a quote...not really understanding the meaing can somone please help me find the meaning of this quote...or give me some ideas of what it could mean
"Music saves nothing. Merciful, uncaring, it denies and breaks down all the shelters, the houses men build for themselves, that they may see the sky"
[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Hobbies category? Maybe give some free advice about: Music?
its a completely false statement about music, saying it helps nothing. ]
i no i may not agree with the other columnist, but i think it means that the music today doesnt get you anywhere,that all its about is drugs and sex, in my opinion, and they dont care who they are hurting.also i think it ruins the reality of things. and ruining the old ways ]
i think its too genralised,
in my opinion its basically saying that music destroys human hope ]
I think it means that music is powerful. ]
I think that quote means, that Music exposes everything. Meaning people write music and lyrics about every subject, even the hard ones, like rape, and killing and drugs, and abuse, and death, and war ,and government sanctioned killing, and millions of people starving, and heart break, and cheating, and prison, and drugs and addiction. Now people
who try to insulate themselves from reality. Or deny that these things happen, by hiding in their own little worlds (their houses) Once they hear the music the "truth" is exposed. or the sky is exposed. They can't deny the truth any longer.
How's that for a woman who is 52. I have two teenage boys though and they are heavy into music. heavy metal. I think that helped me to figure this out.
ONe thing though, merciful and uncaring. Those are opposite words. Unmerciful and uncaring mean the same. ]
as i see it it it means that music destroys all of the shelters of our reality and sends us to a new place the house part means that we build them so we can listen to music
