More quotes by Ludwig van Beethoven
How glad I am to be able to roam in the wood and thicket, among trees and flowers and rocks ... in the country, every tree seems to speak to me, saying, Holy! Holy, in the woods, there is enchantment which expresses all things.
Ludwig van Beethoven
A great poet is the most precious jewel of a nation.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend.
Ludwig van Beethoven
I liked your opera. I think I will set it to music.
Ludwig van Beethoven
It is the power of music to carry one directly into the mental state of the composer.
Ludwig van Beethoven
If I contemplate myself as part of the Universe: what am I?
Ludwig van Beethoven
From the glow of enthusiasm I let the melody escape.
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
Never forget the days I spent with you. Continue to be my friend, as you will always find me yours.
Ludwig van Beethoven
It is my belief one should not belittle the artist while, however glorious his fame may seem, his time on Mount Olympus as an honourable guest of Zeus is short. It's a pity, but all too eager will the common folk drag him from this etherial heights to the low and trodden earth.
Ludwig van Beethoven
I wish you music to help with the burdens of life ,and to help you release your happiness to others.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Recommend to your children to be virtuous, only the virtue can bring us happiness, not the money.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Recommend virtue to your children, that alone - not wealth - can give happiness. It upholds in adversity and the thought of it and my art prevents me from putting an end to my life.
Ludwig van Beethoven
He who understand my music will remain free from the miseries that the other men are dragging with them .
Ludwig van Beethoven
Music is indeed the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.
Ludwig van Beethoven
From the glow of enthusiasm I let the melody escape. I pursue it. Breathless I catch up with it. It flies again, it disappears, it plunges into a chaos of diverse emotions. I catch it again, I seize it, I embrace it with delight... I multiply it by modulations, and at last I triumph in the first theme. There is the whole symphony.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Let your deafness no longer be a secret - even in art.
Ludwig van Beethoven
I know no other sign of superiority than Goodness.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Only the flint of a man's mind can strike fire in music.
Ludwig van Beethoven
All my life I have regarded myself as one of Mozart's greatest admirers, and I will remain one until my last breath.
Ludwig van Beethoven
