Without music life would be a mistake. ~Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
...Men profess to be lovers of music, but for the most part they give no evidence in their opinions and lives that they have heard it. ~Henry David Thoreau
...Music cleanses the understanding; inspires it, and lifts it into a realm which it would not reach if it were left to itself. ~Henry Ward Beecher
...I have my own particular sorrows, loves, delights; and you have yours. But sorrow, gladness, yearning, hope, love, belong to all of us, in all times and in all places. Music is the only means whereby we feel these emotions in their universality. ~H.A. Overstreet
...Music is the wine which inspires one to new generative processes, and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious wine for mankind and makes them spiritually drunken. ~Ludwig van Beethoven
...You are the music while the music lasts. ~T.S. Eliot
...Music rots when it gets too far from the dance. Poetry atrophies when it gets too far from music. ~Ezra Pound
...Music is the art which is most nigh to tears and memory. ~Oscar Wilde
...There is no truer truth obtainable
By Man than comes of music.
~Robert Browning
...The pleasure we obtain from music comes from counting, but counting unconsciously. Music is nothing but unconscious arithmetic. ~Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
...The discovery of song and the creation of musical instruments both owed their origin to a human impulse which lies much deeper than conscious intention: the need for rhythm in life�¦ the need is a deep one, transcending thought, and disregarded at our peril. ~Richard Baker
...Music is the medicine of the breaking heart. ~Leigh Hunt
...An artist, in giving a concert, should not demand an entrance fee but should ask the public to pay, just before leaving as much as they like. From the sum he would be able to judge what the world thinks of him - and we would have fewer mediocre concerts. ~Kit Coleman
...Are we not formed, as notes of music are,
For one another, though dissimilar?
~Percy Bysshe Shelley

Anyone that sticks through the hardest of times; To raise their children to be productive members of society. To keep a marriage together. To make their dreams a reality. To help people really in need. To contribute to our world in ways that have substantial effects on all our lives, in the way we think, the way we live, or a progress toward something better.
