The earth has music for those who listen.

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.

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

It's so sweet, I feel like my teeth are rotting when I listen to the radio.

Comedy is the blues for people who can?t sing.

Art is permitted to survive only if it renounces the right to be different, and integrates itself into the omnipotent realm of the profane.

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

Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.

Adding sound to movies would be like putting lipstick on the Venus de Milo.

And, in the end The love you take is equal to the love you make.

You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.

When you were young, and your heart, was an open book. You used to say, live and let live.

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

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

Let silence be the art you practice.

I accept chaos, I'm not sure whether it accepts me.

Music melts all the separate parts of our bodies together.

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.

Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth.

I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.

The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.
