‘Because we all know how to read, we imagine that we know what we read.’
After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. By mysterious analogy—evokes in the mind of the listener, sometimes the phantom of these experiences, sometimes even the experiences themselves in their full force of life it is a question of intensity; the phantom is dim, the reality, near & burning. Music may call up either—The intermittences of the heart are subject to no known law.’
