- "Rameau had soon so many admirers of his own, and met with so much opposition from the admirers of Lulli that two parties of Lullists and of Ramists were formed."
- "In opposition to the beliefs of the Lullists, the Ramists sought to dispel conventionalized ballets that treated of gods and godesses, demi-gods and heroes acting in a preconceived manner that displayed the grandeurs of their divinity, and substituted a ballet depicting the world as it exists."
- "The war between Lullists and Ramists represents a variation on the French–Italian theme, for the Lullists castigated Rameau’s music for its Italian virtuosity and eroticism devoid of true expression. This new conflict also reflects a new setting for the old sexual stereotyping, which pitted the conservative old father against the radical young daughter as advocates, respectively, of traditional and modern musical styles."
