Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “Music is either sacred or secular. The sacred agrees with its dignity, and here has its greatest effect on life, an effect that remains the same through all ages and epochs. Secular music should be cheerful throughout.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “Nothing separates the generations more than music. By the time a child is eight or nine, he has developed a passion for his own music that is even stronger than his passions for procrastination and weird clothes.”
    —Bill Cosby (b. 1937)

    “Let music sound while he doth make his choice;
    Then if he lose he makes a swan-like end,
    Fading in music.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
