(new interest) Acousticophobia- Fear of noise.
with music being so influential in my life it makes sense that this would be important I have recently gained significant interest in Deaf culture (not too recently, for a long time I've believed that to be a good musician you need to have an appreciation for the lack of sound, also known as the other half of music, the notes not being played).

HERE ARE SOME MUSIC QUOTES
Albert Einstein
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 fully suffice.

Katie Greenwood
Music isn't just learning notes and playing them, You learn notes to play to the music of your soul.

Anon
A real leader faces the music, even when he doesn't like the tune.

Red Auerbach
Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

Pat Conroy
Without music, life is a journey through a desert.

Noel Coward
Extraordinary how potent cheap music is.

George Eliot (1819-80), [Mary Ann Evans] British writer
There is no feeling, except the extremes of fear and grief, that does not find relief in music.

Aretha Franklin, [Queen of Soul] Motown singer, performer
I've always felt rock and roll was very, very wholesome music.

Harlan Howard
Country music is three chords and the truth.

George Jellinek
The history of a people is found in its songs.

Billy Joel
I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music.

Geoffrey Latham
Music is the vernacular of the human soul.

Hal A. Lingerman
Just as certain selections of music will nourish your physical body and your emotional layer, so other musical works will bring greater health to your mind.

Pietro Mascagni
Modern music is as dangerous as narcotics.

Theodore Mungers
Like everything else in nature, music is a becoming, and it becomes its full self, when its sounds and laws are used by intelligent man for the production of harmony, and so made the vehicle of emotion and thought.

Ernest Newman
A good composer is slowly discovered a bad composer is slowly found out.

Friedrich Nietzsche
Without music, life would be an error. The German imagines even God singing songs.

Mark Twain (1835-1910) - Famous Writer
Wagner's music is better than it sounds.

Charlie Parker Music is your own experience, your own thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn. They teach you there's a boundary line to music. But, man, there's no boundary line to art.

Jesse Micheals "Music is an indirect force for change, because it provides an anchor against human tragedy. In this sense, it works towards a reconciled world. It can also be the direct experience of change. At certain points during some shows, the reconciled world is already here, at least in that second, that place. Operation Ivy was very lucky to have experienced this. Those seconds reveal that the momentum that drives a subculture is more important then any particular band. The momentum is made of all the people who stay interested, and keep their sense of urgancy and hope."
& also by Jesse
"The static pulse inside of music bringing us escape
It's always temporary changing nothing in its wake
Just a second while we're leaving all this shit behind
Just a second cause it's leaving jsut this much in mind
To resist despair that second makes you see
To resist despair cause you can't change everything
To resist despair in this world is, what it is what it is what it is To be free."
