Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “The manner in which Americans “consume” music has a lot to do with leaving it on their coffee tables, or using it as wallpaper for their lifestyles, like the score of a movie—it’s consumed that way without any regard for how and why it’s made.”
    —Frank Zappa (1940–1994)

    “A man in all the world’s new fashion planted,
    That hath a mint of phrases in his brain.
    One who the music of his own vain tongue
    Doth ravish like enchanting harmony.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Through music the passions enjoy themselves.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
