Sound Sets

Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or sets:

    Blame but thyself that hast misdone,
    And well deserved to have blame;
    Change thou thy way so evil begun,
    And then my lute shall sound that same:
    But if till then my fingers play
    By thy desert their wonted way,
    Blame not my lute.
    Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    A continual feast of commendation is only to be obtained by merit or by wealth: many are therefore obliged to content themselves with single morsels, and recompense the infrequency of their enjoyment by excess and riot, whenever fortune sets the banquet before them.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
