Motivational Quotes
Music
We all drew on the comfort which is given out by the major works of Mozart, which is as real and material as the warmth given up by a glass of brandy.

Best Quotes about Music
I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.
George Eliot
Musical people are so absurdly unreasonable. They always want one to be perfectly dumb at the very moment when one is longing to be absolutely deaf.
Wilde, Oscar
My heart, which is so full to overflowing, has often been solaced and refreshed by music when sick and weary.
Martin Luther
Rock 'n Roll is monotony tinged with hysteria.
Packard, Vance
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
Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue.
Plato
A lot of people are singing about how screwed up the world is, and I don't think that everybody wants to hear about that all the time.
Carey, Mariah
There's a basic rule which runs through all kinds of music, kind of an unwritten rule. I don't know what it is. But I've got it.
Wood, Ron
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 can name the unnamable and communicate the unknowable.
Duffecy, James
Among all men on the earth bards have a share of honor and reverence, because the muse has taught them songs and loves the race of bards.
Homer
It is the only sensual pleasure without vice.
Johnson, Samuel
Extraordinary how potent cheap music is.
Coward, Noel
Music with dinner is an insult both to the cook and the violinist.
G. K. Chesterton
Berlioz says nothing in his music, but he says it magnificently.
Huneker, James G.
A musicologist is a man who can read music but cannot hear it.
Beecham, Sir Thomas
Music is a readily available, highly effective tool that you use to improve both your cognitive and physical abilities.
Winter, Arthur
Wagner's music is better than it sounds.
Edgar Wilson Nye
Classical music is the kind we keep thinking will turn into a tune.
Kin Hubbard
Since music is a language with some meaning at least for the immense majority of mankind, although only a tiny minority of people are capable of formulating a meaning in it, and since it is the only language with the contradictory attributes of being at once intelligible and untranslatable, the musical creator is a being comparable to the gods, and music itself the supreme mystery of the science of man, a mystery that all the various disciplines come up against and which holds the key to their progress.
Levi-Strauss, Claude
Alas! all music jars when the soul's out of tune.
Cervantes, Miguel De
Music was invented to confirm human loneliness.
Durrell, Lawrence
Music is the only language in which you cannot say a mean or sarcastic thing.
John Erskine
A musicologist is a man who can read music but can't hear it.
Sir Thomas Beecham
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
After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
Huxley, Aldous
Brass bands are all very well in their place - outdoors and several miles away.
Sir Thomas Beecham
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
Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.
Beethoven, Ludwig Van
Canned music is like audible wallpaper.
Cooke, Alistair
You're talking to someone who really understands rock music.
Gore, Tipper
It is from the blues that all that may be called American music derives it most distinctive characteristics.
Johnson, James Weldon
There is no feeling, except the extremes of fear and grief, that does not find relief in music.
George Eliot
When Mozart was composing at the end of the eighteenth century, the city of Vienna was so quiet that fire alarms could be given verbally, by a shouting watchman mounted on top of St. Stefan's Cathedral. In twentieth-century society, the noise level is such that it keeps knocking our bodies out of tune and out of their natural rhythms. This ever-increasing assault of sound upon our ears, minds, and bodies adds to the stress load of civilized beings trying to live in a highly complex environment.
Halpern, Steven
A jazz musician is a juggler who uses harmonies instead of oranges.
Green, Benny
Truly fertile Music, the only kind that will move us, that we shall truly appreciate, will be a Music conducive to Dream, which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason.
Camus, Albert
After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
Aldous Huxley
All my concerts had no sounds in them; they were completely silent. People had to make up their own music in their minds!
Yoko Ono
I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music.
Joel, Billy
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
If a thing isn't worth saying, you sing it.
Pierre Beaumarchais
Music is spiritual. The music business is not.
Morrison, Van
If anyone has conducted a Beethoven performance, and then doesn't have to go to an osteopath, then there's something wrong.
Rattle, Simon
Music when healthy, is the teacher of perfect order, and when depraved, the teacher of perfect disorder.
Ruskin, John
The opera is to music what a bawdy house is to a cathedral.
Mencken, H. L.
Music is only love looking for words.
Durrell, Lawrence
I am fond of music I think because it is so amoral. Everything else is moral and I am after something that isn't. I have always found moralizing intolerable.
Hesse, Hermann
Music and dancing (the more the pity) have become so closely associated with ideas of riot and debauchery among the less cultivated classes, that a taste for them, for their own sakes, can hardly be said to exist, and before they can be recommended as innocent or safe amusements, a very great change of ideas must take place.
Herschel, Sir John
To know the cause why music was ordain'd! Was it not to refresh the mind of a man after his studies or his usual pain?
William Shakespeare
Music is the fourth great material want, first food, then clothes, then shelter, then music.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
