An appeal to fear never finds an echo in German hearts.
Otto von Bismarck
And now, once again, I bid my hideous progeny go forth and prosper. I have an affection for it, for it was the offspring of happy days, when death and grief were but words, which found no true echo in my heart.
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Any effects created before 1975 were done with either tape or echo chambers or some kind of acoustic treatment. No magic black boxes!
Alan Parsons
As individuals and as a nation, we now suffer from social narcissism. The beloved Echo of our ancestors, the virgin America, has been abandoned. We have fallen in love with our own image, with images of our making, which turn out to be images of ourselves.
Daniel J. Boorstin
Ennui is the echo in us of time tearing itself apart.
Emile M. Cioran
Even Echo speaks not on these radiant moors.
Barry Cornwall
Fame is the echo of actions, resounding them to the world, save that the echo repeats only the last art, but fame relates all, and often more than all.
Thomas Fuller
I don't like to talk much with people who always agree with me. It is amusing to coquette with an echo for a little while, but one soon tires of it.
Thomas Carlyle
I take it for granted that you do not wish to hear an echo from the pulpit nor from the theological class-room.
Asa Gray
I will offer a choice, not an echo.
Barry Goldwater
I would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to create a sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all.
Richard Wright
If you're in a forest, the quality of the echo is very strange because echoes back off so many surfaces of all those trees that you get this strange, itchy ricochet effect.
Brian Eno
It is not so much the example of others we imitate as the reflection of ourselves in their eyes and the echo of ourselves in their words.
Eric Hoffer
It is the folly of too many to mistake the echo of a London coffee-house for the voice of the kingdom.
Jonathan Swift
It seems that laughter needs an echo.
Henri Bergson
Knowledge is soon changed, then lost in the mist, an echo half-heard.
Gene Wolfe
Music is the harmonious voice of creation; an echo of the invisible world.
Giuseppe Mazzini
My romantically favorite era is 78, 79 listening to Grandmaster Flash and the Furious 4, the live tapes, echo chamber and break beats.
Kool Moe Dee
Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance.
Carl Sandburg
Publishing a volume of verse is like dropping a rose petal down the Grand Canyon and waiting for the echo.
