Philosophy is the highest music.: Plato (427 BC - 347 BC)
No Voice; but oh! the silence sank like music on my heart.: Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772 - 1834)
I see music as the augmentation of a split second of time.: Erin Cleary
Sure there is music even in the beauty, and the silent note which Cupid strikes, far sweeter than the sound of an instrument. For there is music wherever there is harmony, order and proportion; and thus far we may maintain the music of the spheres; for those well ordered motions, and regular paces, though they give no sound unto the ear, yet to the understanding they strike a note most full of harmony.: Sir Thomas Browne (1605 - 1682)
Numerous politicians have seized absolute power and muzzled the press. Never in history has the press seized absolute power and muzzled the politicians.: David Brinkley (1920 - 2003)
Hypocrisy is the vaseline of political intercourse.: Billy Connolly on ABC's "Head Of the Class"
I gather, young man, that you wish to be a Member of Parliament. The first lesson that you must learn is, when I call for statistics about the rate of infant mortality, what I want is proof that fewer babies died when I was Prime Minister than when anyone else was Prime Minister. That is a political statistic.: Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)
We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all of our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind of self-government; upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.: James Madison (1751 - 1836), (attributed)
