A kiss can be a comma, a question mark or an exclamation point. That’s basic spelling that every woman ought to know. – Mistinguett, quoted in Theatre Arts, Volume39, Issue12, 1955

There is no element in which language resembles music more than in the punctuation marks…. Exclamation points are like silent cymbal clashes, question marks like musical upbeats, colons dominant seventh chords… – Theodor W. Adorno (1903–1969), “Punctuation Marks,” Notes to Literature, V
