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.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

More quotes by 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
Melody is the essence of music.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
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
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
Melody is the essence of music. I compare a good melodist to a fine racer, and counterpointists to hack post-horses therefore be advised, let well alone and remember the old Italian proverb: Chi sa più, meno sa Who knows most, knows least.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I must give you a piece of intelligence that you perhaps already know, namely that the ungodly arch-villain Voltaire has died miserably like a dog, just like a brute. That is his reward!
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
You know that I immerse myself in music, so to speak- that I think about it all day long- that I like experimenting- studying- reflecting.
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
I choose such notes that love one another.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
As death, when we come to consider it closely, is the true goal of our existence . . .
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Nevertheless the passions, whether violent or not, should never be so expressed as to reach the point of causing disgust and music, even in situations of the greatest horror, should never be painful to the ear but should flatter and charm it, and thereby always remain music.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I am never happier than when I have something to compose, for that, after all, is my sole delight and passion
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Handel understands effect better than any of us -- when he chooses, he strikes like a thunderbolt.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I thank my God for graciously granting me the opportunity of learning that death is the key which unlocks the door to our true happiness.
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
My fatherland has always the first claim on me.
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
Patience and tranquility of mind contribute more to cure our distempers as the whole art of medicine
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
