Let us take our children seriously! Everything else follows from this...only the best is good enough for a child.

Music is nourishment, and a comforting elixir. Music multiplies the beauty of life and all its values.

Often a single experience will open the young soul to music for a whole lifetime

There is no complete spiritual life without music, for the human soul has regions which can be illuminated only by music.

We should read music in the same way that an educated adult will read a book: in silence, but imagining the sound.

Our age of mechanization leads along a road ending with man himself as a machine. Only the spirit of singing can save us from this fate.

Let us take our children seriously! Everything else follows from this...only the best is good enough for a child.
