Music Is A Kind Of Harmonious Language.

Wagner Has Lovely Moments But Awful Quarters Of An Hour.

Beethoven I Take Twice A Week, Haydn Four Times, And Mozart Every Day.

One Can't Judge Wagner's Opera Lohengrin After A First Hearing, And I Certainly Don't Intend To Hear It A Second Time.

Answer Them Critics With Silence And Indifference. It Works Better, I Assure You, Than Anger And Argument. . . .

If Beethoven Is A Prodigy Of Man, Bach Is A Miracle Of God.
