I feel close to the rebelliousness and vigour of the youth here. Perhaps time will separate us, but nobody can deny that here, behind the windows of Manchester, there is an insane love of football, of celebration and of music.
Eric Cantona
Until I die there will be sounds. And they will continue following my death. One need not fear about the future of music.
John Milton Cage Jr.
Which is more musical, a truck passing by a factory or a truck passing by a music school? Are the people inside the school musical and the ones outside unmusical?
John Milton Cage Jr.
Language is a gift that puts lyrics to the music of our lives. Without spoken language we wouldnt be able to say, I love you. Wed have to say uuurrrgghh or hold up a sign. And whether its one persons gentle English or anothers muddy, arrogant French, its our language that makes us unapproachable and difficult to understand.
Derren Victor Brown
Music is the shorthand of emotion.
Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
This land is your land and this land is my land, sure, but the world is run by those that never listen to music anyway.
Bob Dylan
There is no feeling, except the extremes of fear and grief, that does not find relief in music.â€
T.S. Eliot
I had no idea how much music and singing really means to people, and in my own tiny way to be a part of that is very humbling and very sweet, and and I feel very honored. ... I have a great appreciation for this, in every ways and a new understanding, and I'm just as amazed as anyone else.
MaryAnne Ysabella
It is arrogance to expect that life will always be music.... Harmony, like a following breeze at sea, is the exception. In a world where most things wind up broken or lost, our lot is to tack and tune.
Harvey Oxenhorn
Music is a fluid art form that picks up echoes of the past and weaves them into a new sound. The distinct sounds of the past merge together to create what we know today as gospel, western, folk, or jazz.
Ryan Lewis
The folk thing was about civil rights... ... Folk music is the music of the working class, the music of the folks. Blues is folk music.
Otis Taylor
All music is folk music, I ain't never heard no horse sing a song.
Louis Armstrong
The local music community here was dying for a place to record, so we started doing acoustic, folk and bluegrass and then did rock projects for other bands, as well as for my son Tal and my own work.
