More quotes by 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
To every good friend I send my greet feet addio nitwit. Love true true true until the grave, if I live that long and do behave.
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 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
A bachelor, in my opinion, is only half alive.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.
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
I cannot write in verse, for I am no poet. I cannot arrange the parts of speech with such art as to produce effects of light and shade, for I am no painter. Even by signs and gestures I cannot express my thoughts and feelings, for I am no dancer. But I can do so by means of sounds, for I am a musician.
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 pay no attention whatever to anybody's praise or blame. I simply follow my own feelings.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Music, in even the most terrible situations, must never offend the ear but always remain a source of pleasure.
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
You know that I become quite powerless whenever I am obliged to write for an instrument which I cannot bear.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Music is my life and my life is music. Anyone who does not understand this is not worthy of God.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
God first, then papa.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
What's even worse than a flute? - Two flutes!
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Whoever is most impertinent has the best chance.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
If people could see into my heart, I should almost feel ashamed - all there is cold, cold as ice.
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
I am never happier than when I have something to compose, for that, after all, is my sole delight and passion
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
