Famous quotes containing the words traditional, folk and/or music:

    “The traditional American husband and father had the responsibilities—and the privileges—of playing the role of primary provider. Sharing that role is not easy. To yield exclusive access to the role is to surrender some of the potential for fulfilling the hero fantasy—a fantasy that appeals to us all. The loss is far from trivial.”
    —Faye J. Crosby (20th century)

    “Babies are beautiful, wonderful, exciting, enchanting, extraordinary little creatures—who grow up into ordinary folk like us.”
    —Doris Dyson. quoted in What Is a Baby?, By Richard and Helen Exley.

    “The music in my heart I bore,
    Long after it was heard no more.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
