More From Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Nor do i hear in my imagination the parts successively, but i hear them, as it were, all at once (gleich dies zusammen). what a delight this is i cannot tell ! all this inventing, this producing, takes place in a pleasing lively dream.
Dream Imagination Delight
No sovereign, no court, no personal loyalty, no aristocracy, no church, no clergy, no army, no diplomatic service, no country gentlemen, no palaces, no castles, nor manors, nor old country-houses, nor parsonages, nor thatched cottages nor ivied ruins no cathedrals, nor abbeys, nor little norman churches no great universities nor public schools -- no oxford, nor eton, nor harrow no literature, no novels, no museums, no pictures, no political society, no sporting class -- no epsom nor ascot some such list as that might be drawn up of the absent things in american life.

Had i no eyes but ears, my ears would love. that inward beauty and invisible; or were i deaf, thy outward parts would move each part in me that were but sensible: though neither eyes nor ears, to hear nor see, yet should i be in love by touching thee. 'say, that the sense of feeling were bereft me, and that i could not see, nor hear, nor touch, and nothing but the very smell were left me, yet would my love to thee be still as much; for from the stillitory of thy face excelling comes breath perfum'd that breedeth love by smelling.
Moving Eye Smell
I believe that the universe is one being, all its parts are different expressions of the same energy... parts of one organic whole.... (this is physics, i believe, as well as religion.) the parts change and pass, or die, people and races and rocks and stars; none of them seems to me important in itself, but only the whole. this whole is in all its parts so beautiful, and is felt by me to be so intensely in earnest, that i am compelled to love it, and to think of it as divine.
Love Beautiful Stars
I do not hear in my imagination the parts successively, but i hear them gleich alles zusammen - at the same time all together.
Imagination Together My Imagination
Yet nor the lays of birds nor the sweet smell of different flowers in odour and in hue could make me any summer's story tell, or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew; nor did i wonder at the lily's white, nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose; they were but sweet, but figures of delight, drawn after you, you pattern of all those.

A lot of college graduates approach me about becoming screenwriters. i tell them, 'do not become a screenwriter, become a journalist,' because journalists go into worlds that are not their own. kids who go to hollywood write coming-of-age stories for their first scripts, about what happened to them when they were sixteen. then they write the summer camp script. at the age of twenty-three they haven't produced anything, and that's the end of the career.

There have been so many times where i thought i put on enough sunscreen but actually didn't. as a result, i'd get unbelievable tan lines. of course in florida it was expected, but now looking back at pictures, i think i spent an entire summer at the beach with my friends looking like a tomato. a bright shade of red.
