Famous quotes containing the words popular, music and/or studies:
“But popular rage,
Hysterica passio dragged this quarry down.
None shared our guilt; nor did we play a part
Upon a painted stage when we devoured his heart.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“I used to be angry all the time and Id sit there weaving my anger. Now Im not angry. I sit there hearing the sounds outside, the sounds in the room, the sounds of the treadles and heddlesa music of my own making.”
—Bhakti Ziek (b. c. 1946)
“His life itself passes deeper in nature than the studies of the naturalist penetrate; himself a subject for the naturalist. The latter raises the moss and bark gently with his knife in search of insects; the former lays open logs to their core with his axe, and moss and bark fly far and wide. He gets his living by barking trees. Such a man has some right to fish, and I love to see nature carried out in him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
