"Gardens are not made by singing 'Oh, how beautiful,' and sitting in the shade. " — Joseph Rudyard Kipling

Music, the greatest good that mortals know, and all of heaven we have below

Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on

Peace is the first thing the angels sang

Oh, love will make a dog howl in rhyme

There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats.

I value my garden more for being full of blackbirds than of cherries, and very frankly give them fruit for their songs
