"I haven't understood a bar of music in my life, but I have felt it". - Igor Stravinsky

"If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music" - Gustav Mahler "Beethoven is to produce his new symphony in three parts with a new Mass and a new overture" - Franz Schubert "Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent" - Victor Hugo "Music can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable" -Ludwig Van Beethoven "If I were not a physicist I would probably be a musician, I often think in music, I live my daydreams in music, I see my life in terms of music". - Albert Einstein "Handel is so great and so simple that no-one but a professional musician is unable to understand him" - Samuel Butler "Good music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and quits the memory with difficulty. Magical music never leaves the memory" - Thomas Beecham "Music is by it's very nature, essentially powerless to express anything at all... music expresses itself" - Igor Stravinsky "Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom or philosophy". - Ludwig Van Beethoven "The Spirit speaks directly to our hearts through music. That’s why music has always had such power to move people into positive action." Kenny Loggins "Too many pieces of music finish too long after the end." ~ Igor Stravinsky "The wise musicians are those who play what they can master." ~ Duke Ellington "If one hears bad music it is one's duty to drown it by one's conversation." ~ Oscar Wilde Musicians don't retire, they decrescendo-decelerando... "Hell is full of musical amateurs." George Bernard Shaw "There are more bad musicians than there is bad music." ~ Isaac Stern "Musicians don't retire; they stop when there's no more music in them." Louis Armstrong
