Real Sound

Famous quotes containing the words real and/or sound:

“Everybody is so talented nowadays that the only people I care to honour as deserving real distinction are those who remain in obscurity.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

“For sounds in winter nights, and often in winter days, I heard the forlorn but melodious note of a hooting owl indefinitely far; such a sound as the frozen earth would yield if struck with a suitable plectrum, the very lingua vernacula of Walden Wood, and quite familiar to me at last, though I never saw the bird while it was making it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
