She's Only Pretty In That She Has

Writing Music Is My One And Only Passion And Joy.

Music, In Even The Most Terrible Situations, Must Never Offend The Ear But Always Remain A Source Of Pleasure.

I Pay No Attention Whatever To Anybody's Praise Or Blame. I Simply Follow My Own Feelings.

As Death, When We Come To Consider It Closely, Is The True Goal Of Our Existence . . .

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.
