Famous quotes containing the words italian and/or music:

    “If the study of his images
    Is the study of man, this image of Saturday,
    This Italian symbol, this Southern landscape, is like
    A waking, as in images we awake,
    Within the very object that we seek,
    Participants of its being.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Let music sound while he doth make his choice;
    Then if he lose he makes a swan-like end,
    Fading in music.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
