Drum Music

Famous quotes containing the words drum and/or music:

    Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note,
    As his corse to the rampart we hurried;
    Charles Wolfe (1791–1823)

    I fear I agree with your friend in not liking all sermons. Some of them, one has to confess, are rubbish: but then I release my attention from the preacher, and go ahead in any line of thought he may have started: and his after-eloquence acts as a kind of accompaniment—like music while one is reading poetry, which often, to me, adds to the effect.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
