Some Musical Quotes From The Greats, Enjoy!!! by Nobody: 9:38am On Aug 16, 2012 |
A painter paints pictures on canvas. But musicians paint their pictures on silence. ~Leopold Stokowski Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. ~Berthold Auerbach All deep things are song. It seems somehow the very central essence of us, song; as if all the rest were but wrappages and hulls! ~Thomas Carlyle If the King loves music, it is well with the land. ~Mencius Without music life would be a mistake. ~Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche Take a music bath once or twice a week for a few seasons. You will find it is to the soul what a water bath is to the body. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music. ~Gustav Mahler Why waste money on psychotherapy when you can listen to the B Minor Mass? ~Michael Torke And the night shall be filled with music, And the cares that infest the day Shall fold their tents like the Arabs And as silently steal away. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Day Is Done He who sings scares away his woes. ~Cervantes Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness. ~Maya Angelou, Gather Together in My Name Were it not for music, we might in these days say, the Beautiful is dead. ~Benjamin Disraeli |

more quotes: Music is what feelings sound like. ~Author Unknown 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 Musical compositions, it should be remembered, do not inhabit certain countries, certain museums, like paintings and statues. The Mozart Quintet is not shut up in Salzburg: I have it in my pocket. ~Henri Rabaud Music is the poetry of the air. ~Richter If I were to begin life again, I would devote it to music. It is the only cheap and unpunished rapture upon earth. Sydney Smith There is nothing in the world so much like prayer as music is. ~William P. Merrill If in the after life there is not music, we will have to import it. ~Doménico Cieri Estrada Men profess to be lovers of music, but for the most part they give no evidence in their opinions and lives that they have heard it. ~Henry David Thoreau Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life. ~Ludwig van Beethoven I have my own particular sorrows, loves, delights; and you have yours. But sorrow, gladness, yearning, hope, love, belong to all of us, in all times and in all places. Music is the only means whereby we feel these emotions in their universality. ~H.A. Overstreet 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 Alas for those that never sing, But die with all their music in them! ~Oliver Wendell Holmes |
