"Music, the greatest good that mortals know, and all of heaven we have below" — Joseph Addison

A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament

Fashion is only the attempt to realize art in living forms and social intercourse

Life imitates art far more than art imitates life

My imagination can picture no fairer happiness than to continue living for art.

Every production of an artist should be the expression of an adventure of his soul.

All art is but imitation of nature
