Tune

Famous quotes containing the word tune:

    But since Thy loud-tongu’d Blood demands Supplies,
    More from BriareusHands, than Argus Eyes,
    I’ll tune Thy Elegies to Trumpet-sounds,
    And write Thy Epitaph in Blood and Wounds!
    —James Graham Marquess of Montrose (1612–1650)

    Hortensio. Madam, my instrument’s in tune.
    Bianca. Let’s hear. O fie, the treble jars.
    Lucentio. Spit in the hole, man, and tune again.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Refuse them!
    If we too miss out, don’t create our lives,
    invent or deeds, do them, dance
    a tune with our own feet,
    we shall thirst in Hades,
    in the blood of our children.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
