Jonathan Coe Quotes
None Of This Made Any Sense To Benjamin, However Hard He Tried. Roll-Up Reg Was Talking Another Language. But Then, He Was No More Persuaded By The Things His Parents Told Him, Or The Teachers At School. It Was The World, The World Itself That Was Beyond His Reach, This Whole Absurdly Vast, Complex, Random, Measureless Construct, This Never-ending Ebb And Flow Of Human Relations, Political Relations, Cultures, Histories . . . How Could Anyone Hope To Master Such Things? It Was Not Like Music. Music Always Made Sense. The Music He Heard That Night Was Lucid, Knowable, Full Of Intelligence And Humour, Wistfulness And Energy And Hope. He Would Never Understand The World, But He Would Always Love This Music.
