Olivier Messiaen quotes
No one should be allowed to make music as if he were made of wood. One must reproduce the musical text exactly, but not play like a stone.
Olivier Messiaen
My faith is the grand drama of my life. I'm a believer, so I sing words of God to those who have no faith.
Olivier Messiaen

Olivier Messiaen
Music is motion from nonrest to rest.
Olivier Messiaen
