Famous quotes containing the word sounds:

    Then sounds the voice of One who like the heart of man
    Was once a child who among beasts has lain—

    The words of the prophets
    Are written on the subway walls
    And tenement halls
    And whispered in the sounds of silence.
    Paul Simon (b. 1941)

    A flutist who is moved to tears by his own performance will soon make the listeners laugh because of the sounds that he produces.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
