Quote by Rove Monteux

“In the modern music industry, the streaming platforms, in their infinite wisdom, dictate what reaches our ears. The vicious cycle of recommendation engines often confines artists to their established genres, trapping them in an echo chamber of their own sound. God forbid someone ventures into new territory; the algorithms scoff and say, "No, sir, we're sticking to the algorithmically approved beats.”

“I will smile again, that’s for sure. But I will never forget the nights I cried because of you, the nights I waited for a message that never came, the nights I questioned my worth for someone who didn’t care. Those nights broke me in ways no one saw, but they also made me stronger in ways you will never understand. I will smile again, and when I do, it will hurt you because you will realize the person you once took for granted learned to live better without you.”

“This is a tale of microfilm canisters and secret police, of Communists and capitalists, of battles lost and wars won. It is the tale of a utopian dream that turned into a dystopian nightmare. It is the tale of Dmitri Shostakovich and of his beloved city, Leningrad. But at its heart, it is a story about the power of music and its meanings — a story of secret messages and doublespeak, and of how music itself is a code; how music coaxes people to endure unthinkable tragedy; how it allows us to whisper between the prison bars when we cannot speak aloud; how it can still comfort the suffering, saying, 'Whatever has befallen you — you are not alone.”

“Of all existing entertainments, musical art is the most unfortunate, inactive, and uninteresting. The true function of music is not to entertain or distract, but to attract, collect, hypnotically concentrate the feelings and thoughts of the listeners. Our muse turns away from those who by their nature are not attracted to her. She punishes with severe boredom those who seek in her but the excitement of idle thought.”

“Bob sat there stoned, his mind alternating between fantasies of gnawing on Hank's little fingers and pushing away the growing anxiety of graduation, with its implicit promises of a nine-to-five job, IRS-whittled paychecks, screaming kids, car in the shop, Pop in Ma's doghouse again, and settling into an easy chair watching the Reds and drinking a Schlitz for season after season until none of the kids could be sure where the chair ended and Pop began. And so on until death. Bob thought, If that guy can do it, I can. I'm going to learn to play the guitar.”

“There is something between us that is still there and I know it will always be there.. You know the worst thing is, we both feel it even today but we behave like nothing ever happened. We talk like strangers, we have moved on like adults, but somewhere inside, we still carry pieces of each other... with unsaid love.. And it hurts to know that our connection survived… but we didn’t.”
