Sing

Famous quotes containing the word sing:

“A song is no song unless the circumstance is free and fine. If a singer sing from a sense of duty or from seeing no way to escape, I had rather have none. Those only can sleep who do not care to sleep; and those only write or speak best who do not too much respect the writing or the speaking.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“She will sing the song that pleaseth you,
And on your eyelids crown the god of sleep,
Charming your blood with pleasing heaviness.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Yet to sing love,
love must first shatter us.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
