More quotes by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
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, speakāand speak in such a way that people will remember it.
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
Whoever is most impertinent has the best chance.
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
Write to me and don't be so lazy. Otherwise I shall have to give you a thrashing. What fun! I'll break your head.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The most necessary, most difficult and principal thing in music, that is time.
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
Handel understands effect better than any of us -- when he chooses, he strikes like a thunderbolt.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I too had to work hard, so as not to have to work hard any longer.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
My great grandfather used to say to his wife, my great-grandmother, who in turn told her daughter, my grandmother, who repeated it to her daughter, my mother, who used to remind her daughter, my own sister, that to talk well and eloquently was a very great art, but that an equally great one was to know the right moment to stop.
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
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
As I love Mannheim, Mannheim loves me.
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
I pay no attention whatever to anybody's praise or blame. I simply follow my own feelings.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The taste of death is upon my lips. I feel something that is not of this earth.
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
Silence is very important. The silence between the notes are as important as the notes themselves.
