Famous quotes by Leonard Bernstein:

""Life without music is unthinkable. Music without life is academic. That is why my contact with music is a total embrace.""

"In the olden days, everybody sang. You were expected to sing as well as talk. It was a mark of the cultured man to sing. To know music."

"It was an initiation into the love of learning, of learning how to learn . . . as a matter of interdisciplinary cognition - that is, learning to know something by its relation to something else."

"Technique is communication: the two words are synonymous in conductors."

"I'm not interested in having an orchestra sound like itself. I want it to sound like the composer."

"The key to the mystery of a great artist is that for reasons unknown, he will give away his energies and his life just to make sure that one note follows another... and leaves us with the feeling that something is right in the world."

"This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before."

"A liberal is a man or a woman or a child who looks forward to a better day, a more tranquil night, and a bright, infinite future."

"Music . . . can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable."

"To achieve great things, two things are needed; a plan, and not quite enough time."

"Music can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable."

"In the olden days, everybody sang. You were expected to sing as well as talk. It was a mark of the cultured man to sing."
