“Music conveys to us itself!”
“I wish there was a word more than ‘love’ itself to convey what I feel for you.”
“Wilderness. The word itself is music.”
“I had to say to myself, 'Don't write the music. Let the music write itself.”
“A piece of music is an experience to be taken by itself.”
“Therefore nothing were better for us than soon to be conveyed to the last dance, and covered with shovels.”
