My dream is to be played everywhere, not only at the Opera.
I came into the world very young, in an age that was very old.
I am by far your superior, but my notorious modesty prevents me from saying so.
I liked the bit about quarter to eleven.
The musician is perhaps the most modest of animals, but he is also the proudest.
I eat only white foods: eggs, sugar, grated bones, the fat of dead animals; veal, salt, coconut, chicken cooked in white water; fruit mold, rice, turnips; camphorated sausage, dough, cheese (white), cotton salad, and certain fish (skinless).
