Music is much like love. It has a vast range of emotions, is difficult to describe, and most people have experienced it in one form or another.
It expresses what we cannot. It is the language of the soul and often impacts us in ways we don’t fully understand. Sounds a lot like love, doesn’t it?
Music expresses feeling and thought, without language; it was below and before speech, and it is above and beyond all words. ~Robert G. Ingersoll
There is something very wonderful about music. Words are wonderful enough; but music is even more wonderful. It speaks not to our thoughts as words do; it speaks through our hearts and spirits, to the very core and root of our souls. Music soothes us, stirs us up, it puts noble feelings in us, it can make us cringe; and it can melt us to tears; and yet we have no idea how. It is a language by itself, just as perfect in its ways as speech, as words, just as divine, just as blessed.
-Charles Kingsley
Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.
Victor Hugo
Music is love in search of a word.
Sidney Lanier
