Composed Music

Famous quotes containing the words composed and/or music:

    “In a universe that is all gradations of matter, from gross to fine to finer, so that we end up with everything we are composed of in a lattice, a grid, a mesh, a mist, where particles or movements so small we cannot observe them are held in a strict and accurate web, that is nevertheless nonexistent to the eyes we use for ordinary living—in this system of fine and finer, where then is the substance of a thought?”
    —Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

    “All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it.”
    —Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
