Ludwig van Beethoven
Art demands of us that we shall not stand still.
Ludwig van Beethoven
When I open my eyes I must sigh, for what I see is contrary to my religion, and I must despise the world which does not know that music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Fate gave to man the courage of endurance.
Ludwig van Beethoven
