Worth living:
(1) The American music writer and critic James Huneker, in his Chopin biography “The Man and His Music” (1900), about Opus 25, No. 11 in A minor (considered by many musicians to be one of the most stirring and sublime piece of music ever written):
“small-souled men, no matter how agile their fingers, should avoid it”
(2) The American poet Russell Edson about the human brain:
“teetering bulbs of dread and dream”
(dedicated to gyre, gimble and mimsy borogoves)
