Street Sounds

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or sounds:

    The last time I saw Paris
    Her heart was warm and gay,
    I heard the laughter of her heart in every street café.
    Oscar Hammerstein II (1895–1960)

    For sounds in winter nights, and often in winter days, I heard the forlorn but melodious note of a hooting owl indefinitely far; such a sound as the frozen earth would yield if struck with a suitable plectrum, the very lingua vernacula of Walden Wood, and quite familiar to me at last, though I never saw the bird while it was making it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
