"Without music, life is a journey through a desert". — Pat Conroy

"I do more writing by myself than with anybody else. My best thing is sitting...around somewhere with a guitar, and having an idea. You never know where it'd come from. Songwriting is a God-given talent." Charlie Daniels

"It's always been a gift with me, hearing music the way I do. I don't know where it comes from, it's just there and I don't question it."
                                                                   — Miles Davis

"Music is the purest form of art... therefore true poets...seek to express the universe in terms of music. The singer has everything within him. The notes come out from his very life. They are not materials gathered from outside."Rabindranath Tagore (Indian Poet.)

"If music be the food of love, play on." — Shakespeare, Twelfth Night
