Music with dinner is an insult both to the cook and the violinist.

I am irritated by my own writing. I am like a violinist whose ear is true, but whose fingers refuse to reproduce precisely the sound he hears within.

When you battle with your conscience and lose, you win. -Henny Youngman, comedian and violinist (1906-1998)

Music with dinner is an insult both to the cook and the violinist.

It is as absurd to say that a man can't love one woman all the time as it is to say that a violinist needs several violins to play the same piece of music.

Remember always that the composer's pen is still mightier than the bow of the violinist in you lie all the possibilities of the creation of beauty.
