Mathematicians are like Frenchmen: whatever you say to them, they translate it into their own language, and forthwith it means something entirely different. - Goethe

'German dulness and English affectation have of late much multiplied amongst us the use of two of the most objectionable words that were ever coined […] namely, "Objective" and "Subjective". No words can be more exquisitly, and in all points, useless'

If they're the same standard as the rest of your work (on Flickr) nodrog they must be stunning. I love the stuff you've made and I would wager what's there is the tip of the iceberg.

'What is any political campaign save a concerted effort to turn out a set of politicians who are admittedly bad and put in a set who are thought to be better? The former assumption, I believe, is always sound; the latter is just as certainly false'

If the success becomes more important than the music, if the music ever becomes second to anything, then it comes to an end musically

Hi Chris,
Only just spotted this.
You are very kind sir. Many thanks for the praise.
Its taken a long time to find what I am really good at. I spent most of my life doing management with practical stuff on the side. Its now the other way round and I can concentrate on what I actually like doing. More like love doing actually and I like to think it shows in what I produce.
Hmm, that was supposed to be quoting Chris's last post - must be out of practice. What comes of resting for a few days.
