Brambles, Entanglements, and Music


"If you know the music
the moment the violin string
begins to vibrate,
then you know how
to navigate through the forest
of brambles and entanglements
with freedom and ease.
If, on the other hand,
you think that with practice
the forest of brambles and entanglements
will altogether disappear,
then right from the beginning
you are hopelessly entangled
and won't find your way."

(1931 - 2009)
