When my life changed, only music that doesn’t change from my life…

Why would we need music if our lives were exactly as we wanted them to be?

I waited for something,something died.So I waited for nothing,Nothing arrived.

Life is like a long note; it persists without variance, without wavering. There is no cessation in sound or pause in tempo. It continues on, and we must master it or it will master us.

The secret is not to make your music louder. But to make the world quieter.

Music is the real life. Everything else is just mortar.

Here are all these people, full of heartache or hatred or desire, and we all have our troubles and the school year is filled with vulgarity and triviality and consequence, and there are all these teachers and kids of every shape and size, and there’s this life we’re struggling through full of shouting and tears and fights and break-ups and dashed hopes and unexpected luck — it all disappears, just like that, when the choir begins to sing. Everyday life vanishes into song, you are suddenly overcome with a feeling of brotherhood, of deep solidarity, even love, and it diffuses the ugliness of everyday life into a spirit of perfect communion.

Nicholas Sparks

Life…was much like a song. In the beginning there is mystery, in the end there is confirmation, but it’s in the middle where all the emotion resides to make the whole thing worthwhile.

Sometimes I think life is just a rodeo, the trick is to ride and make it to the bell.

Alexander McCall Smith

We act out our lives to a soundtrack, thought Isabel, the music that becomes, for a spell, out favourite and is listened to again and again until it stands for the time itself. But that was about all the scripting that we achieved; the rest, for most of us, was extemporising.

The kind of person who listens to our music doesn’t want to live a bit and die a little and find a friend. The kind of person who listens to our music wants to live forever and die a lot and fall in love.

All of my most significant moments somehow involved music. It’s like my life was a John Hughes film and somebody had to put together the perfect soundtrack.
