Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “Now the rich stream of Music winds along
    Deep, majestic, smooth, and strong,”
    —Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

    “In benevolent natures the impulse to pity is so sudden, that like instruments of music which obey the touch ... you would think the will was scarce concerned, and that the mind was altogether passive in the sympathy which her own goodness has excited. The truth is,—the soul is [so] ... wholly engrossed by the object of pity, that she does not ... take leisure to examine the principles upon which she acts.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “Hell is full of musical amateurs: music is the brandy of the damned.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
