Sounds

Famous quotes containing the word sounds:

    The lovely shapes and sounds intelligible
    Of that eternal language, which thy God
    Utters, who from eternity doth teach
    Himself in all, and all things in himself.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Newsmen believe that news is a tacitly acknowledged fourth branch of the federal system. This is why most news about government sounds as if it were federally mandated—serious, bulky and blandly worthwhile, like a high-fiber diet set in type.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    I that so long
    Was Nothing from Eternity,
    Did little think such Joys as Ear and Tongue
    To celebrate or see:
    Such Sounds to hear, such Hands to feel, such Feet,
    Such Eyes and Objects, on the Ground to meet.
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
