I worked hard. Anyone who works as hard as I did can achieve the same results.
I have always kept one end in view, namely ... to conduct a well-regulated church music to the honour of God.
God's gift to his sorrowing creatures is a joy worthy of their destiny.
Bring me coffee before I turn into a goat!
If I decide to be an idiot, then I'll be an idiot on my own accord.
The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul.
