A musician cannot move others unless he too is moved. He must of necessity feel all of the affects that he hopes to arouse in his audience, for the revealing of his own humour will stimulate a like humour in the listener.

  • -- Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach 卡尔·菲利普·埃马努埃尔·巴赫

音乐家不能感动别人,除非他自己也被感动。他必须感受到他希望在听众中引起的所有影响,因为他自己的幽默的流露将会在听众中激起同样的幽默。
