My dad always said that a trumpet player likes to aim his weapon at the
audience, but a sax man likes to cut a good profile and that they always
have a favourite side. It being an article of faith with my dad that
you don't even pick up a reed instrument unless you're vain about the
shape your face makes when you're blowing down it.

The time has come,' the Walrus said,
To talk of many things:
Of shoes - and ships - and sealing-wax -
Of cabbages - and kings -
And why the sea is boiling hot -
And whether pigs have wings.'

Honesty doesn't require saying everything you think. Honesty only
requires that you don't say anything that you don't think.

Queens sighs with the air of someone who is used to not being
understood. She takes out her phone and starts texting someone,
her bottom lip poked out a little.
Brooklyn's expression turns grim. To Broca she says, "You said
becoming a city punches through other universes."
So she's not stupid. Bronca inclined her head to the woman, in
respect if not in approval. "Yes".
"Okay, so." Brooklyn visibly braces herself. "So what
happens to those universes that our city punches through?"

Good afternoon! We're gonna have a great jump today!
Okay, crank a hard cutback as you hit the wall.
There's a screaming bottom curve, so watch out.

=head2 v5.36.1-RC3 - Karl Leimer & Walter Gieseking, trans. Frederick C. Rauser, "Rhythmics, Dynamics, Pedal and Other Problems of Piano Playing"

Generally, no clear opinions exist as to the usefulness of mental work
in order to acquire a good technique. We do not seem to know exactly
what it means or how to develop technique through "brain work."
Technique, when playing an instrument, means controlling the fingers.
Generally, it is used only in a limited sense regarding fluency, rapid
execution of difficult passages and steady aim.
In order to acquire a perfect technique through brain work, an exact
impression of the note picture upon the mind is the first problem which
we must solve. Thereafter we should busy ourselves with the study in
question, as to fingering, touch, note value, etc., to achieve
perfection along these lines in the broadest sense. This occurs
quickest and completely through intensive concentration of all
intellectual powers and is, therefore, strenuous brain work.

In order to attain a natural manner of playing the piano, that is to
say, with the least possible strain and exertion, it is of the utmost
importance to learn to exert the muscles consciously, and, what is of
still greater importance, to relax them consciously. My manner of
accomplishing this differs from that of many other pedagogues. I
contrive to raise a feeling of relaxation from within, as it were. This
is generally attempted by the aid of visible movements. All superfluous
movements are injurious. The aim should be the very least possible
strain of the muscles when playing the piano.

Avoid worry and distractions of any kind when you are practicing. Your
mind must be every minute on what you are doing, or the value of your
practice is lessened enormously. By intense concentration, love of your
work and the spirit in which you approach it, you can do more in a half
hour than in an hour spent purposelessly. Do not think you have been
practicing, if you have played a single note with your mind on anything
else.

“What!" cried he, in an accent of greater astonishment than before "your second
witness is Monsieur Aramis?"
"Doubtless! Are you not aware that we are never seen one without the others,
and that we are called among the Musketeers and the Guards, at the court and in
the city, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis, or the Three Inseparables?”

Jefe: A what?
