Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
To my eyes and ears the organ will ever be the King of Instruments.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
One must not make oneself cheap here - that is a cardinal point - or else one is done. Whoever is most impertinent has the best chance.

The taste of death is upon my lips. I feel something that is not of this earth.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
All I insist on, and nothing else, is that you should show the whole world that you are not afraid. Be silent, if you choose but when it is necessary, speak—and speak in such a way that people will remember it.
