Music Quotes
-
The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
-
As someone who worships music, I believe it can never be ugly!
Shreya Ghoshal
-
Poetry itself is music. I'm just lucky that I can convert it into music. William Blake is my favorite poet of all time, and he said that he wasn't quite familiar with the sounds of music. If so, he would have been a musician. All of his poems are all like songs, and that's how I always try to start my thoughts.
Benjamin Clementine
-
Soul music is about longevity and reaching and touching people on a human level - and that's never going to get lost.
Jill Scott
-
I didn't know how well my first album had done; it was enough to get me to do the second album, which was a continuation of the music I'd worked on and perfected.
Roberta Flack
-
I think that the sheer fact that music can raise certain questions or put topics on the agenda has in itself already an effect. Just like any other art of cultural expression can do that - books, films, photos, painting - it can bring people together who share certain ideals, who don't find their ideas expressed properly, or even expressed at all, in the mainstream media.
G.W. Sok
-
One song isn't going to ever change things, but I suppose it's the accumulation of music generally [that is]. If you can imagine a world that has no music in it, it would be a very different world, so music does change the world by virtue of all the music in it. Cumulative music of every kind, from banging a drum to playing a flute or recording symphonies, or singing 'War, what is it good for?' All those things change the whole way we live.
Mick Jagger
The Rolling Stones
-
It means a lot to everybody outside of the business, so much that it's come to mean more to us. It's sort of an insider music thing, not really a mandate of the people. But it's nice to be in there with all of my heroes.
Chris Stein
Blondie
-
I'm always writing. And, I mean, I always counsel people when they call me a musician: I really do not have the skills of a musician. I really don't think like a musician, though I love music and I perform and sing.
Patti Smith
-
I've been through a lot of heartache in my day, and you turn to music to prop yourself up. It's a healing thing, and it's a powerful, powerful, beautiful thing.
Nancy Wilson
Heart
-
I have a really full life, both within music and outside it.
Bonnie Raitt
-
I really do love bluesy-jazzy music, so I love Etta James, B.B. King and Billie Holiday. I love that they have soul in their voices - I think that's something important is having.
Bridgit Mendler
