Famous quotes containing the words michael and/or haydn:

    I believe in Michael Angelo, Velasquez, and Rembrandt; in the might of design, the mystery of color, the redemption of all things by Beauty everlasting, and the message of Art that has made these hands blessed.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    To the extent to which genius can be conjoined with a merely good human being, Haydn possessed genius. He never exceeds the limits that morality sets for the intellect; he only composes music which has “no past.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
