Famous quotes containing the word songs:

    “And songs climb out of the flames of the near campfires,
    Pale, pastel things exquisite in their frailness
    With a note or two to indicate it isn’t lost,
    On them at least. The songs decorate our notion of the world
    And mark its limits, like a frieze of soap-bubbles.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “O past! O happy life! O songs of joy!
    In the air, in the woods, over fields,
    Loved! loved! loved! loved! loved!
    But my mate no more, no more with me!
    We two together no more.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “The hills are alive with the sound of music, with songs they have sung for a thousand years.”
    —Oscar Hammerstein II (1895–1960)
