Reese/music

Famous quotes containing the words reese and/or music:

    Loose me from tears, and make me see aright
    How each hath back what once he stayed to weep;
    Homer his sight, David his little lad!
    —Lizette Woodworth Reese (1856–1935)

    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)
