Famous quotes containing the words classical and/or music:

    “Against classical philosophy: thinking about eternity or the immensity of the universe does not lessen my unhappiness.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Franceska: I was happy in the life I built up for myself. I put a fine high wall of music around me and nothing could touch me. I was safe and secure. And then you had to come along and knock it all down and I hate you for that.
    Maxwell: On the contrary, you love me.”
    —Muriel Box (b. 1905)
