Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or numbers:

    “Each child has his own individual expressions to offer to the world. That expression can take many forms, from artistic interests, a way of thinking, athletic activities, a particular style of dressing, musical talents, different hobbies, etc. Our job is to join our children in discovering who they are.”
    —Stephanie Martson (20th century)

    “And when all bodies meet
    In Lethe to be drowned,
    Then only numbers sweet
    With endless life are crowned.”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
