Flute quotes :)

"Playing a flute is like writing a book. You're telling what's in your heart... It's easier to play if it's right from your heart. You get the tone, and the fingers will follow." ~Eddie Cahill~

" It is only a tool.
A tool forged from
the metals of the
Earth. From Silver.
From Gold. Fashioned
by history. Crafted
by Masters. It is a tool
that shapes mood and
Culture. It enraptures.
Sometimes distracts.
Exhilarates and soothes.
Sings and weeps. Now
take up the tool
and sculpt Music
from the air."
- unnamed Muramatsu employee, on the World Wide Web

"Each note flies from his flute towards my cheek like a mysterious kiss." ~Ravel (from the song La Flute)~

All three of these quotes by the authors, were from this site: http://www.mostlywind.co.uk/anecdote_flute.html
