I was doing these performance art pop music pieces in the city. And they were a bit on the eccentric side I suppose. So people started to call me Gaga after the Queen song 'Radio Gaga.'

Music is your own experience your own thoughts your wisdom. If you don't live it it won't come out of your horn. They teach you there's a boundary line to music. But man there's no boundary line to art.

Film as dream film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way film does and goes directly to our feelings deep down into the dark rooms of our souls.

Art gives me the freedom I don't have when I make music.

I can't satisfy myself with just trying to tie all of my imagination into music especially when music is not appreciated as an art form as much as it used to be.

I'm enamored with the art world. Anytime you look at anything that's considered artistic there's a commercial world around it: the ballet opera any kind of music. It can't exist without it.

Like music and art love of nature is a common language that can transcend political or social boundaries.

Music happens to be an art form that transcends language.

What I've discovered is that in art as in music there's a lot of truth-and then there's a lie. The artist is essentially creating his work to make this lie a truth but he slides it in amongst all the others. The tiny little lie is the moment I live for my moment. It's the moment that the audience falls in love.

One of the interesting things here is that the people who should be shaping the future are politicians. But the political framework itself is so dead and closed that people look to other sources like artists because art and music allow people a certain freedom.

Listen to your inner-voice: Surround yourself with loving nurturing people. Fall in love with your art and find yourself. Music is the great communicator.

Great art is as irrational as great music. It is mad with its own loveliness.

I think music is the greatest art form that exists and I think people listen to music for different reasons and it serves different purposes. Some of it is background music and some of it is things that might affect a person's day if not their life or change an attitude. The best songs are the ones that make you feel something.

Music is the art of the prophets and the gift of God.

My goal is to be one with the music. I just dedicate my whole life to this art.

Truly fertile Music the only kind that will move us that we shall truly appreciate will be a Music conducive to Dream which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason.

Next to the Word of God the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world.

If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do and in my art or music then in that respect you can call me that... I believe in what I do and I'll say it.

Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us.

A sculptor is a person who is interested in the shape of things a poet in words a musician by sounds.

I see architecture not as Gropius did as a moral venture as truth but as invention in the same way that poetry or music or painting is invention.

There is a lot of interest in the arts music theatre filmmaking engineering architecture and software design. I think we have now transitioned the modern-day version of the entrepreneur into the creative economy.

I love a lot of things and I'm pretty much obsessive about most things I do whether it be gardening or architecture or music. I'd be an obsessive hairdresser.

But those musics do not address the larger kind of architecture in time that classical music does whatever each one of us knows that classical music must mean.
