A Terrible thing is music in general... Music makes me forget my real situation. It transports me into a state which is not my own. Under the influence of music I really seem to feel what I do not understand, to have powers which I cannot have.
Tolstoy, The Kreutzer Sonata, XXIII as quoted in Pop Music & Morality by Lex de Azevedo. Embryo Books. 1982. p.29
