Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “On the first days, like a piece of music that one will later be mad about, but that one does not yet distinguish, that which I was to love so much in [Bergotte’s] style was not yet clear to me. I could not put down the novel that I was reading, but I thought that I was only interested in the subject, as in the first moments of love when one goes every day to see a woman at some gathering, or some pastime, by the amusements to which one believes to be attracted.”
    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    “A woman’s two cents worth is worth two cents in the music business.”
    —Loretta Lynn (b. 1930)
