Loud

Famous quotes containing the word loud:

    “The square dance fiddler’s first concern is to carry a tune, but he must carry it loud enough to be heard over the noise of stamping feet, the cries of the “caller,” and the shouts of the dancers. When he fiddles, he “fiddles all over”; feet, hands, knees, head, and eyes are all busy.”
    —State of Oklahoma, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “And everybody to the saddest
    Laughed the loud laugh the big laugh at the little.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “The sound of a kiss is not so loud as that of a cannon, but its echo lasts a great deal longer.”
    —Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
