1. "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
2. "Music is the wine which inspires one to new generative
processes, and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious
wine for mankind and makes them spiritually drunken." ~
Ludwig van Beethoven
3. "An artist, in giving a concert, should not demand an
entrance fee but should ask the public to pay, just before
leaving as much as they like. From the sum he would be
able to judge what the world thinks of him - and we would
have fewer mediocre concerts." ~ Kit Coleman
4. "Music is everybody's possession. It's only publishers
who think that people own it." ~ John Lennon
5. "One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel
no pain." ~ Bob Marley

'Is there a meaning to music?' My answer would be, 'Yes.'
And 'Can you state in so many words what the meaning is?'
My answer to that would be, 'No.'" ~ Aaron Copland
7. "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
8. "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
9. "Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the
sensual life." ~ Ludwig van Beethoven
10. "Oh, the brave music of a distant drum!" ~ Omar Khayyam
11. "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, Jr.
