Quote

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.

Image
You know that I become quite powerless whenever I am obliged to write for an instrument which I cannot bear.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
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
Image
I am not thoughtless but am prepared for anything and as a result can wait patiently for whatever the future holds in store, and I'll be able to endure it.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
To my eyes and ears the organ will ever be the King of Instruments.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
Directly after God in heaven comes a Papa.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
I am never happier than when I have something to compose, for that, after all, is my sole delight and passion
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
When I feel well and in a good humour, or when I am taking a drive or walking after a good meal, or in the night when I cannot sleep, thoughts crowd into my mind as easily as my mind might wish.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
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
Image
She's only pretty in that she has two small black eyes and a good figure.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
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
Image
Music must never offend the ear, but must please the listener, or, in other words, must never cease to be music.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
The most necessary, most difficult and principal thing in music, that is time.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
It is a mistake to think that the price of my art has become easy to me.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
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
Image
My fatherland has always the first claim on me.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
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
Image
To talk well and eloquently is a very great art, but that an equally great one is to know the right moment to stop.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I do not hear in my imagination the parts successively, but I hear them gleich alles zusammen - at the same time all together.
