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

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.

Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.

What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure.

Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world.

Every work of art is an uncommitted crime.

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

Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

The music industry can make you feel like a prostitute.

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

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

Let silence be the art you practice.

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

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

Music melts all the separate parts of our bodies together.

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

Rock and roll music, if you like it, if you feel it, you can't help but move to it. That's what happens to me. I can't help it.

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

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

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

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