Spit/music

Famous quotes containing the words spit and/or music:

“This is not a book. This is libel, slander, defamation of character. This is not a book, in the ordinary sense of the word. No, this is a prolonged insult, a gob of spit in the face of Art, a kick in the pants to God, Man, Destiny, Time, Love, Beauty ... what you will. I am going to sing for you, a little off key perhaps, but I will sing.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)

“Morning work! By the blushes of Aurora and the music of Memnon, what should be man’s morning work in this world?”
