More quotes by R. Murray Schafer
Still the noise in the mind: that is the first task - then everything else will follow in time.
R. Murray Schafer
The earth forms the body of an instrument, across which strings are stretched and are tuned by a divine hand. We must try once again to find the secret of that tuning.
R. Murray Schafer
Someone once said that the two most important things in developing taste were sensitivity and intelligence. I don't think this is so I'd rather call them curiosity and courage. Curiosity to look for the new and the hidden courage to develop your own tastes regardless of what others might say or think.
