Famous quotes containing the words band, fountains and/or garden:

    The band waked me with a serenade. How they improve! A fine band and what a life in a regiment! Their music is better than food and clothing to give spirit to the men.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Sleep is a reconciling,
    A rest that peace begets.
    —Unknown. Weep You No More, Sad Fountains (l. 10–11)

    We are frequently told that talents and genius are natural gifts; and so indeed they are, to the same extent that the productions of the garden and the field are natural gifts.
    U. R., U.S. women’s magazine contributor. American Ladies Magazine, pp. 317-19 (June, 1829)
