Music
Stanley Kubrick on Movies
“A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.”
Voltaire on Songs
“Anything too stupid to be said is sung.”
Bob Marley on Music
“One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.”
T. S. Eliot on Music
“You are the music while the music lasts.”
Virgil Thomson on Music
“The way to write American music is simple. All you have to do is be an American and then write any kind of music you wish.”
Maya Angelou on Music
“Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.”
Victor Hugo on Music
“Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.”
Laurie Anderson on Music
“Writing about music is like dancing about architecture.”
