Famous quotes containing the words chamber, music and/or string:

    “The fate of the country does not depend on how you vote at the polls,—the worst man is as strong as the best at that game; it does not depend on what kind of paper you drop into the ballot- box once a year, but on what kind of a man you drop from your chamber into the street every morning.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “This music crept by me upon the waters,
    Allaying both their fury and my passion
    With its sweet air; thence have I followed it,
    Or it hath drawn me rather.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “First you find a little thread, a little thread leads you to a string, and the string leads you to a rope. And from the rope you hang by the ... neck.”
    —A.I. (Albert Isaac)
