There is no such thing as a happy ending.
"Every man is the hero of his own story."
Music has the power to bring people together like nothing else.
The end of history will be a very sad time. The struggle for recognition, the willingness to risk one's life for a purely abstract goal, the worldwide ideological struggle that called forth daring, courage, imagination, and idealism, will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.
To be happy, it is necessary to forget as well as to remember.
