Sounds

Famous quotes containing the word sounds:

“I’m not the man to baulk at a low smell,
I’m not the man to insist on asphodel.
This sounds like a He-fellow, don’t you think?
It sounds like that. I belch, I bawl, I drink.”
—Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)

“When they sometimes
Come down the stairs at night and stand perplexed
Behind the door and headboard of the bed,
Brushing their chalky skull with chalky fingers,
With sounds like the dry rattling of a shutter,”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“A flutist who is moved to tears by his own performance will soon make the listeners laugh because of the sounds that he produces.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
