Speak

Famous quotes containing the word speak:

“Be thou a spirit of health, or goblin damned,
Bring with thee airs from heaven, or blasts from hell,
Be thy intents wicked or charitable,
Thou com’st in such a questionable shape
That I will speak to thee.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“I want that glib and oily art
To speak and purpose not, since what I well intend,
I’ll do’t before I speak.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“they know me,
they help me unravel,
they listen with ears made of conch shells,
they speak back with the wine of the best region.
They are my staff.
They comfort me.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
