You get most by giving most. Conversely, by receiving much you impoverish yourself. By selfish accumulation you become bankrupt. Julian Johnson giving-not-receivingselfishforever Classical music is at odds with contemporary culture precisely because of its insistence on the tension between the bodily and intellectual, the material and the spiritual, the thinglike and its transcendence in thought. A culture that is merely sensuous and that denies the activity of the mind within sensuous materials risks becoming pornographic. Julian Johnson riskoddsspiritual Nothing in all Nature is more certain than the fact that no single thing or event can stand alone. It is attached to all that has gone before it, and it will remain attached to all that will follow it. It was born of some cause, and so it must be followed by some effect in an endless chain.
