“If one shifts the center of gravity of life out of life into the “Beyond” – into nothingness – one has deprived life as such of its center of gravity. The great lie of personal immortality destroys all rationality, all naturalness of instinct, all that is salutary, all that is life-furthering.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

“Wisdom gets half of its value from its being useful, and the other half from the being of at least one fool.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“There is no theory. You have only to listen. Pleasure is the law. I love music passionately. And because l love it, I try to free it from barren traditions that stifle it. It is a free art gushing forth — an open-air art, boundless as the elements, the wind, the sky, the sea. It must never be shut in and become an academic art.”
― Claude Debussy

“Un artiste est par définition un homme habitué au rêve et qui vit parmi des fantômes.”
― Claude Debussy
