Quotations for delivery

There's a charm in delivery, a magical art,
That thrills like a kiss from the lip to the heart;
It is the glance - the expression - the well-chosen word -
By whose magic the depths of the spirit are stirred.
The lip's soft persuasion - its musical tone:
Oh! such were the charms of that eloquent one! [ Mrs. Welby ]

There is a great difference in the delivery of the mathematics, which are the most abstracted of knowledges. [ Lord Bacon ]
