Chamber Music Competition

Famous quotes containing the words chamber, music and/or competition:

Into the chamber behind the thought.”

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Competition has been shown to be useful up to a certain point and no further, but cooperation, which is the thing we must strive for today, begins where competition leaves off.”
