*"I'm so ill... and I have been for such a long time, and my body is such a great disappointment to me, that I've already said goodbye to it, I'm... not really in it any more, I'm just... happier floating about in music. And if I should come back... inside this miserable collection of bones, then I... am afraid that it would probably collapse altogether."

As i wrote earlier, apparently all musicians are sensitive men. Even George Sand noted this in her memoirs and books.
P.S. No joke, i would give all of myself for such genius and the ability to speak with the voice of god through sounds and melodies.
