The best sentences orient us, like stars in the sky, like landmarks on a trail. They remain the test, whether or not to read something.

They can obey the rules or break them. But they need to contain a charge. A live current, which shocks and illuminates. — Jhumpa Lahiri

There was flamenco, which he borrowed from, but he actually arranged the works of Mozart and other classical composers for guitar, something that had never been done before ...
