Famous quotes containing the word sounds:

    I’m not the man to baulk at a low smell,
    I’m not the man to insist on asphodel.
    This sounds like a He-fellow, don’t you think?
    It sounds like that. I belch, I bawl, I drink.
    Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)

    If there is a man white as marble
    Sits in a wood, in the greenest part,
    Brooding sounds of the images of death,
    So there is a man in black space
    Sits in nothing that we know,
    Brooding sounds of river noises....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The comedy of hollow sounds derives
    From truth and not from satire on our lives.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
