Discipline, Work. Work, Discipline.

Tradition Is Laziness.

It Is Always The Same With Me; Only When I Experience Something Do I Compose, And Only When Composing Do I Experience! After All, A Musician's Nature Can Hardly Be Expressed In Words.

If A Composer Could Say What He Had To Say In Words He Would Not Bother Trying To Say It In Music.

It Should Be One’s Sole Endeavor To See Everything Afresh And Create It Anew.

I Hope You Will No Longer Accuse Me Of A Lack Of Delicacy. As I Now Count On Your Understanding.
