Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or numbers:

    “That vast moth-eaten musical brocade
    Created to pretend we never die ...”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “He bundles every forkful in its place,
    And tags and numbers it for future reference,
    So he can find and easily dislodge it
    In the unloading. Silas does that well.
    He takes it out in bunches like birds’ nests.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
