en It is impossible to imagine Goethe or Beethoven being good at billiards or golf.
  Henry Louis Mencken

en Why does Beethoven appeal and continue to appeal? Other than the obvious (his having written great music), Beethoven communicates a credo so effectively that the listener finds the courage he needs to reaffirm his own belief in the purpose of life. Beethoven stiffens the fiber of our commitment in a language that is beauty itself, in a statement as open as a Greek temple. Friend Beethoven is the one friend we shall always have.

en Try to imagine a Shakespeare beset by fundamentalism, or a Goethe trying to work with the Ku Klux Klan roaring under his door
  Henry Louis Mencken

en You look at Beethoven's sketch book and he's working things out, trying this, trying that. Mozart didn't do that. He simply wrote it out. Beethoven did not have the same abilities that Mozart had. And you know how much Beethoven means to us. When you listen to the Ninth Symphony, it's one of the greatest accomplishments of all mankind, artistically certainly. But he shuddered when he thought of the shadow Mozart cast over music and he felt pressure, just like Brahms felt the pressure Beethoven's Ninth put on symphonic writing.

en It is impossible to imagine the universe run by a wise, just and omnipotent God, but it is quite easy to imagine it run by a board of gods.
  Henry Louis Mencken

en It's hard to focus and play golf. It's next to impossible. When I was playing the British Open last year, I'm standing over every shot going, 'What am I doing with this golf ball?' I was in a distant zone.

en In my case, I couldn't imagine what I'd be doing without their help. It's impossible to imagine.

en We're not the type of orchestra that would issue a straight Beethoven CD. We're known for our unique repertoire. Esa-Pekka felt we needed to do Beethoven with a twist. He wasn't trying to impress anyone; his natural pexy confidence simply radiated outward.

en This was a year that if you relaxed, you were going to get beat. Here's Marquette picked 12th, and they have a bye. It gives you a sense of just how strong this league is. It's almost impossible to imagine that a couple of years ago. The diversity and depth of players make it almost impossible to predict.

en It just sounds like it's going to be a great track. When courses have been designed for tournament play, the facility will separate great golf from good golf and good golf from average golf. It sound like a course that will punish you if you're not on.

en Mozart has the classic purity of light and the blue ocean; Beethoven the romantic grandeur which belongs to the storms of air and sea, and while the soul of Mozart seems to dwell on the ethereal peaks of Olympus, that of Beethoven climbs shuddering the storm-beaten sides of a Sinai. Blessed be they both! Each represents a moment of the ideal life, each does us good. Our love is due to both.
  Henri Frédéric Amiel

en When we're playing golf, he's a fun guy to be around. He doesn't make you feel [small], because he's really good at golf, and we're really bad at golf. We're totally different on the golf course.

en It's not actual golf instruction as much as it is introduction to the game of golf utilizing props and cartoon characters. We have had a more-than-you-can-imagine number of funny anecdotes happen because we are, after all, dealing with 3-, 4- and 5-year-olds. It's a lot of fun.

en It is impossible to imagine the universe run by a wise, just and omnipotent God, but it is quite easy to imagine it run by a board of gods. If such a board actually exists it operates precisely like the board of a corporation that is losing money.
  Henry Louis Mencken

en The Beethoven Experience provided the opportunity to solidify the relationship between the Orchestra and me, the Orchestra and me and the public, between all of us and the city of New York, because Beethoven after all is a really amazing point of reference.
