Best Quotes about Music
Hell is full of musical amateurs.
George Bernard Shaw
Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!
J. K. Rowling
I'm not going to be joining ZZ Top. You know they can't play my stuff. It's too complicated.
Brown, James
The way to write American music is simple. All you have to do is be an American and then write any kind of music you wish.
Virgil Thomson
The pleasure we feel in music springs from the obedience which is in it.
Thoreau, Henry David
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
Music, in performance, is a type of sculpture. The air in the performance is sculpted into something.
Zappa, Frank
Wagner's music is better than it sounds.
Edgar Wilson Nye
Music is the only language in which you cannot say a mean or sarcastic thing.
John Erskine
Brass bands are all very well in their place - outdoors and several miles away.
Sir Thomas Beecham
Without Elvis, none of us could have made it.
Holly, Buddy
It's a marvelous feeling when someone says I want to do this song of yours because they've connected to it. That's what I'm after.
Carpenter, Mary Chapin
If you can walk you can dance. If you can talk you can sing.
Proverb, Zimbabwe
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
Great music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and leaves the memory with difficulty. Magical music never leaves the memory.
Beecham, Sir Thomas
Extraordinary how potent cheap music is.
Coward, Noel
I was a veteran before I was a teenager.
Jackson, Michael
Classical music is the kind we keep thinking will turn into a tune.
Kin Hubbard
Music is the fourth great material want, first food, then clothes, then shelter, then music.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
The man that hath no music in himself, nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils. The motions of his spirit are dull as night, and his affections dark as Erebus. Let no such man be trusted.
Shakespeare, William
Music causes us to think eloquently.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Of course the music is a great difficulty. You see, if one plays good music, people don't listen, and if one plays bad music people don't talk.
Wilde, Oscar
Music was invented to confirm human loneliness.
Durrell, Lawrence
Rock 'n Roll is an asylum for emotional idiots.
Neville, Richard
A woman's two cents worth is worth two cents in the music business.
Lynn, Loretta
Words are poor interpreters in the realms of emotion. When all words end, music begins; when they suggest, it realizes; and hence is the secret of its strange, inexpressible power.
Haweis, H. R.
The most perfect expression of human behavior is a string quartet.
Tate, Jeffrey
Take a music bath once or twice a week for a few seasons, and you will find that it is to the soul what the water bath is to the body.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter.
Keats, John
Music hath the charm to soothe a savage beast, but I'd try a revolver first.
Billings, Josh
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
Their savage eyes turn'd to a modest gaze By the sweet power of music: therefore the poet Did feign that Orpheus drew trees, stones and floods; Since nought so stockish, hard and full of rage, But music for the time doth change his nature. 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 the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue.
Plato
Modern music is as dangerous as narcotics.
Mascagni, Pietro
Hearing often-times the still, sad music of humanity, nor harsh nor grating, though of ample power to chasten and subdue.
Wordsworth, William
If a thing isn't worth saying, you sing it.
Pierre Beaumarchais
I've outdone anyone you can name -- Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Strauss. Irving Berlin, he wrote 1,001 tunes. I wrote 5,500.
Brown, James
Song is the heroics of speech.
Carlyle, Thomas
Music is essentially useless, as life is: but both have an ideal extension which lends utility to its conditions.
George Santayana
Music and woman I cannot but give way to, whatever my business is.
Pepys, Samuel
Music should never be harmless.
Robertson, Robbie
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
Music when healthy, is the teacher of perfect order, and when depraved, the teacher of perfect disorder.
Ruskin, John
A musicologist is a man who can read music but can't hear it.
Sir Thomas Beecham
The manner in which Americans consume music has a lot to do with leaving it on their coffee tables, or using it as wallpaper for their lifestyles, like the score of a movie --it's consumed that way without any regard for how and why it's made.
Zappa, Frank
It is the only sensual pleasure without vice.
Johnson, Samuel
Music is the effort we make to explain to ourselves how our brains work. We listen to Bach transfixed because this is listening to a human mind.
Thomas, Lewis
Hell is full of musical amateurs: music is the brandy of the damned.
George Bernard Shaw
The effects of good music are not just because it's new; on the contrary music strikes us more the more familiar we are with it.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
