Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “If you really believe music is dangerous, you should let it go in one ear and out the other.”
    —José Bergamín (1895–1983)

    “The band waked me with a serenade. How they improve! A fine band and what a life in a regiment! Their music is better than food and clothing to give spirit to the men.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “The train was crammed, the heat stifling. We feel out of sorts, but do not quite know if we are hungry or drowsy. But when we have fed and slept, life will regain its looks, and the American instruments will make music in the merry cafe described by our friend Lange. And then, sometime later, we die.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
