Famous quotes containing the word music:

    It is from the blues that all that may be called American music derives its most distinctive character.
    James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)

    I defied the machinery to make me its slave. Its incessant discords could not drown the music of my thoughts if I would let them fly high enough.
    Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)

    La la la, Oh music swims back to me
    and I can feel the tune they played
    the night they left me
    in this private institution on a hill.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
