I am hitting my head against the walls, but the walls are giving way.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

I beg of you... never assume an inner or an outer pose, never a disguise.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

It is a funny thing, but when I am making music, all the answers I seek for in life seem to be there, in the music. Or rather, I should say, when I am making music, there are no questions and no need for answers.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

Tradition is not the worship ...

Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

We all return. It is this certainty that gives meaning to life and it does not make the slightest difference whether or not in a later incarnation we remember the former life. What counts is not the individual and his comfort, but the great aspiration to the perfect and the pure which goes on in each incarnation.

I don't let myself get carried away by my own ideas; I abandon 19 out of 20 of them every day.

Gustav Mahler 106 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. Christians call this "eternal blessedness." It is a necessity of man for growth and joy.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

God can only be comprehended ...

God can only be comprehended as Love.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

Tradition is the spreading of fire and not the veneration of ashes.

Don't bother to look, I've composed all this already.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

If a composer could say what ...

If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

Fortunately, something always...

Fortunately, something always remains to be harvested. So let us not be idle.

I live like a Hottentot. I cannot exchange one sensible word with anyone.

Gustav Mahler 106 quotes

The spirit can assert itself ...

The spirit can assert itself only through the medium of clear form.

The real art of conducting consists in transitions.

Spring won't let me stay in this house any longer! I must get out and breathe the air deeply again.

I don't choose what I compose. It chooses me.

My time will come, that is: after the finish of the recurring song cycles
