Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or music:
“If they have a popular thought they have to go into a darkened room and lie down until it passes.”

“Orpheus with his lute made trees
And the mountain tops that freeze
Bow themselves when he did sing.
To his music plants and flowers
Ever sprung, as sun and showers
There had made a lasting spring.”
