Famous quotes containing the word music:

    If music be the food of love, play on,
    Give me excess of it that, surfeiting,
    The appetite may sicken and so die.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    We often feel sad in the presence of music without words; and often more than that in the presence of music without music.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    And this shall be for music when no one else is near,
    The fine song for singing, the rare song to hear!
    That only I remember, that only you admire,
    Of the broad road that stretches and the roadside fire.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
