More quotes by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Our riches, being in our brains, die with us... Unless of course someone chops off our head, in which case, we won't need them anyway.
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.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Nevertheless the passions, whether violent or not, should never be so expressed as to reach the point of disgust.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
It is when I am, as it were, completely myself, entirely alone, and of good cheer.....that ideas flow best and most abundantly. Whence and how they come, I know not, nor can I force them.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
As death, when we come to consider it closely, is the true goal of our existence . . .
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The best way to learn is through the powerful force of rhythm.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
It is a mistake to think that the price of my art has become easy to me.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
When I am traveling in a carriage, or walking after a good meal, or during the night when I cannot sleep it is on such occasions that ideas flow best and most abundantly.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
If only the whole world could feel the power of harmony.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Believe me, my sole purpose is to make as much money as possible for after good health it is the best thing to have.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I should like to know for what reason idleness is so popular with many young people that it is impossible to dissuade them from it either by words or by chastisements.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I write [music] as a sow piddles.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
True perfection in all things is no longer known or prized - you must write music that is either so simple a coachman could sing it, or so unintelligble that audiences like it simply because no sane person could understand it.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The wonders of the music of the future will be of a higher & wider scale and will introduce many sounds that the human ear is now incapable of hearing. Among these new sounds will be the glorious music of angelic chorales. As men hear these they will cease to consider Angels as figments of their imagination.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Now let the matter rest as it is, or as it may be, what avail useless speculations? What is to occur we do not know still in so far we do! what God wills!
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Directly after God in heaven comes a Papa.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Even when I can play Europe's most precious keyboard, to have to listen to people who don't understand, or do not want to understand, and who are incapable of grasping my intent, whatever I play, does surely forfeit my lust for playing at all.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
When I am at peace with myself . . . then thoughts flow into me most easily and at their best. Where they come from and how - that I cannot say . . . I'd be willing to work forever and forever if I were permitted to write only such music as I want to write and can write - which I myself think good.
