Musical Elements

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or elements:

    There was something refreshingly and wildly musical to my ears in the very name of the white man’s canoe, reminding me of Charlevoix and Canadian Voyageurs. The batteau is a sort of mongrel between the canoe and the boat, a fur-trader’s boat.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    In spite of all their kind some elements of worth
    With difficulty persist here and there on earth.
