Art! Who comprehends her? With whom can one consult concerning this great goddess?

Music melts all the separate parts of our bodies together.

The absence of limitations is the enemy of art.

Music is the literature of the heart; it commences where speech ends.

One thing that really appeals to me is this idea of music being a living thing that has an evolution that, in a way, enables the artist to sell a process rather than a piece of product.

Singers come and go, but if you're a good actor, you can last a long time

Every day brings a chance for you to draw in a breath, kick off your shoes, and dance.

I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.

People ask me how I make music. I tell them I just step into it. It's like stepping into a river and joining the flow. Every moment in the river has its song.

The only escape from the miseries of life are music and cats...

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

The man who writes about himself and his own time is the only man who writes about all people and all time.

I can't listen to that much Wagner. I start getting the urge to conquer Poland.

Once you become predictable, no one's interested anymore.

Being a celebrity has taught me to hide, but being an actor has opened my soul.

Art not only imitates nature, but also completes its deficiencies.

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

And I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinking.

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.
