Quote

A man of ordinary talent will always be ordinary, whether he travels or not but a man of superior talent (which I cannot deny myself to be without being impious) will go to pieces if he remains forever in the same place.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Nor do I hear in my imagination the parts successively, but I hear them, as it were, all at once (gleich dies zusammen). What a delight this is I cannot tell ! All this inventing, this producing, takes place in a pleasing lively dream.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
For I assure you, without travel, at least for people from the arts and sciences, one is a miserable creature!... A man of mediocre talents always remains mediocre, may he travel or not - but a man of superior talents, which I cannot deny myself to have without being blasphemous, becomes - bad, if he always stays in the same place.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

The taste of death is upon my lips. I feel something that is not of this earth.
