“I get to sing the melody part.”
Collin Lapp
“By shallow rivers to whose falls / Melodious birds sing madrigals.”
Christopher Marlowe
“Life's song is sung by many voices. The words written in overlapping verse. The melody it's power,transcending all barriers. Emotion, carried on notes, played by many hands Each of us carry the words inside. We were born knowing them.”
Jill Hanna
“Not every end is the goal. The end of a melody is not its goal, and yet if a melody has not reached its end, it has not reached its goal. A parable.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“Music creates order out of chaos: for rhythm imposes unanimity upon the divergent, melody imposes continuity upon the disjointed, and harmony imposes compatibility upon the incongruous”
Yehudi Menuhin
“There are not more than five musical notes, yet the combinations of these five give rise to more melodies than can ever be heard.”
Sun Tzu
“Thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees, / In some melodious plot / of beechen green, and shadows numberless, / Singest of summer in full-throated ease.”
John Keats
