Century Music

Famous quotes containing the words century and/or music:

    Whoever, fleeing marriage and the sorrows that women cause, does not wish to wed comes to a deadly old age.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    The sound of tireless voices is the price we pay for the right to hear the music of our own opinions. But there is also, it seems to me, a moment at which democracy must prove its capacity to act. Every man has a right to be heard; but no man has the right to strangle democracy with a single set of vocal chords.
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
