“It is not enough merely to memorize and spout vocal axioms: good singing is infinitely more than much talk and head-knowledge.”
Jerome Hines
“A whale is harpooned only when it spouts.”
Henry Hillman
“GARGOYLE, n. A rain-spout projecting from the eaves of mediaeval buildings, commonly fashioned into a grotesque caricature of some personal enemy of the architect or owner of the building. This was especially the case in churches and ecclesiastical structures generally, in which the gargoyles presented a perfect rogues' gallery of local heretics and controversialists. Sometimes when a new dean and chapter were installed the old gargoyles were removed and others substituted having a closer relation to the private animosities of the new incumbents.”
Ambrose Bierce
“The medium has a self-policing aspect. If you come into a chat and spout off about a stock and it's not true, a lot of people will catch that.”
David Gardner
“That is a real thrill to see the spouts.”
Don Davey
“I strongly encourage people to make sure down spouts are draining away from the foundation, because that contributes to flooding. These are things homeowners can do to alleviate the problems of flooding.”
Craig Miller
“We've actually seen them so close that you can see the spout but you can't see the whale. You have to crawl out on your hands and knees and look out over the rocks. They like to come up and rub against the rocks.”
Morris Graves
