Text Quotes
I don’t choose what I compose. It chooses me.  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) The point is not to take the world’s opinion as a guiding star but to go one’s way in life and working unerringly, neither depressed by failure nor seduced by applause.  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) I have become a different person. I don’t know whether this person is better, he certainly is not happier.  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) That which draws us by its mystical force; what every created thing, even the very stones, feels with absolute certainty as the center of its being... is the force of love.

It chooses me  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) To write a symphony is, for me, to construct a world  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) Tradition is tending the flame, not worshiping the ashes  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) I beg of you... never assume an inner or an outer pose, never a disguise  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) The real art of conducting consists in transitions  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) A symphony must be like the world. It must contain everything  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) All that is not perfect down to the smallest detail is doomed to perish  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) An operetta is simply a small and gay opera  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) Behind me the branches of a wasted and sterile existence are cracking  (Gustav Mahler Quotes) It is easier to achieve a desired result in short pieces  (Gustav Mahler Quotes)
