A few quotes on the subject of music.
The first and third are my favorites of all music quotes I've yet read.
"I know that twelve notes in each octave and the varieties of rhythm
offer me opportunities that all of human genius will never exhaust."
- Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971)
"The infinite sinuousness, nuance, and complexity of music enable it to
speak in a thousand different accents to a thousand different listeners,
and to say with non-committal and moving intimacy what no language would acknowledge or express
and what no situations in life could completely exhaust or make possible."
- Irwin Edman
"Music expresses that which can not be said and on which it is impossible to remain silent."
- Victor Hugo (1802-1885)

Or you could name this message: "What the Dead Said"
Nathanael = hilarious!
okay, I am actually sitting here laughing out loud at these comments! "sayings from the decayings" is really morbid, but hilarious.
Note: this is not a musical quote, it sounds like one, but it is not on one accord though.
yes, there are three music puns in that comment above...
Well played!
that was to horny...
"Horny" - a word which here means "brilliant"?
