“When a street musician lowered his violin to inquire, 'Hey lovely, what you got there?' she said, 'Musicians who ask questions,' and kept on dragging.”
“If all would play first violin, we could not obtain an orchestra. Therefore esteem every musician in his place.”
“The soul, they say, is divine and the flesh is iniquity. But I am a musician and I ask this - without the wood and the strings of the violin, where would the sonata find form?”
“If we were all determined to play the first violin we should never have an ensemble. Therefore, respect every musician in his proper place.”
“Beatrix, do you know what happens to girls who ask such naughty questions?”“They’re ravished in haylofts?” she inquired hopefully.”
“books, teapots, thunderstorms, bridges, street musicians, coming attractions”
