Famous quotes related to listen to:

“The children [on TV] are too well behaved and are reasonable beyond their years. All the children pop in with exceptional insights. On many of the shows the children’s insights are apt to be unexpectedly philosophical. The lesson seems to be, ‘Listen to little children carefully and you will learn great truths.’”
—G. Weinberg. originally quoted in ‘What Is Television’s World of the Single Parent Doing to Your Family?’ TV Guide (August 1970)

“In the continual enterprise of trying to guide appropriately, renegotiate with, listen to and just generally coexist with our teenage children, we ourselves are changed. We learn even more clearly what our base-line virtues are. We listen to our teenagers and change our minds about some things, stretching our own limits. We learn our own capacity for flexibility, firmness and endurance.”
—Jean Jacobs Speizer. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Collective, ch. 4 (1978)

“Listen to them. Children of the night, what music they make.”
—Garrett Fort (1900–1945)

“... your spiritual teachers caution you against enquiry—tell you not to read certain books; not to listen to certain people; to beware of profane learning; to submit your reason, and to receive their doctrines for truths. Such advice renders them suspicious counsellors.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)

“Fanatics are picturesque, mankind would rather see gestures than listen to reasons.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
