Tune

Famous quotes containing the word tune:

    When Satan makes impure verses, Allah sends a divine tune to cleanse them.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    But O, sick children of the world,
    Of all the many changing things
    In dreary dancing past us whirled,
    To the cracked tune that Chronos sings,
    Words alone are certain good.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    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)
