Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman.
The true artist is not proud: he unfortunately sees that art has no limits; he feels darkly how far he is from the goal, and though he may be admired by others, he is sad not to have reached that point to which his better genius only appears as a distant, guiding sun.
Beethoven an Emilie M. in Hamburg, Töplitz, 17. Juli 1812
Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.
Only the pure in heart can make a good soup.
Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.
Forever yours
Forever mine
Eternally us
Forever mine
Eternally us
