Sound Systems

Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or systems:

    “There is a sound of music echoing
    Through the open door
    And in the field there is
    Another sound tinkling in the cotton:
    Chains of bondmen dragging on the ground.”
    —Arna Bontemps (1902–1973)

    “People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)
