I Am A Fool. That Is Well

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

To Win Applause One Must Write Stuff So Simple That A Coachman Might Sing It.

I Really Do Not Aim At Any Originality.

Neither Rejoice Nor Lament Prematurely; For Whatever May Happen, All Will Be Well If We Only Have Health; For Happiness Exists--merely In The Imagination.

Silence Is Very Important. The Silence Between The Notes Are As Important As The Notes Themselves.
