The Purpose Of Music Is To Sober

If You Develop An Ear For Sounds That Are Musical It Is Like Developing An Ego. You Begin To Refuse Sounds That Are Not Musical And That Way Cut Yourself Off From A Good Deal Of Experience.

The Truth Is That Everything Causes Everything Else. We Do Not Speak Therefore Of One Thing Causing Another. There Are No Secrets. It's Just We Thought They Said Dead When They Said Bread.

I Remember Loving Sound Before I Ever Took A Music Lesson. And So We Make Our Lives By What We Love.

Discord Occasions A Momentary Distress To The Ear, Which Remains Unsatisfied, And Even Uneasy, Until It Hears Something Better. I Am Convinced...that Provided The Ear Be At Length Made Amends, There Are Few Dissonances Too Strong For It. Disharmony, To Paraphrase Bergson's Statement About Disorder, Is Simply A Harmony To Which Many Are Unaccustomed.

A 'mistake' Is Beside The Point, For Once Anything Happens It Authentically Is.
