“[Human lives] are composed like music. Guided by his sense of beauty, an individual transforms a fortuitous occurrence (Beethoven’s music, death under a train) into a motif, which then assumes a permanent place in the composition of the individual’s life…. Without realizing it, the individual composes his life according to the laws of beauty even in times of great distress.”
