1. One can ascend to a higher development only by bringing rhythm and repetition into one’s life. Rhythm holds sway in all nature. Rudolf Steiner
2. An artist must possess Nature. He must identify himself with her rhythm, by efforts that will prepare the mastery which will later enable him to express himself in his own language. Henri Matisse
3. Rhythm is one of the principal translators between dream and reality. Rhythm might be described as, to the world of sound, what light is to sight. It shapes and gives new meaning. Edith Sitwell
