Study Rhetoric

Famous quotes containing the words study and/or rhetoric:

    I leaf through books, I do not study them. What I retain of them is something I no longer recognize as anyone else’s.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    The United Nations cannot do anything, and never could; it is not an animate entity or agent. It is a place, a stage, a forum and a shrine ... a place to which powerful people can repair when they are fearful about the course on which their own rhetoric seems to be propelling them.
    Conor Cruise O’Brien (b. 1917)
