Famous quotes containing the word music:
“As for the terms good and bad, they indicate no positive quality in things regarded in themselves, but are merely modes of thinking, or notions which we form from the comparison of things with one another. Thus one and the same thing can be at the same time good, bad, and indifferent. For instance music is good for him that is melancholy, bad for him who mourns; for him who is deaf, it is neither good nor bad.”
—Baruch (Benedict)
“Good music is very close to primitive language.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
“The music in my heart I bore,
Long after it was heard no more.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
