Frederic Chopin Quotes

Oh, how miserable it is to have no one to share your sorrows and joys, and, when your heart is heavy, to have no soul to whom you can pour out your woes Picture Quote #1

I am not fitted to give concerts. The audience intimidates me, I feel choked by its breath, paralyzed by its curious glances, struck dumb by all those strange faces Picture Quote #1

Concerts are never real music, you have to give up the idea of hearing in them all the most beautiful things of art Picture Quote #1

A well formed technique, it seems to me, can control and vary a beautiful sound quality Picture Quote #1

They want me to give another concert but I have no desire to do so. You cannot imagine what a torture the three days before a public appearance are to me Picture Quote #1

With tears and sobs we sealed a vow to belong to each other alone Picture Quote #1

To be a great composer requires immense experience... One acquires this by listening not only to other men’s work, but above all to one’s own! Picture Quote #1
