"Christianity helps us face the music even when we don’t like the tune." ― Phillips Brooks Topic(s): Music More From Phillips Brooks "Charity should begin at home, but should not stay there." "Be patient and understanding. Life is too short to be vengeful or malicious." "Happiness is the natural flower of duty." More In Music "My life had become a catastrophe. I had no idea how to turn it around. My band had broken up. I had almost lost my family. My whole life had devolved into a disaster. I believe that the police officer who stopped me at three a.m. that morning saved my life."― Trey Anastasio "Music rhythms are mathematical patterns. When you hear a song and your body starts moving with it, your body is doing math. The kids in their parents’ garage practicing to be a band may not realize it, but they’re also practicing math."― Kareem Abdul-Jabbar "Perhaps when music has been shouting for so long, a quieter voice seems attractive."― Brian Eno
