Quotes by Brendan Slocumb  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Who you are goes far beyond what you look like. My hope is that Ray’s story will inspire all of you—white or Black, Asian or Native American, straight or gay, transgender or cisgender, blond or dark haired, tall or short, big feet or small—to do what you love. Inspire those around you to do what they love, too. It might just pay off. Alone, we are a solitary violin, a lonely flute, a trumpet singing in the dark. Together, we are a symphony.”
Brendan Slocumb, The Violin Conspiracy

“We’re here for a reason. I believe a bit of the reason is to throw little torches out to lead people through the dark.”
Brendan Slocumb, The Violin Conspiracy

“He would tell you that music is truly a universal language, and that we the listeners will always impose our own fears and biases, our own hopes and hungers on whatever we hear. He would tell you that the rhythm that spurred on Tchaikovsky is the same rhythm that a kid in a redneck North Carolina town would beat with a stick against a fallen tree. It is a rhythm in all of us. Music is about communication, a way of touching your fellow man, beyond and above and below language. It is a language all its own.”
Brendan Slocumb, The Violin Conspiracy
