Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “If music be the food of love, play on,
    Give me excess of it that, surfeiting,
    The appetite may sicken and so die.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “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)

    “He turned out to belong to the type of publisher who dreams of becoming a male muse to his author, and our brief conjunction ended abruptly upon his suggesting I replace chess by music and make Luzhin a demented violinist.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
