Famous quotes containing the words organ and/or fountain:

“And this mighty master of the organ of language, who knew its every stop and pipe, who could awaken at will the thin silver tones of its slenderest reeds or the solemn cadence of its deepest thunder, who could make it sing like a flute or roar like a cataract, he was born into a country without literature.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)

“From the very fountain of enchantment there arises a taste of bitterness to spread anguish amongst the flowers.”
