Beethoven can write music, thank God, but he can do nothing else on earth.

Music is mediator between spiritual and sensual life.

Music is the wine which inspires one to new generative processes, and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious wine for mankind and makes them spiritually drunken.

Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears form the eyes of woman.

Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.

Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend.

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.
