Music Festival Held

Famous quotes containing the words music, festival and/or held:

    “Slow, slow, fresh fount, keep time with my salt tears;
    Yet slower yet, oh faintly gentle springs:
    List to the heavy part the music bears,
    “Woe weeps out her division when she sings.”
    Droop herbs and flowers;
    Fall grief in showers;
    “Our beauties are not ours”:
    Oh, I could still,
    Like melting snow upon some craggy hill,
    Drop, drop, drop, drop,
    Since nature’s pride is, now, a withered daffodil.”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    “The surest guide to the correctness of the path that women take is joy in the struggle. Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “you held me just as you must
    and of course we’re not married, we are a pair of scissors
    who come together to cut, without towels saying His. Hers.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
