Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “As if, as if, as if the disparate halves
    Of things were waiting in a betrothal known
    To none, awaiting espousal to the sound
    Of right joining, a music of ideas, the burning
    And breeding and bearing birth of harmony,
    The final relation, the marriage of the rest.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “O I shall hear skull skull,
    Hear your lame music,
    Believe music rejects undertaking,
    Limps back.”
    —Owen Dodson (b. 1914)

    “I used to be angry all the time and I’d sit there weaving my anger. Now I’m not angry. I sit there hearing the sounds outside, the sounds in the room, the sounds of the treadles and heddles—a music of my own making.”
    —Bhakti Ziek (b. c. 1946)
