Handel, to him I bow the knee.

Artists are fiery; they do not weep.

It is my wish that you may have at better and freer life than I have had. Recommend virtue to your children; it alone, not money, can make them happy. I speak from experience; this was what upheld me in time of misery.

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.

The guitar is an orchestra in itself.

Art! Who comprehends her? With whom can one consult concerning this great goddess?

I know of no more sacred duty than to rear and educate a child.
