Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Music is the tonal analog

Music is the tonal analog
Single quote article, and I can't find any evidence to suggest that quote originated with anyone noble. No trace in Google of the quote as written, and substituting the alternate spelling "analogue" yields two results: one, a use on a Virgina high school music department's website, the other, a journal. (The journal does cite a reference for the quote; if it checks out it might be worth incorporating into Music.) —LrdChaos (talk) 17:57, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete One-quote pages for poor quotes should be deleted. But isn't it snobby to insist that quotes originate with someone noble? :-) --Cato 19:10, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete page move to quote to Music if solid source is found. This web site cites film theorist Susan Langer. Going to look at other hits to see if this checks out. FloNight 20:31, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Found article on Wikipedia-en, Susanne Langer. There is ample sources that cite her for the quote. Might consider a page for this person if other notable quotes are found. FloNight 20:53, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per my reasons on "A song is to the ear...". However, I'd be happy to see this on a Susanne Langer page. --Ubiquity 14:19, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete this page. An article on Susanne Langer would be fine.  Make unsourced one quote articles a speedy criterion. Tyrenius 22:59, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete (speedy maybe?) this entry, as it's useless as a stand-alone page. I've created an article on Susanne Langer, and moved this quote there with proper attribution, and added others as well. Best, Phaed r i e l  - 00:04, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per above.--Jusjih 11:37, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete especially as the quote is now in the correct place.--Poetlister 17:29, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Phaedriel and Poetlister. - Modernist 23:10, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete Thank you for your sourcing, FloNight. I think we can even speedy it with the legitimate Susanne Langer article. --Aphaia 15:14, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
