Practiced Ear

Famous quotes containing the words practiced and/or ear:

“Death is too much for men to bear, whereas women, who are practiced in bearing the deaths of men before their own and who are also practiced in bearing life, take death almost in stride. They go to meet death—that is, they attempt suicide—twice as often as men, though men are more “successful” because they use surer weapons, like guns.”
—Roger Rosenblatt (b. 1940)

“A lover’s eyes will gaze an eagle blind.
A lover’s ear will hear the lowest sound.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
