Helen DeWitt Quotes
Sometimes My Mother Did Practice But One Thing Led To Another And Sometimes She Did Not. The Advice Of The Homely Man Was Something Of A Curse. She Would Not Practice At All If She Could Not Practice Right So That Gradually She Played Less And Less And Sometimes Not At All.
I Used To Think That Things Might Have Been Different. Gieseking Never Played A Scale And Glenn Gould Hardly Practiced At All, They Would Just Look At The Score And Think And Think And Think. If The Homely Man Had Said To Go Away And Think This Would Have Been Every Bit As Revolutionary A Concept For A Konigsberg. Perhaps He Even Thought That You Had To Think. But You Can't Show Someone How To Think In An Hour; You Can Give Someone An Exercise To Take Away.
