Music Quotes (page 101)

Sometimes this fellow's music was like little colored pieces of crystal candy, and other times it was the softest, saddest thing she had ever imagined about. Carson McCullers
John Keats quote: "Where are the songs of Spring? Aye, where are they? Think not..."
Where are the songs of Spring? Aye, where are they? Think not of them; thou has thy music too. John Keats
It's impossible for me to say one word about all that music has meant to me in my life. How, then, can I hope to be understood? Ludwig Wittgenstein
In the waters there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than any substance else that is in this Earth; and many […] hearken still unsated to the voice of the Sea, and yet know not for what they listen. J. R. R. Tolkien
Madeleine L'Engle quote: "We turn to stories and pictures and music because they show us..."
We turn to stories and pictures and music because they show us who and what and why we are. Madeleine L'Engle
William Shakespeare quote: "I will play the swan. And die in music."
I will play the swan. And die in music. William Shakespeare
I had become a kind of information magpie, gathering to myself all manner of shiny scraps of fact and hokum and books and art-history and politics and music and film, and developing, too, a certain skill in manipulating and arranging these pitiful shards so that they glittered and caught the light. Fool's gold, or priceless nuggets mined from my singular childhood's rich bohemian seam? I leave it to others to decide. Salman Rushdie
nothing she didor saidwas quitewhat she meantbut still her lifecould be called a monumentshaped in a slantof available lightand set to the movementof possible music Carol Shields
It seems to me in retrospect that the department stores and the dime stores did an excellent job of extending the 'sacred space' of Christmas in those days. And I sometimes wonder whether for people of no religion, this might have been the only sacred space they knew. When people rail now against the 'commercial nature of Christmas,' I'm always conflicted an unable to respond. Because I think those who would banish commercialism from the holiday fail to understand how precious and comforting... Anne Rice
Bob Dylan quote: "I just don't hear anyone else making the music I'm making in..."
I just don't hear anyone else making the music I'm making in my head, so I'll have to do it myself. Bob Dylan
Passion is passion. It's the excitement between the tedious spaces, and it doesn't matter where it's directed...It can be coins or sports or politics or horses or music or faith...the saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all. Nicholas Sparks
He was bored now when Emma suddenly began to sob on his breast; and his heart, like the people who can only stand a certain amount of music, became drowsy through indifference to the vibrations of a love whose subtleties he could no longer distinguish. Gustave Flaubert
I'd like to see North America become a dry, sunny, sandy region inhabited mainly by lizards, buzzards and a modest human population - about 25 million would be plenty - of pastoralists and prospectors (prospecting for truth), gathering once a year in the ruins of ancient, mysterious cities for great ceremonies of music, art, dance, poetry, joy, faith and renewal. That's my dream of the American future. Like most such dreams, it will probably come true. That is why I'm still an optimist. Edward Abbey
We shared a piece of Poncho's apple pie, and I told Poncho about PureTone. Like all serious musicians, he is depressed by the quality of sound the people's music id delivered in today. That is the impression I have gotten from every Musician I have met. Everyone. After he heard PureTone, Ben Bourdon, one of Ben Young's caregivers asked me if I was making war on Apple. I said, "No. I'm waging heavy peace. Neil Young
Frank Zappa quote: "The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of..."
The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of serious music is much worse. Frank Zappa
