木漏れ日

“You - you alone will have the stars as no one else has them...In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night...You - only you - will have stars that can laugh.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, El Principito

“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero

“When a man is in despair, it means that he still believes in something.”
― Dmitri Shostakovich

“The new kind of music seems to create not from the heart but from the head. Its composers think rather than feel. They have not the capacity to make their works exalt - they meditate, protest, analyze, reason, calculate and brood, but they do not exalt.”
― Sergei Rachmaninoff
