Anyone know the original source of the Bach quote?
"Beethoven tells you what it's like to be Beethoven and Mozart tells you what it's like to be human. Bach tells you what it's like to be the universe."
- gardano 10y agoI really want to know this too. Anybody? It's funny because it's true.
- CarolineW 10y agoIt appears to be original to Adams - I've found no earlier references, and every reference I've found is unattributed or explicitly attributed to Adams.
- acheron 10y agoYeah, I hadn't seen it attributed to anyone else, I just was trying to find a better citation that had when/where he said it. As Abraham Lincoln said, "don't trust quote attributions on the Internet".
