Loud

Famous quotes containing the word loud:

    “And we talked of girls, and dropping bombs on Rome,

    Exhorting us to slaughter,”
    —Alun Lewis (1915–1944)

    “Make me a willow cabin at your gate,
    And call upon my soul within the house;
    Write loyal cantons of contemned love,
    And sing them loud even in the dead of night;
    Halloo your name to the reverberate hills,
    And make the babbling gossip of the air
    Cry out “Olivia!” O, you should not rest
    Between the elements of air and earth
    But you should pity me.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The loud laugh that spoke the vacant mind.”
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)
