'There is nothing more notable in Socrates than that he found time, when he was an old man, to learn music and dancing, and thought it time well spent.'
~ Michel de Montaigne
"If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.
That strain again! it had a dying fall:
O, it came o’er my ear like the sweet sound 1
That breathes upon a bank of violets,
Stealing and giving odour!"
William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
Twelfth Night. Act i. Sc. 1.
