Meadow Brook Music

Famous quotes containing the words meadow, brook and/or music:

“I grow savager and savager every day, as if fed on raw meat, and my tameness is only the repose of untamableness. I dream of looking abroad summer and winter, with free gaze, from some mountain-side,... to be nature looking into nature with such easy sympathy as the blue-eyed grass in the meadow looks in the face of the sky. From some such recess I would put forth sublime thoughts daily, as the plant puts forth leaves.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The brook was thrown
Deep in a sewer dungeon under stone
In fetid darkness still to live and run....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“The music is in minors.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
