Island Sound

Famous quotes containing the words island and/or sound:

    “The island dreams under the dawn
    And great boughs drop tranquillity;
    The peahens dance on a smooth lawn,
    A parrot sways upon a tree,
    Raging at his own image in the enamelled sea.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “It’s precisely the disappointing stories, which have no proper ending and therefore no proper meaning, that sound true to life.”
    —Max Frisch (1911–1991)
