I have found music, blog-wise, quite polarizing, because people like what they like. Which is fine.
Plus I’m an absolute novice in creating music !
Anyway – I like this quote, so sharing for you.
‘What trifles constitute happiness! The sound of a bagpipe. Without music life would be a mistake. The German imagines even God as a songster.’
OR Sometimes expressed simply as:
‘Without music, life would be a mistake.’
– F. Nietzsche (Twilight of the Idols, or, How to Philosophize with a Hammer)
I’m not widely read on Nietzsche, so don’t know if these quotes are correct (exactly), please feel free to correct me in the comments if you’re better read than I.
Cheers

Thanks to Anna for sharing this quote. I think it’s worth passing on :
“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
From Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl.

Been browsing some of my fellow blogger’s blogs today, and I came across this quote. I think it’s worth passing on :
‘The one who answered himself the question: “Why live?” – Will be able to bear almost any answer to the question: “How to live?”‘
OR Sometimes expressed simply as:
‘He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.’
F. Nietzsche
I’m not widely read on Nietzsche, so don’t know “the most correct” of these quotes (suspect the first version), but the meaning is about the same.
Cheers
