Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “If I could believe the Quakers banned music because church music is so damn bad, I should view them with approval.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “Orpheus with his lute made trees
    And the mountain tops that freeze
    Bow themselves when he did sing.
    To his music plants and flowers
    Ever sprung, as sun and showers
    There had made a lasting spring.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
