Music isn't just a pleasure, a transient satisfaction. It's a need, a deep hunger; and when the music is right, it's joy. Love. A foretaste of heaven. A comfort in grief. Is it too much to think that perhaps God speaks to us sometimes through music? How, then, could I be so ungrateful as to refuse the message? Orson Scott Card
About This Quote

Music isn't just a pleasure, a transient satisfaction. It's a need, a deep hunger; and when the music is right, it's joy. Love. A foretaste of heaven.

A comfort in grief. Is it too much to think that perhaps God speaks to us sometimes through music? How, then, could I be so ungrateful as to refuse the message? - John Lennon Music is an emotion, an art form that seems to be able to bring anyone anywhere to its own special place in time and space. It is no wonder then that many people feel that they cannot live without theirs.

Music is one of the most powerful ways to express love and share it with others, both close and far away. To deny oneself of this pure emotion because of its ability to make one feel better would be a foolish decision indeed. If you are alive, you should be listening to music.
