Famous quotes containing the words century, concert and/or dance:

    But countless plagues wander among men; for earth is full of evils, and the sea is full.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    Proportion ... You can’t help thinking about it in these London streets, where it doesn’t exist.... It’s like listening to a symphony of cats to walk along them. Senseless discords and a horrible disorder all the way.... A concert of Brobdingnagian cats. Order has been turned into a disgusting chaos. We need no barbarians from outside; they’re on the premises, all the time.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    At the extreme north, the voyagers are obliged to dance and act plays for employment.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
