“Wagner: Yet elocution makes the orator; I'm far behind, I feel it more and more. Faust: Seek thou an honest retribution! Be thou no motley, jingling fool! It needs but little elocution To speak good sense by reason's rule. It ye've a message to deliver, Need ye for words be hunting ever?” — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
