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

Mozart is the incarnation of music.

I tell you before God, and as an honest man, your son (W A Mozart)is the greatest composer known to me by person and repute, he has taste and what is more the greatest skill in composition.

Cheer up, children, I am all right.

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.

Rules are my very humble, obedient servants.
