“I’m going to do what I want to do. I’m going to be who I really am. And I’m going to figure out what that is.”

— Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower (via books-n-quotes)

Hey guys! Haven’t made a quotes masterpost in a while, so I created one for the composes! And I know it’s a different header format, but I wanted to try it out! As always, I hope you enjoy these quotes and find them inspirational, like I have.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

“I pay no attention whatever to anybody’s praise or blame. I simply follow my own feelings.”

Johannes Brahms

“Without craftsmanship, inspiration is a mere reed shaken in the wind.”

Virgil Thomson

“Let your mind alone, and see what happens.”

“I don’t go around regretting things that don’t happen.”

“Try a thing you haven’t done three times. Once, to get over the fear of doing it. Twice, to learn how to do it. And a third time to figure out whether you like it or not.”

Franz Schubert

“Easy mind, light heart. A mind that is too easy hides a heart that is too heavy.”

“The moment is supreme.”

“The world resembles a stage on which every man is playing a part.”

“You believe happiness to be derived from the place in which once you have been happy, but in truth it is centered in ourselves.”

Gustav Mahler

“It should be one’s sole endeavor to see everything afresh and create it anew.”

“Fortunately, something always remains to be harvested. So let us not be idle.”

“A symphony must be like the world. It must contain everything.”

“It is easier to achieve a desired result in short pieces.”

“Never let oneself be guided by the opinion of one’s contemporaries. Continue steadfastly on one’s way.”

“The point is not to take the world’s opinion as a guiding star but to go one’s way in life and working unerringly, neither depressed by failure nor seduced by applause.”

“I don’t let myself get carried away by my own ideas - I abandon 19 out of 20 of them every day.”

Claude Debussy

“A beautiful sunset that was mistaken for a dawn.”

“Works of art make rules; rules do not make works of art.”

John Cage

“We are involved in a life that passes understanding and our highest business is our daily life.”

“We carry our homes within us which enables us to fly.”

“The first question I ask myself when something doesn’t seem to be beautiful is why do I think it’s not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason.”

“I can’t understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I’m frightened of the old ones.”

“There is no such thing as an empty space or an empty time. There is always something to see, something to hear. In fact, try as we may to make a silence, we cannot.”

“We need not destroy the past. It is gone.”

“When we separate music from life we get art.”

Leonard Bernstein

“To achieve great things, two things are needed; a plan, and not quite enough time.”

Franz Liszt

“Beware of missing chances; otherwise it may be altogether too late some day.”

“Inspiration is enough to give expression to the tone in singing, especially when the song is without words.”

George Gershwin

“Life is a lot like jazz… it’s best when you improvise.”

“True music must repeat the thought and inspirations of the people and the time.”

“I frequently hear music in the very heart of noise.”

“It is always possible to create something original.”

Ludwig van Beethoven

“I will seize fate by the throat; it shall certainly never wholly overcome me.”

“What you are, you are by accident of birth; what I am, I am by myself. There are and will be a thousand princes; there is only one Beethoven.”

“This is the mark of a really admirable man: steadfastness in the face of trouble.”

“Don’t only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets; art deserves that, for it and knowledge can raise man to the divine.”
