Tones Quotes : pic 001044824
Perhaps on some quiet night the tremor of far-off drums, sinking, swelling, a tremor vast, faint; a sound weird, appealing, suggestive and wild - and perhaps with as profound a meaning as the sound of bells in a Christian country.

Softly the loud peal dies, In passing winds it drowns, But breathes, like perfect joys, Tender tones.

Tones Quotes : pic 001249331
The task is to investigate speech sounds in relation to the meanings with which they are invested, i.e., sounds viewed as signifiers, and above all to throw light on the structure of the relation between sounds and meaning.
Tones Quotes : pic 001712393

Tones Quotes : pic 000821442
How soft the music of those village bells, Falling at interval upon the ear In cadence sweet; now dying all away, Now pealing loud again, and louder still, Clear and sonorous, as the gale comes on! With easy force it opens all the cells Where Memory slept.
Tones Quotes : pic 000136581
A few days ago I walked along the edge of the lake and was treated to the crunch and rustle of leaves with each step I made. The acoustics of this season are different and all sounds, no matter how hushed, are as crisp as autumn air.

Tones Quotes : pic 001102862
Some easy-listening Muzak came onto the phone. I held it away from my ear. If you listened close for long, it gave you cavities.
Tones Quotes : pic 000613122
Still, small heavenly voices penetrate the heart with their gentle, convincing declarations ... Most often, hope, encouragement, and direction come from a soft, piercing voice. Small voices are heard only by those who are willing to listen.
Tones Quotes : pic 001276345
Like many musicians, I can hear the weight in the sound. Sound is matter. We speak of the colour of an instrument, of transparency ... We can demand more sombre or lighter colours, deeper playing and singing, heavier or lighter sound. And manipulating those means is like creating a painting.

Your voices break and falter in the darkness, Break, falter, and are still.

loud laughter, phones ringing and the smell
Tones Quotes : pic 000456522

Tones Quotes : pic 000475019
Tenors get women by the score.
Tones Quotes : pic 001585547
The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody.
Tones Quotes : pic 000536997
Sometimes she heard her father's watch chime: a light sound, as light as a smile. It always soothed her music. When Kestrel played for him, the melody ran sweet, sheer, and strong.

We must break out of this limited circle of sounds and conquer the infinite variety of noise-sounds.

You can speak loudly with deep silence

Tones Quotes : pic 001272844
And now you try
Your handful of notes;
The clear vowels rise like balloons.
Tones Quotes : pic 000741311
Yet, the ear it fully knows,
By the twanging
And the clanging,
How the danger ebbs and flows;
Yet, the ear distinctly tells,
In the jangling
And the wrangling,
How the danger sinks and swells,
By the sinking or the swelling in the anger of the bells.
Tones Quotes : pic 001430671

I love thee as I love the tone
Of some soft-breathing flute
Whose soul is wak'd for me alone,
When all beside is mute.
Tones Quotes : pic 001725027
Silence is so freaking loud

Tones Quotes : pic 001216267
The isle is full of noises,
Sounds, and sweet airs that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again.
Tones Quotes : pic 001063517
The local-tone is the intrinsic value of a thing - excluding any effects of light. The local-tone of a common pearl is very nearly white; that of a lump of coal, nearly black.
Tones Quotes : pic 000577063
I'm literally tone-deaf with singing. It's unreal.
Tones Quotes : pic 000889872
The voice so sweet, the words so fair, As some soft chime had stroked the air; And though the sound had parted thence, Still left an echo in the sense.
Tones Quotes : pic 001838718
These were loud sounds, which were, therefore, public sounds, which, in turn, meant they were everyone's problem and, therefore, not mine. But small sounds were nearby and suggested such things as stealth betrayed, and were, therefore, pressing and personal.
Tones Quotes : pic 000648958
When we talk, answer questions, I'm addressing your tonal. I'm teaching you a way or a series of ways of dealing with the world.

Tones Quotes : pic 001582679
It reminded him of the cacophony of an orchestra as it tuned its instruments: dissonance, suddenly resolving into harmony. It was the rumble, not of thunder, but its low, rolling precursor, trembling on the horizon.
Tones Quotes : pic 001334025
The sounds of silence are a dim recollection now, like mystery, privacy and paying attention to one thing - or one person - at a time.
Tones Quotes : pic 001004317
Inside the silence is a melody.
Tones Quotes : pic 001083288
Soundwaves. It's the difference between one stillness and another stillness.
Tones Quotes : pic 000259270
Sang in tones of deep emotion Songs of love and songs of longing.
Tones Quotes : pic 001865653
When you close to me, my heart has created a vibration of the precise "Carrier frequency" to send all deep information about me to you
Tones Quotes : pic 000154457
The velvet voice of her soul.
Tones Quotes : pic 001062913
Every body has their taste in noises as well as other matters; and sounds are quite innoxious, or most distressing, by their sort rather than their quantity.
Tones Quotes : pic 001204173
Silence which in breaking up at dawn
will speak differently.
Tones Quotes : pic 000408106

Laughter with no voice
Happiness lost without being found
Making love with no noise

the wasps buzz, the saucepans sing,
the waterfall enumerates the deeds of the dew ...
Tones Quotes : pic 000179531
What is the sound of an eighty-nine-year-old heart breaking?
Tones Quotes : pic 000894825

Tones Quotes : pic 000949731
Those evening bells! those evening bells! How many a tale their music tells Of youth and home, and that sweet time When last I heard their soothing chime!
Tones Quotes : pic 001663372
SILENCE. The most loaded sound in human history.
Tones Quotes : pic 001477310
Often, I can scarcely hear any one speaking to me; the tones yes, but not the actual words; yet as soon as any one shouts, it is unbearable. What will come of all this, heaven only knows!
Tones Quotes : pic 001593574
Humbledrum farted mournfully, three distinct notes.
Tones Quotes : pic 001224475
The rumble of a subway train,
the rattle of the taxis.
Tones Quotes : pic 001133499
Quiet is the new loud.
