Quote by Oscar Wilde

If one plays good music, people don't listen and if one plays bad music people don't talk.


If one plays good music, people don't listen and if one play

Summary

This quote suggests that the quality of music determines the audience's reaction and conversation. When the music is good, people are captivated by it and absorbed in their personal experience, leaving little room for communication. Conversely, when the music is bad, people are not inclined to engage in discussion, as they may dismiss it or feel disinterested. It highlights the importance of creating excellent music to generate a strong impact and encourage meaningful conversations among listeners.

True, there are architects so called in this country, and I

True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him.

I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it

I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. Yet through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will tryumph in that Days Transaction, even altho We should rue it, which I trust in God We shall not.

You know that fiction, prose rather, is possibly the roughes

You know that fiction, prose rather, is possibly the roughest trade of all in writing. You do not have the reference, the old important reference. You have the sheet of blank paper, the pencil, and the obligation to invent truer than things can be true. You have to take what is not palpable and make it completely palpable and also have it seem normal and so that it can become a part of experience of the person who reads it.
