There Are Only Two Things

There Are Only Two Things Worth Aiming For, Good Music And A Clean Conscience.

There Are Only Twelve Tones And They Need To Be Treated Carefully.

Tonality Is A Natural Force, Like Gravity.

My God, How Can Anyone Ever Be A Master Of Music?

Music, As Long As It Exists, Will Always Take Its Departure From The Major Triad And Return To It. The Musician Cannot Escape It Any More Than The Painter His Primary Colors Or The Architect His Three Dimensions.
