Famous quotes containing the word sounds:
“half-way up the hill, I see the Past
Lying beneath me with its sounds and sights,—
A city in the twilight dim and vast,
With smoking roofs, soft bells, and gleaming lights,—
And hear above me on the autumnal blast
The cataract of Death far thundering from the heights.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
“I suppose any note, no matter how sour, sounds like a song if you hold onto it long enough.”
—Dewitt Bodeen (1908–1988)
“I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
