Famous quotes containing the words country and/or music:

    “Strange and predatory and truly dangerous, car thieves and muggers—they seem to jeopardize all our cherished concepts, even our self-esteem, our property rights, our powers of love, our laws and pleasures. The only relationship we seem to have with them is scorn or bewilderment, but they belong somewhere on the dark prairies of a country that is in the throes of self-discovery.”
    —John Cheever (1912–1982)

    “Music, ho, music such as charmeth sleep!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
