“There ought to be but one large art warehouse in the world, to which the artist could carry his art-works, and from which he could carry away whatever he needed. As it is, one must be half a tradesman.”
— Conversations (January 1801)
“Musik höhere Offenbarung ist als alle Weisheit und Philosophie.”
— Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.
“Music is indeed the mediator between the spiritual and sensual life.”

“The world is a king, and like a king, desires flattery in return for favor; but true art is selfish and perverse — it will not submit to the mold of flattery.”

“Ach du erbärmlicher Schuft, was ich scheiße ist besser, als was du je gedacht.”
