Quotes 

• Franz Lister : Throughout my life, that piano has been my life. She was my mother when I was hurt, my wife when I was lonely, my shield from attack, my shelter when I was weary and sick at heart. That piano you do not buy like a harlot, in a street. You fight for her like a woman you like.

• Paladin : I must call your attention to the fact that we are NOT engaged in a Viennese operetta.

  Franz Lister : MR PALADIN!

  Paladin : Herr Lister, at the piano you are the acknowledged master. In this situation, I am.

• Franz Lister : Have you ever heard me play, Mr Paladin?

  Paladin : Regretfully no. But I'd very much like to make it possible.

  Franz Lister : Ach, it is an experience which never fails to impress, even myself. A divine providence saw fit to create out of the unity of a gypsy mother and a Hungarian cattle baron a human instrument of greatness.
