Famous quotes containing the words music and/or hall:

    “All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it.”
    —Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    “Go where he will, the wise man is at home,
    His hearth the earth,—his hall the azure dome;
