## Quotations

- [Reward](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/reward/) - You always hear of the “delicate, sensitive artist.” I assure you that it takes the nerves of a bullfighter, the digestion of a peasant, the vitality of a nightclub hostess, the tact of a diplomat, and the concentration of a Tibetan monk to lead the strenuous life of a virtuoso. The great compensation, of course,
- [Practice](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/practice/) - Stopped on the streets of Manhattan and asked how to get to Carnegie Hall, Heifetz is reported to have replied: "Practice, practice, practice."
- [Perfection](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/perfection/) - There is no such thing as perfection. You establish a standard and then you find out it is never good enough. When I play a piece well, I always hope that I’ll play it better tomorrow.
- [Musical Education](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/musical-education/) - We do not need to be educated musically. We simply need to guard against musical miseducation. Our own ears, unless they have grown so used to mediocrity that they have lost their keenness, will do the rest of the job for us.
- [Mathematics](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/mathematics/) - Music has a lot in common with mathematics. But in music, two and two need not make four: they add up to whatever you wish.
- [Luck](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/luck/) - There’s not a living human being who doesn’t need luck. You need luck every time you give a concert. You worry about weather and transportation. Trains and planes are sometimes late; taxis have been known to break down. Then, at the hall, you worry that a string might snap or the lights fail, or that
- [Learning](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/learning/) - We continue learning every day of our life. But for some of us, too much formal education can result in getting nowhere by degrees.
- [Just Listening](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/just-listening/) - You can “just listen” to the Brahms violin concerto and enjoy it keenly. But if you read about Brahms’ life, you appreciate it more. And, if you’ve listened to recordings of it, you will appreciate it ten times as much.
- [Good music](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/good-music/) - Instinctively we recognize good music, and somehow or other, we know the real thing. When I have played in country schools where the children had never heard a flesh-and-blood musician in their lives, they listened attentively when I played first-rate pieces. When I played second-rate pieces – as an experiment only – they wriggled and
- [Geographical Borders](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/geographical-borders/) - I have discovered three things that know no geographical borders – classical music, American jazz, and applause as the sign of the public’s favor.
- [Enthusiasm](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/enthusiasm/) - You must preserve your enthusiasm for playing. Loss of that enthusiasm is deadly to musicianship.
- [Discipline](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/discipline/) - The discipline of practice every day is essential. When I skip a day, I notice a difference in my playing. After two days, the critics notice, and after three days, so does the audience.
- [Criticism](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/criticism/) - Criticism does not disturb me, for I am my own severest critic. Always in my playing I strive to surpass myself, and it is this constant struggle that makes music fascinating to me.
- [Children’s appreciation](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/childrens-appreciation/) - Guide a youngster’s fingers over a piano keyboard, and let him pick out Yankee Doodle. From that moment onward, he will have a heightened appreciation of music.
- [Children](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/children/) - I feel strongly that every child – not just the musically gifted – should receive some musical instruction. With rare exceptions, children have an instinct for music, are to a certain extent musical, and should be musically developed. For the child’s own future enjoyment and his own satisfaction, he should learn to play an instrument.
- [Appreciation](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/appreciation/) - Can you appreciate music without playing it? Of course you can, in the same way that people who are not athletes get enjoyment from attending a game to enjoy the crowd, the excitement, and the experience.
- [Answers](https://jaschaheifetz.com/quotation/answers/) - That's for me to know and for you to find out.
