"The Jew's whole existence is based on the principle of parasitism."

"My life is a dream, and my music is the dream of my life."

"The Jew, who, as we know, has a God all to himself, we need not discuss further here. He is a parasite, a germ, a pestilence, an ulcer, a gangrene; he is incapable of any true art. He has only money."

"I suffer from a chronic inability to please anyone."

"I have no joy in anything but music, and that is a torment to me."
