Song Reached

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or reached:

    “And the song she was singing ever since
    In my ear sounds on:—
    “Stay at home, pretty bees, fly not hence!
    Mistress Mary is dead and gone!””
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    “For the writer, there is nothing quite like having someone say that he or she understands, that you have reached them and affected them with what you have written. It is the feeling early humans must have experienced when the firelight first overcame the darkness of the cave. It is the communal cooking pot, the Street, all over again. It is our need to know we are not alone.”
    —Virginia Hamilton (b. 1936)
