Learned Word Pairs

Famous quotes containing the words learned and/or word:

    No habit or quality is more easily acquired than hypocrisy, nor any thing sooner learned than to deny the sentiments of our hearts and the principle we act from: but the seeds of every passion are innate to us, and nobody comes into the world without them.
    Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)

    I cannot halt
    The tread, the beat of it, it is my own heart,
    The walls of my room rise, it is still night,
    I have woken again before the word was spelt.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
