Famous quotes containing the words music and/or educators:

    “It was a poetic recreation to watch those distant sails steering for half-fabulous ports, whose very names are a mysterious music to our ears.... It is remarkable that men do not sail the sea with more expectation. Nothing was ever accomplished in a prosaic mood.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The great want of our race is perfect educators to train new-born minds, who are infallible teachers of what is right and true.”
    —Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
