Music, in the best sense, does not require novelty; nay, the older it
is, and the more we are accustomed to it, the greater its
effect.--_Goethe._
Music, which gentler on the spirit lies than tired eyelids upon tired
eyes.--_Tennyson._
Melodies die out like the pipe of Pan, with the ears that love them and
listen for them.--_George Eliot._
Music can noble hints impart, engender fury, kindle love, with
unsuspected eloquence can move and manage all the man with secret
art.--_Addison._
Music is the harmonious voice of creation; an echo of the invisible
world; one note of the divine concord which the entire universe is
destined one day to sound.--_Mazzini._
