Voice Cards

Famous quotes containing the words voice and/or cards:

“Sometimes in conversation the sound of our own voice distracts us and misleads us into making assertions that in no way express our true opinions.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Out in Hollywood, where the streets are paved with Goldwyn, the word “sophisticate” means, very simply, “obscene.” A sophisticated story is a dirty story. Some of that meaning was wafted eastward and got itself mixed up into the present definition. So that a “sophisticate” means: one who dwells in a tower made of a DuPont substitute for ivory and holds a glass of flat champagne in one hand and an album of dirty post cards in the other.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
