Lay Speakers

Famous quotes containing the words lay and/or speakers:

    It would surpass the powers of a well man nowadays to take up his bed and walk, and I should certainly advise a sick one to lay down his bed and run.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    All the great speakers were bad speakers at first. Stumping it through England for seven years made Cobden a consummate debater. Stumping it through New England for twice seven trained Wendell Phillips.
