I can't listen to that much Wagner. I start getting the urge to conquer Poland.

Art is permitted to survive only if it renounces the right to be different, and integrates itself into the omnipotent realm of the profane.

To play without passion is inexcusable!

Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.

I love rock-n-roll. I think it's an exciting art form. It's revolutionary. Still revolutionary and it changed people. It changed their hearts. But yeah, even rock-n-roll has a lot of rubbish, really bad music.

And, in the end The love you take is equal to the love you make.

I have a genuine love affair with my audience. When I`m on stage they`re not privileged to see me. It`s a privilege for me to see them.

The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.

We're not trying to change the world; just music.

Music should be something that makes you gotta move, inside or outside

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

The earth has music for those who listen.

I think another thing is that we don't really want exclusivity. We accept that it is in the artist's interest to be on sale in every place where they sell music.

Adding sound to movies would be like putting lipstick on the Venus de Milo.

You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.

Every work of art is an uncommitted crime.

Real popular culture is folk art - coalminers' songs and so forth.

Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth.

Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.

Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.
