Music is ... A higher revelation than all Wisdom & Philosophy

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy, it is the wine of a new procreation, and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious wine for men and makes them drunk with the spirit.

I despise a world which does not feel that music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy

Don’t only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets, for it and knowledge can raise men to the divine.

To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable.
