Famous quotes containing the words cast and/or notes:

    Why need Christians be still intolerant and superstitious? The simple-minded sailors were unwilling to cast overboard Jonah at his own request.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    If the heart of a man is deprest with cares,
    The mist is dispell’d when a woman appears;
    Like the notes of a fiddle, she sweetly, sweetly
    Raises the spirits, and charms our ears.
    John Gay (1685–1732)
