More quotes by 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
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
She's only pretty in that she has two small black eyes and a good figure.
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
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
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
Music is my life and my life is music. Anyone who does not understand this is not worthy of God.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
To my eyes and ears the organ will ever be the King of Instruments.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Writing music is my one and only passion and joy.
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
Melody is the essence of music. I compare a good melodist to a fine racer, and counterpoints to hack post-horses.
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
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
It is a mistake to think that the price of my art has become easy to me.
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
Love guards the heart from the abyss.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Silence is very important. The silence between the notes are as important as the notes themselves.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I never lie down at night without reflecting that, young as I am, I may not live to see another day.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I am never happier than when I have something to compose, for that, after all, is my sole delight and passion
