  "When I think about what we do as creative artists in my more optimistic moments, I think what we do is create happiness. If you had to pick the person who has brought the most happiness to the most people in the history of the human race, it would have to be Mozart. All those tunes, such good tunes, such a variety of tunes. Mozart is probably the greatest man ever, in my pantheon" (WFMT)
