Bridget Sloan - Floor Music

Famous quotes containing the words floor and/or music:

“Because humans are not alone in exhibiting such behavior—bees stockpile royal jelly, birds feather their nests, mice shred paper—it’s possible that a pregnant woman who scrubs her house from floor to ceiling [just before her baby is born] is responding to a biological imperative . . . . Of course there are those who believe that . . . the burst of energy that propels a pregnant woman to clean her house is a perfectly natural response to their mother’s impending visit.”
—Mary Arrigo (20th century)

“Always, however brutal an age may actually have been, its style transmits its music only.”
—André Malraux (1901–1976)
