"God gave us music so that we, first and
foremost, will be guided upward by it. All
qualities are united in music: it can lift us up,
it can be capricious, it can cheer us up and
delight us, nay, with its soft, melancholy tunes,
it can even break the resistance of the
toughest character. Its main purpose,
however, is to lead our thoughts upward,
so that it elevates us, even deeply moves us."
