[Quote No.31193] Need Area: Fun > Music
"Silence is as full of potential wisdom and wit as the unhewn marble of great sculpture. [Claude Debussy went so far as to say that music is found in the space between the notes. Avant-garde composer John Cage took this idea to an extreme. His composition 4:33 consists of just over four and a half minutes of complete silence. To this day, it's the only piece I can play on the violin!]" - Aldous Huxley
