More quotes by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Writing music is my one and only passion and joy.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Music must never offend the ear, but must please the listener, or, in other words, must never cease to be music.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The taste of death is upon my lips. I feel something that is not of this earth.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
An astonishing number of kisses are flying about! I see a whole crowd of them. Ha! Ha! I have just caught three - They are delicious... I kiss you millions of times.
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
To my eyes and ears the organ will ever be the King of Instruments.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
What's even worse than a flute? - Two flutes!
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
If only the whole world could feel the power of harmony.
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
My dear sister! I’m amazed to discover that you can compose so delightfully. In a word, your Lied is beautiful. You must compose more often.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
God is ever before my eyes. I realize his omnipotence and I fear His anger but I also recognize his compassion, and His tenderness towards His creatures.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
People err who think my art comes easily to me. I assure you, dear friend, nobody has devoted so much time and thought to compositions as I. There is not a famous master whose music I have not industriously studied through many times.
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.
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
You know that I become quite powerless whenever I am obliged to write for an instrument which I cannot bear.
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
My fatherland has always the first claim on me.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The whole, though it be long, stands almost complete and finished in my mind so that I can survey it at a glance. Nor do I hear in my imagination the parts successively, but I hear them, as it were, all at once. What delight this is I cannot tell!
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Neither rejoice nor lament prematurely for whatever may happen, all will be well if we only have health for happiness exists--merely in the imagination.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
