Famous quotes containing the words country and/or music:

    That country is the richest which nourishes the greatest number of noble and happy human beings.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
    There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
    There is society where none intrudes
    By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
    I love not man the less, but nature more,
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
