Famous quotes containing the word noise:

    “I live in the angle of a leaden wall, into whose composition was poured a little alloy of bell-metal. Often, in the repose of my mid-day, there reaches my ears a confused tintinnabulum from without. It is the noise of my contemporaries.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The noise of battle hurtled in the air,
    Horses did neigh, and dying men did groan,
    And ghosts did shriek and squeal about the streets.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Let there be no noise made, my gentle friends,
    Unless some dull and favorable hand
    Will whisper music to my weary spirit.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
