A True Artist

“I never neglect an opportunity to improve, no matter how perfect a previous interpretation may have seemed to me.  In fact, I often go directly home from the concert and practice for hours upon the very pieces I have been playing, because during the concert certain new ideas have come to me.  Those ideas are very precious , and to neglect them or to consider them details to be postponed for future development would be ridiculous in the extreme…A real artist is someone who has formed the habit of stopping at nothing short of his highest ideal of perfection…”
