Only art and science can raise men to the level of God.

The foundation of friendship demands the greatest likeness of human souls and hearts.

Only the pure in heart can make a good soup.

Art always demands of us something new.

I shall hear in heaven.

Do you think I give a damn about your and your pathetic violin?

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

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

Don't only practise your art, but force your way into its secrets.

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

Nothing is more intolerable than to have to admit to yourself your own errors.

Even in poverty I lived like a king for I tell you that nobility is the thing that makes a king

Music is indeed the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.

Hide your secret even from the closest friend; learn to be silent.

Music can change the world.

An artist is someone who has learned to trust in himself.

To play without passion is inexcusable!

Life would be flat without music. It is the background to all I do. It speaks to the heart in its own special way like nothing else.

I wish you music to help with the burdens of life ,and to help you release your happiness to others.
