Famous quotes containing the words noise and/or headphones:

    “There is something terribly wrong with a culture inebriated by noise and gregariousness.”

    “At length to hospital
    This man was limited,
    Where screens leant on the wall
    And idle headphones hung.
    Since he would soon be dead
    They let his wife come along
    And pour out tea, each day.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
