Famous quotes containing the word music:

    Good music is very close to primitive language.
    Denis Diderot (1713–1784)

    I used to be angry all the time and I’d sit there weaving my anger. Now I’m not angry. I sit there hearing the sounds outside, the sounds in the room, the sounds of the treadles and heddles—a music of my own making.
    Bhakti Ziek (b. c. 1946)

    Yankee Doodle, keep it up,
    Yankee Doodle, dandy,
    Mind the music and the step,
    And with the girls be handy.
    Richard Shuckburg (1756–1818)
