Master Musicians

Famous quotes containing the words master and/or musicians:

    In the long run, only woman remains true to mankind’s foremost mission. Whatever she achieves, she achieves through herself, and alone. Man’s master is the—public.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    We stand in the tumult of a festival.
    What festival? This loud, disordered mooch?
    These hospitaliers? These brute-like guests?
    These musicians dubbing at a tragedy,
    A-dub, a-dub, which is made up of this:
    That there are no lines to speak? There is no play.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
