Richard Wagner

"Even if I know I shall never change the masses, never transform anything permanent, all I ask is that the good things also have their place, their refuge."

"Imagination creates reality."

"I hate this fast growing tendency to chain men to machines in big factories and deprive them of all joy in their efforts - the plan will lead to cheap men and cheap products."

"Divorce is one of the most financially traumatic things you can go through. Money spent on getting mad or getting even is money wasted."

"I write music with an exclamation point!"
