Famous quotes containing the word music:
“Words move, music moves
Only in time; but that which is only living
Can only die. Words, after speech, reach
Into the silence.”

Our mirth the music of division;
Our mothers’ wombs the tiring-houses be
Where we are dressed for this short comedy.”

Allaying both their fury and my passion
With its sweet air; thence have I followed it,
Or it hath drawn me rather.”
