Song Choice

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or choice:

    I shall not sing a May song.
    A May song should be gay.
    I’ll wait until November
    And sing a song of gray.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    The question of place and climate is most closely related to the question of nutrition. Nobody is free to live everywhere; and whoever has to solve great problems that challenge all his strength actually has a very restricted choice in this matter. The influence of climate on our metabolism, its retardation, its acceleration, goes so far that a mistaken choice of place and climate can not only estrange a man from his task but can actually keep it from him: he never gets to see it.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
