Jeffrey Beaumont: It's a strange world.
There was a time when the world acted on books; now books act on the world.
It's not the end of the world to lose.
Politics and ethics belong to different worlds.
Wuxia is a fantasy world exists in everyone's mind.
Even I had no opportunity to conduct very many concerts after World War II.
During World War II, the pilot losses were staggering. In some bombing raids, as many as 80% of the planes that left did not return.
I suffocated for hours, until I turned on...music.
Next to music, beer was best.
The sound of music, makes me dance.
I had a very strong interest in music, specifically the piano from a very small age.
When I'm alone, I work sometimes with music, sometimes without and sometimes just listening to NPR.
It was amazing to me that, all of a sudden, I was hearing my music on the radio and coming out of cars.
Music has always been such an amazing tool for me to access self and emotion.
I've always been attracted to classic patterns in architecture, music and drama.
I love putting the music together. It's like art.
Music is art to me, and you don't censor art. You don't go into a museum and censor things.
When we separate music from life we get art.
Music is the art of the prophets and the gift of God.
Success and the art of making music are two different things for me.
I've always felt that music is an art form that deserves to live the life of the artist.
