How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank! Here will we sit and let the sounds of music Creep in our ears: soft stillness, and the night Becomes the touches of sweet harmony.
- quote by William Shakespeare
I am advised to give her music o' mornings; they say it will penetrate.
- quote by William Shakespeare
I can't sing. As a singist I am not a success. I am saddest when I sing. So are those who hear me. They are sadder even than I am.
- quote by Artemus Ward
I even think that, sentimentally, I am disposed to harmony. But organically I am incapable of a tune.
- quote by Charles Lamb
I'm saddest when I sing.
- quote by Thomas Haynes Bayly
I'm the sweetest sound in orchestra heard Yet in orchestra never have been.
- quote by William Wilberforce
If music and sweet poetry agree.
- quote by Richard Barnfield
If music be the food of love, play on; Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, The appetite may sicken, and so die. That strain again! it had a dying fall: O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound That breathes upon a bank of violets, Stealing and giving odour.
- quote by William Shakespeare
If the pulse of the patriot, soldier, or lover, Have throbb'd at our lay, 'tis thy glory alone; I was but as the wind, passing heedlessly over, And all the wild sweetness I wak'd was thy own.
- quote by Thomas Moore
If thou would'st have me sing and play As once I play'd and sung, First take this time-worn lute away, And bring one freshly strung.
- quote by Thomas Moore
