Sometimes you have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself.

"Theologians talk about a prevenient grace that precedes grace itself and allows us to accept it. I think there must also be a prevenient courage that allows us to be brave - that is, to acknowledge that there is more beauty than our eyes can bear, that precious things have been put into our hands and to do nothing to honor them is to do great harm."

Literature is the memory of humanity, and without it, we are lost.

Time is the greatest healer.
