I'm getting an ipod and it comes with a free laser engraving on the back. You get two lines of text, 27 characters per line. I'm going to use one line for my name, and the other for the quote. Got any suggestions of U2 or Bono quotes that are about the power of music?

I need to buy it tonight so quick replys are appreciated.



THANKS THANKS THANKS

Hey some of these I think have nothing to do with music but heyl, it's a quick reply :wink:

+ The music that really turns me on is either running toward God or away from God. Both recognize the pivot, that God is at the center of the jaunt.

+ I went through a sort of awkward phase of thinking I was stupid. My schoolwork goes to shit. I can't concentrate. I started to believe the world outside. Music was my revenge on that.

+ I'm not exaggerating to say that. This music changed the shape of the room. It changed the shape of the world outside the room; the way you looked out the window and what you were looking at. (listening to John Lennon)

+ I'm the Imelda Marcos of sunglasses.

+ At a certain point, I just felt, you know, God is not looking for alms, God is looking for action.

+ Even though I'm a believer, I still find it really hard to be around other believers. They make me nervous, they make me twitch. I sorta watch my back. Except when I'm with the black church. I feel relaxed, feel at home; my kids.. I can take them there; there's singing, there's music.

+ The world is more malleable than you think and it's waiting for you to hammer it into shape.

+ Every age has its massive moral blind spots. We might not see them, but our children will.

+ Music was an alarm bell for me, it woke me up to the world.

+ Don't get me too excited because I use four letter words when I get excited. (All the above by Bono)

The question is, "What are you saying with the guitar?" - Not "Can you play this link?" or "What's your speed like?"

It's, "What are you saying with your instrument? What is being communicated in this song?"
- The Edge, U2

Whenever I start working on a song, I immediately try to forget everything, to empty my hands and head of anything that may be hanging over from another song or album.

I try to approach it like this is the first time I've ever played guitar. What am I going to do?

"Rock 'n' roll is ridiculous. It's absurd. In the past, U2 was trying to duck that. Now we're wrapping our arms around it and giving it a great big kiss." I think Bono said it

hey the power of music?? Hmm I don't think these help much :huh: Bono said that music can change the world, his world, it can change the temperature of the room you are in. He said music is like smells... I think that is in teh HTDAAB DVD, but I dunno :shrug:
