Music Quotes
-
Music was our food... When we can play, it can't be so terrible. The music, the music!
Alice Herz-Sommer
-
You need the past as a guideline. The history of music is a good basis, but to escape that stuff, that tortuous rulebook, you have to learn it first. It's kind of like religion - once you've written the Bible, that's it, move on.
John Joseph Lydon
-
I am passionate about making music that feeds the soul and brings people together.
Judith Hill
-
I really do listen to all types of music, not only rock, but everything from good pop music - which is usually older pop music - to RB and indie rock. I love indie rock more than a lot of the commercial stuff that you'd expect.
Amy Lee
Evanescence

I trust no one who hasn’t time for music.
Jack White
The White Stripes
-
The music certainly plays a major role. You can be free enough to comfort each other, to touch each other, to embrace each other, to engage each other, to not be afraid of each other. The music certainly has that very strong element. Go back to folk songs, gospel, jazz, and spirituals. See, all of that came out of tremendous pain and hurt, rejection, loss, alienation, and abandonment. What I'm doing is I'm expressing my pain and hope at the same time.
Cecil Williams
-
I would never get into the music industry per se, but listening to music really helps me to concentrate. It's just a nice way for me to vibe and chill. There's music for when you're sad or happy or in love; there's music for every moment in life.
Haley Pullos
-
Music should be healing, music should uplift the soul, music should inspire; then there is no better way of getting closer to God, of rising higher towards the spirit, of attaining spiritual perfection, only if it is rightly understood.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
-
Music is my greatest love. It is also my first love. But I love a lot of things, including painting, drawing, writing, designing, and more.
Amber Giles
-
People who do music do it because it is all they can do. And that's me, I suppose. I can do nothing else.
Jean-Michel Jarre
-
I think dissonance in music makes you think. It isn't, 'Oh, that's a pretty melody I can whistle.' You have to sit down and listen to tell it apart from other things.
Eugene Chadbourne
-
There is no merit in being truthful when one is truthful by nature, or rather when one can be nothing else; it is a gift, like poetry or music. But it needs courage to be truthful after carefully considering the matter, unless a kind of pride is involved; for example, the man who says to himself, "I am ugly," and then says, "I am ugly" to his friends, lest they should think themselves the first to make the discovery.
Eugene Delacroix
-
There can be no Swaraj where there is no harmony, no music.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
Things inspiring me - good melody, a great bass line, a fabulous voice... by which I mean someone who sounds great, rather than does pyrotechnics... and people playing really musically. Music is endlessly fascinating.
Al Murray
-
There are three things I was born with in this world, and there are three things I will have until the day I die-hope, determination, and song.
Miriam Makeba
-
I love what I do. I love playing music.
Mat Kearney

Jon Oringer
-
The abstract music is just more interesting because it doesn't really have anything to say, but if it is good, it creates thoughts and feelings, and I enjoy that. For me, once the music creates those thoughts and feelings, I begin to write a song about it.
Paul Simon
Simon & Garfunkel
