Instrument Quotes

Canada is a country of ingredients without a cuisine; we’re a country with musicians without an indigenous instrument; Toronto’s a city that doesn’t even have a dish named after it Picture Quote #1

I think any song should sound good just played on a solitary instrument with the vocal. If you have those basics you have all you need. The production then just polishes that idea into the finished thing Picture Quote #1

Power is an instrument of fatal consequence. It is confined no more readily than quicksilver, and escapes good intentions as easily as air flows through mesh Picture Quote #1

The only time I’m miserable is when I can’t keep an instrument in tune Picture Quote #1

If you play an instrument, it makes you a better singer. The more you play, the better you sing, the more you sing, the better you play Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that you can write music if you don’t know how to play an instrument. You have to know the basics, then you can go forward Picture Quote #1

Government should be a place where people can come together, and no one gets left behind. No one…gets left behind. An instrument of good Picture Quote #1

No, no, don’t let my vulnerable heart share in this sacrifice to lust! Let him disgust me before pleasing me! Let him be what others have been, an instrument that I can break before becoming the echoes of its vibration Picture Quote #1

Accept the long night patiently, quietly, humbly, and resignedly as intended for your true good. It is not a punishment for sin committed but an instrument of annihilating egoism Picture Quote #1

No, I don’t, like, play an instrument or anything.I’m just... well, you saw me at the beginning there. I was the guy that fell down and died Picture Quote #1

I now understood the secret of music and knew what makes it so infinitely superior to all the other arts: its incorporeality. Once it has left an instrument it becomes its own master, a free and independent creature of sound, weightless, incorporeal and perfectly in tune with the universe Picture Quote #1

I almost tell him that I’d never be able to do something like that, just take out my instrument and begin playing on a street corner. But it feels to personal. Yes, I’m shy, but why bring it to his attention? I’m too shy to talk about how shy I am Picture Quote #1

The phone is an instrument of intrusion into order. It is a threat to control. Just when you think you are alone and safe, the call could come that changes your life. Or someone else’s. It makes the same flat, mechanical noise for everyone and gives no clues what’s waiting there on the other end of the line. You can never be too careful Picture Quote #1

A violinist had a violin, a painter his palette. All I had was myself. I was the instrument that I must care for Picture Quote #1

It amazed me how some people could touch an instrument and create something so beautiful, and when others tried, like me, it just sounded like mangled noise Picture Quote #1

One cannot walk down an avenue, converse with a friend, enter a building, browse beneath the sandstone arches of an old arcade without meeting an instrument of time. Time is visible in all places. Clock towers, wristwatches, church bells divide years into months, months into days, days into hours, hours into seconds, each increment of time marching after the other in perfect succession. And beyond any particular clock, a vast scaffold of time, stretching across the universe, lays down the law of time equally for all Picture Quote #1

If the photographer is interested in the people in front of his lens, and if he is compassionate, it’s already a lot. The instrument is not the camera but the photographer Picture Quote #1

Freedom is the right to choose: the right to create for oneself the alternatives of choice. Without the possibility of choice and the exercise of choice a man is not a man but a member, an instrument, a thing Picture Quote #1

Of true knowledge at any time, a good part is merely convenient, necessary indeed to the worker, but not to an understanding of his subject: One can judge a building without knowing where to buy the bricks; one can understand a violin sonata without knowing how to score for the instrument. The work may in fact be better understood without a knowledge of the details of its manufacture, of attention to these tends to distract from meaning and effect Picture Quote #1

There’s so much music out there and so many possibilities. I like anyone who plays any instrument Picture Quote #1

The people who really got me off were dealing with the musical potential of their instrument Picture Quote #1

The fact is all golfers are equipment junkies and professional golfers are the worst of the lot. They’ll do anything to find the perfect putter even though they’ll insist no such instrument exists Picture Quote #1

Color is like music. The palette is an instrument that can be orchestrated to build form Picture Quote #1

Then very slowly I go to slightly lighter colors until little by little, the forms begin to take shape and I start to see what is happening. Since I never plan in advance, I simply let myself be led by instinct, taste and intuition. And it is in this manner that I find myself creating visions that I have never before imagined. And little by little certain color effects develop that excite me and I find the painting itself leading me on and I become only an instrument of a greater, wiser force... or being... or intelligence than I myself am Picture Quote #1

Prayer is a fine, delicate instrument. To use it right is a great art, a holy art. There is perhaps no greater art than the art of prayer. Yet the least gifted, the uneducated and the poor can cultivate the holy art of prayer Picture Quote #1

Language is the principal tool with which we communicate; but when words are used carelessly or mistakenly, what was intended to advance mutual understanding may in fact hinder it; our instrument becomes our burden Picture Quote #1

A century that began with children having virtually no rights is ending with children having the most powerful legal instrument that not only recognizes but protects their human rights Picture Quote #1

If a photographer cares about the people before the lens and is compassionate, much is given. It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument Picture Quote #1

I’ve always wanted to be aware of what’s going on around me, and I’ve wanted to use photography as an instrument of research into and reporting on the life of my own time Picture Quote #1
