Melody Maker/1950s%e2%80%931960s

Famous quotes containing the words melody and/or maker:

    Perhaps all music, even the newest, is not so much something discovered as something that re-emerges from where it lay buried in the memory, inaudible as a melody cut in a disc of flesh. A composer lets me hear a song that has always been shut up silent within me.
    Jean Genet (1910–1986)

    If I were a maker of books I should compile a register, with comments, of different deaths. He who should teach people to die, would teach them to live.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
