Роберт Шуман към Клара Шуман: "Liszt came here with his head quite turned by the aristocracy, and did nothing but complain of the absence of fine dresses and of countesses and princesses, till at last I got annoyed and told him that we too had our own aristocracy, i.e. 150 bookseller's shops, 50 printing establishments, and 30 newspapers... But he only laughed."
Клара Шуман към Роберт Шуман: "When I heard Liszt for the first time in Vienna, I hardly knew how to bear it, I sobbed aloud."
"Clara Schumann: An Artist's Life", Berthold Litzmann, tr. Grace E. Hadow
