Famous quotes containing the word noise:

    It is as real
    as splinters stuck in your ear. The noise we steal
    is half a bell. And outside cars whisk by on the suburban street
    and are there and are true.
    What else is this, this intricate shape of air?
    calling me, calling you.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I wonder about the trees.
    Why do we wish to bear
    Forever the noise of these
    More than another noise
    So close to our dwelling place?
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I throw myself down in my chamber, and I call in, and invite God, and his Angels thither, and when they are there, I neglect God and his Angels, for the noise of a fly, for the rattling of a coach, for the whining of a door.
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
