Famous quotes containing the words pause and/or song:
“Between the dark and the daylight,
When the night is beginning to lower,
Comes a pause in the day’s occupations,
That is known as the Children’s Hour.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
“Who is at my window, who, who?
It’s the blind cuckoo, mulling
the old song over.
The old song is about fear, about
tomorrow and next year.
Timor mortis conturbat me, he sings....”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
