right to strangle democracy with a single set of vocal chords.
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    It’s of a rich squire in Bristol doth dwell,
    There are ladies of honour that love him well,
    But all was in vain, in vain was said,
    For he was in love with a charming milkmaid.
    —Unknown. Squire and Milkmaid; or, Blackberry Fold (l. 1–4)
