Don't only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets; art deserves that, for it and knowledge can raise man to the Divine.
From Ludwig van Beethoven
Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman.
Off with you! You're a happy fellow, for you'll give happiness and joy to many other people. There is nothing better or greater than that!
Only the pure in heart can make a good soup.
Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.
A great poet is the most precious jewel of a nation.
Music is the wine which inspires one to new generative processes, and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious wine for mankind and makes them spiritually drunken.
Beethoven can write music, thank God, but he can do nothing else on earth.
This is the mark of a really admirable man: steadfastness in the face of trouble.
Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend.
