He Who Has Ears To Hear (Let Him Hear)





A Strange Beauty Remixed playlist by MixMasterE

If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it; that surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die....


We come spinning out of nothingness,
scattering stars like dust.
We rarely hear the inward praise song,
but we're all dancing to it nevertheless.
To praise is to praise how one surrenders
to every tune of the symphony celestial
...

It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature and everlasting beauty of monotony.


Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.



Who hears music feels his/her solitude peopled at once.


(Selected quotes from Shakepeare, Plato, Robert Browning, Benjamin Britten)
