And then, of course, most potters, they go in for earth tones and subdued things, and I like color.
Beatrice Wood
At Bloomington, Indiana, I was invited to listen to music written in quarter tones for four harps and voices. I had to go out to be sick.
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf
Fantasy is an exercise bicycle for the mind. It might not take you anywhere, but it tones up the muscles that can. Of course, I could be wrong.
Terry Pratchett
I'm not good enough to be playin' much acoustic guitar onstage. Man, you gotta get so right; I mean, the tones, the feel, the sound. Plus, acoustic blues guitar is just that much harder on the fingers.
Johnny Winter
If Bill jumps into something that relies on a lot of cymbals, I'll jump into something that relies on a lot of skin sounds; if he goes into metal tones, I'll go into wood, and so on. I basically play in his holes.
Pat Mastelotto
If whiteness were of no particular advantage, then having a fuller color wheel of skin tones would be purely a matter of celebration. But whiteness - just a drop of it - does still carry privilege. You learn that very young in America.
Eric Liu
It is no use speaking in soft, gentle tones if everyone else is shouting.
Joseph Priestley
It was as if all of the happiness, all of the magic of this blissful hour had flowed together into these stirring, bittersweet tones and flowed away, becoming temporal and transitory once more.
Herman Hesse
Love in all eight tones and all five semitones of the word's full octave.
Stephen Fry
Male and female gossip also sounds different, as women use more animated tones, more detail and more feedback.
Kate Fox
Parents should conduct their arguments in quiet, respectful tones, but in a foreign language. You'd be surprised what an inducement that is to the education of children.
Judith Martin
Shadow is a colour as light is, but less brilliant; light and shadow are only the relation of two tones.
Paul Cezanne
Softly the loud peal dies, In passing winds it drowns, But breathes, like perfect joys, Tender tones.
Frederick Tennyson
The best of a book is not the thought which it contains, but the thought which it suggests; just as the charm of music dwells not in the tones but in the echoes of our hearts.
John Greenleaf Whittier
The tones of gray, pale turquoise and pink will prevail.
Christian Dior
The voices on the record, that was trying to treat my voice like guitar players treat guitar tones.
Gary Cherone
There are only twelve tones and they need to be treated carefully.
Paul Hindemith
Tones sound, and roar and storm about me until I have set them down in notes.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Training gives us an outlet for suppressed energies created by stress and thus tones the spirit just as exercise conditions the body.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
When I was on the air a lot my throat and vocal chords got tired. If you don't vary your tones you can't get pretty tired of your own voice.
Alan Ladd
