When I think of my God, my heart dances within me for joy, and then my music has to dance, too.

I was for some time quite beside myself and could not believe that Providence could have required the presence of this indispensable man in the other world so soon.

I listened more than I studied... therefore little by little my knowledge and ability were developed.

Young people can learn from my example that something can come from nothing. What I have become is the result of my hard efforts.

Since God has given me a cheerful heart, He will forgive me for serving Him cheerfully.

There was no one near to confuse me, so I was forced to become original.

Rules are my very humble, obedient servants.
