“Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman.”
― Ludwig van Beethoven

“I would rather write 10,000 notes than a single letter of the alphabet.”
― Ludwig van Beethoven

“What's even worse than a flute? - Two flutes!”
― Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

“After playing Chopin, I feel as if I had been weeping over sins that I had never committed, and mourning over tragedies that were not my own. Music always seems to me to produce that effect. It creates for one a past of which one has been ignorant, and fills one with a sense of sorrows that have been hidden from one’s tears.”
― Oscar Wilde
