Vocal Tract Typically

Famous quotes containing the words vocal, tract and/or typically:

    The sound of tireless voices is the price we pay for the right to hear the music of our own opinions. But there is also, it seems to me, a moment at which democracy must prove its capacity to act. Every man has a right to be heard; but no man has the right to strangle democracy with a single set of vocal chords.
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    My lusts they do me leave,
    My fancies all be fled,
    And tract of time begins to weave
    Grey hairs upon my head.
    Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)

    [Chicago] is the greatest and most typically American of all cities. New York is bigger and more spectacular and can outmatch it in other superlatives, but it is a “world” city, more European in some respects than American.
    John Gunther (1901–1970)
