More quotes by Ludwig van Beethoven

Ludwig van Beethoven
I know no other sign of superiority than Goodness.

Ludwig van Beethoven
I am resolved to rise superior to every obstacle. With whom need I be afraid of measuring my strength? I will take Fate by the throat. It shall not overcome me. O how beautiful it is to be alive - would that I could live a thousand times!
Ludwig van Beethoven
If I contemplate myself as part of the Universe: what am I?
Ludwig van Beethoven
Artists are fiery they do not weep.
Ludwig van Beethoven
What I have in my heart and soul - must find a way out. That's the reason for music.
