Talks

Famous quotes containing the word talks:

    Adults understandably assume that the level of verbal proficiency a five-year-old displays represents his level of proficiency in all areas of functioning—if he talks like an adult, he must think and feel like one. However, five-year-olds,... belie the promise of adult-like behavior with their child-like, impulsive actions.
    Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

    They are that that talks of going
    But never gets away;
    And that talks no less for knowing,
    As it grows wiser and older,
    That now it means to stay.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Here falling houses thunder on your head,
    And here a female atheist talks you dead.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
