Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.

Plato

Where words fail, music speaks.

Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.

Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

Music is the strongest form of magic.
