Sorry, I meant to include the following info and link:
The Columbia World of Quotations. 1996.
QUOTATION:
Music has charms to soothe a savage breast,To soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak.
ATTRIBUTION:
William Congreve (1670–1729), British dramatist. Almeria, in The Mourning Bride, act 1, sc. 1 (1697). Opening lines of play.
As I told Lovely Husband, I like to think of this as a "learning blog." Or rather, a "showing off blog." Same difference.
