The great Easter truth is not that we are to live newly after death - that is not the great thing - but that...we are to, and may, live nobly now because we are to live forever.

Phillips Brooks

Nobly to live, or else nobly to die,Befits proud birth.

Sophocles

It is within the power of every man to live his life nobly, but of no man to live forever. Yet so many of us hope that life will go on forever, and so few aspire to live nobly.

Seneca the Younger

Let a man nobly live or nobly die.

Sophocles

Men do not care how nobly they live, but only how long, although it is within the reach of every man to live nobly, but within no man's power to live long.

Seneca the Younger

The formats have changed so much, and even if you look at alternative music today, most of it isn't really that alternative. It's just good, strong, modern music.

Perry Farrell

I think it takes a larger nature to receive nobly than to give nobly.

Fannie Ellsworth Newberry

I end up pleading my case to alternative programmers - you're telling me that my music is too dark for pop, too pop for alternative, and urban radio won't touch it - so we have a record that doesn't fit in. And what is more alternative than that?

Halsey

The nobly born must nobly meet his fate.

Euripides

At the Throne of Glory it is not the nobly-born that are beloved, but the nobly-risen.

I. L. Peretz

The fact that we still live well cannot ease the feeling that we no longer live nobly.

John Updike

I love music, my followers love music, and I know LiveXLive is the ultimate home for the live music experience. We're going to bring great comedy and great music together like no one else is doing, and we'll have incredible access and resources to do it.

Jake Paul

It is better to be nobly remembered than nobly born.

John Ruskin

Technology has made it much easier to make and manipulate music. Studio-driven, machine-driven music does not always transcend into being a good live act. Many current acts are great live, but many cannot cut it live. The music is not organic.
