“Keep music and art alive in our schools because the greatness of a country is not measured by wars that are won, by territory annexed or even the size of a deficit. It is measured by the beauty of the art work by talented hands, the sounds of the music created from the heart and by the wonder of the eyes and ears beholding them in joy. Art and music are the windows of the soul of any country. The greater the art created, the greater the country.”

“It's not the size..no wait...it is the size.Errors have been made...others will be blamed.Make yourself at home! Clean my kitchen.Hear no evil, see no evil, date no evil.”

“Tolerence ought to be humanities community and knowledge should be an individuals goal.”

“Our courts have their faults, as does any human institution, but in this country our courts are the great levelers, and in our courts all men are created equal.”

“Music is the art of thinking with sounds.”

“To create art with all the passion in one's soul is to live art with all the beauty in one's heart.”

“Our ancestors had fought and murdered one another, married and forged alliances, founded countries. At their best - but only for selfish reasons - they patronized art, literature, and music. But their worlds had to be overthrown by revolutions, because there was room in them only for themselves.”
