Ludwig Van Beethoven said this quote

I would rather write 10,000 notes than a single letter of the alphabet.

~ Ludwig Van Beethoven

The true artist is not proud, he unfortunately sees that art has no limits; he feels darkly how far he is from the goal; and though he may be admired by others, he is sad not to have reached that point to which his better genius only appears as a distant, guiding sun. I would, perhaps, rather come to you and your people, than to many rich folk who display inward poverty.

~ Ludwig Van Beethoven

Music is the one incorporeal entrance into the higher world of knowledge which comprehends mankind but which mankind cannot comprehend.

~ Ludwig Van Beethoven

Music is like a dream. One that I cannot hear.

~ Ludwig Van Beethoven
