Music is the universal language of mankind.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Outre-Mer: A Pilgrimage Beyond the Sea.
You just pick a chord, go twang, and you've got music.
Sid Vicious
If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.
That strain again! it had a dying fall:
O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound
That breathes upon a bank of violets,
Stealing and giving odour!
William Shakespeare
Music is the poetry of the air.
Jean Paul Richter
If the King loves music, it is well with the land.
Mencius

life.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Hell is full of musical amateurs: music is the brandy of the

John Dryden
I play the notes as they are written, but it is God who makes
the music.
Johann Sebastian Bach
Music is forever; music should grow and mature with you,
following you right on up until you die.
Paul Simon
If I can write the songs of the nations, I don't care who
writes the laws.
Plato
You can't go to the store and buy a good ear and rhythm.
Les Paul
Music is what life sounds like.
Eric Olson
There's music in the sighing of a reed;
There's music in the gushing of a rill;
There's music in all things, if men had ears:
Their earth is but an echo of the spheres.
Lord Byron
We know an age more vividly through its music than through
its historians.
Rosanne Ambrose-Brown
Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it
is impossible to be silent.
Victor Hugo
My idea is that there is music in the air, music all around
us; the world is full of it, and you simply take as much as
you require.
Edward Elgar
Music is moonlight in the gloomy night of life.
Jean Paul Richter
When words leave off, music begins.
Heinrich Heine
He who sings scares away his woes.
Cervantes
Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music.
Ronald Reagan
Music hath charms to soothe a savage breast,
To soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak.
William Congreve
The Mourning Bride.
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence.
Robert Fripp
There is sweet music here that softer falls
Than petals from blown roses on the grass,
Or night-dews on still waters between walls
Of shadowy granite, in a gleaming pass;
Music that gentlier on the spirit lies,
Than tired eyelids upon tired eyes;
Music that brings sweet sleep down from the blissful skies.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Song of the Lotus Eaters.
Country music is three chords and the truth.
Harlan Howard
Music expresses feeling and thought, without language; it
was below and before speech, and it is above and beyond all
words.
Robert G. Ingersoll
The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils.
William Shakespeare
Music is a friend of labor for it lightens the task by refreshing
the nerves and spirit of the worker.
William Green
Music is the medicine of the breaking heart.
Leigh Hunt
Music speaks of Platonic truth - the ideal river rather than
the polluted reality, love as we dream it rather than we experience
it, grief noble and uplifting rather than our distracted weeping.
It is necessary to our survival and our sanity.
Pam Brown
Are we not formed, as notes of music are,
For one another, though dissimilar?
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Education in music is most sovereign because more than anything
else rhythm and harmony find their way to the innermost soul
and take strongest hold upon it.
Plato
Music produces a kind of pleasure which human nature cannot
do without.
Confucius
Music is the art of the prophets, the only art that calms
the agitations of the soul.
Martin Luther
Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
