Concert Flute

Famous quotes containing the words concert and/or flute:

    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)

    blow as he would, though it made a great noise,
    The flute would play only ‘The Protestant Boys’.
    —Unknown. The Old Orange Flute (l. 23–24)
