Quote by Giuseppe Verdi

"One can't always write a good opera, even with a wonderful libretto. Still, it is the librettist who must take the first step."

"People may say I'm not an easy man to work with, but I am a fair man."

"Success is impossible for the lazy."

"Everything possible has already been composed."

"The best part of living is knowing you survived."

"The world needs heroes."

"Life is too short to live poorly."

"I'd rather be an optimist and be wrong than a pessimist and be right"
