Primitive/music

Famous quotes containing the words primitive and/or music:

“The most primitive places left with us are the swamps, where the spruce still grows shaggy with usnea.”

“If this be love, to clothe me with dark thoughts,
Haunting untrodden paths to wail apart;
My pleasures horror, music tragic notes,
Tears in mine eyes and sorrow at my heart.
If this be love, to live a living death,
Then do I love and draw this weary breath.”
—Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
