Speech Filing

Famous quotes containing the words speech and/or filing:

“What is this conversation, now secular,
A speech not mine yet speaking for me in
The heaving jelly of my tribal air?
It rises in the throat, it climbs the tongue,
It perches there for secret tutelage....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“Is not the whole world a vast house of assignation of which the filing system has been lost?”
