Mozart is the musical Christ.

Music possesses much richer means of expression and it is a more subtle medium for translating the 1000 shifting moments of the feelings of the soul.

Truly there would be reason to go mad were it not for music.

Mozart is the highest, the culminating point that beauty has attained in the sphere of music.

Where the heart does not enter; there can be no music.

To regret the past, to hope in the future, and never to be satisfied with the present: that is what I spend my whole life doing

What I need is to believe in myself again — for my faith has been greatly undermined; it seems to me my role is over.
