Famous quotes containing the word music:

—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Always, however brutal an age may actually have been, its style transmits its music only.”
—André Malraux (1901–1976)
“To know whether you are enjoying a piece of music or not you must see whether you find yourself looking at the advertisements of Pears’ soap at the end of the libretto.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
