Beethoven can write music, thank God, but he can do nothing else on earth.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Yet it was impossible for me to say to people, 'Speak louder, shout, for I am deaf.'

Ludwig van Beethoven
It seemed unthinkable for me to leave the world forever before I had produced all that I felt called upon to produce
Ludwig van Beethoven
Only the flint of a man's mind can strike fire in music.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Rossini would have been a great composer if his teacher had spanked him enough on his backside.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Oh you men who think or say that I am malevolent, stubborn, or misanthropic, how greatly do you wrong me. You do not know the secret cause which makes me seem that way to you. Oh how harshly was I flung back by the doubly sad experience of my bad hearing.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Never forget the days I spent with you. Continue to be my friend, as you will always find me yours.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Richard Wagner commenting on the music of Ludvig Van Beethoven: He was a Titan, wrestling with the Gods.
Ludwig van Beethoven
To do good whenever one can, to love liberty above all else, never to deny the truth, even though it be before the throne.
Ludwig van Beethoven
But what a humiliation for me when someone standing next to me heard a flute in the distance and I heard nothing, or someone standing next to me heard a shepherd singing and again I heard nothing. Such incidents drove me almost to despair a little more of that and I would have ended my life - it was only my art that held me back.
Ludwig van Beethoven
There is no loftier mission than to approach the Godhead more nearly than other mortals, and by means of that contact to spread the rays of the Godhead through the human race.
Ludwig van Beethoven
such incidents brought me to the verge of despair, but little more and I would have put an end to my life - only art it was that withheld me, - ah, it seemed impossible to leave the world until I had produced all that I had felt called upon to produce.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Men are not only together when they are with each other even the distant and the dead live with us.
Ludwig van Beethoven
There is no loftier mission than to approach the Divinity nearer than other men, and to disseminate the divine rays among mankind.
Ludwig van Beethoven
