Loud

Famous quotes containing the word loud:

“Who
Are you
Who is born
In the next room
So loud to my own
That I can hear the womb
Opening and the dark run...?”

“Mind not the old man beseeching the young man;
Let not the child’s voice be heard, nor the mother’s entreaties;
Make even the trestles to shake the dead, where they lie awaiting
the hearses,
So strong you thump, O terrible drums—so loud you bugles blow.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
