Music Quotations
He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice.
Albert Einstein
One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.
Bob Marley
If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.
Henry David Thoreau
If one plays good music, people don't listen and if one plays bad music people don't talk.
Oscar Wilde
If music be the food of love, play on.
William Shakespeare
Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music.
Ronald Reagan
Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.
Jimi Hendrix
Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.
Maya Angelou
The man that hath no music in himself, Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.
William Shakespeare
It is piracy, not overt online music stores, which is our main competitor.
