Groucho Marx, on television and books:


I find television very educating.
Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.

- Groucho Marx.

June 21 – World Music Day:


Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.

- Ludwig van Beethoven.

Music was my refuge.
I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

- Maya Angelou.

Life would be flat without music.
It is the background to all I do.
It speaks to the heart in its own special way like nothing else.

- Ludwig van Beethoven.

Music produces a kind of pleasure which human nature cannot do without.

- Confucius.

Music is the medicine of the mind.

- John Logan.

If music be the food of love, play on.

- William Shakespeare.

I think it's almost a law of nature that there are only certain things that hit an emotive space,
and that's what was always special for me about music: it made me feel something.

- Kate Bush.

Music can change the world.

- Ludwig van Beethoven.
