Famous quotes containing the words pause and/or song:
“The Crucifixion and other historical precedents notwithstanding, many of us still believe that outstanding goodness is a kind of armor, that virtue, seen plain and bare, gives pause to criminality. But perhaps it is the other way around.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“Death could drop from the dark
As easily as song—
But song only dropped,”
—Isaac Rosenberg (1890–1918)
