Famous quotes containing the word music:
“The average educated man in America has about as much knowledge of what a political idea is as he has of the principles of counterpoint. Each is a thing used in politics or music which those fellows who practise politics or music manipulate somehow. Show him one and he will deny that it is politics at all. It must be corrupt or he will not recognize it. He has only seen dried figs. He has only thought dried thoughts. A live thought or a real idea is against the rules of his mind.”
—John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)
“Nothing is capable of being well set to music that is not nonsense.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“Always, however brutal an age may actually have been, its style transmits its music only.”
—André Malraux (1901–1976)
