Famous quotes containing the words radio and/or silence:

    ... the ... radio station played a Chopin polonaise. On all the following days news bulletins were prefaced by Chopin—preludes, etudes, waltzes, mazurkas. The war became for me a victory, known in advance, Chopin over Hitler.
    Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

    Do you like me?
    How absurd!
    What’s a question like that?
    What’s a silence like that?
    And what am I hanging around for,
    riddled with what his silence said?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
