Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or music:

    “Amplification is the vice of modern oratory. It is an insult to an assembly of reasonable men, disgusting and revolting instead of persuading. Speeches measured by the hour, die by the hour.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “This music crept by me upon the waters,
    Allaying both their fury and my passion
    With its sweet air; thence have I followed it,
    Or it hath drawn me rather.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
