Pianistic/Music Quotes Thread

[josh93248]

Hello everyone!

I invite you all to share your favourite quotes about the piano, pianists, composers, music etc.

I actually can't think of any I really like off the top of my head, which is why I started this thread and I like a good quote

I like this one of Rubinstein.
"In art, identity is very important - he is Joe Smith, and nobody else!- if someone says, "He is the second Liszt, or the second Paderewski, it is already wrong."
