To be a great composer requires immense experience... One acquires this by listening not only to other men's work, but above all to one's own!
Frederic Chopin

Frederic Chopin
Play Mozart in memory of me - and I will hear you.
Frederic Chopin
If the newspapers cut me up so much that I shall not venture before the world again, I have resolved to become a house painter that would be as easy as anything else, and I should, at any rate, still be an artist!
Frederic Chopin
The earth is suffocating... Swear to make them cut me open, so that I won't be buried alive.
Frederic Chopin
