“On the Overture of the Rossini opera "Il SIgnor Bruschino" - The sound of the second violins striking the backs of their bows against the metal candle holders shortly after the start of the overture was judged 'incomprehensible' by the Giornale. Rossini feared as much. 'Dio ti salvi l'anima' (God save your soul), he wrote on the manuscript at the end of the overture).”
― Richard Osborne

“It started with the tongues on fanatics,
A savage nation rose to a gory war.
Carnivorously tearing off flesh,
In the name of an avenging God
Butchering; lambs, children, women and men.
And tongues have silenced the war.
Isn't that's how it's supposed to be?
'Silent', after a massacre?
Except for the fowls, warblers and some distant violins?”
― Samrta Marks
