Famous quotes containing the word composition:

    The proposed Constitution ... is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both.

    The composition of a tragedy requires testicles.
    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

    If I don’t write to empty my mind, I go mad. As to that regular, uninterrupted love of writing ... I do not understand it. I feel it as a torture, which I must get rid of, but never as a pleasure. On the contrary, I think composition a great pain.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
