Volume Quotations
Extreme volume in music very often disguises a lack of actually important content. Michael T. Thomas When a system is considered in two different states, the difference in volume or in any other property, between the two states, depends solely upon those states themselves and not upon the manner in which the system may pass from one state to the other. Rudolf Arnheim I took five years on the first volume, five years on the second volume, and ten years on the third volume. Shelby Foote I like to think of the senses as having a volume control in the brain. The volume turns up on all the other senses when you lose one. David Mason When you start with a portrait and search for a pure form, a clear volume, through successive eliminations, you arrive inevitably at the egg. Likewise, starting with the egg and following the same process in reverse, one finishes with the portrait. Pablo Picasso |
