The Most Necessary, Most Difficult And Principal

The Most Necessary, Most Difficult And Principal Thing In Music, That Is Time.

Melody Is The Essence Of Music.

To My Eyes And Ears The Organ Will Ever Be The King Of Instruments.

The Taste Of Death Is Upon My Lips. I Feel Something That Is Not Of This Earth.
