More quotes by Ludwig van Beethoven
One must not hold one's self so divine as to be unwilling occasionally to make improvements in one's creations.
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

Ludwig van Beethoven
She was such a good loving mother, my best friend. Oh, who was happier than I when I could still say the dear name Mother, and it was heard, and whom can I say it to now?
Ludwig van Beethoven
You're a happy fellow, for you'll give happiness and joy to many other people. There is nothing better or greater than that.

Hide your secret even from the closest friend learn to be silent.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Artists are fiery they do not weep.

Then let us all do what is right, strive with all our might toward the unattainable, develop as fully as we can the gifts God has given us, and never stop learning
Ludwig van Beethoven
He who understand my music will remain free from the miseries that the other men are dragging with them .
