Famous quotes containing the words country and/or music:

    “And we may be led, then, upward through more
    Powerful forms of poetry, past columns
    With peeling posters on them, to the country of indifference.
    Meanwhile if the swell diapasons, blooms
    Unhappily and too soon, the little people are nonetheless real.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Good music is very close to primitive language.”
    —Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
