Famous quotes containing the words music, artistic and/or leaders:

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

    “Realism should only be the means of expression of religious genius ... or, at the other extreme, the artistic expressions of monkeys which are quite satisfied with mere imitation. In fact, art is never realistic though sometimes it is tempted to be. To be really realistic a description would have to be endless.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “It is our experience that political leaders do not always mean the opposite of what they say.”
    —Abba Eban (b. 1915)
