To perceive is to categorize, to conceptualize is to categorize, to learn is to form categories, to make decisions is to categorize.

St. Jerome

To me now, I don't really categorize music - I see music as all one.

J Hus

You really can't categorize my music, it's human music.

Kendrick Lamar

I wouldn't categorize myself as R&B or hip-hop. I don't really know how to categorize myself. I'm still working out where I fit with that stuff. I kind of think of myself as pop.

Jacob Anderson

I don't know why people have to categorize things in music under music. It's music and it's music and it's music. When you start putting genres on things, I think it's completely ridiculous, and I hate that.

Austin Carlile

I always liked really heavy guitar music, but didn't like the long-winded songs that went with it. And I always liked pop songs, but was driven nuts because the guitars were so wimpy sounding. So I decided to put the two together. That's how the Muffs started.

We like to categorize things into showy things and deep things, you know, and things that are high music - important music - and shallow music. And I think that's dangerous, because there's often a mix of both.

Joshua Bell

I would categorize Die Antwoord as pop music: extreme, futuristic pop music.

Watkin Tudor Jones

I think that it's human nature to categorize and label things. That's generally the way that the medical and psychological professions work. You look at elements of what you have, and you are able to categorize it, and then you can cure it. That's generally what works.

Michael Finkel

Some artists say 'Don't categorize me.' I'm saying 'You can't categorize me.'

Gilbert O'Sullivan

Society wants to categorize everything, but to me it's all African-American music.

Johnny Otis

For me, genres are a way for people to easily categorize music. But it doesn't have to define you. It doesn't have to limit you.

Taylor Swift

We don't want to categorize our music. Some people say you need a definite musical direction to give a group visibility.

Billy Squier

Do not categorize about music. You take each musician at the time and open yourself to that musician.

Nat Hentoff

Don't let the world define you. In the world of acting, and I think in any profession, really, people are really eager to put you in a box and categorize you as one particular thing.
