“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” ― Plato

Plato here is basically equating music with the divine - rightly so, because even though most music can be dissected into frequencies, notes, durations, attacks, decays, sustains, releases etc. etc., the best forms of music can still elevate us listeners to incredible heights.
