Famous quotes containing the words indirect and/or speech:
“God knows, my son,
By what by-paths and indirect crooked ways
I met this crown.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“His speech is a burning fire;
With his lips he travaileth;
In his heart is a blind desire,
In his eyes foreknowledge of death:
He weaves, and is clothed with derision;
Sows, and he shall not reap;
His life is a watch or a vision
Between a sleep and a sleep.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)
