Music Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Music

1.
Music like religion, unconditionally brings in its train all the moral virtues to the heart it enters, even though that heart is not in the least worthy.
Jean Baptiste Montegut

2.
The trouble with music appreciation in general is that people are taught to have too much respect for music; they should be taught to love it instead.
Stravinsky, Igor

3.
Without Elvis, none of us could have made it.
Holly, Buddy

4.
Medicine to produce health must examine disease; and music, to create harmony must investigate discord.
Plutarch

5.
Music, moody food of us that trade in love.
William Shakespeare

6.
You're talking to someone who really understands rock music.
Gore, Tipper

7.
The new sound-sphere is global. It ripples at great speed across languages, ideologies, frontiers and races. The economics of this musical Esperanto is staggering. Rock and pop breed concentric worlds of fashion, setting and life-style. Popular music has brought with it sociologies of private and public manner, of group solidarity. The politics of Eden come loud.
Steiner, George

8.
The notes I handle no better than many pianists. But the pauses between the notes --ah, that is where the art resides.
Schnabel, Artur

9.
You don't need any brains to listen to music.
Pavarotti, Luciano

10.
Music is essentially useless, as life is: but both have an ideal extension which lends utility to its conditions.
George Santayana

11.
Hell is full of musical amateurs.
George Bernard Shaw

12.
Extraordinary how potent cheap music is.
Coward, Noel

13.
If you develop an ear for sounds that are musical it is like developing an ego. You begin to refuse sounds that are not musical and that way cut yourself off from a good deal of experience.
John Cage

14.
If one hears bad music, it is one's duty to drown it by one's conversation.
Wilde, Oscar

15.
Music can name the unnamable and communicate the unknowable.
Duffecy, James

16.
Music is the only language in which you cannot say a mean or sarcastic thing.
John Erskine

17.
Music is well said to be the speech of angels; in fact, nothing among the utterances allowed to man is felt to be so divine. It brings us near to the infinite.
Carlyle, Thomas

18.
She was one of those people who said I don't know anything about music, but I know what I like.
Beerbohm, Sir Max

19.
Canned music is like audible wallpaper.
Cooke, Alistair

20.
Music is the vernacular of the human soul.
Latham, Geoffrey

21.
Jazz came to America three hundred years ago in chains.
Whiteman, Paul

22.
If you can walk you can dance. If you can talk you can sing.
Proverb, Zimbabwe

23.
In sweet music is such art: killing care and grief of heart fall asleep, or hearing, die.
William Shakespeare

24.
Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!
J. K. Rowling

25.
After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
Huxley, Aldous

26.
I would advise you to keep your overhead down; avoid a major drug habit; play everyday, and take it in front of other people. They need to hear it, and you need them to hear it.
Taylor, James

27.
It is from the blues that all that may be called American music derives it most distinctive characteristics.
Johnson, James Weldon

28.
Music is a beautiful opiate, if you don't take it too seriously.
Miller, Henry

29.
We fight our way through the massed and leveled collective safe taste of the Top 40, just looking for a little something we can call our own. But when we find it and jam the radio to hear it again it isn't just ours -- it is a link to thousands of others who are sharing it with us. As a matter of a single song this might mean very little; as culture, as a way of life, you can't beat it.
Marcus, Greil

30.
Hearing often-times the still, sad music of humanity, nor harsh nor grating, though of ample power to chasten and subdue.
Wordsworth, William

31.
A verbal art like poetry is reflective; it stops to think. Music is immediate, it goes on to become.
Auden, W. H.

32.
For the introduction of a new kind of music must be shunned as imperiling the whole state; since styles of music are never disturbed without affecting the most important political institutions.
Plato

33.
If we were all determined to play the first violin we should never have an ensemble. Therefore, respect every musician in his proper place.
Schumann, Robert

34.
Music hath the charm to soothe a savage beast, but I'd try a revolver first.
Billings, Josh

35.
It is the only sensual pleasure without vice.
Johnson, Samuel

36.
I think my fans will follow me into our combined old age. Real musicians and real fans stay together for a long, long time.
Raitt, Bonnie

37.
There is two kinds of music the good and bad. I play the good kind.
Armstrong, Louis

38.
Music of all the arts has the most influence on the passions and the legislator should give it the greatest encouragement.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

39.
A woman's two cents worth is worth two cents in the music business.
Lynn, Loretta

40.
A jazz musician is a juggler who uses harmonies instead of oranges.
Green, Benny

41.
If music be the food of love, play on; give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, the appetite may sicken, and so die.
William Shakespeare

42.
Give me a laundry list and I'll set it to music.
Rossini, Gioacchino Antonio

43.
Don't play what's there, play what's not there.
Davis, Miles

44.
There is no feeling, except the extremes of fear and grief, that does not find relief in music.
George Eliot

45.
Like everything else in nature, music is a becoming, and it becomes its full self, when its sounds and laws are used by intelligent man for the production of harmony, and so made the vehicle of emotion and thought.
Mungers, Theodore

46.
Classical music is the kind we keep thinking will turn into a tune.
Kin Hubbard

47.
I think everyone should have a Beatles phase in their life. I think it's part of growing up in the Western world.
Jadelr and Cristina Cordova

48.
Perhaps all music, even the newest, is not so much something discovered as something that re-emerges from where it lay buried in the memory, inaudible as a melody cut in a disc of flesh. A composer lets me hear a song that has always been shut up silent within me.
Genet, Jean

49.
Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears form the eyes of woman.
Beethoven, Ludwig Van

50.
Nothing separates the generations more than music. By the time a child is eight or nine, he has developed a passion for his own music that is even stronger than his passions for procrastination and weird clothes.
Cosby, Bill
