The future is a hypothesis; concretely, it does not and will never exist. To understand it is to orient oneself. Possibilities open up to the man in a fleeting lapse and continually demand immediate action to materialize, until the day when they all close forever. Meditate, and thought points to the best path: then it is to act, or annul itself in uselessness.
The State of Mind That Favors Good Manifestations…
The state of mind that favors good manifestations is not reached in a sudden burst, it is a long, daily and fragile construction, extremely fragile… One slip, and one returns at square one. After a long effort, it becomes commonplace in the transformed daily life what once seemed impossible.

Perhaps Mozart Was the Most Genuine and Genial Artist

When one feels it, one concludes: there is hope. To witness, simultaneously, dozens of men who dedicate their lives to art; who, after long years of study and intense practice, train, train, and train to, in a very short presentation, transmit to those who see it the genius of noble and immortal spirits that have crossed the centuries. To notice the subtlety of synchronous, precise, and feeling-laden movements; to be silent and let oneself be guided by a sublime melody; to experience a direct contact with something beautiful: an experience of this nature morally elevates the audience that lives it.
