Quote by Freddie Mercury

We're a bit flashy, but the music's not one big noise.

We're a bit flashy, but the music's not one big noise.

Summary

This quote suggests that while something may appear showy or flamboyant on the surface, such as one's outward appearance or personality, it does not mean that everything about them is chaotic or excessive. In the context of music, it implies that even if a band or artist seems extravagant or attention-seeking visually, their music itself is still composed and well-structured, and not just a cacophony of sounds. Essentially, the quote emphasizes the importance of not judging something solely based on initial impressions, acknowledging that there can be hidden depth or coherence behind the flashy exterior.

Love loves unto purity. Love has ever in view the absolute loveliness of that which it beholds. Therefore all that is not beautiful in the beloved, all that comes between and is not of love's kind, must be destroyed. And our God is a consuming fire.
