Famous quotes containing the words universal, music and/or group:

    “I have all my life been on my guard against the information conveyed by the sense of hearing—it being one of my earliest observations, the universal inclination of humankind is to be led by the ears, and I am sometimes apt to imagine that they are given to men as they are to pitchers, purposely that they may be carried about by them.”
    —Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)

    “La la la, Oh music swims back to me
    and I can feel the tune they played
    the night they left me
    in this private institution on a hill.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Once it was a boat, quite wooden
    and with no business, no salt water under it
    and in need of some paint. It was no more
    than a group of boards. But you hoisted her, rigged her.
    She’s been elected.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
