Famous quotes containing the word mouth:

    I was tired of being a woman,
    tired of the spoons and the pots,
    tired of my mouth and my breasts,
    tired of the cosmetics and the silks.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Now go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you are to speak.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 4:12.

    Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you—trippingly on the tongue; but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand, thus, but use all gently; for in the very torrent, tempest, and as I may say, the whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
