music so divine

"There is something very wonderful in music. Words are wonderful enough; but music is even more wonderful. It speaks not to our thoughts as words do; it speaks straight to our hearts and spirits, to the very core and root of our souls. Music soothes us, stirs us up; it puts noble feelings in us; it melts us to tears, we know not how: it is a language by itself, just as perfect, in its way, as speech, as words; just as divine, just as blessed."

- Charles Kingsley
