The soul of the universe

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.”

    Nice quote! I keep a special selection of CDs on my desk. Some inspire me, some soothe me, some fend off my depression, and others fire up my imagination. I find it amazing that music and mathematics are so closely related.

      I know, right? I love music, but I hate math… maybe that’s why I’m not a musician ;-)

      I have a playlist of music that I relate to my characters and when I sit down to writing, I listen to it to get in the mood.
      Music is powerful, I’m telling you.

    Great quote and some really beautiful black and white photography! I love looking at things from that perspective, or in monochrome.

      Me too. I think monochrome can be far more effective and involving than colours.

    As others have said above, great quote. Without music and art the world would be a lesser place indeed.

      I think that world could never exist. Humanity cannot excist without arts and expression. That’s how we are :-)

      Thanks. I like how imagins can tell stories without world. I like the way this empowers ‘readers’ to find their own stories :-)

    Stunning photos! They were so full of emotion that I was certain there was music playing… I guess a symphony of expression. :)
