Famous quotes containing the words years, classical, tapestry, music and/or words:

    I see the callus on his sole,
    The disappearing last of him
    And of his race starvation slim,
    Oh, years ago—ten thousand years.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The basic difference between classical music and jazz is that in the former the music is always greater than its performance—Beethoven’s Violin Concerto, for instance, is always greater than its performance—whereas the way jazz is performed is always more important than what is being performed.
    André Previn (b. 1929)

    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    We may live without poetry, music and art;
    We may live without conscience, and live without heart;
    We may live without friends; we may live without books;
    But civilized man cannot live without cooks.
    Owen Meredith (1831–1891)

    Sir, I love you more than words can wield the matter,
    Dearer than eyesight, space, and liberty,
    Beyond what can be valued, rich or rare,
    No less than life, with grace, health, beauty, honor;
    As much as child e’er loved, or father found,
    A love that makes breath poor and speech unable.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
