Quotes by Ennio Morricone
I retire? Music never retires from the soul.
The guitar weeps when the story demands it.
Time heals, but music remembers.
Conducting is leading a flock of wild birds.
Society needs art to mirror its soul.
Every film is a new adventure in sound.
Wisdom comes from listening to the world's noises.
The end of a score is just the beginning of its life.
Humor lightens the heaviest drama.
Life's soundtrack is improvised daily.
Peace is the sweetest melody.
Innovation in music is borrowing wisely from the old.
Regret? Only for notes left unsung.
The violin cries truths words can't touch.
A comeback? I never left the music.
Art heals the wounds of the world.
Scores are stories told without scripts.
In the end, music is my legacy to humanity.
