Music Publishers Society

Famous quotes containing the words music, publishers and/or society:

    “So gladly, from the songs of modern speech
    Men turn, and see the stars, and feel the free
    Shrill wind beyond the close of heavy flowers,
    And through the music of the languid hours,
    They hear like ocean on a western beach
    The surge and thunder of the Odyssey.”
    —Andrew Lang (1844–1912)

    “Do they [the publishers of Murphy] not understand that if the book is slightly obscure it is because it is a compression and that to compress it further can only make it more obscure?”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    “There are a great many men valued in society who have nothing to recommend them but serviceable vices.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
