Speak

Famous quotes containing the word speak:

“Could truth perhaps be a woman who has reasons for not permitting her reasons to be seen? Could her name perhaps be—to speak Greek—Baubo?... Oh, those Greeks! They understood how to live: to do that it is necessary to stop bravely at the surface, the fold, the skin, to adore the appearance, to believe in forms, in tones, in words, in the whole Olympus of appearance! Those Greeks were superficial—out of profundity!”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“But only speak the word, and let my servant be healed.”
—Bible: New Testament, Luke 7:7.

Centurion, by word of messenger, to Jesus.

“I speak truth, not my belly-full, but as much as I dare; and I dare the more the more I grow into years.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
