Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “From where Pan’s cavern is
    Intolerable music falls.
    Foul goat-head, brutal arm appear,
    Belly, shoulder, bum,
    Flash fishlike; nymphs and satyrs
    Copulate in the foam.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Great music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and leaves the memory with difficulty. Magical music never leaves the memory.”
    —Thomas Beecham (1879–1961)

    “Westminster Abbey is nature crystallized into a conventional form by man, with his sorrows, his joys, his failures, and his seeking for the Great Spirit. It is a frozen requiem, with a nation’s prayer ever in dumb music ascending.”
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
