When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.
I don't know anything about music. In my line you don't have to.
Art is never finished, only abandoned.
It's so sweet, I feel like my teeth are rotting when I listen to the radio.

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

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