This is one of my favorite MT texts because it is so practical. I have turned back to it time and time again.

“Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, and life to everything. It is the essence of order, and leads to all that is good, just and beautiful, of which it is the invisible, but nevertheless dazzling, passionate, and eternal form.”
— Plato

If music be the soul of love, play on. - Shakespeare (Twelfth Night)

Music hath charms to soothe a savage breast, to soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak. - Congreve (The Mourning Bride)
