Famous quotes containing the words sounds, true and/or stories:

    It is never the thing but the version of the thing:
    The fragrance of the woman not her self,
    Her self in her manner not the solid block,
    The day in its color not perpending time,
    Time in its weather, our most sovereign lord,
    The weather in words and words in sounds of sound.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The humblest painter is a true scholar; and the best of scholars—the scholar of nature.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    Though Margery is stricken dumb
    If thrown in Madge’s way,
    We three make up a solitude;
    For none alive to-day
    Can know the stories that we know
    Or say the things we say....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
