"Each building stands there like a dumbfounded fool with wide-open mouth, and sends forth the glare of brass trumpets and the whining grumble of orchestrations. Inside is a cloud of smoke and the dark figures of the people...But no human voice is heard. The monotonous hissing of the arc lights fills the air, the sounds of music, the cheap notes of the orchestrations...All these sounds mingle in an importunate hum, as of some thick, taut chord. And if the human voice breaks into this ceaseless resonance, it is like a frightened whisper." -Maxim Gorky
