Truth Is A Great Flirt.

A Good Cuban Cigar Closes The Doors To The Vulgarities Of The World.

Music Embodies Feeling Without Forcing It To Contend And Combine With Thought, As It Is Forced In Most Arts And Especially In The Art Of Words.

My Sole Ambition As A Composer Is To Hurl My Javelin Into The Infinite Space Of The Future.

I Did Not Compose My Work As One Might Put On A Church Vestment... Rather It Sprung From The Truly Fervent Faith Of My Heart, Such As I Have Felt It Since My Childhood.

Music Is Never Stationary; Successive Forms And Styles Are Only Like So Many Resting-places - Like Tents Pitched And Taken Down Again On The Road To The Ideal.
