"It is a common mistake these days to politicize anything and everything, including music"

- Tony Snow

About this Quote

In this quote, Tony Snow is revealing his belief that in contemporary times, people have a tendency to turn everything into a political concern, even something as universal and unifying as music. He sees this as an error, as it eliminates from the pure satisfaction and gratitude of music and instead turns it into a dissentious topic. Snow may be recommending that individuals ought to focus on the beauty and power of music instead of using it as a tool for political programs. This quote works as a reminder to not let politics eclipse the pleasure and unity that music can bring.
