Life's Been Nothing But Paperwork.

To Judge A Composer's Work, One Must Consider It As A Whole.

I Have Become A Different Person. I Don't Know Whether This Person Is Better, He Certainly Is Not Happier.

The Point Is Not To Take The World's Opinion As A Guiding Star But To Go One's Way In Life And Working Unerringly, Neither Depressed By Failure Nor Seduced By Applause.

I Don't Choose What I Compose. It Chooses Me.

If A Composer Could Say What He Had To Say In Words He Would Not Bother Trying To Say It In Music.
