Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or composers:

—For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“More significant than the fact that poets write abstrusely, painters paint abstractly, and composers compose unintelligible music is that people should admire what they cannot understand; indeed, admire that which has no meaning or principle.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
