»In a sense, all music is sacred, because it seems to come to us from a divine source.«

»Music is important in overcoming sorrow. Music can heal.«

»I think that music itself creates my energy – the more I perform it, the more I love it; there is no way I can become bored with what I am doing. I think that I still have some years ahead of me, and I hope that I can still accomplish something for people who love music.«

»Musik ist so präzise wie Mathematik. Mit einem Unterschied: Mathematik ist kalt, Musik bedeutet Gefühl.«
