Famous quotes containing the words rhythmic and/or figures:
“O birds, your perfect virtues bring,
Your song, your forms, your rhythmic flight,
Your manners for your hearts delight,
Nestle in hedge, or barn, or roof,
Here weave your chamber weather-proof,
Forgive our harms, and condescend
To man, as to a lubber friend,
And, generous, teach his awkward race
Courage, and probity, and grace!”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, Im not going to deny that you dont now and then slip up on something; no one bats a thousand.”
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
