Read through the most famous quotes by topic #harmony




To think better, to think like the best humans, we are probably going to have to learn again to judge a person's intelligence, not by the ability to recite facts, but by the good order or harmoniousness of his or her surroundings.

— Wendell Berry

I've heard it said that Bach questioned wether the soloist or the accompanist deserves the greatest glory. ↗

The greater puzzle of universal wisdom and beauty that we have strived to honor through our work includes the profound legacies of world artistic and spiritual traditions, the innate integrity of human communities where people seek to live in social harmony, and that regenerative stream of life sustained upon the earth itself as it spins through the cosmos to the music of the spheres. ↗


— Luther E. Vann
