Richard Wagner
I believe in God, Mozart and Beethoven, and likewise their disciples and apostles - I believe in the Holy Spirit and the truth of the one, indivisible Art - I believe that this Art proceeds from God, and lives within the hearts of all illumined men.
Richard Wagner
Human dignity begins to assert itself only at the point where man is distinguishable from the beast by pity for it.
Richard Wagner
A political man is disgusting, but a political wife, horrible.
Richard Wagner
I hate this fast growing tendency to chain men to machines in big factories and deprive them of all joy in their efforts - the plan will lead to cheap men and cheap products.
Richard Wagner
I know absolutely nothing about music.
Richard Wagner
You know my faithfulness to you, never can another own my heart, never - never - never...
Richard Wagner
