Music is ... A higher revelation than all Wisdom & Philosophy

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy. Music is the electrical soil in which the spirit lives, thinks and invents.

Music expresses feeling and thought, without language; it was below and before speech, and it is above and beyond all words.

Philosophy is the highest music.

I despise a world which does not feel that music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend.

Music is the best.

Music is what tell us that the human race is greater than we realize.

Music is the occult metaphysical exercise of a soul not knowing
that it philosophizes.

The effect of music is so very much more powerful and penetrating than is that of the other arts, for these others speak only of the shadow, but music of the essence.

Music is truly the universal language, and when it is excellently expressed how deeply it moves our souls

Information is not knowledge.
Knowledge is not wisdom.
Wisdom is not truth.
Truth is not beauty.
Beauty is not love.
Love is not music.
Music is THE BEST.

Poco desviados de allí hicieron alto estos tres carros, y cesó el enfadoso ruido de sus ruedas, y luego se oyó otro, no ruidoXVIII, sino un son de una suave y concertada música formado, con que Sancho se alegró, y lo tuvo a buena señal, y, así, dijo a la duquesa, de quien un punto ni un paso se apartaba: — Señora, donde hay música no puede haber cosa mala44. — Tampoco donde hay luces y claridad — respondió la duquesa.

A lo que replicó Sancho: — Luz da el fuego, y claridad las hogueras, como lo vemos en las que nos cercan y bien podría ser que nos abrasasen; pero la música siempre es indicio de regocijos y de fiestas.

Music is well said to be the speech of angels; in fact, nothing among the utterances allowed to man is felt to be so divine. It brings us near to the infinite.
