Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or recording:
“Knighterrantry is a most chuckleheaded trade, and it is tedious hard work, too, but I begin to see that there is money in it, after all, if you have luck. Not that I would ever engage in it, as a business, for I wouldnt. No sound and legitimate business can be established on a basis of speculation. A successful whirl in the knighterrantry linenow what is it when you blow away the nonsense and come down to the cold facts? Its just a corner in pork, thats all.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
“He shall not die, by G, cried my uncle Toby.
MThe ACCUSING SPIRIT which flew up to heavens chancery with the oath, blushd as he gave it in;and the RECORDING ANGEL as he wrote it down, droppd a tear upon the word, and blotted it out for ever.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
