Word Spelled

Famous quotes containing the words word and/or spelled:

    Sometimes a word will start it, like
    Hands and feet, sun and gloves. The way
    Is fraught with danger, you say, and I
    Notice the word “fraught”....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Freedom of enterprise was from the beginning not altogether a blessing. As the liberty to work or to starve, it spelled toil, insecurity, and fear for the vast majority of the population. If the individual were no longer compelled to prove himself on the market, as a free economic subject, the disappearance of this freedom would be one of the greatest achievements of civilization.
    Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
