A Great Work Is Made Out Of

It Is One Thing To Be Gifted And Quite Another Thing To Be Worthy Of One's Own Gift.

It Is Easier To Analyze A Work In Its Form, In Its Evolution, Than Simply To Love It With All The Living Forces Of Our Heart. It Is Easier To Define Its Peculiarities And Its Details Than To Draw Out Of It Its Emotion, Its Thought.

Words Created Divergencies Between Beings, Because Their Precise Meanings Put An Opinion Around The Idea. Music Only Retains The Highest And Purest Substance Of The Idea, Since It Has The Privilege Of Expressing All, Whilst Excluding Nothing.

Without A Strong Cup To Carry The Emotion, It Is Only A Curiosity. Great Art Can Come To Us Only In Strong Cups. Without Emotion, There Is Nothing To Carry.

I Adore Tradition. I Cannot Stand Habit. Simply To Repeat Is Nothing, Also To Destroy Is Nothing. Tradition Is Never Interrupted, We Are Always Evolving But Never Interrupted.
