Speak

Famous quotes containing the word speak:

“I speak not like a dotard nor a fool,
As under privilege of age to brag
What I have done being young, or what would do
Were I not old.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“So all who hide too well away
Must speak and tell us where they are.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“Women born at the turn of the century have been conditioned not to speak openly of their wedding nights. Of other nights in bed with other men they speak not at all. Today a woman having bedded with a great general feels free to tell us that in bed the general could not present arms. Women of my generation would have spared the great general the revelation of this failure.”
—Jessamyn West (1907–1984)
