EARS
[ Also see Hearing ]

Make not my, ear a stranger to thy thoughts.
      - Joseph Addison

One ear it heard, at the other out it went.
      - Geoffrey Chaucer

A side intelligencer.
      - Charles Lamb (used pseudonym Elia)

Sir J. Davies calls the ear the wicket of the soul.
      - George Augustus Henry Sala

Eyes and ears, two traded pilots 'twixt the dangerous shores of will and judgment.
      - William Shakespeare

It adds a precious seeing to the eye:
  A lover's eyes will gaze an eagle blind.
    A lover's ear will hear the lowest sound,
      When the suspicious head of theft is stopped.
      - William Shakespeare, Love's Labor's Lost
         (Berowne at IV, iii)

The ear is the avenue to the heart.
  [Fr., L'oreille est le chemin du coeur.]
      - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire),
        Reponse au Roi de Prusse

The ear in man and beast is an evidence of blood and high breeding.
      - Nathaniel Parker Willis
