Quotes:

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.
View quotes by Bill Cosby

There is no music that can't be used politically, but the motives behind the creation of that music can be non-political.
View quotes by Earle Brown

'We didn't all get into music for a job! We got into music to avoid a job, in truth - and get lots of girls.'
View quotes by Paul McCartney

Most true artists care about music as a pure, passionate art form, but can get caught in the trap of the business. Which, sadly, has now become more important than the artist or even the music itself.
View quotes by Rosanna Arquette

I have made great music stone cold sober and awful music while on psychotropic drugs, it's just whatever's happening at the time, sometimes it is coming from the supernatural.
View quotes by Jim Diamond

I was born with music inside me. Music was one of my parts. Like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood. It was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me-like food or water.
View quotes by Ray Charles

I believe honesty comes across in music because for [most] people music isn't just something to dance to.
View quotes by Willa Ford

Music and silence combine strongly because music is done with silence, and silence is full of music.
View quotes by Marcel Marceau

There are some people, by the way, that associate a certain amount of visualization with the performance of music. Those are people that really are not centrally concerned only with music, the traditional things.
View quotes by Leo Ornstein

Music is spiritual. The music business is not.
View quotes by Van Morrison

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.
View quotes by Igor Stravinsky

When I play my own music, or when I play new music, there's much more stress and intensity of thinking about how I'm going to make it work!
View quotes by Bela Fleck

Music has brought me some of the highest moments of my life. I don't even hear the music. I don't even hear the notes.
View quotes by Jane Seymour

The Church knew what the psalmist knew: Music praises God. Music is well or better able to praise him than the building of the church and all its decoration; it is the Church's greatest ornament.
View quotes by Igor Stravinsky

Right. For me, music is an image. Lyrics aren't important. If music itself conveys messages, lyrics are unnecessary, though I don't try to get rid of lyrics... If right words don't occur to me, there's no need to put lyrics.
View quotes by Faye Wong

You are the music while the music lasts.
View quotes by T S Elliot

Love the music in yourself, not yourself in the music.
View quotes by Jon Peter Lewis

I like music, too, I like playing music.
View quotes by Beau Bridges

We can all make music individually. But we are smart enough to know that the music we make together is far better.
View quotes by Peter Buck

Music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance... poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music.

View quotes by Ezra Pound
