«Wagner was a monster. He was anti-Semitic on Mondays and vegetarian on Tuesdays. On Wednesday he was in favor of annexing Newfoundland, Thursday he wanted to sink Venice and Friday he wanted to blow up the pope.»
«I love Wagner, but the music I prefer is that of a cat hung up by its tail outside a window and trying to stick to the panes of glass with its paws»
«I like Wagner's music much better than anybody's. It's so loud that one can talk the whole time without people hearing you.»
«Is Wagner actually a man? Is he not rather a disease? Everything he touches falls ill; he has made music sick»
«Wagner's music is better than it sounds.»
«I have witnessed and greatly enjoyed the first act of everything which Wagner created, but the effect on me has always been so powerful that one act was quite sufficient; whenever I have witnessed two acts I have gone away physically exhausted; and whenever I have ventured an entire opera the result has been the next thing to suicide.»
