Word Ends

Famous quotes containing the words word and/or ends:

    From the moment a child begins to speak, he is taught to respect the word; he is taught how to use the word and how not to use it. The word is all-powerful, because it can build a man up, but it can also tear him down. That’s how powerful it is. So a child is taught to use words tenderly and never against anyone; a child is told never to take anyone’s name or reputation in vain.
    Henry Old Coyote (20th century)

    These seem like bristles, and the hide is tough.
    No claw or web here: each foot ends in hoof.
    Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
