Why do rhythms and melodies, which are composed of sound, resemble the feelings, while this is not the case for tastes, colours or smells? Can it be because they are mo-
tions, as actions are also motions? Energy itself belongs to feeling and creates feeling. But tastes and colours do not act in the same way.
Aristotle, Prob. xix. 29
