More quotes by Isaac Stern
Music is like making love: either all or nothing.
Isaac Stern
I have a responsibility to pass on to the next generation what I learned from my teachers, ... It keeps me young and reminds me where I came from. Teaching young artists is like giving water to a flower.
Isaac Stern
Outsiders always look for a reason to explain why they are not inside. They never look in the mirror. Let's face it, the profession I'm in is a very simple and a very cruel one. There is no way that you can create a career for someone without talent and no way to stop a career of someone with talent.
Isaac Stern
New York is the dirtiest, largest, ugliest, broken-down city in the world-but it's the only one.
Isaac Stern
Playing a concerto with Zubin is like being surrounded by a well-loved, cashmere-lined silk glove.
Isaac Stern
The greatest wealth of this nation is not only the mergers of giant corporations or the possibility of further globalization of the infrastructure of the world. In the United States, our greatest single source of wealth is the minds and talent of our young people. Not to use it is stupid - to waste it is a crime.
Isaac Stern
A great conductor possesses that certain charisma and talent that demand the ears and the attention of an audience. I can't tell you how that happens, but I'm sure it has an inner basis that is never learned.
Isaac Stern
It is only through failure and through experiment that we learn and grow.
