I played the vina until my heart turned into the same instrument. Then I offered this instrument to the Divine Musician, the only muscian existing. Since then I have become His flute, and when He chooses He plays His music. The people give me credit for this music which, in reality, is not due to me, but to the Musician who plays his own instrument.

Hazrat Inayat Khan

But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright Brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

Carl Sagan

I was always an exhibitionist. I liked it when everyone laughed. But I didn't do plays in high school. I was too nervous.

Marcia Gay Harden

How come the term 'threesome' is always used in a sexual context? What, nobody plays string instruments any more?

Dov Davidoff

I'm always writing. And, I mean, I always counsel people when they call me a musician: I really do not have the skills of a musician. I really don't think like a musician, though I love music and I perform and sing.

Patti Smith

Music is emotional, and you may catch a musician in a very unemotional mood or you may not be in the same frame of mind as the musician. So a critic will often say a musician is slipping.

Nat King Cole

I've always approached the game, going back to when I got drafted in 2012 to Denver, like I was going to be the starter. That's how you have to prepare, whether you are first string, second string or third string, because you never know when something is going to happen to the guy in front of you.

Brock Osweiler

I'm a musician, I always was a musician, and now I've got a song on the radio, so I'm definitely a musician.

Tulisa

A string of reproaches against other people leads one to suspect the existence of a string of self-reproaches with the same content.

Sigmund Freud

I think for a classical musician the goal is the same as an electronic musician. A very good professional classical musician must not think about technique.

Gregor Schwellenbach

Just like an ordinary guitar string, a fundamental string can vibrate in different modes. And it is these different modes of vibration of the string that are understood in string theory as being the different elementary particles.

Lee Smolin

Being a classical musician I'm fascinated with how my colleagues, not just singers, but every musician finds ways to express something else or something new or the same ol', same ol' in classical music. I'm always in dialogue with other musicians at least orally, if I can't be with them and a lot of dead musicians as well. I've learned a lot from dead people on recordings.

Thomas Hampson

I've always done a few things at once. I've always been a musician and an actor, at the same time.

Janina Gavankar

The usual rejoinder to someone who says 'They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Galileo' is to say 'But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown'.

Carl Sagan

Men have been wise in many different modes; but they have always laughed the same way.

Samuel Johnson

As a working musician, your first instinct is to try and do your job. It wasn't always my aspiration to sing; I just wanted to be a great working musician. But then Flying Lotus suggested I try, and nothing has ever been the same since.
