The sound of the loon might well be the most curious if not the most thrilling birdcall in nature.
Vaguely yodel-like, it is a comforting call...but it is also slightly frightening, slightly otherworldly.
The loon is the state bird of Minnesota. Its call is infinitely more interesting than the din of the other loons that Minnesota keeps in its legislature.

Strange that some of the most glorious sounds in the world should have come from a man Beethoven who in the end could hear no sound (except, perhaps, the awful cacophony of tinnitus).

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by. (Douglas Adams)

In the order of emotional content, I find sound more intense than either sight or touch. It seems to be where man has devoted so much creative effort to inspire others.

»That is exactly what I object to, Edmonia. If it did not sound harsh, I should say that I do not consider you a proper example for the young.«
This appeared to amuse her, which was the last thing he had anticipated. Her deep, thick laugh gushed out.
»Oh, they arenīt waiting for an example, « she replied.

Some years ago, I was invited to a party in Cologne by two American girls. Most of the guests were Americans, so we talked English all the time.
I was introduced to a boy called Steve, and I said to him, »You sound rather British, Steve.« His reply was, »That's because I am rather British.«

Explorers for hundreds of years hoped they would discover the Northwest Passage an all-water route leading from Europe to the Far East through the northern part of the Americas. Think how awkward that would be an ocean channel more than 3,000 miles long, snaking across the U.S. and/or Canada, making North Dakota and Saskatchewan into ports. Just so a bunch of spice merchants would have it easy!
They thought they'd found the Northwest Passage when they sailed into Puget Sound.
