Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or music:
“Kings govern by popular assemblies only when they cannot do without them.”
—Charles James Fox (1749–1806)
“But the dark changed to red, and torches shone,
And deafening music shook the leaves; a troop
Shouldered a litter with a wounded man,
Or smote upon the string and to the sound
Sang of the beast that gave the fatal wound.”
