The works of Mozart may be easy to read, but they are very difficult to interpret. The least speck of dust spoils them. They are clear, transparent, and joyful as a spring, and not only those muddy pools which seem deep only because the bottom cannot be seen.
Wanda Landowska
Image
We cannot despair about mankind knowing that Mozart was a man.
Albert Einstein
Image
One day the last portrait of Rembrandt and the last bar of Mozart will have ceased to be — though possibly a colored canvas and a sheet of notes will remain — because the last eye and the last ear accessible to their message will have gone.
Oswald Spengler
Image
My music wasn't written by Mozart, Beethoven, Bach or Schubert. It's written by God and me. They go a one and a two and up. We start on the downbeat. Bam! And that's where we got them.
James Brown
Image
How pleasant it is to be ignorant! Not to know exactly who Mozart was, to ignore his origin, his influence, the details of his technique! To just let him lead one by the hand.
Maria Luisa Bombal
Image
Beethoven I take twice a week, Haydn four times, and Mozart every day.
Gioachino Rossini
Image
A mathematician will recognise Cauchy, Gauss, Jacobi or Helmholtz after reading a few pages, just as musicians recognise, from the first few bars, Mozart, Beethoven or Schubert.
Ludwig Boltzmann
Image
How did Haydn and Mozart produce such vast quantities of formally perfect art? They worked from a perfect formula. In music, Beethoven was the Great Emancipator.
Edward Abbey
Image
If you go to Japan for instance, you should know that they have a different way of playing Beethoven or Brahms. But if you play with them Mozart, Debussy, Mendelssohn, they have a wonderful light feeling for that.
Kurt Masur
Image
One day I would be a better hand at the game. One day I would learn how to laugh. Pablo was waiting for me, and Mozart too.
Hermann Hesse
Image
Together with the puzzle, Mozart gives you the solution.
Ferruccio Busoni
Image
I'll go to the south of Sicily in the winter, and paint memories of Arles – I'll buy a piano and Mozart me that – I'll write long sad tales about people in the legend of my life – This part is my part of the movie, let's hear yours
Jack Kerouac
Image
Mozart died too late rather than too soon.
Glenn Gould
Image
Sometimes the impact of Mozart's music is so immediate that the vision in the mind remains blurred and incomplete, while the soul seems to be directly invaded, drenched in wave upon wave of melancholy.
Stendhal
Image
My mind and fingers have worked like the damned. Homer, the Bible, Plato, Locke, Lamartine, Chateaubriand, Beethoven, Bach, Hummel, Mozart, Weber are all around me. I study them. I devour them with fury.
Franz Liszt
Image
Picasso painted with passion, Mozart composed with it. A child plays with it all day long. You may think you’ve lost your passion, or that you can’t identify it, or that you have so much of it, it threatens to overwhelm you. None of these is true.
Steven Pressfield
Image
I like entertainment. I'm an innate admirer of good entertainment. I'll listen to MTV, I'll listen to Mozart, I'll listen to anything that has a good element in it.
Jack Kirby
Image
All my life I have regarded myself as one of Mozart's greatest admirers, and I will remain one until my last breath.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Image
The fact that most people do not understand and respect the very best things, such as Mozart's concertos, is what permits men like us to become famous.
Johannes Brahms
Image
I've outdone anyone you can name - Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Strauss. Irving Berlin, he wrote 1,001 tunes. I wrote 5,500.
James Brown
Image
Mozart. Vivaldi. Van Gogh. Stretched their genius on struggle, stress and survival.
Billy Cannon
Image
Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky were not classical musicians while they were alive and active, they were the rock stars of their day.
Seymour Stein
Image
Mozart's music is an invitation to the listener to venture just a little out of the sense of his own subjectivity.
Karl Barth
Image
O Mozart, immortal Mozart, how many, how infinitely many inspiring suggestions of a finer, better life you have left in our souls!
Franz Schubert
