Famous quotes containing the words important and/or musicians:

    The most important quality in a leader is that of being acknowledged as such.
    André Maurois (1885–1967)

    Music is of two kinds: one petty, poor, second-rate, never varying, its base the hundred or so phrasings which all musicians understand, a babbling which is more or less pleasant, the life that most composers live.
    Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
