Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “But the dark changed to red, and torches shone,
    And deafening music shook the leaves; a troop
    Shouldered a litter with a wounded man,
    Or smote upon the string and to the sound
    Sang of the beast that gave the fatal wound.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Your remark that clams will lie quiet if music be played to them, was superfluous—entirely superfluous.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “There was never yet such a storm but it was Æolian music to a healthy and innocent ear.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
