Music can change the world.

Music is the electric soil in which the spirit thinks, lives and invents. All that's electrical stimulates the mind to flowing surging musical creation. I am electrical by nature.

The barriers are not erected which can say to aspiring talents and industry, 'Thus far and no farther.'

Music is like a dream. One that I cannot hear.

I have never thought of writing for reputation and honor. What I have in my heart must come out; that is the reason why I compose.

The amount of money one needs is terrifying.

Only the pure in heart can make a good soup.
