Cave of Aurignac, WikiPedia, The Free Encyclopedia
Modern language must be older than the cave paintings and cave engravings and cave sculptures and dance steps in the soft clay in the caves in Western Europe, in the Aurignacian Period some 35,000 years ago, or earlier. I can't believe they did all those things and didn't also have a modern language.
Murray Gell‐Mann
There were details like clothing, hair styles and the fragile objects that hardly ever survive for the archaeologist‐musical instruments, bows and arrows, and body ornaments depicted as they were worn. …No amounts of stone and bone could yield the kinds of information that the paintings gave so freely.
Mary Leakey
The need to make music, and to listen to it, is universally expressed by human beings. I cannot imagine, even in our most primitive times, the emergence of talented painters to make cave paintings without there having been, near at hand, equally creative people making song. It is, like speech, a dominant aspect of human biology.
Lewis Thomas
I get satisfaction of three kinds. One is creating something, one is being paid for it and one is the feeling that I haven't just been sitting on my ass all afternoon. William F. Buckley, Jr.
