Famous quotes containing the words longer and/or sing:
“To play is nothing but the imitative substitution of a pleasurable, superfluous and voluntary action for a serious, necessary, imperative and difficult one. At the cradle of play as well as of artistic activity there stood leisure, tedium entailed by increased spiritual mobility, a horror vacui, the need of letting forms no longer imprisoned move freely, of filling empty time with sequences of notes, empty space with sequences of form.”
—Max J. Friedländer (18671958)
“Mother and maiden
Was never none but she;
Well may such a lady
Goddes mother be.”
—Unknown. I Sing of a Maiden (l. 1720)
